| First half was kinda useless because of the useless flashback, second half was good, Rukia has guts |
 |
| Never can argue with Rukia flashback's or her past. Good episode, I enjoyed it. Wish the fight actually had more action. Aaroniero dying was a little bit freaky. |
 |
| he has the assorted abilities of 30,000 hollows, but still lose to Rukia... what the hell lmao Rukia die? nahh she fine, she is the Main Character...lol |
 |
| Recaps aside, this was definitely one of the better & more impactful moments in a while - particularly for Rukia. Learning more about her connection to Kaien and what he meant by leaving his heart behind definitely got me sentimental. On a broader note, the idea of connecting feelings, memories & souls through bonds is the recurring theme I love to continue exploring in anime. I actually like how Rukia won. It had more to do with her resolve and knowing where Kaien's heart & soul truly resided. |

| Those espada are weak af, Ryukiya really beat one espada by herself that tells me all I need to know about them |
| Kinda enjoy the flashback of Rukia and Kaien-dono The fight is anti climatic though That Espada has 30,000 hollow power, but ded from getting stabbed once in the face kek |
 |
| The realization of the heart thing, is another version of the saying “you die the second time when someone says your name for the last time”. I actually liked it. I kind of realize now why people say this is the lowest point of the anime. The fodder fights are boring. But the big fights are coming up soon. |

| I like the second half of this episode. What Kaien said to Rukia about heart is super meaningful~ I want to keep that in mind. davidyodo24 said: he has the assorted abilities of 30,000 hollows, but still lose to Rukia... what the hell lmao Rukia die? nahh she fine, she is the Main Character...lol ...I mean, the way you put it.... LOOOOL'd!!! Rukia's been getting easy kills so far if you think about it hahahaha! She got rid of the fused hollow Kaien with just her sword sticking out. She got rid of that weak Arrancar with her Zanpakuto and now this Espada. I guess 30,000+ hollows don't really mean anything. (￣ ￣|||). I'm like laughing in pain because it seems like she's only doing the minimum. |
| The Renji/Dondochakka banter dragged on a little too long for my liking but it is what it is. Hope he's not too screwed since Szayelaporro broke his bankai. Some nice Rukia backstory this episode, definitely fleshes out more of her history with Kaien to build off of the last flashback. And she managed to kill an espada by herself! She's always been my favorite female character in Bleach. I hope she can get some help soon, because she definitely can't be of any more help saving Orihime with the injuries she got during the fight. Little side thought related to that: Why is my girl always getting impaled? Kubo really loves injuring her in horrible ways. |
| episode was actually kinda sad |
  me candies:        |
| i love rukia chan she did her best for kaien dono |
