Oh dear, does Ichigo have any other reason to fight, other than to go around, and protect everyone?

It's pretty ridiculous how a Getsuga Tenshou could defeat 6 liutenants.

Yeah, I usually get annoyed by fights that stretch out 2-3 episodes, but equally annoyed that they didn't show any of the fight, c'mon at least a minute. We haven't even really seen Ichigo fight yet have we?

I find it interesting how there's no recap so far and the fights are much shorter now. I'm certainly not complaining... I assume there will be longer fights later on, but let's hope no recaps :)

I don't read the manga but maybe I should do that, that's Ichigo kindness of protecting people.
He isn't that strong as he was before, wonder how he going to fight now.

Especially considering how much stronger than the originals they were and how Ichigo was low on power, but he is the hero... plotkai and all that jazz.

Feel the Regai Rengi fight could have been way better if it stayed one on one and chad finished with El Muerte ; )

Eh, 4/5

Which is why, i consider this episode complete bullcrap. I don't care if Ichigo is the protagonist there is absolutely no way whatsoever he could win. He is fighting alone against 6 reigais (one of which can use bankai) T_T

I'm giving this episode a 2/5

If his Shinigami Powers were dissapearing, whats stopping him from using hollow powers
If your going to complain that Yu-Gi-Oh! Mangas are on the top NY times manga best sellers, you must not realize how popular Card games are(as well as the fact that you get a free card).

His shinigami powers and hollow powers are one in the same. If either one disappears, they both disappear. Do you not remember Zangetsu telling Ichigo that he and hollow Ichigo were once the same being?

He was low on power, but he has been strongest being in the universe so he had "enough" power to fight.

lmfao, okay episode.
Ichigo used his powers again...? wowza.
I still don't see why he did that, he could've just threw all the Regai into the portal and they wouldn't have been able to leave again.
aha ahh well
Liked the fights.. they were okay,
but they seem to be dropping in quality recently... ahh well
Looking forward to episode 324?

The ultimate battle to decide who is the greatest jobber, if only the real Renji hadn't interfered so we could see the outcome.

Next week is gonna be badass, double Kenpachi fight, and it looks like more of the Yama vs Uki/Shunsui battle.

Double Kenpachi will be insane power mode 9000 but why do they have to have the reigai's fighting their double? I've moaned about this before! it's a waste of a perfectly good plot device to be able to have a Grand Melee Soul Society Knockout Battle Royale but instead we mostly get doubles, or fights that have already happened! Even Kyoraku and Ukitake Vs Yamamoto! Argh! Why not have, say, Byakuya and Soi Fon taking on the captain? Or any other combination of two captains that hasn't already been done for pete's sake. Arrrggghhhhh

This show is like crack for me. I dont feel good when I get it, but I feel terrible if I miss it!

Since this arc revolve about space and time I feel that Ichigo will somehow return into FGT mode so that he defeat the ennemy of this arc (Probably with the help of Nozomi as she seem to be a key to this space and time tech) and this time he'll lose the entirety of his power and time skip.

I mean even if filler badass FGT Ichigo is always welcomed.

That was a waste of 24 mins. Why do they first come up with a filler with a pretty decent plot, but make it impossible for us viewers to enjoy, because they execute it so poorly? -.-

This episode was not bad. We saw a good fight between the two Renjis and Chad, and Ichigo terminated six Reigais. But I'm still waiting for the answer why Nozomi is so important for the Reigais. Why do they want to capture her? Because she can open the gate between dimensions of time and space?

Well, considering he defeated 3 (or was it 4?) lieutenants with his fists in the Rescue Rukia arc(named it that, don't remember the real name) when barely healed and not in bankai mode.Makes it quite possible for him to defeat 6 lieutenants in bankai with a getsuga tensho.

not the best episode in my opinion.
I think they could've made is way more badass...

But really? ONE shot of Getsuga Tensho in Bankai form killed all of those captains that were after Ichigo? They aren't THAT weak.
Or did they just shorten the fight to about 30 seconds when in reality it was several hours...

I don't know. It would've been kinda cool to see Ichigo fight one on one with evil Rukia. But he pretty much killed her instantly.

It does look like he did oneshot them. But they were "only" leutnants, not captains, none of them used Shikai or even Bankai at that point. It's not like you would always fight with full power, otherwise, Ichigo wouldn't have needed to go to Bankai, so they were considerably weaker then if they had done that. Also, he was winded after that and immediately dropped his bankai, he didn't 'save' anything for another opportunity, but put it all into that one shot.

Even if you take out the factor of plot/main guy, he defeated several guys way stronger before. Like, Byakuya, who Renji barely managed to reach, and Renji *did* use Bankai back then. Ichigo got way stronger since then.

So the fact that one of the leutnants could have used bankai (which he didn't) doesn't mean that much. Or take all those arrancar. They are all at least captain level, many captains had a lot of trouble. And the only non-captain to defeat one of the espada is Rukia, with the power of plot, and Hachigan, but he's a visored.

It's a shame that they didn't show more of it, but it's not really out of question given the history.

I wonder if there's a reason why the clones aren't killing the originals. I suppose it's possible it's just because this is filler and no one can die, but I'm not so sure. At least I hope there's a reasonable explanation. I wonder if the bad guy is planning on remaking the clones that were killed and that's why the fights now are so short.

On the other hand it would be actually ridiculous if he had problems with lieutenants since he won an epic battle with Aizen.

It seems like wishful thinking. This arc has been especially inconsistent. The Regai are supposed to be stronger, but Ichigo took out half of them with one weakened bankai move.

Nozumi is probably one of the most annoying characters. She has yet to do anything but walk around and mope. She is barely even appreciative of Ichigo's efforts. I get that Ichigo is a good dude who protects people, but I have seen no reason why he would want to protect her.

I just look forward to this filler arc to be finished. If I wasn't such a nut about watching every episode in order, I would consider skipping through to the next arc!

But that's one of his likable traits ^.^

I was hoping to see El Muerte, though, not gonna lie ;P

I knew Nozomi would eventually warm up to Ichigo ;] He's not a little bitch like Kon is, LOL xD pestering the girl to answer his questions and flaunting around his "heroism" bahahah

The omake is funny, as usual. Genryuusai-sama is being too nice to the Ukitake reigai ;3 as much as I adore Ukitake-taichou, his reigai is another story .__.

I am really surprised with what Ichigo is doing that he hasn't lost his powers.
