| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- What an awesome episode! Ginjo trolled Ichigo's powers to himself and the other Excution members, and Ginjo was once a substitute Soul Reaper as well. Can't wait to see all the battles between Excution and the Soul Reapers! |

| I could had sworn in the manga Riruka didnt take any of Ichigo powers. I just know Kenpachi ending the episode like the boss he is. Anime makes Bleach story so much better than the manga. I wonder what new project the Bleach Director going to work on. His previous work directiong was YuYu Hakusho. |
| Loved first half, second was so-so |
| Haven't seen the episode yet, but apparently they used the final version of HARUKAZE? I preferred the BLEACH version though. A bit off topic, but will SCANDAL release both versions as a single? |
dimon1408 said: The last few episodes seem as a definite improvement on the past few months or years, even though this in itself feels like a filler arc. Shame that Bleach is supposedly ending after 4 more episodes... But it's not a filler arc. It's the second to the last arc of bleach. Kenpachi so baws. Better than the Manga. |
| Damn Kenpachi, asking to swap with Byakuya and then taken lightly by Giriko. |
| This episode was done well, but it felt a little bit dragged...which makes me wonder whether they can actually wrap the whole thing up nicely in the remaining 4 episodes. Oh yeah and 4/5 for this one. |
| Ichigo is so overpowered now and Kenpachi pretty much just pwned Giriko in the middle of his sentence. |

| Zaraki Kenpachi IN BLEACH WAS AWESOME THIS WEEK ! |
| Eh, I don't want it to end. I would love to watch more fillers...Something with a lot of character interaction and funniness... D: Also... TrOjAnHoRsE said: Zaraki Kenpachi IN BLEACH WAS AWESOME THIS WEEK ! He's always AWESOME ! |

| So do you think Giriko is actually dead after kenpachi sliced him in half? |

| Anyone else hear a funny sound at 2 minutes 49 seconds? When ichigo said it wasn't a getsuga tensho… Also weird how Zaraki waited for the guy to turn into a monster to kill him… since he is human… meh… omake was the best bit… but seems taken from sket dance… |
| I like the remixed opening. It's like they suddenly become self-aware that they're ending in a month also the Kenpachi scene lived up to my expectations |
| Kenpachi is Bleach' Chuck Norris :D |
     |
| Kenpachi was a badass, He ended it in 1 second, The old man was getting on my nerves as he was talking to much. GG lol |

| lol I luved the "Oii Kuichi switch with me that one looks stronger" |
| Zaraki took care of Giriko too fast. D: |
| Zaraki rules! hahaha Whatever, very nice episode. |
 |
| Awesome episode. Ichigo is insanely powerful but Kujo has a couple tricks of his own and we see now that it is a full on Fullbringer vs Soul Reaper fight! Kenpachi of course was just a beast and destroyed Giriko in a second. Literally just got sliced in half! |
Touch me, you filthy casual~ |
| Awesome episode. Ichigo kicking Ginjo's ass, the revelation of him being the first substitute shinigami and then giving everyone else Ichigo's power. They did some awesome crazy eyes for Orihime for the mental breakdown scene. "Why does it hurt to see Ichigo cry?!" Coz you looove him, you loove him ;P And everyone got a fight of their own with different settings. I really thought they would just sit back and watch Ichigo handle it. Goddamn Kenpachi, this is why you're my favorite character. You never disappoint. |
| PSP upgraded = Nintendo Power glove... ...the video game fanboy in me found that amusing. |
   |
| I see MAL actually has this being one of the last episodes of Bleach the anime O_o I checked, though, and there are more manga chapters after this arc (only a few as of yet but it's continuing). In all likelihood they got tired of coming up with filler stories and decided to put the show on haitus until the final arc can materialize enough to animate (probably by next winter season at the lastest). Unless manga and DVD sales absolutely plummet, but as popular as Bleach is I'm sure they'll bring it back for "Bleach: The Final Chapter." As for the episode itself, some awesome, badass fighting. Was kinda unimpressed with Giriko, especially since he did the idiotic thing of trying brute force v Kenpachi. If he'd been smart and set up some traps with his Fullbring he probably could've stood a chance, but 'hulking out'? Not gonna work. Look at how well that worked for Yammy. I wonder how Toshiro's gonna take down the Power Glove kid? He seems to be able to negate just about any attack. Ice-boy will probably have to freeze and shatter his Fullbring in order to make any offense stick. |
| Pretty awesome :) I was waiting for these battles to be animated. Rukia's will be hilarious :D And I want to see Byakuya's and Tsukishima's because I was honestly kinda confused in the battle in the manga xD Kenpachi's fight made me go *-* with awesomeness but I didn't get the feeling here. Might be because I already knew what was gonna happen :/ But yeah. I love seeing Ichigo all awesome like that. It makes me happy :3 4/5 Preview: "CAN'T YOU TELL I'M TALLER?!?!?!!" - LOVE. Omake: Ichigo and Chad's stupidity <3, Ishida always has to play the straight man! :3 So... one of the last episodes of Bleach. It kinda ends part of my life, ya' know what I mean? I'm just gonna enjoy the stupid Fullbring plot because it's my last bit of Bleach for a while! |

| Giriko looked like an Incredible Hulk ripoff. Until he was owned by Kenpachi that is. Looks like Bleach might end with a bang after all. |
| "Ogon’ po gotovnosti!" |
| woow i've missed this so much T^T Bleach feels like it used to again<3<3 c: I think all the matches are paired up nicely! Toshiro vs Yukio = cute little boys! ^0^ Ikkaku vs Shishigawara = bald and semi bald. Byakuya vs Tsukishima = slender guys(?) >.> w/ flowy hair. Rukia vs Riruka = cute girls. (although Riruka is more girly) Kenpachi vs Giriko aka "the hulk" = i got nothing ;_; (i guess burly men?? LOL) Renji vs Jackie = again.. nothing ;____; and I never would have guessed that Ginjo would be the first substitute shinigami since I kind of forgot about that in the first place but Ichigo vs Ginjo is self explanatory xD I've missed the captains fighting skills though and I cannot wait until next week! 4 more episodes left TT___TT |

Although, I kind of figured he was the substitute soul reaper a few weeks ago.. Anyways, other then the incredible hulk rip-off, it truly does feel like it use to. Depressing that there are only what..4 episodes left? Since I heard there was at least another arc in the manga, I hope there is something for that. We finally get a "time skip" where everybody gets older and better, then it ends?! I really hope it's a twisted joke.. |
| --Dread Knight Torac, Destroyer of Grammar Nazis-- |
| Did the OP sound slightly different to anyone else? |
| i liked the ep, sad that its ending so soon, is it bad that i don't want Riruka to get hurt |
 |
| Lol at Zaraki's fight. |
 |
| I really liked that Yamamoto finally realized/accepted/rewarded what Ichigo did for Soul Society. Before he was always like "sure, wh we would not be having this discussion if he wouldn't have been there, but he's still just human". And Ginjo retreating. Of course, the real fight starts now, but him actually retreating..and Ichigo abusing him as punching back. I kinda expected Ichigo to appear behind/in front of Ginjo when he reappeared and stab/slash him for good, as Ichigo had a somewhat annoyed face, like "can't he just die now? I want to know whats up with Orihime and Chad, not fight some chump". And it's not weird Kenpachi did wait for Giriko to turn into "Hulk". He never started a fight (with "named" guys, not random enemies on his way) if he clearly outmatched the enemy, and he repeadetely lowered his blade - and it does make sense. He lives for fighting, he has fun, the more powerful the enemy, the more fun. There is no fun if the enemy can not fight. And Giriko..well, Kenpachi was probably like "if i do not kill him now, he will follow me around like a stray dog. Better get rid of him so i can find someone else to fight. Like..hm..when was the last time i fought Ichigo?" |
| Wooohooo, if they have to end the arc in 4 episodes, maybe the fights will actually be fast paced for once! We can only hope! |
 |
| I actually wanted these fights to be fleshed out in the anime. Especially Renji v. Jackie. But alas there won't be any time for that with 16 chapters being crammed into 4 episodes. |
 |
| HULK SMASH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |
| Giriko going hulk was pretty random, I guess since his Fullbring wasn't so detailed it allowed him to do whatever he pleased. I find it ironic that he called Kenpachi a "muscle-head" and five seconds later he turned into a gigantic green body builder.I assume he was green because Fullbringers like the color green. |

scytheboy13 said: I find it ironic that he called Kenpachi a "muscle-head" and five seconds later he turned into a gigantic green body builder. I have to nitpick here: Giriko called Kenpachi a muscle-bounded idiot(or something like that) and said that the likes of him should be defeated by brute force and thats why he turned into a Hulk. |
