| I like Kyoraku, but his bankai was kinda... boring? |
Reply to Red_Ranger_Wien
My favorite part of this fight is that Kubo saw the design they did for Kyoraku's zanpaktou spirit in the old filler and decided "I like that. I'm gonna keep it."
| @Red_Ranger_Wien Kubo made those designs for the rebellion filler arc. Every Zanpakuto spirit was designed by Kubo. |

| It was a nice episode 4/5 to me. Kyoraku is a type of cliché character I'm not a big fan of, also I don't like so much this kind of powers made uberpowerful /still the child's play shikai is interesting/ but I really liked how they adapted his bankai for the anime. To me this was one of the most challenging things about watching an anime like this years after the end of the manga, they were able to keep this stuff interesting, imho, they depicted it with that gold color, a sort of raditonal 'sumi-e' style etc. I am curious to know who's gonna be the main fighter in the next episode, maybe Kisuke? |
| This is one my favorite fights of Bleach. Really cool adaptation. Ohana is so gorgeous oh my! |

-Kino- said: a rich tapestry of high culture that's unique to Bleach especially as a shounen So how come kabuki theatres which were attended by common folks and wealthy merchants be high culture? Aren't the horn of gabriel and the day of judgement, some of the most well known aspects of christianity? Although if you are talking about high arts from a cultural or aesthetic point of view rather than a societal one, then you wouldn't be wrong but then how would bleach be any "unique" in that aspect when even run-of-the-mill shonen like black clover have these type of elements? yellowheartren said: Really the example episode for "how many asspulls and how much talk-no-jutsu does it take to actually kill someone and do they actually stay dead?" Come on this was one of the good bleach fights. TheBladeIsMe said: >ESL reading comprehension >he thinks this retort is going to ruffle any feathers outside of 4chan Nice try though. Should have used it in /a/ instead. Maybe then one of your other brethren would have supported you.  -za- said: Highest rated seasonal on MAL Highest rated seasonal on IMDB Anime of the year Episode of the year Mid:Zero, D*nd*d*n and One Piss in shambles Bleachads won Yes mal ratings!! The rating system where every other season a new anime makes it to the top 50 is reliable indeed!!! The site where users would give every entry of their favourite a 10/10 while giving 1/10 to other top entries is of such high merit!!! And "mid:zero" in shambles? Are they in this thread right now?  |
| Shunsui's bankai was epic, great battle!! |

@deg I've been complaining about this for a while, that's the dumb UNO reverse card bullshittery that I dislike about Bleach, this isn't new in shounen but Bleach takes this bullshit to a whole new other level and gets pretty retarded.
The animation is great and all, but I'm just not a fan of this UNO reverse card bullshit.

| @xZabuzax that's one of the things I don't get about the reception of this arc. All they say is "peak this, peak that" but the fights are poorly one dimensional. Unlike the previous arcs they at least had "bruh" jokes in between and had good trash-talking. TYBW has neither. |

| @Gator As someone from that area fo study, it just really doesn't translate well if you are not familiar with japanese games and theater plays. People outside Japan are destined to kinda just look at it and go "Oookaaay...?? What was that all about? lol", and that's comprehensible. Someone wrote a deep dive a while ago about it on a post, if you are curious about the content, however. |

| Wow two good episodes back to back, perhaps I judged this season too soon. I hope the remaining episodes of the season are as interesting as episodes 8 and 9. |
| Absolute traditional jap style bankai |
