I was also going to complain about next episode being a filler, but there are enough comments :P

Wanted to ask, anyone knows what happened the second time Ichigo tried to use the mask against Yammy? I doubt it's related to how long he can maintain it, Rukia also pointed that it was going thru a change, never really paid attention to the changes in the mask design.

It was nice episode. Mayuri dialogues was funny. I love this. New experiments :D

About Yammy: kido 33 + Kenpachi atack (probably swords) can cut one of his leg but tensa zangestu(atack on the neck) just made something "small". Is his legs so weak - hierro on his leg isn't good enough?

I wish they would make their filler into actual character development. Give Unohana an episode, or one of the other Shinigami we do not see often. How about Juishro's suboordinates? Someone other than the usual crew would be nice.

First thing I do when starting a Bleach episode: Skipping forward to about 3:50, where spoiler-part, OP and recap are all done. ...And then realizing I should've skipped all the way to 5:35, since there was more recapping.
And Rukia's got quite keen eyesight, doesn't she? >.>..... I had to lol when she said she "didn't quite see" how the markings in Ichigo's mask looked. Seeing as she was that far away, she should've just been able to discern that his face might be covered by a mask.
Ichigo is rather pathetic right now actually.

Also, they really don't get far in an episode...
Oh and fillers shouldn't exist.
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.

Meaning we'll see Orihime in an arabian outfit. Yeah.

Anyway, filler talk aside, I don't know about anyone else, but this show had some continuity problems that bugged the CRAP out of me even when I read this in the manga. First of all, I don't care what vegetables or vitamins Rukia takes to have good eyesight. There is no way Rukia could identify the marking design Ichigo's hollow mask from 1-200 meters away. And since when did Rukia see Ichigo's mask anyway?! I don't remember Rukia ever seeing Ichigo's mask before now. Orihime, Uryu, Yoruichi, Urahara, Tessai, all the Vizards, Byakuya, and all the Espada Ichigo fought have seen his mask. But not Rukia.

I mean, when was Rukia aware of Ichigo's Hollow form anyway? She mentioned about "the hollow inside him" way back when Grimmjow first invaded Karakura town. But still, who told her about it and why could that important detail be shown in the story? There's no way she could've seen his mask in the Soul Society arc. She was at the repentance cell most of the time.

To be quite honest, I wouldn't have noticed that change in Ichigo's mask design had it not been mentioned. Other than that, I'm glad Ichigo is finally heading back to Karakura town, and I had a feeling that fillers would be showing up soon.

im not rely sure but if i had to guess its because his new mask is a step up from the last so he cant maintain it as long/as many times as before.

i probly wont be watching the next episode....at all. i rely want to see what makes everyone so scared of unohana!! dont sleep on her she has to be badass lol

This episode was decent. A lot of standing around and posturing though, which at this point bores me. And even if the filler is only a week or so, they're so f*cking close to the manga (which doesn't really move at a brisk pace itself) that I don't see how they're not going to need a lot more filler material.

how come ages ago ichigo was able to draw with kenpachi without even having a bankai (and i don't remember too well but i'm pretty sure he also beat byakuya) but now when he's had way more experience, can stay in bankai seemingly forever and has some ownage hollow transformation he's useless?

IDK maybe because he battled ulquiorra, died, then battled grimmjow, then ulquiorra, died again, then ulquiorra's 2nd form...without resting.

Waaaaaay back in the SS arc, Ichigo barely beat Kenpachi with just his shikai and he was getting a lot of help from Zangetsu as well.

Ichigo had learned his bankai and used it in the fight with Byakuya but he was still loosing. it was his uncontrolled hollow that dealt some serious damage and that evened the odds.

Ichigo having trouble now is probably due to him fearing his new total hollow transformation. Aka he is having doubts if he can control himself again. At least that's how I see it.
We will never forget those that have fallen for our freedom!

Yeah when ichigo fought with kenpachi it was more than shikai. But he was loosing against byakuya just because he was getting tired too fast, not because he was weak.
And Ichigo wasn't THAT scared to give that guy just a scrath, d'oh...even when he wasn't controling the mask he was more powerfull...

As for the fillers i don't know if i'm angry or happy..The last episodes were so so slow,actionless and full of previews , that made me really frustrated.So if the fillers are funny and have some kind of plot, i think i won't mind..But these are mere speculations..Next week I 'll know for sure!

Well, about that... (I think this is a spoiler yes. Seriously, it is. Don't read it if you mind spoilers. Then again, it's not like it's anything major : D)
And thus I'm glad he doesn't run completely out of it~ xD
Oh and I almost forgot, yeah he's obviously pretty much always in bankai.

Well, he stopped Soukyoku with bare sword in shikai. This beast is like 1 000 000 of normal zanpaktou.
Well, I think he is more usefull in Karakura town and Kenpachi & Byakuya was "joking" :D

Not really. The Soukyoku just didn't atack in full power, they were saying smth like "run cuz the next atack will be serious"...

anyway, if the atack were in full power, that would just prove how stupid is ichigo's power representation

Plus no one cares what the hell did they say, kenpachi was obviously stronger when he cut off that guy's leg

Yeah, but even this small amount of Soukyoku's power could kill Rukia without any effort.

Normal killing like stabbing, slashing etc. I mean which only Soukyoku can. This all things to taking hogyoku from Rukia.
So even this small amount of power can do this, so Ichigo was very powerfull back then.

We didn't actually see how hogyoku works, so you can't tell anything about that, may be he'd just make a big hole with his fire and shit. That's already not about power amount but about power type

You mean Soukyoku, aren't you?
Aizen mention about extracting Hogyoku (this stone) from Rukia. There is 2 method:
- I don't remember
- Rukia's execution. Soukyoku will
evaporate soul with ultra high temperature destructive force
- 62 ep, 6:21
+ ~62 ep, Someone said about his power is equivalent of 1 000 000 zanpaktuo

Oh well, may be ^_~

another variant will be that soukyoku didn't really atack, he was just moving to rukia and GOING to atack, and ichigo stopped that bird's beak that wasn't even from fire as I remember(or it was?). well, dunno, if to suppose ichigo really stopped like 1 000 000 with shikai, it sounds like total bullshit. That means 1 000 000 are no big deal, may be ichigo was strong but the captains weren't much worse...so, or the soukyoku is no big deal, or it didn't really atack seriously.
