Sub out by DB. I'd say a little better than the last ep. Nice to see a lot of new chars.

yeah, but its no better than the rest of Bleach's filler. Bleach has some of the most painful filler there is. But I still love it.

This ep wasn't really filler. And Bleach has some pretty good filler, namely the Bount arc. Naruto is the one with terrible filler.

It was ok, it didn't really move the plot much but it's cool you get to see all of the espada. But I feel as usual they will be underestimated or fight them one on one or something...or the all too familiar soul society says no and sends help anyway theme? I like it none the less, but still...

Hear, hear!

I liked seeing all of the Espada, though. Nng, but one wonders why Aizen just doesn't try to crush Ichigo before he does anything. I mean, sending all the Espada after him might be overkill, but that would take care of the problem. Because Soul Society is already worried enough that they're recruiting (and ordering) Ichigo for the fight against them...

Was waiting for Nell the whole damn episode and they slap on To be continued like I knew they would. damn it. Noitara's (i think that's how it was spelled) voice wasnt quite what I was expecting it to be. Gotta love grimmjaw getting lectured for trying to leave the dinner table early. Aizen: now grimjaw, am I going to have to take off my belt? xD as all the other espada snicker and say "haha you got in trouble"

The only filler part was the cyclone part.

Meh, still, this episode was way to drawn out. It sucked.

Meh you can't expect the series to be fast paced when its pretty close to the manga.

Ya, it's getting rather close, so there has to be a few fillers to slow down the anime like the cyclone part, at least it didn't take the whole episode or is completely obvious that it's a filler to nonmanga readers. Is it just me or has the character design of ichigo and ishida gone down these past 2 episodes?

Dibs on Ishida!

Is it just me or is this anime getting progressively worse? I loved the first 3 arcs that involved rescuing Rukia, but now it seems like the anime is losing it's edge. *sigh* I guess that's what happens to mainstream anime. :\

That doesn't make much sense. It's the manga author who does Bleach, not the anime. If the anime becomes mainstream, it really doesn't change the author's work.

Well, that's assuming that the anime production stays true to the storyline. Some of the newer episodes seem to diverge slightly from the storyline if not dragged out to some extent.

Again, nothing to do with it becoming mainstream. They are adding filler material because the anime is closing in on the manga, and needs to back off a bit.

Ok, so I probably misused the term. Either way, whether it is mainstream or not is not really important. I just hope it doesn't turn out like some other lengthy series like Naruto starting out popular and dying out.

Nel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yay.

Watching this episode made me realize again how much of the Bleach world we still have no clue about. How powerful is Aizen? What exactly is Ichimaru Gin's goal in this all? What about Ishida's and Ichigo's parents? There's still a whole other book to be opened.

Yeah, Bleach has a lot of potential in the story department, but it doesn't seem to want to focus on it =/

I was confused as to why Dattebayo changed their spelling of Grimmjow's name. They were using an English spelling before: Jaggerjack. This time they used some weird French-like spelling: Jeagerjaques.

I also don't get why Ichigo didn't cleanse that Hollow lizard. It may just be a lizard, and no harm to anyone, but it's still a Hollow, and should get its chance to go to Soul Society.

Nothing much happened, but it's good to see all the Espadas in one room. And lol at Aizen-sama saying, "There's an attack. But let's have some tea first!"

Is it me or the art getting a bit crappy again? =_=

Lol at Hueco Mundo Lizard. Maybe Cubone (Pokemon) is a Hollow? XD

Nice episode...

It seems that the Arrancar can't do without a nice cuppa.

I enjoyed seeing the Espada in one room... I like the woman with blonde hair and crazy makeup :) and of course Grimmjow.

NubSmoo, just shut up, you don't even know what you're talking about. Clearly roooooooooookkkkkkkkkkkkkkiiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaauauauauau wants to have some sort of good relationship with Chad but the "powers that be won't let them" its a classic love story in a bag, all flashes and colors; but you take one step to the side and you realize that it is completely two-dimensional.

The show died after episode 95, this Clorox bastard of an anime makes me squirm, back to the good ol' days.


this is how we do it? eh?I don't like the director or the company he works for anymore. Its a stab in my heart.

Nice to see all of the Espada but the episode still felt slighlty dragged out.
I didn't notice the filler bit as a non manga reader and i thought it was just as good as the rest of the episode.

Intrested to see how Soul Society are going to get involved here...

Finally, all the Espada and commanders have appeared.

Grimmjow, you will get your moment to shine soon, don't worry. (I think)

That blonde Espada has me interested already.

I don't get what's Grimmjow's problem. But anyway, he doesn't really seem much loyal to Aizen in my opinion. I just know he's gonna go after Ichigo the first moment Aizen or Tousen aren't aren't watching over him. And I know that Aizen knows this, but he still forced his will on Grimmjow with the pure intent to instill respect in the minds of the other Espadas.
