I agree in that it does feel like Orihime is a totally different person now, but I am liking the idea of Ichigo getting his powers back, and I'm likin the XCution pad ;) seems like a cool place to chill :)

Actually even a Christianity has a form of pantheism involved: remember all the stuff about God being omnipotent, working in mysterious ways and forms and how any and everything to ever happen can be interpreted as his test or act of his, etc? Its the same stuff, just focused more on deity having an identity. Not to mention the whole "I am Legion" thing(upon which Hollow hierarchy is based upon)

So finally I get to hear about this fullbringer technique in this episode! Gotta admit, its an interesting idea to be able to manipulate an object's soul. The road to getting Ichigo's shinigami powers back should be an exciting one.

And much to my surprise, I'm taking a liking to Riruka too.

LOL Ichigo so quick to get angry and he ALWAYS ask at least 4 questions in one shot! And the other person reply is that he can't answer so many question at the same time, and end up not answering it -.-

The episode explained a lot indeed.
And I think Riruka will become one of my fav characters XD dont know why I just find her awesome, but the misterious guy who attacked Ishida... I hate him even though I dont know who he is and Im not even a fan of Ishida at all. I dont know why I think he is the other person born from a Soul Reaper and a human :I
Well, we'll see ...
great ep - 5/5

I know! Although, I just know that Rukia will come at the most unexpected moment with an epic entrance. ^^

Until then, I'll be somewhat satisfied with Riruka. ^^

Any way, it was nice getting a full blown explanation on what's going on. Fullbring, Chado and Ichigo. I had a wtf moment when Ginjo came out of nowhere with "Our goal is to restore your Shinigami powers". I really hope they can pull it off.

Also, I think Ichigo was yelling a lot because of the shock factor. He deep down desires his powers more than anything but at the same time he forced himself to accept the harsh-reality and attempt to move on. Hearing the possibility of getting them back as soon as he threw away his "Badge" and swallowed all his memories caused him to break out in an unexpected way. (Kind of like how Gin stopped Rukia right before her "execution" and mind-effed her with false hope). He probably felt a surge of electricity inside so he probably got pissed off because he felt pathetic and dependent yet desperate inside. Ginjo getting him to calm down right away and explain slowly and in detail was the right move.

I think the animation of this arc is better then the manga. I was boring reading all this dialogues with Xcution members, but I've enjoyed listening to them in this episode.
Riruka is a bit annoying, Bleach is full of tsundere and over-energic girls.

Riruka-chan looks totally cute until she opens her mouth and starts yelling. LOL

Amazing how she has the hots for Ichigo. So far, I'd like him to stay by himself, but pairing Icchi with Nel isn't a bad idea, bwahahahh x] IchiRuki is okay, I guess. We'll see if I think Riruka would be acceptable too.

"I'll explain everything."

Those are the words I've been waiting to hear, and yet they scare me.

Besides that, Ichigo seems uncharacteristically jumpy and agitated. I get why, but it's odd to see him flipping out over everything and break out into yelling. Also, the art not only changed, but seemingly gained this "glowing" aspect to it with multiple layers of shading. Along with the show feeling a bit more understated, it's like watching a different show.

At least dbz is being revived such a great show and magna but read books they cut off this is the bs. (As they have between all the arc's)sure ichigo get dome training but all and all could have never made and finish the story instead of just stopping sucks.

Lol, my second favourite scene from the anime and manga, where Riruka says Ichigo is so hot and blushes! so cute and he is! <3


Awww, she likes him so much! can't say I blame her ;) He is so hot <3

I honestly find it unbelievable he doesn't have a girlfriend or Chad, both are hot. Well and Orihime, I wish she'd get with Ichigo.

Poor Orihime! and she does seem kinda different now. Her boobs seem kinda bigger too lol.

Chad as a fullbringer is cool and the explanations.

That new character tsundere woman voice is insufferable. Also what have they done to my Inoue's character and it's art style. Much details are removed. Even wonder if they're intentionally doing that.
Nevertheless, like that new power they introduced, manipuating objects by their souls, it's pretty imaginative and inventive. And hope Ichigo gets his power back & meet with Rukia again in some next eps.

Nice explanations to be honest, the fullbrings are definitely interesting, the fact that they can transform and manipulate every souls from every objects is really good, and they can restore Ichigo's shinigami powers, great.
