So they've entered soul society.. and omg Ishida actually brought spare clothes. XD What a woman.

I can't believe Ishida brought spare clothing. O.O
Wow! That giant has really strong hearing.
Looks like it will be an interesting battle in the next episode. Awesome!

I really felt like this dragged a bit. It was obvious they were going to get in so i was hoping the fight would take less time.
Glad Inoue's powers seem to be smoother now.
And when the cat headbutted Inoue that was a massive rofl ...

Pretty crappy episode, I hate when a series just throws out a generic character just to show off how bad ass a certain character is.

Yep, for real.

But I agree that this episode felt unneeded and mostly boring.

It was an okay episode. LOL at Uryu having a spare cape. Jidonboe is freakin huge, and Ichigo looked like a savage defending all his attacks. The captain of squad 9's face looks like (^_^) I give it a 4/5

4 of 5 for this ep. Ishida reminds me of my best friend, bringing clothes with him wherever he goes lol xD. This is a good intro to the Soul Society arc, and it shows off Ichigo's true power.

ahh.. This anime's mediocrity is seriously insulting.. How was/is this shit so popular?

I have never seen such uninteresting crew characters in a shounen anime. Girl only exists for fan service the giant barely talks and glasses kun is the only one that is somewhat decent.. not that he's interesting though. Heard that this Arc is supposed to be pretty good and that's the only reason why I haven't dropped this yet. It has to pick up now or I'm out.

Chad is awesome, no talk - just doing what is needed to do!

uuh i understand that main character is badass and stuff but i felt bad for the guard !! Ichigo could be more respectul towards him in the beginning yknow... i just... the guy waited for them to have a talk despite it being absolutely useless 'cause guards sets the rules here anyway...

...Ichigo so OP dayum

... and i wished the spirit world looked less human, more surreal or something... like. Old Japan style and that's it ?? eh?

Okay, next obstacle it this smiley captain :]

Hope to see Ichigo and Co working as a team

Although, she did say this when she first got her powers, she didn't deliver it as confidently as she did in this scene.

One of Orihime's lines from Bleach Immortal Soul.

I know now that I know nothing.

Awesome episode, Ichigo having fought the five days and nights after already gaining back his power is satisfying. Tantrum was really funny too! Ichigo's going to be mad powerful.
Looking forward to more of Squad Three Captain coming up!

The animation, tension in the air when he's about to turn into a hollow is insane, animation doesn't disappoint.

Small thing I only now realized Orihime sounded so unsure of herself because she just entered herself into a war she has no business being in at least her 6 angels will probably keep her alive.

Decent episode but I'm guessing it's not as good just so there's a buildup for something big. Seeing how strong Ichigo has gotten is really cool to see though, can't wait to see more

Somewhat mediocre this time. It's cool to see inside Rukongai but Ichigo rushed forwards too quickly - and that wasn't much of a fight. Ichigo doesn't really learn anything/struggle here and just defeats Jidanbou with rather more ease than befits a 300-years undefeated guard, veering slightly into OP territory. And no Rukia! I have high hopes for the next episode, though - that's Ganju in the preview so, as I remember, they should start having difficulties soon.
The other three were cool here - a nice save from Chad, brave intervention from Orihime and Uryuu bringing spare clothes LOL...

The episode was pretty cool and funny at the same time. Apparently Ishida has a change of clothes wherever he goes. XD Ichigo showing off the benefits of his training. The gatekeeper apparently able to hear from several yards away his tantrum when he lost was glorious. A nice intro to the Soul Society arc and some great development here.
