I originally wrote a dissatisfied review of the episode, but then deleted it because I didn't want to be too negative in a discussion mostly filled w/ praise. However after seeing many others online voice their dissatisfaction with the episode, I feel more vindicated in sharing my thoughts as well.

Episode was good. 6/10. So what's wrong?

Let's start with the elephant in the room. The CGI isn't bad imo. Does it look as good as if it was hand-drawn? No, but it doesn't look bad. What does look bad is Pernida swaying in the air like a tree on a windy day. It looks dumb and draws more attention to the CGI. Pernida looks and feels like a video game character in a cut scene.

The episode feels slow, which is a first for this adaptation. I wasn't on the edge of my seat throughout the episode, and I think a lot of things contributed to that. I think the studio should have either put more effort into the episode or they should have condensed the fight more. If the episode ran 33% faster, it wouldn't have felt as anticlimactic.

Beyond that, here is the good

Great music
Great art, other than Pernida
Love the use of CGI with Wahrwelt. When the characters are running through the streets, the CGI looks excellent.
Mayuri's bankai was pretty good.

Truly one the most grotesque episodes I have seen, especially from bleach. Props to the animators for this. Mayuri truly is a psycho. Also I can’t believe twitter haters went ballistic on the CGI that was only few seconds, they made it seem like it was the whole episode. It didn’t bother me

Mayuri fight episodes never disappoints. It's the type where you get the more absurd, eerie, and morally questionable moments of the series thrive.

Mayuri is still the biggest weirdo of Soul Society, that's for sure. I love the new renditions of the old, OG ost's. Feels so nostalgic. The new ones are also great, Shiro Sagisu never disappoints.
The CGI was fine, and the rest of the animation has been pretty damn good.
If you win, you live, if you lose, you die. If you don't fight, you can't win.

Not a huge fan of the CGI. Komamura's Bankai CGI was handled much better. I wonder why they have to use CGI in the first place. Is it really difficult to anime a giant hand?

Otherwise, great episode as always. Mayuri is such an awesome character.

Not a bad episode in an of itself, but definitely the weakest of the cour so far.
Mayuri's VA is always on point though, what a performance.
At least the second half of the fight should be more interesting.

Plus, Kyoraku reading the poem for this week means that next week we're getting at least the start of one of the best fights in the series.

This is expected as Mayuri is cunning as he is. Quite an eerie, yet appalling, manipulative fight in this episode.

Mayuri continues to increase his creepiness. His inquisitive nature is commendable, though.

Too bad for Zaraki.
