| cant w8 for next episode!!!;) |
 |
| Really cool episode! I like that Tsukishima is really manipulative and really knows how to mess with Ichigo. Rather than just threatening friends and family, he's putting them right in the middle of everything and that really pushes Ichigo into a corner that he can't get out of because there's no way he would harm his friends and family. This arc in the manga went extremely fast, I like that they're adding some details and better explanations to everything. |
| Pretty good episode, I got to say. They handled this scene beautifully, great music and everything. |
| I loled at the scenes where Tsukishima was there during hardcore fights where he would be completely useless. |

Jouten said: The added scenes are definitely making it flow alot better then it did in the manga. Am I the only one who feels like they're just dragging it out so they don't catch up to the manga as fast? >.> But they did do a good job, i'll give 'em that, it's flows pretty well, and Ichigo's internal chaos is illustrated quite nicely, (though I can always do with more chaos!! >:D ) but on another note, why didn't anyone notice the huge, western-style building that popped up in the woods? =.= lol |
A pinky-promise ain't something you take lightly -- Sakata Gintoki GINTAMA... I'LL BE WAITING FOR YOUR LEVELED-UP RETURN!!!! I'M WAITING FOR YOU... KINTAMA!!!!!?!! For the rest of you waiting with me... GO READ GINTAMA NOW!! (start at 372 where the anime left off) And everyone else, GO WATCH GINTAMA!! IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!!! |
| This episode and the previous one are the only episodes I've really enjoyed for quite some time. These mind games / mind alterations are far more interesting and emotional than the mindless fighting in the last 100 episodes or so. |
x-ShoutOut-x said: nah i was dying when i saw that each time it showed him somewhere i would just say *Insert Random ass Tsukishima here!*,i feel as though the flow of this arc is better then the mangaSo... Am I the only one who DIED when I saw Tsukishima and his 'copy' 'paste' moments in those memories? XD I mean.. Everyone's standing there, looking as cool as ever, and there's Tsukishima... Reading a book. Oh and that scene where Ichigo was fighting Aizen, NO ONE was there to see that, other than Ichigo. [ Am I right? ] SO HOW did Tsukishima get in there? XDDD |
 |
| I wonder if this will be the final arc in the anime. It is like the shortest arc in the anime and the next one is going to be like the same size as aizen's arc and we all know that took up the majority of the series. They could very well make a 2nd adaptation of bleach. Since the final arc is going to go in a completely different and new direction. |

| Aizen would have killed that bastard Tsukishima with one swing. |

AnimeFtw1 said: I want Bankai back. And what the hell happened to Kon? +, his father is acting all mysterious. You know I don't think anyone noticed he was missing at all. He's just such a shitty character I think it would be best to scrap him. It'd be nice if they did that actually. |
| "Ogon’ po gotovnosti!" |
| i must say i really liked this ep, its finally starting to have some action.. cant wait to see next things animated ^_^ Face-Paint said: Am I the only one who feels like they're just dragging it out so they don't catch up to the manga as fast? >.> well manga being on hiatus for 3 weeks, that is quite possible.. |
| It's starting to get interesting again, now that Ichigo has some powers.. |

| Damn, I'm seriously loving how great these parts of the arc are being animated, been done really well. Tsukishima being in all the events that everyone has been through so far, those scenes were made pacing flow quite nicely. What I really loved was the fight in this episode. Ichigo used his Fullbring and his 'shunpo' was so fast, reminded of his Bankai speed and how he fought Byakuya. Also the OST that played when they were fighting, so epic. Fullbring Arc Anime > Fullbring Manga imo. Actually liking Fullbring Arc more than I had in the manga. |
 |
| i was laughing so much when they were showing the past with Tsukishima, it was so random and it felt like he was a photobomber, but an anime version. the omake was really good too |
     |
| Awesome! Maybe now ichigo can kill everyone along with tsukishima. I found most of the supporting cast up to now quite annoying. bleach seriously needs a reboot with all new supporting cast to be fresh.. out with the old and in with the new I say. KILL, KILL THEM ALL!!!!!!!!! except maybe yuzu. Ok i think i stop now and take my medication. Jokes aside, was a pretty good ep. Loved how ichigo reaction from everything. he can be so serious and his face expressions are just lol. |

link9us said: Well, let's just hope it doesn't really come to that right now...If Bleach goes away suddenly like Katekyo Hitman Reborn, the anime world might be in an uproar.I wonder if this will be the final arc in the anime.

Xtc said: Wow Ichigo is even stronger than he was a soul reaper. Ichigo might have kill his own friends to kill Tsukishima. what, no way, he's strong, but I highly doubt he was stronger than when he was a soul reaper, the whole point of this process is to get his powers back, which in turn, when he does, he'll keep his current powers, and add on to his soul reaper powers. So no, he isn't stronger than before, but he will be when he gets his old powers back. |
| I'll have to follow the anime more close than I did the manga since I got a bit lost with who the antagonist really was in that. |
 |
| somehow this arc is more tolerable than it was in the manga. still rather bad. better off just watching though, less wait and bore than plodding through the manga. |
 |
| It's a little weird to see Ichigo with a normal sized sword! |
| Gotta love Trollscihima. |
 |
x-ShoutOut-x said: , Oh and that scene where Ichigo was fighting Aizen, NO ONE was there to see that, other than Ichigo. [ Am I right? ] SO HOW did Tsukishima get in there? XDDD Then that would mean he was actually there now wouldn't it... didn't you see him... over by the rock? Ichigo is obviously the one with the memory troubles. Lol Seriously though, it was so funny how Tsukishima was inserted in all those scenes unscathed and reading a book while everyone else is completely into the moments. |
  Thanks to Iri for the awesome Signature!! ^^ |
| It was hard for me to buy this story, sadly the Omake was even better |

Jouten said: THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Wow, Ichigo has to fight against his own friends to get to Tsukishima, things are getting intense now! Really love how they are animating these scenes! Abs agreed! I still wonder what Urahara and Ichigo's father were doing and I cant wait to see Rukia appearing again. The episdoe was great as usual, I've wanted to see this kind of battle for a long time. 5/5 |
 |
| The intro and the initial recap took a full 5 minutes. That is over 20% of the episode. You also have think of the ending credits at a full minute and a half. That is 6.5 minutes of 24 minutes worth of original content. Over 3/4 of this episode was a repeat and this isn't out of the ordinary. That being said, I think the parts with Ichigo going insane were too drawn out and predictable, but the fight redeemed this episode. What got me in to Bleach to begin with was the intense music and the fight scenes where Ichiigo showcases new power. This episode definitely delivered.  |
| Really interesting and definitely some of the better episodes since the end of Aizen. |
 |
| Seriously, WTF. Tsukishima is the biggest troll in anime history for putting himself in all those epic flashback moments LoL. "We only defeated Aizen because of....... TSUKISHIMA!" If Aizen ever heard Chado say that... Oh man. So much anxiety because of everyone turning on Ichigo. DIE TSUKITROLL! Ichigo's fight was pretty flashy though, I hope to see more. If only that attack was a Getsuga Tenshou; it would of ended there and then. |
 |
| I laughed at him being in all the flashbacks. I love this arc a lot. I also like Ichigo's new powers but dislike his new outfit. |
| When Bleach is good, it can be real good. Its a shame those moments were too few and far between. |
 |
| LMAO! Tsukishima was there for everything. |
| 5 minutes worth of OP + intro? Oh, Bleach. |
| This episode was so good! Man, I never expected the new episodes t obe as good, really! It really immersed me enormously, to the point where the last minutes made me feel empathic melancholy. I love how Bleach never really declined, for so much time, to the very end. |
  |
| I thought the pronounciation of "Dirty Boots" was bad. "Book of the End" is pronounced even worse! |
 |
| Book of the End has really a dreadful ability... I'm wondering what will happen now. :f |
| Ichigo should have went straight to Urahara, and yes I do know that he thinks that he's their "enemy." But really? How many times has Urahara helped him out or had been there for him? Oh wells. This is probably one of my favorite arcs. The fight scenes are awesome, the music is awesome, just awesome in general. |
| Ichigo is damn strong but now that all his friends have turned against him I do wonder what he'll do next! |
 |
| ......... Tsukishima is such a mind rapist |
| AMAZING! I am loving this!!!! Mr.Tsukishima is so good he even has me convinced he was there for all of those events. Mr.Tsukishima is so good he has me convinced he has been with me my whole life, for every event! What a good friend he is to me! |
conan4 said: I laughed my ass off when Chad was saying that things about Tsukishima, it was hilarious seeing him everywhere :D:D Lol I thought I am the only one who thought that it was funny, funny @ how stupid these characters are. Can Tsukishima really alter, or rather insert his own presence into someone with just a slash? Those are the memories of the past years, at least 2-3 years, one slash, and that's all? He couldn't have added some details in, right? Like how he gave them advices, how he helped them defeat the big boss, how strong he actually is, and so on.. That's just too much. Edit: It's funny how they actually think Tsukishima could offer some help against Aizen, I mean, it's Aizen ffs. And I noticed Tsukishima really never aim to cut Ichigo (alter his memories), I wonder why, he had a lot of chance. |

| laugheable |
 Behold of my awesomeness~ controversial and/or sensitive topics likely devolve into the same repetitive, derogatory, abusive, and harassing comments can no longer be posted. But my feels. |
| Great episode,at first this arc was boring for me,but now can't wait for the next episode. |
  |
| Ichigo is very strong now... |
| when i was reading the manga it was heart wrenching watching Ichigo like this. That is why i hated Tsukishima with a passion. |
 |
| Damn this episode was intense, Ichigo fighting Tsukishima and almost cutting his arm off, but now Chad and Orihime is on Tsukishima's side. Everyone is brainwashed except for Ginjo, Uryu, and Ichigo. I can definitely tell this anime is going to have a great ending. Can't wait until next episode in dub! |
