| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- i didnt realize how i missed ichigo fighting hollows until i saw this episode... he didnt do so well -__- well at least that made him decide to go fullbring and not just cower like a pussy in a corner while his friends and family were protecting him. hopefully in the next episode he finally gets some power back.. ive been waiting for a while now. |

| Nice episode. For not being able to see the Hollow at all and being at pretty much human strength, he fought it pretty well. As far as I can remember, that scene didn't happen in the manga (correct me if I'm wrong), it was a nice addition. Haha! The Shinigami Cup at the end with Ginjou made me laugh. Oh god, the pig thing is in the next episode -_- thaaaat was strange... |
| Oh well, let me just paste my post here then.. since this one looks 'official'. =x _________________ Yuzu so cute with the strawberry (ichigo) hair accessory.. xD and wazzup with the awesome new BGM?? xD the nonsensical ending part featuring Ginjo was so funny. xD Cant get enough of the new ED.. My bf watched the first 2 episode of the new arc (because he like to watch 1 whole arc at once and he reads the manga) and he commented that the OP made Ichigo look like some 'flower boy'.. LOL! xD |
|
| Even if it was all filler basicaly, it wasn't bad really. Im liking how they fillerize the main story, for some reason it just makes it flow better. Doll House next week, hope it makes better sense in anime form... |
 |
| Lol Riruka is totally into Ichigo :D...loved her stalking ... new BGM was awesome! and Ginjo the best at the end :D |
| Very little happened in this episode storywise, but i still liked it and i cant wait for the next episode where they apparently train him by pitting Ichigo against a monster doll... It was nice seeing how stubborn Ichigo was with him being all "Soul Reaper business is over for me. Dont need it anymore." and only until he and his sister get attacked infront of his eyes he decides to go with Ginjo. A lot of humans do this in real life. Nice to see he still has those qualities, even though they don't go well with the hero-model. Jackie looks like a woman from a distance, but up close she still nasty looking. |
| great episode the action is starting up |
| Well atleast it made sense, I guess. A filler that connects to the plot and yet keeps the it away from the manga, speaking of killing two birds with one stone...not bad. And lol@ at Ginjo's explanation at the end. |
| Not from the manga.. Nice to see how Ichigo had to fare because of no powers. I enjoyed it a lot; in the manga, I felt Ichigo's impulsiveness to get the fullbring powers was wrongly portrayed. This made it more interesting. And I love Riruka! She wasn't this annoying and awesome in the manga xD |
| Surprisingly, they adapted this well. In the manga everything seemed rush. This is going to make the plot twist at the more... realistic. Alos love Yukio's voice. I always thought they were put a female seiyu. Way better voice than the oter young boys characters like Toshiro or Jinta |
| . |
| Wewt, seems like Ichigo will get his powers back, finally! |
| Ginjou in the end was LOL.xD Ichigo training will start next week.;) |
 |
| This episode had a nice little fight sequence. Hope it gets better though. It's not that I'm against this arc or anything but it really hasn't piqued my interest yet. |
| I bet Ichigo felt pretty useless there. |

Nice to see he still has those qualities, even though they don't go well with the hero-model. Really? From both Chad's dialogue and his overall monologues, it seems he was just in denial of actually wanting the powers back. He literally is disillusioned with normalcy and unable to admit that being normal sucks for him as he still has the whole need to protect. As Chad said, he might try to deny it but ever since he lost the powers he has been completely pathetic unable to do one thing he was doing ever since his mother died - protecting others with his power. Having others protect HIM only adds to his insult, as Ichigo seems to have sort of subconscious need to be the one protecting and NOT the one being protected. Hollow thing made him actually realize and confront the fact that he even though having no power, still longs for it and tries to be there, as if forgetting he is "normal" now. |
 |
| If that was filler, I'm very hopeful for this new Bleach. |
 |
| Hmm more additional scenes to the plot, but not bad at all. |
 |
| I want these to build up so i can watch like..10 of them in a row........not happening so far. I'm hooked. |

I didn't see it like that, but now i do. That was a good explanation. |
| will this anime ever get some new soundtrack!? |
| Riruka's hair must be pretty 'flexible' or have some kind of control muscles, otherwise it wouldn't 'move' like that just because of Kurosaki. |
'Everything is impossible until proven possible.' - Me |
| I really liked it. The omake was nice :) |
| Liked it . I Want to see what powers he will recover , Shinigami of course , but the full power he had? |
 |
| not half bad but i want to see some fights!!! |
 Are you the bloody applause monkey? Keep your sh*t comments to yourself or go troll on 4chan. |
| Yey! Some juicyness with the Fullbringers, and I love Riruka, she's a breath of fresh air in a group of overly serious jaded types! Cant wait for the training to begin! The manga was a little confus at times! |

 |
| The omake was the best part xD |
 |
u2blah said: If that was filler, I'm very hopeful for this new Bleach. Nope. They adapted manga very well. I love comedy stuff in it. Riruka seems to be more "likeable" than her manga version. This "reversed swastika" was somehow small. Overall, very funny episode! |
| I like the part with ichigo fighting the hollow that he can't see. And i panic when yuzu appear in the direction that the "book guy" walk to. Shinigami cup was hilarious :D |
| Was I the only laughing when Ichigo was fighting that hollow? It just looked strange tht we were seeing it through his eyes with like nothing there. And one of those bg songs sounds like something out of Capcom vs SNK. And I'm very appreciative of the IchiHime moments. And I don't trust those Fullbring guys(what kind of name is that anyway...) |
  Thanks to Iri for the awesome Signature!! ^^ |
Shinobu- said: will this anime ever get some new soundtrack!? They tend to add a few new tracks on to the old favourites. So for this arc they introduced few new ones alongside some very old ones. To be honest I think they've fit really well. |
 |
| Amazingly done episode. - Ichigo running after his badge in the lake but then stopping right before it - Chado's words to Ichigo - Ichigo being protected by ORIHIME of all people!? - Yuzu in danger while Ichigo is helpless and fighting a losing battle - Ginjo saving Yuzu - Ichigo's decision after realizing the pain of not being able to protect Yuzu/friends - Oh yeah, Riruka stalking FTW ^^ This is some good development, I'm really liking this arc a lot. Especially since it takes me back to the days where Bleach was all about Karakura Town. (Although, I love SS, a small breather is necessary). Oh yeah, LMAO at Ginjo in the Omake ^^ |

| I haven't watched Bleach in a while (like two months?) so this was pretty new to me. I like the jazzy OST they used in this episode. 4/5 mysticdreamer said: And I'm very appreciative of the IchiHime moments. Me too. |
| Good episode! I hate Rurika though, she's too much of an annoying tsundere. |

| That pigtailed redhead seems to catch my interests :p Pretty nice development in both story and character so lets see what's next! |
 |
| I'm digging this new jazz-y soundtrack! :D And yay, more Orihime! <3 I'm glad she's back to her season 1 self, not this "Kurosaki-kun!!!!!!!!!! SAVE ME!!" from Arrancar arc. ^^ But I really want her to have some action >.< Like I get that she hates fighting and stuff, but come on, let her handle just one little hollow. And why didn't Ishida want Orihime to heal him? And is it weird that I can tell where a chapter begins and ends in the anime even though I didn't even touch manga? xD So many questions. |
| Been a while since I last watched Bleach. Only now I noticed Karin is voiced by KugiRie. It's been so long since I heard any of Bleach OST, those were cool. Riruka is cute with her tsundere-ness XD I liked the OP, but not so much about the ED. |

| Honobono Log - best slice of life short -------------------------------------------- most kawaii loli overlord ---------------------------- Donquixote Doflamingo AMV - Control |
| On to the next 1. |
  |
| Pretty good for now,it's becoming interesting... |
| I can't believe Ichigo threw his pass in to the river. Awww, Chad and Ichigo's heart to heart was sweet. He got saved by Orihime and stalked by Riruka lol. Of course Ginjo saved Yuzu to get Ichigo to do what he wants ... Ginjo is hot too <3 Ichigo loves to protect people - it's so sweet and one of his best qualities <3 |
 |
| I hope that Ichigo will regain the power of Shingami and this is not a lie because I have longed for Hollow Ichigo and Shinigami Ichigo :( |
