| Jesus Christ, if Yhwach wasn't scary before, now he has absorbed the power of the Soul King... Very interesting that Kyoraku wanted to involve Aizen to be part of their strategy. I mean, I know they are desperate right now but also a very risky and complicated move. Seeing Kenpachi, Mayuri, etc back also shows that the Gotei 13 was preparing to counter attack. Hiyori and Shinji still has their silly chemistry going on. Grimmjow is also back! Bleach is back in its glory. |

| You know someone is in their own league when they can deal with something just by sitting comfortably(not really) on a chair when the same can’t be dealt with by a bunch of people literally going bonkers.. together. That’s why Aizen is that absolute GOAT. I mean to think this was still within everyone’s expectations again say a lot lol. Pierrot hyped him to the sky and literally backed everything out of it. Really though, can’t be more glad to see even with three cours in, the quality hasn’t dropped at all since that first episode two years back. By the way, someone has to do something about these bozos trying to take a stand against Aizen lmaooo. I mean these people aren’t getting backed by their own lol, so yeah it tells how dumb it is to try. Can’t wait to see anything over Bazz B, if they’ve planned. That speech from Kyoraku to hype the peeps of Soul society plus seeing Hiyori and co. back was a nice touch in the midst of all the chaos. Great episode again, and hey, of course, Ichigo is alive and kicking lol. Very hype to see Grimmjow back btw after sooooo long. |

| Everybody clowning and hating on Shunsui for freezing Aizen, as if y'all would've been able to defeat those eyeball things without his help (or without draining all your power), or even better yet, finally have a plan to get out of the Seireitei lmao. But with returns happening, very unfortunately some of the other Sternritters come back as well. Well, really the only annoying one to come out of the bunch is NaNaNa. But yeah, they have their reasons, and that's all that matters. it is nice to see that Kenpachi will be joining in on the fight. Been far too long since we've last seen him, it feels. Hey, even Hiyori is back too lols. Really just a big reunion episode tbh. Back to Ichigo and co. though, Orihime, MY GOAT, saving Ichigo as usual. Speaking of goats, the goat himself, Kon, also made his return. But hey, that's not even the best of it because THE GOATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT HIMSELFFFFFFFFFF GRIMJOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW IS BACKKK!!!!!!!!  |

| Great stuff, Kurohitsugi scene wasn't as hype as I hoped for but that's the only complaint, but holy... The TYBW staff didn't forget about the background characters, Shino Madarame and Ryuunosuke still alive. Aramaki [Maki Maki] still being there, Iemura being there ready instead of writing a journal that's how you know it's a real deal, Zennosuke the afro guy and most important The Goat, The Legend, Grimmjow himself. While Aizen was monolouging, I liked a lot Bazz-B continuing commenting on Renji's eyebrows, nice one. Now gotta wait another episode for 2 other characters to appear x). |
| Soul King-powered Yhwach with his complete The Almighty exudes an aura of omnipotence like no one else. Thought that is arguable because the GOAT is here... AIZEN. He doesn't need any power-up, he doesn't need to go around with a blade on hand, he doesn't even need to stand up. Though bound and restrained, limited to only micro-movements in comparison to others. He radiates that BOSS-like superiority that could rival Yhwach's. The hype is real and with Aizen's entrance, it's officially permissible to lose your shit entirely! In fact, you could say that the hype surrounding him is part of his plan. Many of the important casts such Grimjow-which were already teased in the last cour, are back. The pack follows the king as they say and now we've actually got a decent fighting force fighting against Yhwach with his Schutzstaffel. THIS will be the beginning of the real battle. The battle to turn the tide starts now! Now Ichigo has to go back and show Uryu and Yhwach his REAL strength, though that may be saved for later. The MC shines brightest at the end of the war. |

| I love all the character dynamics Aizen has here. All of the Gotei 13 are still seething at him lmfao. Would've loved to see Toshiro's reaction to Aizen being "free". That remark he makes about Ichigo stepping foot into the Soul Palace before him is also brilliant. 'Tis the little things. Yhwach is a more dynamic character than Aizen, but all of Aizen's dialogue here and the fact that he's capable of exuding this much aura (literally) while stuck to a chair reminds us why he's still the best villain in shounen. Great piece of worldbuilding as well earlier in the series with Shunsui convincing the draconic Central 46 that the Shinigami need to do what must be done (release Aizen) in order to have a chance at survival. The Soul Society is visibly changing ever since the Sternritters blitzed the Seireitei back in cour 1. A stark contrast to Yama, who refused to heal the arm he lost and was killed as a result. Looks like they're taking what Yhwach said about the Shinigami becoming weak and complacent into heart. "I don't consider using evil to defeat evil as evil." -Head Captain Kyoraku Soul King Yhwach is so powerful that the excesses of his power is capable of drowning out the Soul Society. |
| Did I miss an episode somewhere? No? No. I didn't. Why do I feel like I missed an episode somewhere? Geez. |
| MY GOAT AIZEN IS BACK BABYY LESS GOO |
| “Soul Reapers and Quincies joining forces… so they can protect the Soul Society together? No, it’s because they happen to share a common goal… to catch up and destroy the very enemy you’re going after. Ironic… that the one who stopped me… would enter the Royal Palace before me. You really are an insufferable man, Ichigo Kurosaki. “ 10/10 episode, no fights but still well-directed, good OST choices too. AND GRIMMJOW, man, it’s good to finally see GRIMMJOW again!! Please show us at least one interaction between him, Bazz-B and Renji hahah  |
Awwww Sooo CUTE!!!   |
| Yhwach is now very scary of a villian. Kyoraku knows what he's doing by releasing Aizen to help them to save the Soul Society, Hiyori and Shinji never change. Thanks Orihime to heal everyone up, hello again Grimmjow. |
     |
| Aizen just flexing his spiritual pressure. And barely outside and already doing an exposure monologue. Everyone that is not almost dead is here. |
 |
| Aizen, my GOAT. The sheer strength he showed by just being there on the screen. Still makes me wonder that Ichigo was able to defeat this beast of a man. But, right now, it looks like everyone has just one goal, Yhwach and save the world which might start crumbling any time now that Soul King is gone. Also, Grimmjow is back. AHHHHHH. Can't wait. |
 |
🫨 damn 🫨,,,,,,,,, |
He's a Beast, just waiting to Rampage  |
| Aizen time and time again proves that he is the best anime villain of all time. Imagine Aizen actually shot down the Royal Palace. That would've been wild! |
 |
| Very exciting episode. Aizen is such a treat to watch always. |
10/10 Episode. Aizen sama, GRIMMMJOWWW and the GOAT KON are here. LETSSS GOOOO |
Kon returns and saves the day once again, let's see what more roles in store for him. |
Good old Kon comedy |
| Aizen reminding me why he’s one of my all time favorite villains, the man is just so cool lol. I get why a lot of the other Soul Reapers are upset that Kyoraku is bringing him in to help, but come on guys, at this point you need literally any help available. Nothing you’ve done so far has worked out. And finally, THE BOY GRIMMJOW IS BACK. RAAAHHHHH. |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
my glorious king has finally returned 😭❤️ |
| Holy shit probably my favorite episode of TYBW arc. What a show man |

| @yellowheartren Maybe if you actually watched the show and not just TYBW you wouldn't be so lost |

| @HPython Could be wrong but I think its Yoruichi's brother |
| Really good episode. I heard this was a low priority episode but I disagree. The art was far better and more consistent than last week's episode. I would argue this week's episode has the best art of cour 3 so far. Aizen looks amazing and the effects of his black coffin and super saiyan amp look great. |
