| Like that the anime expands more on Squad 0's ulterior motives for Ichigo. Uryu going to take Cang Du and BG9 I'm pretty sure are anime only scenes. Get ready next week for |

| SAJIN supremacy!!! How long have I been waiting for this. KONO TATAKAE FUMIRU MAE NI, INOCHI WA TORI OITE KITAAA Cgi could be better but ok... The horny quincy got the ultimate bonk treatment) |
| It was so satisfying to see Komamura defeat Bambietta in the most badass way possible I’m literally crying right now, I hope they can find a way to help Komamura. No matter what form you take, Komamura, you will always be our captain. Also, I think Shinji was caught off guard cause there’s no other explanation since her ability is extremely complicated |

Her projectiles aren't bombs themselves but turn anything they come into contact with into a bomb itself, and Shinji just had like his entire torso blow up.shinji's OHKO was dissapointing :( This, plus they weren't a good match up, Bambi had a point in just nuking everything, doesn't matter if reversed or not. lol |

CondeSebastian said: I like how you wrote this entire review comparing 4 episodes of the new season to the full 13 of the previous one. You do realize the first 4 episodes of cour 1 looked like this as well right? Because they were min-maxing their pool of talent and budget until the main courses of the season like they obviously are here as well. Every "extremely well animated and fluid" fight that you mentioned occurred post-episode 4. The same applies here. Also, calling the CGI horrible is objectively wrong. It blends in with the art direction and doesn't jank. You aren't going to get better action CGI than this outside of Studio Ufotable and Orange.The first cour of Bleach was insane, Tite Kubo managed to correct some flaws from the manga in the anime, the manga was extremely rushed and with several flaws and plot holes, but the anime was practically perfect, although some secondary fights were a slideshow, such as: Bambieta vs Komamura first round, Toshiro vs Cang Du first round, Soi Fon vs BG9 first round, and several others that I could mention, but the main ones were extremely well animated and fluid, like Yamamoto vs Yhwach, Ichigo vs Yhwach, Zaraki vs Unohana and Byakuya vs As Nodt, and then the pacing was really good. And I must point out that the rain animation of the first cour was beautiful, probably one of the best of all anime, it reminded me of the Deep Sea King episodes in the first season of One Punch Man, and the rain in Masaki and Isshin's flashback was perhaps the second best of all anime behind only Araragi's Fight against Dramaturgy from Kizumonogatari II, having said that now I will criticize the second cour of Bleach, which to me is pretty mediocre. First, the character designs are still very beautiful, just like the first cour, nothing to criticize here, but the animation has gone downhill, it looks like a slideshow at times, and Bleach fans defend it at all costs, it seems that they are blinded by the return from the anime and are not being impartial when evaluating, Shinji Hirako's Bankai was horrible, the fans argument is: "but we didn't even have his Bankai in the manga, we should be grateful", I would prefer that it didn't have it then, because in addition to being used on extras, that CGI was horrible, and then there was a slideshow with the extras killing each other, I thought it was very bad, and Kubo kept the same error as in the manga, Bambieta defeated Shinji very easily, it was pathetic, he didn't even wear his Visored mask and was randomized, the Toshiro's fight was also horrible, a slideshow without any fluidity, everything plastered. The design and the colors were beautiful, but the animation reminds me of a gourmetized Record of Ragnarok, that's all. Now about the Komamura fight, that CGI was horrible, a little superior perhaps to Kimetsu's Gyokko fish, but infinitely inferior to Zohakuten's Wood Wyverns. They even made the design much more terrifying, the fire in Bankai's eyes was insane, but the movements and appearance were not polished enough, the camera angles and Bambieta's movements were cool, but the CGI hindered the experience a little , I'm not one to complain about CGI, but when it gets bad we have to complain, the first cour was insane, bordering on perfection, there were still some mistakes, the first episode also had CGI with the Hollows against Ichigo's group, but I thought it stayed much better polished. This season in relation to the designs are still as beautiful as the first cour, the scenery with the red sky is very aesthetic, but the animation has gone downhill, a complete slideshow, for those who are fans of Bleach it is worth watching, but it was a total disappointment for me, we had much better debuts this season, the previous season was Bleach's to shine, but this season it's not even on the podium of the top 3 of the season. Medium season at maximum! CondeSebastian said: Which anime outside of Zom 100 and JJK has had a stronger start than Bleach this season? Mushoku Tensei? LOL.we had much better debuts this season, the previous season was Bleach's to shine, but this season it's not even on the podium of the top 3 of the season. |
| Shinzo wo Sasageyo! Devote your hearts! Captain Komamura really did devoted his heart to the cause. Mans really ripped out his heart to learn the Jinka technique. Seeing him in human form was unreal. It was nice to see Komamura whoop Bambietta's fine ass. She feared for her life and got what she deserved. No one can blast away Shinji Hirako and get away with it. I wonder what the girls did to Bambietta when they found her all torn up. That cliffhanger of Ichigo showing up to Senjumaru's room was fabulous! Can't wait to see what hellish training the orange hair baka will do. |
 |
| real rough outcome of what happened to komamura but damn, his CGI bankai was not the worst ever but it still didn't look good either, especially the flaming eyes. looked better in the old bleach, that slow walk for 2 seconds toward yhwach was cool though. really glad to hear sugita tomokazu as kensei again and that episode count in the footprint was neat as well. those three shinigami losing a handicap and bambietta was not having it easy either. |
 |
| It's a shame Shinji was defeated so quickly after we were first introduced to his bankai in the last episode. Nonetheless, Komamura had a fabulous performance. When his lower left arm armor was destroyed by Bambietta, I was surprised at how human his hand looked. However, I would not have expected such a technique at all. Ripping out his own heart in order to not just revert to the original form and become temporarily immortal before Komamura's clan were condemned to be beasts shows the depth of guilt he continued to feel towards Yamamoto. I wish Komamura could have always taken this form as I think the design is very well done. After Komamura's Kokujo Tengen Myo-oh blasted his armor, his true form was also revealed for the first time. While I'm not sure why the CGI looked bad to some people, everyone obviously has a different, subjective take on things like this. I personally found it very appropriate as it blended in with the environment very well. The fight itself was decided much faster than I initially thought, which only underlines the strength of the Jinko technique. Unfortunately, you pay a high price, as we could see a short time later with Komamura's renewed transformation. I wonder if there's any significance to the Wolfman Klan Elder devouring Komamura's heart afterwards, which was clearly a bit weird and gross at the same time. Despite everything, big W for our boy Komamura. While I could be completely wrong, it's safe to assume that Bambietta was most likely killed by her "comrades", right? I can't wait for Haschwalth to really get into action. Who knows what would have happened if Ise hadn't been able to establish such a barrier twice, since Haschwalth seems to be one of the strongest guys on the Quincy side. It always brings a smile to my face when I hear Sugita Tomokazu as Kensei. Together with Rose, De Masculine Mask now faces 2 captains directly. He may be enormously strong, but I really don't see a real chance for him here. The ending with Ichigo was extremely interesting. So the heaviness he feels corresponds to the things he wants to protect? The question remains, what is the king's power all about? Does that mean Ichigo is currently acting as a kind of vessel for the king's power to flow into? While Ichigo may be able to walk the path, I'm hoping we'll get some more specific explanations. The transition to Senjumaru Shutara, who will apparently serve as the next training station, was well done. The only question is what she will have in store for Ichigo next. Looking forward to next week. |
 |
| man i hope doggo will be okay i always loved him. wonder what's going on with the training it's not very well explained. a vessel for something or other? sounds dangerous and who is that woman, looks like an empress of some sort? i think the next episode is going to be LIT but this one was awesome too. |

MegamiRem said: Nothing better happen to rukia she is literally best girl i will lose my marbles.Komamura went down taking down Bambietta with him. His bankai looked menancing. Wonder what happened to the sternritters who were defeated. The two descending from the sky were Rukia and Renji I assume. Hyped to see them fight, specially Rukia. Also Ichigo have reached a new place with a new beauty waiting for him there. What's next for him? |
|
Komamura vs Bambietta fight was great, really good, definitely an improvement from the manga... Also what has Ichigo been doing? It wasn't in the manga at all but I guess that would explain why he will be absurdly strong later. |

| And that's all it took by offering his heart:( Still epic episode. |
 |
| Komamura's story is so depressing, they did a great job with it though Probably one of my favorite parts of this arc |
| Damn the death of 3 captains |
 |
| Komamura was always one of those Captains that I always liked from the start, Even though he wasnt my favourite but he was always talking about Justice and I'm glad he got the Spotlight he deserved. I just hope he's alive in that Wolf form atleast and does retain his memories. 10/10 episode, Salute Captain Komamura.  |

| Many people have noted how disappointing it was that Shinji got OHKO'd, but what irks me the most is when things like that happen in shows where characters regularly get smashed through a million different things, have limbs blown/chopped off, sent flying across the map, get blasted with some insane power repeatedly, get holes blown through them, etc. etc. etc. and STILL survive. Yet Shinji, while using his Bankai, just gets KO'd from the first AOE attack that hits him? LOL c'mon... he didn't even use the mask yet! *womp womp* Anyway, I guess the whole "we stole your Bankai" plan is fully in the rearview mirror... Kinda disappointing, but oh well, I'll get over it. Also, the CG was perfectly fine. It wasn't bad at all, but some people still are stuck in the 2000's mindset that ANY CG = "bad" CG. I completely disagree with that. Just like there's good & bad traditional animation, there's good & bad CG animation, and a whole spectrum in between. I was never really attached to Sajin, and since I never went back & rewatched OG Bleach, I barely remember much about him. His new Bankai form was cool though! Can't say I'll miss him or anything, but still fun to watch. Lastly, I have no idea what's really happening with these Ichigo scenes, but hopefully the payoff will be worth it. Bleach has been my only shounen this season, as I've been trying to hold off on others until I can binge the full seasons. So far, it's holding me over well :) |
| “No, you can’t have a show where everybody’s Krillin!” – Shinpachi |
| Is the dog still alive? Can the technique be reversed somehow? At least the person he used it against did die eventually (right...?). Good animation throughout the episode. |
| . |
| It's painful to keep waiting for each episode, too good, ngl I hope it keeps getting better and better |
DreadfulLaw said: dog guy die hahahaha Did he die or has he just been turned into a dog full time now? |
| It's unfortunate that Shinji was defeated so easily, but I'm glad Komamura finally got a focus this episode and managed to beat Bambietta (although it seems he sacrificed himself). His only relevance in the original series was during Tosen's betrayal, so it's nice to hear his backstory. |
