| Much better than the previous half of the fight. Pernida looked way better and Nemu's death was pretty sad and even more brutal than in the manga. She's the closest someone like Mayuri will be to actually care for someone, and only as a scientific project lol. Szayelaporro's part was also nice, that guy always made me uncomfortable and they def nailed his vibes in his short appearence. The post credits were a big WTF moment tho. So Giselle zombified Meninas and Candice and the Soldats fighting them have Almighty? Gonna need a proper explanation for that since that wasn't in the manga. This anime never fails to surprise me. |

Incredible ep, so emotional  "you're the captain's masterpiece" |
| Hands down the best episode of s3. I seriously didn't expect they can execute an episode better than earlier episodes but yet again this adaptation exceed my expectation once more. The quality of s3 really outshines s2 by quite a large margin. Blows Jujutsu s2 out of the water for me (Jujutsu s2 is vastly overrated tbh, especially the flashback part) It's kinda sad English regions are sleeping on Thousand Years War compare to other big hit of 2023/2024 . (Like Dandadan/ Oshi no Ko/ JJK S2) I mean even PNG Lock s2 with absolutely garbage production is more popular than Thousand Year War. Pathetic really. |

| It's a great ep. It was shocking to see any distorted emotions on Mayuri's face. Sad to see Nemu go. Let's wish the ingenious scientist would do something to bring her back into the physical body, especially since he has her brain. |
 |
| yep always the female characters in this that i actually like get done in bruh, there was bambietta that time and now this. just cba. |

| Masterpiece of an episode. 10/10. This is my favorite episode, with episode 9 coming in second, and episode 7 coming in 3rd. They did a great job adapting this. |
 |
| This part always gave me conflicting feelings, in one way I feel like it sucks to have Nemu go out this way so abruptly and brushed off so quickly, but Mayuri does act somewhat human at least for a moment about it until he goes back to his usual self again, which show even he can have fatherly feelings about his creations if he spends enough time with them. So a good episode that leaves somewhat of a bitter taste in the mouth, but I guess that's just Mayuri as a character which is what makes him one of the most interesting in the series. |

| @SamBlack Miyaru is not that sad because he still has Namu's brain, so I'm sure he can make a new body for Namu while retaining her past memory. |
| that was cool learning all about Nemu and CPT. K. :O |

| Now I have a newfound respect for Mayuri. And great episode btw. We got to see Nemu's past and we learned that she was Mayuri's greatest creation up-to-date (for the anime). Nemu has evolved to a point where she takes the initiative to decide things on her own instead of waiting for orders. A good character development for her. I think my favorite part of this episode was when Mayuri had a mini mental breakdown over Nemu's death and was berated and reminded by Szayelaporro that perfection is BS, while a song (I guess will be released on the Bleach the Blood Warfare OST 2) was playing in the background that set the mood for Mayuri's reflection. Then, Mayuri claimed he has finally surpassed Urahara Kisuke for his work on creating Nemu. Let the man bask in glory! Huh, so during the after-credits, Meninas and Candice got zombified and were brought along with Bambietta to Wahrwelt. Then the Bambies were fighting many Soldat that were infused(?) with the Soul King's powers or maybe those were clones made by Yhwach. I guess Pierrot is planning to extend that fight. Ok, so next episode is the conclusion of the battle between Kyouraku and Lille. Can't wait to see Nanao playing out her role and a certain dead man's appearance. |

| Best episode of Cour 3 so far, even better than Shunsui's bankai from last week and also surpassing all the other top tier fights in this cour (Uryu vs Renji, Ichigo vs Uryu, Ichigo vs Yuha) Amazing OST, fantastic animation with 0 bad frames/shots, peak direction and storyboarding and we got Nemu's cake on full display (God of Thunder fans on full hopium right now). Next episode is one of the most controversial manga moment in the series, let's see how anime-only fans take it and if Kubo improves it by adding anime original scenes |
| Nemu!!! She was so pretty this episode as well 😭Wait so she can be revived cos he has the brain right???! |
| Nemu's spotlight was given so much care, her sacrifice for Mayuri made me emotional again after all these years. No. 7, we'll never forget you... On another note, Pernida's CGI looked much better this episode in my opinion. Also, it's nice to see Szayel is creepy as ever. 9/10 overall. |
| Damn how good the episode was. I swear, i've always loved Mayuri, but damn how badass and cool he was in the episode, and previous one as well. Outstanding performance on Mayuri's end, and such a marvelous fight. Loved Toshiro's return as well, since he has always been one of my favorites as well. So excited to see what he's gonna do in this arc. |
| Mayuri has feelings. Who would've thought? Brilliant Episode! |
 |
| Was looking forward to this ever since they announced that Bleach was coming back. Did not disappoint. Loved it. |
| I'm sad the way Nemu died, this episode was a masterpiece from start to finish |

It feels kinda weird tbh, I mean they could’ve simply decided to have this episode as the “previous” episode and the previous episode as the “current” one, because you know, the continuity in anything feels better. Not really an issue though, just that it feels odd, because at the end of the day they wanted to adapt this part. Anyway, it’s been long overdue when it comes to getting to know anything at all about Nemu. She’s been here since the start, but yeah, all we know is that she’s an experimental subject of Mayuri(which is all she’s about too xD), though hey, Mayuri calling someone creepy…
… it’s, you know, pot calling the kettle black lmaoooo. Though still, lil Nemu was… pretty similar to the current Nemu, just that she was short. Liked the small bit she was on screen, but yeah, to think the current one literally committed suicide to kill that quincy… quite graphically at that, sheesh. Makes sense they had that insert song for her. Really something this particular part was, and yeah, they made sure it would weird people out, and it did as well. Mayuri deserves that rest xD
Great to see Toushirou and Matsumoto back as well.

| @Softhenic03 I think it's a way to express that those fights happened at the same time (altho it may be also the order they showed those episodes in the manga) |
Hola a tots! |
| Very good plot episode. Was very touchy seeing Mayuri's relationship with Nemu. |
| At least her brain is safe... |

| RIP Nemu, she's still the person who saved Ishida's life so I'll hold respect for her. I'll have tow say though, Szayelaporro's cameo is what really sold the episode to me. |
  |
| Never was a big fan of Nemu, but I actually liked her this episode. A pity that it was the episode that she died lol |
| Oh my I am so sad over Nemu’s death. She was always one of my favorite assistant captains and I wished for her to be treated better. However we got to see a side of Kurotsuchi that I don’t feel was previously explored. His fights are always cool but super confusing. When he gets into the logistics of his science I can’t understand how it works. So many captains seem to be dying this arc, I wonder how this affects the story. Seems someone is suspicious of Uryu already. Has he begun to rebel? |
