How Shinji's shikai effects were portrayed was the highlight of this episode. I liked it far back as well when he activated it against Aizen, but this time it looks so psychedelic. Gotta love it.

What bothered me is that this episode showcased his Shikai way better than it did his Bankai. Like, he used his Bankai on freaking fodder Quincies but his Shikai against an actual Stern Ritter. Sure this goes back to what I said about his Bankai being the worst one in the franchise since it wouldn't have worked against Bambietta anyway, but the sequence of events in this episode makes the whole thing feel way more awkward than it should've been.

Yes exactly, there were absolutely no stakes that would have him required to use this technique. No chance of him actually losing this "fight". 
I mean, I don't have anything against brutally overpowering an opponent but it feels more like a flex on the viewer than a logical conclusion in this situation. Because I heard Shinji never used his bankai in the manga, only in an cannon light novel.

Urahara's plan was quite ingenious. The Shin'eiyaku tablets effectively nullify the Quincy medallions, so even if a Shinigami's Bankai is stolen, it can be returned to them. It was a clever way to level the playing field against the Quincy, who had been using their medallions to great effect. I also enjoyed the parallel that Urahara drew between Bankai and Arrancar's Resurrección. Both are powerful transformations that give the user a significant boost in power, but they also come with a certain amount of risk. If a Shinigami or Arrancar is not careful, they can lose control of their Bankai or Resurrección, and that can be very dangerous. I was expecting more with Shinji's Bankai.. Still, it was effective. Also him messing around with Bambietta was goofy of him lol. Looking forward to Ichigo’s training more, flashes are throwing at him.
but come back to shinji background is Visored that have amount of hollow on their long time ago. If the stolen bankai can come back because hollow dose, why they not have curse effect or shinji bankai did not stolen?

Shinji’s Shikai is actually his strong ability while his bankai is his “weak” ability, cuz his the everything in reverse guy lol

Shinji was just plain cool this episode his bankai reveal was too.
This episode's animation was great and I don't know why some people are complaining about this season's animation and saying that it is a PowerPoint presentation level animation.

My guy Ichigo still training to unlock his true bankai. Hope he comes in action soon. And where the heck is Byakuya, like everyone is fighting the Quincies and that guy is just missing.

A slight comeback episode!

Kisuke came up with a smart plan that allowed everyone to bring out their power. Just from small observations he’s able to come up with grand schemes.

Hitsugaya and Soi Fon turn the ropes, and that animation when Shinji called out his bankai was fire.

But yet again, Yhwach has more up his sleeve. This has really been a war of chess, with each side making another move to put the opponent on edge.

Can anyone find the OST used for Shinji's bankai? I really want to listen to it by itself without any other audio playing on top of it.

I love the animation and OST I think the problem so far at least has been that the pacing is a bit weird, doesn't have a structured beginning/end of episode compared to last cour

Shinji's Bankai seems to be quite similar to Aizen's Bankai in terms of the specifics of the operation. Urahara saved Gotei 13's ass, as usual. I'm looking forward to the continuation of Bambi and Mask De Masculine's fights. Btw Bambi's voice reminds me of Mine's voice from Akane ga Kill. And that story of the King of Souls that flew before Ichigo's eyes. Something amazing I'm waiting for the next episode.

It's great to see Sakanade back. Such a fantastic zanpakutou and its wielder is one of the coolest characters in the series. That whole shikai scene was amazing.
The bankai is pretty lazy writing but at least it fits the theme unlike Soi Fon's bankai.

This was undoubtedly Shinji's episode. He even got his own theme. Though, he did lie a bit. Aizen (who else?) adjusted to fighting with everything being inverted.

Mayuri is also being heartwarming. I wish I could express as much despise by simply staring at people.

Overall, I am hooked and love the show but one can really tell the weaknesses in the writing. More "Gottcha!" moments that build on riddiculous presumptions and, oh, our one and only hope is (again) doing some last minute training for the next power up.

Best episode so far in this second part.
There was no crazy sakuga, but the animation was fluid enough that the fights were interesting to watch.

Hitsugaya’s fight was fluid enough and we get to see he getting his bankai back again, it was pretty good.

Soi fon bankai was also pretty and it looked great.

Now I don’t remember when was the last time a bankai reveal was as lack luster as Hirako’s… so many still images, and everything was so fast. They could’ve made him use it against bambietta. Now, Hirako and bambiettas’ exchange was really cool, Hirako’s Shikai never looked so good.

Those eyes on Ichigo at the end… I know where those are from!!

8.7/10 great episode.

Shinji’s bankai was mostly fanservice, it’s already nice that it’s present in the anime already, it’s gonna be better when they’ll adapt CFYOW, as they keep teasing it in the Ichigo part

fights were mediocre and its a bad game of here is my power up, no you reverse trap card here is my power up, but did you see my new power up?!

Forgot how bad Kubo was at writing. Even a decade later, rather than improving the story, he decided to be faithful to his bad plot
