BLCH TYBW Ep 21

you knwo you aint shit when ichigo does a baby getsuga tensho, thats like naruto doing a pinky rasenshuriken

Charlie baker

1 it is absolutely explained later than this point in the manga so manga readers do know and its still leaning towards discussing spoilers so just don't do it. I don't get why its so hard for people to let the mystery and excitement build for people on its own

Joseph C Gdaniec

I hate the shoulder part, could’ve been more creative with her fit tbh

Yoori

fun fact, VA for the big mouth quincy chick is the same for madoka. she also did tanya from tanya the evil

em

Saying he’s the number 1 war potential/threat while playing the song Number 1, is crazy.

YungZeus

@Diego probably competes with Bambietta as the most dumbest tho

YungZeus

liltotto found a parasyte

Daniel Turner

You guys said you were going to jump into episode 21 and exactly 2:01 for me. Whoa.

Bona Fide

Also I'm just pointing out stuff they had to of forgot since it's from Soul Society! Plus .... Roshi likes things to be cleared up as long as it's not spoiler so yeah

ShaquanVirse

Manga readers don't know either - that's what kubo does with showing and not telling

ShaquanVirse

Just let the anime do the explaining man 😭 it's obviously going to be revealed later down the line. I get it, you're excited and wanna point out every little detail, but here's the thing - you have context that anime onlys dont. So how about you just enjoy the reaction?

Daniel Robb

ShaquanVirse

It was the same thing with naruto 😂😂

Big Daddy Dre

let them think that until we reach cour 4.

Kevin Kovacs

For me this was one of my favorite ep of this arc.. like TOP 5.

Kevin Kovacs

not really.. but you gonna see it's not the "main focus" of Ichigo unlike Naruto.

Kevin Kovacs

saying uryu hasn’t been raw since season one is crazy😂

mal

I'm quitting if my Zanpakutō's name is "Bob" 😂

Quinton Campbell

Nope, he doesn't need to convince anyone for his power to work. Also no one is out speeding his imagination; there's a reason why he's the strongest Sternritter

CatchThisNut

Can’t wait to hear most people thoughts after this next episode.

Silencer

to be fair, Orihime is wearing that basic female battle outfit

Ricardo Arellano

L taste

Yoxxhio

Nah orihimes fit is dogshit ngl 0 drip

Ougi

@JsnSkg this pressed over someone not liking Candice lol? The horny side of anime fans really need to go outside and interact more

Ghearman

GODAAAYUM ORIHIME SHIRT BOUT TO BREAK LOL

RuTo-San

Ichigo made a hole in the O-Zone. Quincy King used that to pass through Barrier, before it could regenerate. Mister imma jump instead of going down the stairs Kurosaki.

MDLNubes

I think grammys power is a little too demanding. A lot of the stronger people could easily out speed his imagination. This would make him too focused on healing with no time to imagine anything else. Plus i feel like the opponent has to believe his words in order to effect there sprit and body. You'll notice that he had to convince Ikkaku that she was mad of cookies and the captions were already on deaths door so convincing them to die was easy. I believe the opponent has to believe these this things are real in order to work, thats the way I see it. A battle of imagination with BOTH sids effecting what is real.

soul

next episode going be recap then after that going be two episode into one

mitch mcmahan

Yeah man the author would've been so smart for ... changing the name of one of the most iconic attacks instead of just making it way more powerful

ok

She forgot that’s he is his successor right 😂 so he will be doing that to them if I’m not mistaken

Rocksolo

With far greater impact, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.

Silencer

You can't tell me she isn't if it's an opinion. But average? Bitch please lmao. Ngl, I honestly believe that your opinion is hot flaming garbage :P You must have shit taste lol.

関口信玄

The fact that after all this time, Ichigo's new move is just two of his old move at the same time LMAO

Polygon

Number 1 Abuse Victim

Jay Voorhees

That cgi wrench meme “it’s him”

YungZeus

The only thing that was lacking or rather a bit iffy in this one compared to the others was the animation. Other than that, everything else peaked and popped off. Goes to show that Bleach doesn’t need the best animation to carry it.

Silencer

He didn’t even really have time to look around since he immediately got jumped. And again he blames Yhwach.

Conflictor

This episode isn't as good as the others imo but I did like seeing the Bambies in action. The anime gave them some extra screen time and I gotta say my favorite is Sternritter P "The Power" because I love a girl that's abnormally strong. Plus I love her Holy Form with the Hearts going on looking like she's suppose to be the physical Power of Love. Although we Manga readers know who the Love really is.

Isaac

Don't forget E the Explosion. Rip her though. They left her ass.

Isaac

boys next episode is delayed sadly :( so week after next itll release apparently

respect

Lmao I remember when they kept clowning Author from Fire force because his power was based on imagination. Now they see how imagination can be dangerous when you master it.

Art of Trolling

Ichigo gives new meaning to caring for his enemies.

Senjioh

We get closer and closer to my favorite moment I think

Kisuke01

i like how ichigo through this entire series has only had 1 attack and he just spams it. And his new attack is just two of the same thing hes been firing off for years overlapped lmao.

Infinity

No she ain’t bro. She’s an average anime woman

Jeremiah Wagner

I honestly love the Bambies. They really made this episode fun. Their Vollständig transformations gave me Sailor Moon vibes. They said “Moon Prism Power, Make Up!” I’m also really glad they kept the scene of the rest of the Bambies landing on Candice in various ways. It was hilarious in the manga and it was hilarious in the anime. Ichigo came back and showed those girls why we call him Ichigoat! I also loved how he told Candice to dodge his attack. He’s HIM but he’s also a gentleman. 🥹

Earphone Jack

@22TheDon but the problem I have with that is it's not just Ichigo on the battlefield, there are still a lot of fodder Soul Reapers that those 4 can kill easily and he was going to spare them. If it was just him on the battlefield then that type of thinking would be somewhat okay but he has to consider the threat that those he will spare can have on the others.

Devin B

Look at the city if this nigga don’t think or know they killing soul reapers he the dumbest nigga I done ever met 😭

Kingmakaii

He hasn’t seen what they’ve done so he’s not aware of it, and clearly puts all the blame on Yhwach. Regardless of anything, Ichigo is not a mindless or ruthless killer, even in war.

Conflictor

I see your point, but in Ichigo’s eyes he prob sees as not being a problem considering he can easily beat them.

22TheDon

I just realized how much I accidentally spoiled there. Sorry about that. But yeah, there's a reason for her disapearance

Jaelyn Mcgee

These niggas are running around literally killing yo comrades you better be trying to kill them nigga 🤣

Kingmakaii

Like you said, it has to do with something that we haven’t seen that you put in parentheses. You might wanna edit that out.

Silencer

But I’m still thankful for it because Candy is fiiiiiine af lol

関口信玄

There’s 5 episodes left but next week they take a well deserved break due to a recap and come back on the 9th, Eps 25 & 26 will be together and the last of this cour next month on the 30th, just like Eps 12 & 13 were for part 1. Side Note: While everyone seems to be focused on Orihime’s new outfit with the boob window more than anything else, I’m more focused on the OST that played at the end, the remix return of “Treachery” https://youtu.be/V1NO7qtcNfY?si=8rSODpuyDWkN-GQq We are not the same. Don’t worry tho, it’ll be addressed next episode. There’s some lore behind her chest that makes her officially known as “Oppaihime” (Breasts Princess) All that 🍞 she eats gotta go somewhere especially with her bubbly self.

Silencer

If y’all ain’t know the bambiettas are P the Power G the Glutton Z the Zombie T the Thunderbolt

Kk

i gotta pick this show back up man

Lupa is Dadi

@Xeparator -- I'm glad she could help Ulquiorra see the light on his deathbed, but her type of naive thinking is very dangerous. Whether it's fiction or real life, not everyone has the capacity or willingness to change for the better. Just look at Loly and Menoly. They feel like the equivalent of a slightly more dangerous Team Rocket, but when given power over Orihime, they were positively giddy at the idea of torturing her. At least Ulquiorra had the morally grey "just following orders" excuse. Loly and Menoly stood up for Orihime when it mattered most, and that kinda felt like character development at the time, but as we now see, they're still Aizen loyalists who would free him if the opportunity should arise.

Merfhew

Yehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Hasnain Khan

I think next week is a recap and also i think it may be 26 episodes, however i think they releasing the last two together or its a 1 hour episode, dont quote me on that though.

Kilonzo

@Devin B Yeah that’s true but in that situation he would obviously know they’re just as bad. TBF he hasn’t really seen what these Quincy girls or the others SternRitters have done. Regardless Ichigo’s not a mindless or ruthless killer, even in war.

Conflictor

Telling your opponent to dodge your attack because you know it’ll kill them is crazy disrespectful💀 Welcome back Ichigoat

AsuraTM

The naruto and sasuke parallels right now going crazy.

Davon Thomas

By the way next episode will be on September 9 there will be a recap episode on the 2 to show what has happened over the last season and this season

Lord Joku 69

@Xeparator but realistically that kind of forgiveness can be dangerous depending on the individual. Imagine sparing someone that is actively killing innocent people, they're the ones invading Soul Society and trying to kill everyone. Even without Ywhach I guarentee the other Quincies would go on a killing spree just because.

Devin B

I don’t think it’s a stupid mindset cause he doesn’t know any of these Quincy girls and sees them as relatively innocent as them just doing their job. He obviously puts all the blame on Yhwach.

Conflictor

Ichigo: SASUKKEEEEEE YOU LEAVIN THE VILLAGE AGAIN

Danny

@Merfhew No need to throw one under the bus to bring another up. That’s only due to the overwhelming love and kindness in her heart with her bubbly nature, she can’t help it. That same personality and character changed the likes of Ulquiorra upon his death.

Conflictor

@Jdogzero --- True, but that usually works out for Ichigo at some point (which reminds me of DragonBall). If we're gonna talk about "stupid mindsets" as you put it, the lady with a boob window outfit spared those who imprisoned and abused her. She's basically a walking, talking Stockholm syndrome.

Merfhew

The One & Only Dual Bladed True Shikai: Zangetsu (Slaying Moon) In It’s Original Shikai form, Zangetsu is an oversized (5’7″, nearly the same height as Ichigo who was 5’8 pre-time skip, now 5’11) plain black blade with a broad silver cutting edge, without a guard plate or proper hilt. It just has a white ribbon wrapped around the handle. The tape serves several purposes: When Ichigo is not using Zangetsu, the band wraps around the blade, and can be used to tie Zangetsu to his back. This is especially helpful since Zangetsu is no longer sheathed in the Shikai, but is permanently liberated. In combat, it unwraps again automatically. After Ichigo lost and regained his soul reaper powers, his sword has also undergone a change: the top and bottom ends now have arcuate tips, the grip surface more closely resembles that of the Bankai, and the band has been removed. Instead, like in Bankai, a chain now hangs down from the sword. Zangetsu’s abilities have not changed. However, it become substantially stronger due to the additional Fullbringer power. Now that Ichigo has found, forgive, and accepted himself after uncovering his roots, Zangetsu turned out to be a dual blade as the result of Ichigo’s dual nature: A large sword representing the Hollow White as Zangetsu’s true form, and a smaller blade representing the Old Man Zangetsu as the source of Ichigo’s Quincy powers. They’re both combined and mixed into his soul reaper powers. In this state he is known as True Shikai Ichigo. As for one of his new signature moves, Getsuga Jujisho (Moon-Fang Cross-Impact) it’s basically just a double cross slash Getsuga Tensho, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

Conflictor

I would say depending on the enemy that mindsight can be seen as stupid because Ichigo knows that certain threats like Aizen and Ginjo had to be taken down for good (he tried his best to get rid of Aizen) but yeah in this instance where every Quincy is killing Soul Reapers it would be stupid not to kill them.

Devin B

There's 5 episodes remainin, not 3.

dzuudo

nah it was more his hero complex. he has always tried to spare his enemies if he can. its a stupid mindset.

Jdogzero Silverblade

Dude let's his fingers do the work. A real gentleman.

Merfhew

Bazz-B came into Finger his way to Glory.

Lightbane1905

For those who don't know, Bleach gets a recap episode next week.

Merfhew

Aizen sitting there in Muken chilling "All according to plan."

godUsoland

Believe it or not, that stole the focus and attention away from everything else this episode for most people. Like this is crazy https://x.com/ichigod22/status/1695481399984205938?s=61&t=1VigzxkX26iJZItobY59WA

Conflictor

So I’m assuming bleach’s “sasuke retrieval arc” is coming in the next cour😂

Big Daddy Dre

While I completely understand the hype for BDSM Aizen, I think we should recognize Chair-sama. I didn't notice it the first time, but I see the silhouette now.

Merfhew

that shit had me cryin when he told her to “move idiot” wjehwhsbehwhsb

kai

Ah yes, the famous "boob window" scene.

Merfhew

Telling yo enemy yo dodge yo attack got to be one of the wildest things a nigga can do cuz huh tf you mean dodge nigga 😭

Kingmakaii

I was NUT ready for that orihime zoom in

Kars

Do you know how much of a flex it is to tell your opponent to dodge your attack? Ichigo came in with that raw MC energy on top of his dope fit.

Devin B

Fighting a main character fresh off his training arc is wild

drfreshest

Sheera always looks sad in the beginning

Darion Wilson

That’s what happens when you find, forgive, and accept yourself. His Soul has been Bleached. A young man that has found clarity in a world beyond his own, caught in the middle of two clashing society factions, must now clean house and take care of some bitches: The Bambies & their Schrifts (Script/Holy Letter/Signature Ability) Liltotto Lamperd, designated "G" - "The Glutton Meninas McAllon, designated "P" - "The Power" Candice Catnipp, designated "T" - "The Thunderbolt" Giselle Gewelle, designated "Z" - "The Zombie" Before they went and activated their Vollständigs (Complete Holy Forms) they powered themselves with a subjugation ability Quilge Opie used against Ichigo: Sklaverei = Holy Salve, achieved by perfecting the basic Quincy ability of gathering spirit particles to the highest degree. It allows the user to complete control over foreign spirit particles. Them fighting Ichigo in those forms was completely anime original as an extension of their fight despite this episode covering about 7 chapters by trimming down and fine-tuning the dialogue, as well as the fast paced action. Last Ep marked when it covered 100 chapters of the arc in the manga, and as of this Ep with the shot of Ichigo in his new outfit unscathed by Candice’s attack marks the half way point of the entire arc in the manga. So 20 1/2 + 20 1/2 equals 41, leaving us with exactly 11 Eps worth of anime original/additional extended content. Aside from last November with Eps 5, 6 and 7, this might’ve just been the best action packed month in Bleach’s history with these last 4 Eps of Renji, Rukia, Kenpachi and Ichigoat. They weren’t joking when they said we would get better animation this part. They knew they had to show off for its birth month. Bleach forever owns August. This is how you make the the most ideal and best adaptation.

Conflictor

yes yes yes yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesssssssssss
