| Great episode, Stark's move was badass~ It's always good to see Hitsugaya and Hiyori quarreling~ |

KritikalMotion said: A lot more to him then just face to face boring fighting or shooting beams of energy at people (herp derp) wat ? XD oh and btw at this point what is Lilinette? the wolfs or who ? )) since the guns disappeared |
| The wolfs are part of their souls, but dunno where's Lilinette xD |
narcoman said: The wolfs are part of their souls, but dunno where's Lilinette xD Lillynette and Starrk are two parts of the same soul. They explained it a bit differently in the anime than in the manga, but Starrk does say more than once that he and Lillynette are one and the same. The wolves are just a part of his energy, like everything else. Another kind of cero. |

smokes said: its just didnt suit his character thats all.. it wasnt expected from HIM.. its good ofc if you look from the good side ;) That was the point. As he said before, his characteristic is to be uncharacteristic. In other words, he's deliberately unpredictable. By the way, it can be said that he IS treating Starrk with honor by respecting him enough to refuse to pull any punches with him. Playing "with the kid gloves on" would be to show no respect to Starrk and his ability. Also...something you said earlier, that it was stupid of Shunsui to NOT use his Bankai right away...one basic tenet of strategy is to not show your hand immediately. If you show every trick you have immediately, anyone left AFTER your fight now has a chance to plan for it. It only makes sense to keep it hidden until he knows that he HAS to use it. Common sense. |

| Starrk's moves are awesome!~ .. |
| What about Rose and Love's Bankai's. |
| Finally! Someone on this godforsaken show takes this shit seriously. While everyone is talking, arguing amongst themselves, not using their bankai for stupid-ass reasons, and getting themselves nearly killed for the sake of some absurd sense of pride, Kyouraku stabs Coyote in the back. Thank you. Other than that, it was just another pointless episode of Bleach. |
| This episode rocked! Dude, Love and Rose are waaay cool! And here comes kyoraku's Kageoni next week :D And lol at the ending with Ichi |
| rose is such a rock star...from an 80's hair band... with flamenco influences lol. stark is cool, i wonder how tite kubo comesup with the names for the espada, they're pretty epic lilynette gingerback and coyote stark omg |
| How did that weird laid-back captain manage to hurt him? Ichigo + bankai + hollow mask + ichigos most powerful attack VS #4 espada (who took regeneration instead of power) first release = #4 espada standing completely unaffected. You would think thatit would require at least old beard boss captain + bankai + mask to hurt #1 espada + release |
| Nice ending with the back attack to Stark. |
 |
smokes said: you have a bankai -_- use it and play fair.) anyways from the preview Stark is not dead yet I think something is wrong with his bankai... ....because for some reason he refuse to use it ...maybe its too powerful / it has some flaw |

You would think thatit would require at least old beard boss captain + bankai + mask to hurt #1 espada + release I don't see what is weird in hurting him? Didn't you saw he was from behind. If Ichigo managed to to get a clear stab opportunity against Ulqiora his sword would still have hurt him even in Bankai mode. And that laid-back captain can kick Ichigo's ass easily if Ichigo tries to fight him with just his bankai. His one of the oldest and strongest captains. madsweeney said: smokes said: its just didnt suit his character thats all.. it wasnt expected from HIM.. its good ofc if you look from the good side ;) That was the point. As he said before, his characteristic is to be uncharacteristic. In other words, he's deliberately unpredictable. Exactly. The guy is a little loony. No one got how he is by now? His basically decent but also a little crazy and childish. His not overly serious to take the whole "fight with honor" thing to heart. His a little like a child. Is like a little boy that goes and hits his sister on the back and then you tell him he shouldn't do that and he just ask why. It's just that he combines that with a mature smart man making a complete mess of an uncharacteristic character. I mean he tried to hit Stark before using his hat while Stark wasn't looking. Stark even made a comment about it about not expecting him to be that kind of man. And anyone remember Soul Society? How he first tried to escape the old man instead of fighting him. |

| Pretty good episode but those pack of 'spirit' wolves were such a blatant rip-off of Gotenk's signature ghost move in DBZ XD |
 |
| I wonder why the hell didn't Rose and Love release their Bankai when they were getting mauled Starrk's wolves. I wonder how many of you anime exclusives will drop bleach in the next 3 months. |
| do they even 'have' bankai ? ) |
| Probably, but I don't remember exactly who of them were captains and who weren't, except that little ugly chick-she was a lietenaunt tho she could learn it in 100 years... |

| Best thing about this episode was the OSAKA-BEN I adore it! |

Yes - he is uncharacteristic hero but I think he isn't childish. He doesn't like fighting and he will do anything to avoid fight. In Soul Society, his conversation with Sado wasn't childish(but I don't remember what they said to each other). |
| love starrk's ability |
the only way to stop a gamer from playing is either: beat them, or wait until they get bored (though 2% percent suffer seizures  |
The fight was OK, Lillinette suprisingly, isn't annoying to me. But this all is just a prelude to a much better match up hopefully soon. |
 |
| The episode was ok, nothing really special. |
| Yeah Stark was stabbed from behind, but do you really think that's going to take him out? No way man! |
 |
| Love and the other Vizard should just go bankai |
| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| Staark, you so badass. :> |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| Cool Wolves, and Shunsui stabs him at the end, Round 2 begin! |
Anitnelav said: Staark, you so badass. :> loved the wolves |
| I wonder what Ukitate and Kyouraku have been up to all this time while the Vizards have been getting their asses kicked by Stark. |
 |
| Hiyori and Lisa say that the time they can seriously fight is limited, but if they have been training as Vizard's for the past 100 years or so, how come that time is so limited? It's nice to see that Shunsui finally got off his ass. lol. |
| yawn... |
| Starrk and Lillynette's past really intrigues me, I want to learn more about them. It was nice seeing them basically fodder two Vaizards with masks on when they got a little serious. The Wolf theme is awesome and perfectly defines the them. That back stab was low, but that's how a real battle is. Also, Hitsugaya and Hiyori are at it once again. ^^ |
| Every episode with Stark and his cute grey wolves is good) I really was on the Stark's side in this battle, cause I love hime the way more than Rose and Love.... |
 |
| Starrk is so badass with his pack of wolves. I'm pretty sure the stab from the back wasn't enough to finish him. |
 |
smokes said: Dude, Kyoraku already tried to strike Stark off-guard at least one or twice before, or have you missed the initial Stark fight? Doing it is totally Kyoraku.^still attacking from behind is a lame/childish move.. how many fights have you seen in anime? there are tons of this.. when the Villain comes and attacks a hero from the back.. cause he was weak or loosing(villain) and was afraid of dieing..so he kills from the back when the good guy doesnt notice.. the same goes here.. Kuyokaru is a captain ffs.. and a strong one.. attacking from behind is a lame move from him = you have a bankai -_- use it and play fair.) anyways from the preview Stark is not dead yet Anyways, this was a great episode. Keep them coming! |
  |
| Aha the footsteps bit at the end :D |
 |
| Pretty decent episode with some nice action! Lets see what's next! |
 |
| Boring episode. Starrk is really annoying to be honest. Just attack with your full power and die already, geez. |
| On to the next 1. |
  |
| Nice episode. Cool wolves :) |
