Just why does Ichigo levitates in the air?
That doesn't make any sense. They are just aiming to produce cheaper episodes.

Great episode. I'm with everyone looking forward to next week. The soul reapers/shinigami were shown in the episode preview so I'm not sure talking about that is truly a spoiler. LOL at Ginjo's troll face

Ah Ginjo being the badguy, such a troll moment. This was just as epic in the anime as it was in the manga.

Tsukishima purposely didn't turn him, which you will find out the reason for next episode. Tsukishima can do the cut that hurts and actually cuts a person, or he can do a cut that doesn't hurt the person and inserts himself in their past. As you saw earlier in the season, Ishida got cut and hurt.

Well I didn't expect something like THAT in Bleach. It's BLEACH lol all about "fight lose train fight lose train" but making Ginjo a bad guy w/ troll face was cool. Tbh I can't wait for next episode. Plus I wonder what's up with his father and the Soul reapers.
Fullbring <<<<<<<< Soul powers.

First part of the episode sucked so much ass for me.
omg Ichigo can't do anything and his retard friends are protecting tsukishime, whos hiding behind his retard friends being a douche using cheap tactics.
OMg the aprentice dude has some lame jackpot ability that seems like all he does is falcon punch
omg the other 4 fullbrings really don't do anything at all if they can't beat ginjo 4v1

OMG only good part seeing Ichigo get wtf stabbed by Ginjo and watching Uruyu getting slashed right after. Plot climax at the end carried this episode from complete crap to a watchable status. Damn they make this stuff move slow, am I watching DBZ again or is that just me?
Also seeing shinigami again gives me hope....but plz don't let Rukia be a main character again.... plz

Where's hollow Ichigo when you need him? I wouldn't mind if he went all Tauros like he did when fighting that emo espada, he was a beast.

As a nonmanga reader, I was really impressed with the episode, i wouldn't have ever guessed this turn of events....and the way Ichigo looked when Chad and Orihime were protecting the enemy was epic. I understand personally how it feels when you're best friends turn against you for a false accusation o reason. I can't wait for the next episode.

On a side note, I heard that bleach the manga, AND the anime is suppose to end soon...can anyone explain to me if this true? will the anime finish before the manga? I hope not I love bleach and don't want it to end.

The episode itself was just very well done, but by the end...HOLY CRAP! I'm reading the manga and I was still reacting like I was seeing everything for the first time!

Love it, love it, love it. And now I'm sad that I have to wait a week for the next one T_T

Now that's what I'm talking about. Seems like the Fullbring Arc is so much better in the Anime than the Manga. The recap was pretty long, felt like a Katekyo Hitman Reborn episode, lol. :P However, Ichigo getting trolled by Ginjo, Ishida came to 'intervene' only to fail and Tsukishima just trolling from the sides, all were too awesome. XD Ginjo's troll face when Ishida said 'The person who cut me is standing behind you!' to Ichigo was absolute WIN lmao.

Next week's episode is gonna be so fucking epic, fuck yeah. Been waiting for this episode since I read that part in the manga. Going to actually stay up and download Bleach for once.

I too can't wait... We will see shinigamis after a long time... Or at least I think so, since preview showed us that...

And when I said not to drop this show I got laughed at...

Not a mangareader so this came as a total surprise for me. Bleach used the "Show the event, but only imply what happened." Ishida was chasing Tsukishima and Tsukishima clearly went past him, but clearly Ginjo jumped out of nowhere to cut him. I had that little nagging feeling about Ginjo: How it didn't really make sense to get rid of your super powers and that you need a shinigami thats lost his powers to get rid of your own. But i liked the guy so i didn't suspect him as much.

The next episode's preview promises epicness. Fingers crossed!

It was always clear for me that Tsukishima didn't turn Ishida, after all, Ishida was cut like one would expect, and the others were not, why make it so extremly different if it's supposed to be the same? Ergo, it was not the past altering strike, but a normal one.

Doesn't change that Ishida literally tried to make Ichigo believe he turned, appearing suddenly, getting his bow ready, pokerface and sunglasses and only explaining when it's too late.

I liked some of the fighting, like when Ichigo kicked Tsukishima when he taunted him, or that Ichigo attacked the moment Tsukishima was distracted (he looked away the scene before, unfortunately they did not really use this, and made him look back to Ichigo like nothing happend right when he started. Though his screaming didn't help keeping Tsukishima distracted i guess..).

I wonder though, why are Chad and Inoue protecting Tsukishima? I mean, they never did for Ichigo. At least, they never managed. They always failed to do so, like Ishida did here. Especially Inoue. Her using her abilities was to be expected, but moving herself into the way of Ichigo's attack? She usually would stand rooted at some place until the fight was over.

Anyways, looking forward for the Shinigami springing into action. They had enough time off screen now, and they hopefully also ofter a good explanation why they didn't do something earlier. Just because Fullbring isn't Hollow shouldn't mean they can ignore when someone is using such powers.
Well, seeing they usually fail at hunting Hollows, too, and the messed up stuff regarding Hell and who's responsible etc. in the last movie, i wouldn't be surprise if they actually are reasoning like this and the rescue mission is either outright against the captain-commanders orders, or he's turning a blind eye because it's about Ichigo and/or in their "free" time.

Just caught up, great cliff hanger.

Still slightly confused about Ginjo's true alliance, throughout the arc we saw his thoughts & actions that seemed good.. why would he think 'I have to save ichigo' (No ones reading his mind)

On a side note: it really irritates me when characters are counter productive.. eg. Ishida not making his intentions clear at the start / Ichigo not giving his friends the idea that the bad guy can control memory's (Can they not even hear the bad guy talking??!)

Bleach manga is entering its final arc. However, we don't know how long the arc will last. It might last a few years like the arrancar arc. If so, expect lots of filler :P

It was explained by Ginjo at the end of the episode. He had Tsukishima cut him once to make him believe he was really trying to help Ichigo, and after he got cut again, his original evil intended memories came back.

That was a pretty awesomesauce episode though. Although I forgot to watch it last week. Lawlz. Bleach marathon with ep. 361 though! :D <3

Well, Bleach is going OKAY. I'm not gonna say that I love it but I'm not gonna say that I hate it either. It's alright. I like the execution better than the manga though. Monologues are better and fighting is more clear. So yup, it's alright.

I knew it! I didn't trust Ginjo from the start, and I'm pretty sure there was even a scene earlier where they showed a pair of legs in front of Tsukishima and it was the same pants that Ginjo wears. I also thought the soul badge was Ginjos too, since it was in his bag and all. He was just too shady.

I'm still concerned as to why Tsukishima was living with that guy though, like really, who is he. And why would he ever think Tsukishima would mention him to others as being adorable.... >.>

Anyway, Byakuya! And other SS People showing up in the next epi it seems.
I really like this arc cause it took a step back and showed the casts normal day to day lives. It was just nice to see them back in school setting and how they interact with their friends and stuff. And I liked the suspense/ thriller hints too.

Thanks to Iri for the awesome Signature!! ^^

I find it amusing on how much this parallels Aizen situation.

In his friends eyes Ichigo was a new Aizen right now till Ginjou stuff.

And yes.

This arc is the second to last arc of the storyline.; The next longer story arc is the final one revealing all the secrets and mysteries.
