Thank God This arc is over. Frankly i didn't watch the last episode because it was getting a little boring and annoying since i hate when it's always that same person would have to take the spotlight on everything. Besides This arc was starting to draw over too much Like DBZ, because i never knew till now that Ichigo could fly o_o

The next episode is still going to part of the arc though.

And I totally get where you're coming from berserker: in DBZ and Bleach, they just randomly knew leart how to fly right

ichigo never really flew except when he had the weird thing on his arm and when he had the cloak in the soul society arc

Nah, we're talking against Karia, when he done that really fast move in the air that makes it looks like theres multiples of him. But thinking about it, i guess it wasn't really flying, but just staying in the air.

Well he wasn't explicitly flying but anyone would get that assumption if it was the first time seeing him. I mean it's seen that ichigo can jump to an exceeding limit

Hmmm... That was good...ish.., but Ichigo didn't even have to Bleach to get rid of Kariya... shows how weak filler bosses are. O_O Now the summary episode, or whatever it is...

Episode 108 was exciting, I'm so glad that Kariya is finally dead, with Ichigo as the victor :).

Only 1 more episode left of the fucking Bount Arc, and then it's straight on to the glorious Arrancar Arc :D!

I am so excited about watching Episode 109 this weekend ^_^!

I really liked this arc but seriously what the f*ck was up with that ending just going "poof" after all that fighting I feel robbed of a decent ending and considering there are 1-2 eps left I bet those will be sh*t.

Well, I liked it. The cutting off in a poof of dust mid-sentence actually had a nice effect, in my opinion. And I agree with Ichigo; that was probably what Kariya really wanted.

Ichigo didn't stop him?

IMO Kariya wanted to end his Life but he didn't want to die in vain.
Or he might have been interested in Ichigo's Personality and he didn't want to kill him.

He used it against Byakuya in the Soul Society arc.

End of the arc, well sort of. I thought the end fight was ok but again, less talking would have been better seeing as supossidly there is impending death.
Byakuya his cold self again xD
Filler arc was ok, i just think if they squashed it into less eps it would have been really good rather than dragging it out.

So far this was my favourite arc and mainly down to how awesome a villain/character Kariya was!

I can't believe he actually let Ichigo kill him after all that but then again living forever must get boring after a bit especially if history does just repeat itself over and over.

They had an epic battle and I really will miss Kariya and those abs though lol.

This arc wasn't bad, but I'm glad it's over.

Nice final fight between Ichigo and Kariya. In the end he searched for a place and opportunity to end his life.

come ooon Ichigo!
it's just a filler- you can tots let your hollow out a little, let him get some exercise, maul a couple of thousands of residents in Soul Society and then usher lil' hollow back inside your body, no one will even notice, recognize, or remember what happened since it's just a filler ^_^-

seriously though; if his hollow is that insaneously OP, can't he just make friends with it and let it murder his enemies if it promise not to hurt his friends or allies -w- ?

is it this strong during the Aranncar arc later? i can't remember since it was quite some years ago since i watched it, but afaik; Hollow never has any difficulty against anything people throw at it, while Ichigo's getting his ass whooped however many times before he's on that brink-of-death moment where Hollow tries to catch a break and Ichigo gains his oomph after sushing Hollow away...

.....you're so unfair Ichigo.

"Byakuya! What's wrong? Byakuya?!" <--nope, he's just ignoring you, lol.

"Kurosaki. I am-" -poof gone!
..he's what?!

AND GOOD BYE FILLERS WITH BOUNTO 8D!!!

I'm starting to remember more about this arc, particularly Kariya. I did remember feeling kinda bad that he had to be killed, though canon is kind of a jerk like that. Bleach filler isn't that bad, all things considered.

My god this whole arc was a filler tf! now every damn thing make a sense. Thx to mal i know that otherwise i would have hated bleach for that , I mean this is just insane the things in this arc have gone wrong as badly as possible. The only thing i liked is Kenpachi fight and the op song. Thank god i knew this was all fillers πŸ˜‘

Okay fight but not really a good fight for the final battle.

ah in the end Hollow Ichigo didn't come out just helping with that one move.

Rukia goes there for nothing other than watching it live and give some commentary. lmao

bruh i'm so surprised that cliff still survived after all the damage.. wtf

Tragic Bount Story is ended at last.

now let's back to the Manga Canon.

Finally at the end of the bount arc. Though i did enjoy it there were definitely stretches throughout that were quite boring along with this arc dragging on for to long.

This was a nice end to the arc and the fight between Ichigo and Kariya was very intense. Though the one thing I found a bit lack luster about there fight was Kariya weapon/doll thing throughout I thought it was gonna be something really cool but it was just a wind sword that turned into lighting.

Another thing I disliked about this arc was the side between Uryu and the bount women along with Rantao looking like that women.

Though in the end it was alright.

Ichigo won. But I still question how Ichinose’s sword redirected Kariya’s lightning. Of course, it was a forced win since they orchestrated a situation where Kariya couldn’t recover, aiming for Ran Tao to succeed in some way, which involved sealing Kariya’s healing ability.

I mostly forgot everything from this arc and am glad I survived this rewatch. Now, I’ll keep moving forward.
