Rapidfire said: I found it interesting that the episode had titles as to where everything was taking place (22km east of Karakura city, etc.) because they had never done so before in the series (I think). I kept expecting to hear this when I saw the titles- |
| Is there another word for synonym? |
| Nice OP song The animation was ok. The End song is great i liked it. |
 |
| I just prefer not commenting on this opening and ending... Everything's said. The episode then... It was pretty decent, but since it covered exactly 2 manga chapters, I wonder how much longer it will go before falling back into fillers, unless they plan on finishing Bleach in a different way to the manga. Considering how little actually happens in a manga chapter, I guess that the next filler arc is going to be very long, or they're gonna slow down even more (which would mean you being able to sleep for 5 minutes and still being able to hear the end of the sentence). I really wish that they would try to at least gather things round so that before going back into fillers, at least we have an image of what is happening everywhere, since they're all scattered. |
 My Claims: |
| Wtf where are those random filler coming from? Why the hell is that ring of fire there?! *insert Johnny Cash here* Bright side: UlquiHime. Once again the manga and anime timing is good. The time Ulquiorra disappeared in the manga is the time he came back anime. And the time he came back in the anime is when the fight finished in the manga. |
   |
| Bleach returned to the axles! And I adored the new opening! |
 |
| Glad it's back to the main storyline ^^ Can't wait to see the upcoming fight. |
 |
| The new OP is really.... weird, ok? o__o' Episode was slow paced but at least the animation didnt suck. |
     |
| anyone else think yamamoto was seriously badass in this episode? not bad for a filler episode, feel kind of sorry for those execution guys though, now that renji and chad are going to fight them, and the leader has to fight rukia, not a good place to be! |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
| I'm just glad we are done with the Filler Arcs.... seriously... And is it the season of lip sync OPs?? |

I swear I thought Ulq was about to grab a tit for a sec lol Ulq: Well Ichigo's gonna come in a bit and kick my ass. Might as well get something out of this. *grope* Orihime: O_o |

| love the new op sequence, not too thrilled about the songs though, also finally glad to see the story's back on track is it me or did the animation quality go up? |
 |
nyamo said: is it me or did the animation quality go up? I notice it too. If every episodes animation quality is like these, I'll be happy. |
| New OP not bad but not better than the last. The animation were Rukia and Orihime dance is horrible. By the way didn't Oihime looked really fat there? The ED has a terrible song. At least for this episode they should have kept the old ED because it fits perfectly with the touching Orihime speech. Now to the Episode part. Ye it was slow but i prefer slow episodes than a year of stupid fillers. They have no choice but to go slow considering how close they are to the manga. Ulquiorra speech might have been just a trick to kill time and let Ichigo come just in time in the scene but you have to appreciate the atmosphere that man creates when he talks. He just makes the hair in the back of your neck stand up. That calm but scary way of talking is a unique feature of Ulquiorra. He is one amazing character. |
| This ep was cool but, alot of standing around doing nothing by Ulq/Orihime. Ah well. I'm looking forward to next weeks. Maybe next week, Ulq will grope her? |
 |
Monad said: yeah .N By the way didn't Oihime looked really fat there? it was horrible  |
| I found this episode to be a whole lot of nothing to be frank. I realise that there was some ground to make up due to the fillers in order to reacquaint the viewers with the story but very little of interest happened here. Hopefully the next episode will be an improvement. Having not read the Manga I'm not privy as to what the immediate future holds for this story. As much as I enjoy Bleach I really do believe that Tite Kubo may want to consider winding it down now as it is simply retreading on well worn ground and has been for about a year now. It's had a good run so why not end now while it is still popular instead of milking it to death resulting in it fading away until it is a mere shadow of its former self? |

| You can tell an episode is fucking boring when everyone in the topic is talking about the new OP. Anyway. . . . lol |
リスト 。。 |
| I love sky chord better for the ending.. =_= and velonica for the opening.. but the episode is nice.. :D I WANT ICHIGO and Ulquiorra's FIGHT!! WAA!! |
... =_=     |
| new OP - sucks this episode - sucks even though they follow manga, why do they do it sooooo sloooow... -_-* |
 |
Iahel said: its not slowwhy do they do it sooooo sloooow... -_-* they're now at the chapter 317 :( |
| for a moment i tough that the 3rd silluete of the opening was going to be neliel...then iwouldnt had any complains, so rigth now the opening sucks, the ending was pretty good but no so much and the epidose was slow but looking forward to capitans figth |
| Being a fan is like having a penis. Its nice to be proud of it But don't pull it out in public and wave it in other's faces Kyurem Black. Kyurem White. Together they are Pretty Kyurem. |
| New OP and ED songs suck. decent episode, but kind a slow. |
 |
Iahel said: even though they follow manga, why do they do it sooooo sloooow... -_-* it takes an average reader 45 seconds to 1 minute to read a Bleach chapter these days. expect Studio Pierrot to drag this arc out for a long, long, long, long while so as not to catch up with the manga. good luck to those who will continue to watch this show on a regular basis as it will probably come with a weekly dose of RAEG in regards to the pacing. |

Kira said: You can tell an episode is fucking boring when everyone in the topic is talking about the new OP. Anyway. . . . lol Lol, that is quite possibly the most disturbing image ever. Meh, I liked the episode, hamming up what's to come. Genryuusai was pretty damn cool. |
 |
| Its a shame, idont like this new opening. But Thanks god, the re-fill is over xD |
   |
| I too love that the filler story is over, but a part of me can't help but sympathize with the need for an explanation of the current happenings in Karakura town. I'm definitely pumped for what's to come! That being said: Opening = shit End = excellence! (How can you go wrong with Orihime, Rukia, and Rangiku dancing in sexy plaid skirts?!) Yamamoto = badass mo'fo'!! Orihime, way to stand up to the man! Go girl! P.S. This is my second post, I think I'm getting the hang of it. |
| I liked the episode it was good, with the music which was badass, especially with "Yama-Jii" lol. However this is going to be dragged out a lot judging from all the talking etc. |
| Not a bad starter to the next arc. Op. and Ed. aren't that great as far as music but animation was OK. |
| cool music this episode. but grrrr... if Orihime and Ulquiorra talk anymore I think I'll take a nap. |
| back to the main storyline. new opening and ending which i really liked. i really love the opening, probably because of the beat. and i like the ending because of the meaning. as a side note, doesn't the new open/end-ing songs seem to reflect the triangle that -might- be going on between Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime? i've always felt that there could be something else there. but it's probably my feminine imagination going wild. lol. i'm excited to see the fight between Ichigo and Ulquiorra. i stopped reading it right before because i so wanted to see it animated. *prays for no more 'fillers'* |
     |
| The dialogue between Uluqiora and Orihime just blew my mind...Her answers were so witless and boring... then typical damsel in distress scene- Ichigo appeared just in the right time... But for a moment I thought too that Uluqiora is going to molest her...he would if Bleach were a shoujo anime (:- that is a recurring theme in all the shoujo series... and the hollow + girl scene- what a waste of time... milesperminute said: cool music this episode. but grrrr... if Orihime and Ulquiorra talk anymore I think I'll take a nap. True...for a villain he is quite talkative...(: |
 |
| The episode felt rather more like another filler x.x |
| finally back to the storyline... and this episode is rather slow.. |
| Finally a good episode, can't wait to see the captain vs espada fight! |
 |
| nothing new happened. they are thrownig too much time away in every episode. |
| OP and ending were crap like usual (in Bleach) and episode itself was decent. Bleach is sinking deeper and deeper all the time. First ~60 episodes were really good shonen anime. When bounto arc started quality dropped like rock and it hasn't gone up ever since. |

Because I am hoping that the quality rises and even now I can watch main story episodes without being bored. It is not unwatchable. Some parts like main fights are still pretty good. I am just sad that how much quality has dropped from the beginning. In my opinion of course... |

| wow, didnt think i would resort to using my method of watching an episode as in the earlier naruto shippuuden episodes, holding the video tracker and dragging it right. |
| It seems a lot of people don't like the OP. I'll say I don't like it either but that's what I said about the last one, and all of the others and now I love em all. But about the episode, it was good. Let's see some Ichigo/Ulquiorra action. |
