Sigh, Bleach anime disappoints me yet again.

Hearing Gintoki Kensei say Bankai seemed so awkward.

Boo Hiyori only got shanked rather than cut in half :(.

I bet it wouldn't have been censored if they put Hyori's top half in one box and her lower half in another and as she was falling, Gin would yell, "TA-DAAAA!!!"
Shinji: "Cool. Now put her back together."
Gin: "There's a step two to that trick?"
Rocky: "Now here's something we hope you really like."

FRUSTRATION!

This severely changes the impact of the moment. If she just got stabbed it wouldn't really matter. I knew there was something up with the way it was done. Then I get here and find out shes not supposed to have a lower half, DAMN IT.

I swear, they better redo this scene for the dvd releases, that's srsly bullshit.

Wonderweiss still creeps me out.
And Mashiro is still awesome, even though it didn't quite play out as she planned.
Also, it's terribly sad how weak Renji, Rukia and Sado are =3=
Protip: I don't really check the forums anymore, so if you want something, take it on my profile.
Is it time for my long-awaited return to the forums? щ(゚Д゚щ) Nope™, probably not.

Not only that, but he's screaming with his mouth close! (in a scene at the end).
Apart from that and Hiyori's stupid monologue, Yami has different number of legs depending on a scene. With Renji he has 8 on one side, then he has like 13-15 when Rukia runs below him and then he has 5 while holding her. As to why Hachi couldn't simply heal Hiyori - blame manga, she got cut in half there and couldn't be healed that easily so she cannot get healed in a censored anime either. Even if it doesn't make any sense...

No, that isn't the reason.

Hachi is missing one hand, thats why...

OMG, this is driving me crazy!!!!
ALL of you people actually WATCH the episode. She didn't JUST get stabbed, Gin ripped his sword out sideways. Yes, he didn't completely cut her in half like in the manga, but he completely separated her torso from her waist from the center of her body all the way right of it.

How its shown after doesn't matter. The fact is, they show him drag his sword through her sideways. "So he didn't cut her jacket." Not hard to explain away.

There was a moment where Yammy grabbed Rukia and honestly I wondered if that was her face or just a smudge on the screen o.o

The animation was totally off at some parts........


That is called ARTWORK!!!!!

Yeah they made a mess of that. Also in the manga he didn't have that much legs if i remember correct and i think his legs where supposed to be white like some hollow trousers so we wouldn't wonder where is his dick while Rukia was running under him.

About the screaming. Well it's a noob question. Everybody knows that screaming in anime and especially shounen increases your power level.

Sort of. In the manga we only see the moment of Kensei releasing his bankai. After this, there wasn't any of that fight at all(that's Kubo for you ^^;).

So animators take full advantage of this and try to add this scene to fill some space.

They would've at least put more blood if they're not going to cut Hiyori's body into half...

This. During that scene I wondered why Yammy was so long. But this whole episode had a terrible art. For example, when Hiyori gets injured, you can clearly see her body is getting cutted in two halves, but when she falls down it became just a stab.

Studio Pierrot, before trying to censor "bad things" try to learn how to make consistent animation.

All I have to say is that after 2 months of NOT watching bleach I decided to catch up on it, and this amount of censoring happens?!?!? ARE YOU SERIOUS? I mean 1st they gotta spend the 1st 5 minutes of the show re-capping that no other show does, and then this crap I'm about 2 seconds away from dropping bleach and the the only reason I haven't is because I've already seen over 250 episodes what won't a few more hurt to see how it ends FUCK THIS I'm taking another 2 month bleach break.

I'm gonna cut straight to the point. A critical and amazing moment, ruined. As I knew it would be because for some reason they've always had the kiddy gloves on for this series. I just don't get it. I just saw a giant lose his leg in One Piece, but this girl can't get a proper execution in this scene? The rest of the episode was mildly entertaining. I always wondered why more of the Vizards didn't use their bankai. Then again it is supposed to be a secret weapon and Wonderweiss is a freak.

It's a shame what they're doing with bleach.... it really is... this ep was probably one of the worse ever ... From the yamy endless legs to the rape of Hyori...

The only thing that I actually enjoyed in this ep was the last part with the mannequins...it was funny xD

Wonderweiss is so weird, but for some reason I like him. And even though Yammy is espada number 0, I don't like him at all. Sure he is powerful and all, yet I find him very annoying. He looks like Giratina from Pokemon or centipede and he talks too much.

Oh yeah, Yammy was still alive. I don`t even want to count him as an Espada, he`s pretty lame imo.

Decent episode. You gotta remember the fight with Yammy is going on while the Captains/Vizards were fighting the other Espada, this is just to tie up lose ends one the other side and also fil in for some time in the episode. I will admit though these recent episodes with all the recaps and filler crap is kinda annoying.

I don't get why people complain about censoring in this episode. I mean, seriously, you thought they will show her body cut in two parts? And it bothers all of you like it changes the story or whatever. We get it. Manga is better. You don't need to say it every episode and complain about censoring. It's not M rated anime.
