| This episode remembered me that, I'm strangely very fond of Cirucci, for some reason. |
 |
| Entertaining episode. I thought it would be one of the worst for this cour, but it ended being enjoyable, time went fast while watching it. Mayuri was the MVP here... I mean, he's the true MVP for this entire arc. YORUICHI THE QUEEN!!!! (not in her best form yet tho) Seeing some of the Arrancars back on action again was nice, and the staff kept the hilarious interaction between Bazz and Renji, that makes Bazz seem more "friendly" or likeable as a character, which is interesting giving his goal in the future. |

| banger after banger after banger episodes bleach will be my fav anime no matter what i will not change my opinion. |

| Hitsugaya is now a zombie too damn |
| Holy squeepigs!! There is just too much story to unpack this eps. Im going to have to watch it a few times before I can get my thoughts together and give comment. At the moment, just a lot of big hitters, or even people left are now on battlefield. Zombie ice guy. This shit is getting real. |
 To have you, Id give a billion lives A-Chan best girl |
| I was dreading this episode since the cour started. Glad Yumichika's lines to her were toned down considerably (or were they? I keep hearing about different recordings), but I still think this whole scenario with Giselle could've been handled with much more tact. Ugh, the discourse is gonna be hellllllllllllll... At least Mayuri said the iconic line. |

| Oh shit. Twitter will have a complete meltdown once they see what happened in this episode. |
 |
| The bait and switch...I thought we were going to see some amazing fights but nope, just JoJo and the tropalicious crew. Why is Ichigo so hung up on Ishida, they never liked each other and he was always a dick. I swear Orihime's tits get bigger each episode and her bimbo mentality. STOP SIDELINING ICHIGO, Bro been MIA this whole season. |

This was actually a good episode. Made up for some flaws in the previous one. Although I'm a bit tired of watching side fights, and still find it silly that Ichigo has basically been back and forth to the Royal Palace this entire season, I'm rewarded with some characters actually using their heads a bit.
That ending - oh NO! :(((
I don't care enough for any of the letter quincies to be interested in the Giselle drama, but it does seem unnecessary. Don't understand what was the point of introducing a gender queer character only to make fun of them. I hope it gets more context in the next episode, but I kinda just want to get back to Ichigo and friends.

| @yasm about Giselle - he is a man, just in woman's clothes. Confirmed by manga's author. Shame that anime toned down dialogues from manga between him and Yumichika. It would be even funnier seeing people's reactions |

| @82926 I heard the Japanese broadcast kept the semen line, and that they removed it from Disney + and Hulu, but I cant find any source to this and I've looked around and found no difference so far. |
| Mayuri's so funny. The way he acts cocky is so different from other characters in Bleach (where everyone's cocky). |
| Yoruichi is back after so long. Missed her so much. She looks so pretty. Captain Kurotsuchi's fight is looking so cool. I liked how he's handling the situation against that girl, so calm. I hate her personality so much. Kill her already. Felt bad for Bambietta. Didn't think that would happen. |

| @k11chi the seiyuu is just on another level. He's a veteran who also voices Frieza from DBZ/DBS. But I feel like Mayuri's more sarcastic than cocky... |

| @SeiteiSouther No they removed it in the Japanese broadcast too. All lines are identical with the exception of this one. 精液臭いよキミ was changed to バレバレだよキミ. Edit: Wait no I just downloaded a TV broadcast of the episode and he's really saying semen in that one. First time I'm seeing such blatant differences in voice lines lmao. Comparison The scene where he says he got wet was also changed: Comparison2 |

| This is why Kubo is based, and he respects his own work. A stark contrast to how other shounen mangaka like Oda and Fujimoto deal with this topic. It's too bad Pierrot had to tone down his genuinely funny sense of humor, but it takes bravery to even refrain from censoring the whole thing. Bravo. And btw, Giselle is not trans. It's just a crossdresser. |

| @yagakimilover How the f*ck is this peak episode??? Do you people have any taste at all? Hiramatsu would have done us all a favour if he had cut off the whole zombie fights from the anime. The worst chapters of the final arc by far. |
| Episode was pretty awful, and it wasn't just the manga content that was the problem; I enjoyed the manga chapters that this episode adapted when I re-read the manga last month, but somehow the anime made everything feel really boring here. There wasn't any amazing animation, nor any particularly cool action scenes, nor was the pacing great either, so this episode turned out to be mediocre bordering on trash. The fact that the most interesting part that folks will talk about is Giselle's gender kinda says it all... |

This episode was just one big wtf moment after another. Apparently Gigi is a dude, he killed Bambi and turned her into a zombie, and also Kurotsuchi turned the fodder Arrancar into zombies, and fucking Toshiro is a zombie too?
| @AnimeNerd99 Indeed, this new episode of Zombieland Saga was sure wild. |

| @IHateMidPiece I was looking forward to the "smells like semen" line from Yumichika but I guess that wouldn't fly on today's television. LOL |
| Lovely episode. The animation was good, it was nice seeing the Arrancar again (especially Cirucci, I have always liked her despite being a very minor characters) and the madness of Giselle and Mayuri was pretty fun. They also made Bambietta even more pitiful than in the manga, I really felt bad for her despite her being such a bitch. Was cool they didn't forget about poor Komamura either. |
 |
| Damn Yumichika and Mayuri doing their best to carry this episode. Shame the zombie stuff is just as dumb as ever. Just a way to pad out the arc with defeated characters |

@SeiteiSouther @MomoSinX Yumichika also has another line where he mentions "Semen" in the Japanese version. They just muted that part for the international. So he still says the line but you watched the censored version. |
| And after a week's break, the anime is back~. And we're continuing right where we left off. Good thing Ichigo and the company bounced back to the action after Uryuu joined Yhwach and Jugram. It was a quick and shift moment, but I get a feeling it was mostly thanks to Chad's reassurance. Of course, Orihime too helped, but I feel like Chad got that small spotlight to be Ichigo's main support this time around which felt just nice. It was also interesting to see shinigami picking themselves after that blast Yhwach and company left because in the manga there wasn't such a scene. I must admit I was genuinely surprised we saw Iba and Komamura. That was just a nice addition the anime team made, along with Byakuya surrounded by the Quincies and Renji protecting Rukia from that blast. Little additions like those really add to things in the long run as those explain what happened to other characters when something was going on. Sure, it's nice to see the main gang in action and follow them, but it just gives this feeling of many characters and stories, when there are little bits like these in anime (and manga). Lol! Renji talking smack about Bazz-B. xD Just for Bazz-B to compliment Renji. That was an adorable moment, even though Renji ended up pissing off Bazz-B with his chicken comment...like yes. It's nice chickens lay eggs and all, but I'm not sure if a guy would like such a compliment. Poor Bazz-B. His Burner Finger Four was very cool. Reminded me again just how good the animation is in Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War ~. Oh, so they really went for that scene with Yumichika revealing Giselle isn't biologically a girl, huh? It really wasn't that clever way of Yumichika wanting to make more accurate points of Giselle. But I suppose they just wanted that scene to be added, because...I'm not sure. I don't think anyone would have minded if that scene had been fully scrapped, because what would have mattered in the end if we wouldn't have been sure of Giselle's biological gender? Giselle identifies herself as a girl, so it should have been fine. But I suppose for some reason or another, they just wanted to push that little niche fact about Giselle. At least they tried their best with that scene. That's all that I'll write about it. Now moving on~. To be honest, I was dreading this part of the anime because zombies are a big nope to me. Luckily the zombies in this didn't look as bad as those could, otherwise, I would have had to skip quite a lot of content from this episode, as it centered around quite heavily around zombies. I'm kind of glad Yoruichi was introduced in such a neutral manner, unlike in the manga. Now the focus was on the task of 'how to get Ichigo, Orihime, and Chad to Soul King's palace?' Kisuke's explanation was interesting and I'm glad we learned what Yoruichi was up to, since up until now we hadn't seen her! Not to mention what exactly was Hiyori's, Lisa's, and Hachigen's task at the World of the Living. This all actually made me question if Kisuke (and Mayuri) did foresee Yhwach going to the Royal Palace and if they allowed such a thing to happen on purpose. Because now remember, Kyoraku all but hinted Ichibe allowed on purpose such a thing to occur...is there a secret scheme going on or what? Because that all seemed like such a big mishap, I wouldn't say all was just 'pure coincidence'. Seeing Yumichika and Ikkaku fighting against zombie Bambietta was very nice. They really work very well together and I believe before this we hadn't really seen them fighting together. At least I can't recall such an event as usually, they would work separately I recall Ikkaku insisted on fighting alone against his own opponent and Yumichika felt shamed for his kido skills. But this time around, it seemed like they had managed to solve such issues and worked together quite well. Too bad their fight against Bambietta was a short one. But it was nice to see sunflower!Mayuri enters the stage~. Mayuri going against Bambietta and Giselle looked visually very cool. Though when Giselle brought her Gotei Thirteen zombies, I almost snorted when Mayuri explained he wouldn't be able to go against them because of the 'goodness of his heart'. Yeah, like he hadn't previously in his life killed many of his subordinates. Not at all! ...but in all seriousness, I think he just wanted to flaunt his own zombies to Giselle. (And yes, just moments later when Mayuri told off both Ikkaku and Yumichika, proved he is still the same old Mayuri. Now with more facts under his belt that he can use against other people to do what he wants, though.) A good way to bring out already dead characters. I must admit, zombified Toshiro wearing a Wandenreich outfit suited somehow extremely well to him. I still feel sorry for him, though. The fact he turned into a zombie and now has to go against his allies...not good at all. But we all will see more about that in next week's episode as the whole zombie thing is still far from over! (Again, I'm happy the zombies don't look like typical ones.) |

| @MomoSinX oh it was in the episode. But only in the Japanese TV broadcast. The entire line was there. It was done pretty well too. |
|
| Hearing the original gotei 13 OST gave me goosebumps. It made the fight with captain Mayuri and zombie Bambietta more epic. Mayuri and Nemu countered Bambietta's reishi bombs by using a reishi locking device. It temporarily stops the impact of reishi for a fixed amount of time. In this case, Mayuri ordered to stop for 3 seconds. And voila! It got deflected upon Giselle and zombie Bambietta. Now it's just Giselle's zombified army vs Mayuri's four arrancars. Zombie Bambietta got sexy blasted away from that flamboyant arrancar. Biggest plot twist of this entire episode was seeing zombie Toshiro. Giselle did my boi dirty. |

| boring asf tbh some good sakuga cuts tho |
| most episodes have been very meh this cour but i liked this one, still they really wasted bambietta by killing her, so disappointed with that. orihime constantly looks like she's about to burst and i wanna be there, can't even focus on anything else because of her. good to see yoruichi again and also charlotte lol that long-ass attack name felt nostalgic hearing it after so long. renji and bazz-b kinda have a fun thing going on together. |

| @DarkDooM2 I never particularly cared for those lines in the manga, but if they were going to keep them in I'm surprised they didn't just stick to their guns. Very telling that they censored them for the international release. |
