Bah, fillers are coming.

I also frakking hate the fact the first 5+ minutes can be skipped. Can't they just stop Bleach for a while and pick the series up when there's enough material in the manga?

I agree with everyone who wants to see more about Ichigo's and Ishida's fathers. Not knowing their past is about as annoying as an itch you can't reach. Anyway, I'm sad to see the Pendulum Arc coming to an end. It's all been so interesting! I hope the filler isn't stupid.

Unless I'm bored out of my mind, I skip fillers. :D

I wish they carried on with the main plot. Or ended the series after the first arc ended. I hate prolonged anime shows, no matter how good they are. Naruto and One Piece for instance, I dropped almost immediately after they started getting ridiculous.

Damn that was cool, I was shooting out the same stuff that came out of their eyeballs from my crotch while watchin this. Love all the characters here and learning their backgrounds and connections. Also it really shows off how bad guy ish Aizen is since he just combed his hair back and up and ran away into hiding in the present arc.

I realy liked this arc, probably the best one iin bleach's (history of course), however why do the bleach makers think that all bleach fans have got some kind of memory lapse, they have to take five minutes just retracking back annoying! also how the hell did Aizen turn all of them into hollows, yet another plot hole in Bleach I guess.....!

I really liked this episode. I didn't care for the vaizards much before, but this arc really made me interested in them, and kisuke ofcourse, love him! :D I'd be sorry to see this arc end.

I liked it.with Ulquiorra back around it always go time. I gust hope that Ichigo doesn't make a bound form not even being able to make Ulquiorra draw strait to being able to beat him by himself, I just hope that the other captains in the place have to help him. that's all i ask for

All-in-all, I actually liked this filler arc the most.


This arc wasn't a filler arc. It was in the manga.

@Topic: Fantastic episode, by the looks of it next episode is the final episode of the Pendulum arc and I'm guessing fillers are up next -___-


yeh i kinda got that feeling too... u can kinda tell wen its manga and wen its filler, just the way the animation goes... coincidentally, filler's story moves forard much faster than the actual anime but its alot more boring
if i have to put up with one more ep of that Hollo wanna be child-princess for one more episode ima nuke Ueko Mondo

Great episode. hopefully the next fillers wont be so bad. From this episode it was amazing to see how the vizards already worked so well together.
*ahhh, its Kensei!
*yes, but we must stop him.
*right!
YAY, there wasn't any crap about how they didnt want to hurt him, or trying to convince Hollified Kensei and Mashiro that they arent being themselves...they assessed the situation and would have handled it, if Tousen wasnt so much of a chump. Lisa was amazing and so was Shinji. Damn i love the vizards and i really appreciate this arc in an anime of fillers. I'm ready to see urahara and tessai whop some ass^_^

Can someone answer this for me: if Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tosen were already clearly up to no good then, then why the HELL are they still captains 101 years later?!?!

I'm also concerned about the Vizards being hollowfied. Remember how Ichigo had to go through a whole process of subduing his inner hollow, where it took all the might of all the Vizards to contain him during? I really hope they don't leave a gaping plot hole there, in which the Vizards just suddenly are able to control their hollows.

AIZEN! His schemes no no limit. I guess Urahara really is the only one that can hold his own against him.

It was a joy to see Tousen get thrown around by Hollow Shinji, he seriously pisses me off. Reminds me of Suzaku from Code Geass, I hope he gets a painful death.

Urahara!

This is one of my favorite arc in the show,so I'm rewatching it...The only thing I can't understand up until now is that the 3 captains were having their asses kicked and none of them were doing shikai, not to mention bankai...So they don't wanna hurt Kensei,big deal...But they're letting him pound Lissa...I like Shinji's character but he sucks in this arc and the future Aizen fight...

CAPTAINS = BANKAI (except for Zaraki)

Fuck the main story, if we just spent the rest of Bleach following these guys and Kieskue, and throw in some stuff with Ichigo and Ishida's father's, I'd be a happy camper.


I second that! Would love to see more of Kisuke's past.

I third that. The arc around now is top-bleach-quality, but if we get events revolving around Ichigo and Ishida's father, this is gonna top the best out of Bleach.

But anyway, bloody Aizen and his plans and especially that darn black guy. I hated him before, but now I despise him from the bottom of my heart.

I don't know how anyone could say this doesn't fit in to the storyline, it explains important things.

I wonder how Aizen did it too!

Shinji is cool.

Man, seriously, Aizen was just as slick of a sneaky bastard back then, it looks like he really was taking the upper hand this whole 100 years.
Maybe the speed of the hallofication is judged about how rational and hot-headed you are, that could explain how Hiori and the white-haired former captain looked to have transformer way quickly. This really makes me want a rematch in the present day, it's crazy how this arc that was weirdly placed before that action-packed arc is only making more hyped for the battle.
Now we must see how good of a fighter Urahara really is in this serious by
battle.

Just how did Aizen cause hollowfication to all those shinigami, is what i'm wondering.

that is my question too!! i don't understand how he started that... but urahara did something similar to ichigo in the very beginning right? to get his powers? or was that something else? or is this the same as what happened to ichigo after he met shinji to get the mask?

Of course it's Aizen, still wondering what he did to Hollowfication them.
Ah i see this is the reason they leave Soul Society and become Visored.

Aww little Nanao so cute.

Wait... I'm freakin' confused. How did all of them obtain hollow all of a sudden?? Was it from Tosen somehow? Did he just quick-jab them when they were under his Zanpaktou's spell? Did they explain this? I feel dumb af lol...
