I really wish that the anime showed the entire "Turn back the Pendulum" scenes that were in the manga. I think it adds a lot more to the characters and events. Especially to Urahara, Mayuri, and to Urahra's little "helper" who was actually quite powerful and high-ranking in soul society. But instead they glazed over that in one episode and chose to spend more time on this Yammy fight for some reason that makes no sense.

what annoys me is that they still keep on believing in Tousen inspite of him betraying them, some how thinking they can turn him to the way he was again...

i've seen enough 'turn back the pendulum scenes to last me a lifetime...

soooo sick of yami WHY WON'T HE JUST DIE!!!!!
also, all the hollow transformations are so gay - they seem to make no difference to fighting ability whatsoever (except ichigo's when he's being controlled by his inner hollow)

The best part was when Byakuya and Zaraki started fighting completely ignoring that fat ass..By the way it's about time someone kills him.I can't stand him any more.
Tousen's fight was great.Even though i despise him i have to say he is incredibly strong.And he is blind?I don't see him have any kind of problem..

What we saw today was the last of the Kenpachi/Byakuya vs. Yammy fight shown so far in the manga.

Episode was great overall. Fight should last 1-2 more episodes, so, more epicness coming!


I know! I really want to see the next few chapters come to life in the manga, so much in store :)

What annoyed me about this episode is the fact that Hisagi and Komamura can't get it through their heads that Tosen was playing them the whole time. I mean he was under Aizen's thumb long before either of them became soul reapers. So the fact that they both think he can come back to the Soul Society is a joke. The only he would be able to go back is in a body bag. Yamamoto would never allow if any other way.

Other than that it was a good episode, nice action. I always like awesome displays of power! :D

This is a real spoiler

What an opponent to defeat is that Yammy, the more damage you do to him the stronger he gets. No one is safe against him. And almost a fight between Kenpachi and Byukauya.

Mayuri continues to interest me. He just does NOT seem like part of SS. He seems like a third side waiting for something, sitting there. He remains an enigma and he obviously was placed by story in hm for a reason, not to mention his findings in Szayel's lab we never clearly saw. Something tells me that he will have a huge significance in the story latter on....


well, from what i remember, he was actually a criminal in secret SS jail, and urahara asked for him to help with then research place thing?

im digging through my mind trying to think of it >.>

Well, he was never one to trust in the first place, he just tags along to disect things imo n.n

what i goin to say it apllay to previous episode too!!
What is with this soul reapers.Zaraki narrowly defeated an opponent who was number 6 on the espada list without their eyepatch, and now looks like strongest in the world and doing what he wont to this espada who is number 0 on espada list with his eyepatch!i mean he losted against ichigo and then he had only shikai.But now he can fight against strongest opponents without sweat.

I guess zaraki is getting more experience like pokemon in every fight to the death, he always says "I need to get stronger" XD

Wow.I really enjoyed this episode for some reason.I'm increase my rating from 7 to 8.

Btw I cant believe Hiyori is down already.You wait an entire century to get revenge,and then you screw it up because you didn't have any battle plans or tactics.
What an idiot.

Tousen needs to die a most miserable death. I always hated him and he`s not doing himself any favours right now. Hisagi and Komamura are wasting their heart and breath on trash like him, they wont reach him. My respect for Hisagi has definitely sky-rocketed.

Also, if Tousen can hollowfi... Gin and Aizen should be no exception. Hope to see them in action soon.

Meh, I did pass the Yami fight as he's one boring ass villain, to the point where he seems a filler to me.

The vizard Tousen plot twist surprised me, tbh. He looks nightmarish.

"Just kill eachother already, if he gets any larger, I'll have a difficult time dissecting him!" a quote from Mayuri that basically summed up my opinion at the time. Surely if Yammy keeps getting larger, he'll kill himself? xD
