Bleach TYBW Ep 1

i agree i always watch the op and ed doesnt take away from anything

Kage Uzumaki

Full of spoilers my ass. They don't give away the plot and they are pretty subtle unless you've already seen the entire show

Captain K'nuckles

Bro, the OP is 60% spoilers. lmao

Potatex

Dude, the first intro for TYBW is full of spoiler’s

Ultimate Waifu

Damn I’ve been waiting for this for so long. Why the change? I really hope you guys go back to 2 episodes a week.

Ray

Honestly, I’m more bummed that you guys are skipping the intro than I am about the delay for episode 1 or the switch to one episode a week.

Captain K'nuckles

Can y'all do 2 episodes a week again?

Datdudetank

please make this 2 eps per week, as it was

Fazil Ramdass

You already know Bleach ost's are goated anyways so TYBW ost's are gonna slap. Shiro Sagisu never disappoints. Felt good hearing the remixed version of Number One, it even played in the trailer too. Animation is god tier. TYBW hype. 🔥 This episode was unbelievable. A whole movie.

Kayso

I doubt they'd bother remaking it especially not to this level. TYBW only looks this good because it's only 1 arc, Kubo is involved(he doesn't have time to spend 10 years supervising a full on remake), and they have to overcompensate for how mediocre the source material was.

Denickart

My bad Grimm; I'd hit the reply to the other dude's comment but I could have specified so that you'd have known immediately that I wasn't saying you were spoiling. Sorry for the mix up!

Smash Bran'Discootch

Shino's and Ikkaku's relationship is not exactly confirmed. As always, refer to CFYOW.

StuntonemSteve

Don’t forget the part where they say “regain his pulse”, after 900 year’s

Ultimate Waifu

I was about to post on here "KUNA! 2-Chains is Kuna!", 'Cause I just re-watched the latest episode where they call her by name. Then I realized that's her LAST NAME. 😛 So I looked it up: Niko! Mashiro and Niko Kuna.

Nabeshin

#SundayRundown Bleach TYBW.... Yhwach was also written originally by Kubo in manga as Juha Bach and is pronounced the same as Juhaaa Bahaaa. The name will start getting significance in later episodes and you are just supposed to know the name by now. Also yes u might have already noticed how there is less censorship now as compared to OG plus it is like a season thing now similar to small Netflix seasons of 13 episodes so yes the pace is a lot better and a lot more focused, story driven. They fleshed out manga in this arc really well. I am just amazed. Did u notice that the hollows in first episode were CG? Soooo good CG. Best of luck. Loves, Hugs and Kisses and Free Palestine

Muhammad Affan

Can u guys stop being kids and not compare the three? All anime have their respective space and they are just entertainment pieces. Stop this crap. Focus on ur lives.

Muhammad Affan

I hope someone does this for the Normies every episode it’s rare to see these info cards get translated and commented for the reactors

Ichigoat

"Naruto" and "One Piece" anime are just as censored, the small things that were padded out or cut from the manga did not change the characters, and Ichigo/Rukia did not "seem like endgame". Just like Naruto/Sakura, fans shipped them and wished they were endgame, while knowing they weren't canon. They did this from the beginning of the manga, and thus were given some fan service in the anime, but Orihime is the same character, and her relationship with Ichigo is the same.

Nabeshin

Funniest shit I've seen all damn day!!!! Bleach better than Naruto & One Piece? We talking anime Sir!! Bleach Manga better than Naruto manga!! Bleach anime was fucked with all that damn censorship, all the damn character changes, all the essential changes that made Rukia & Ichigo seem like endgame!!! One Piece Manga better than both Bleach & Naruto mangas!!! Bleach TYBW Anime itself (Not including what came before it) Better than One Piece & Naruto animes

ShaquanVirse

Compared to the manga if the anime was standalone id argue it's still far better than Naruto and One piece. Reason why is because with Naruto space Ninjas killed the authors story even though he didn't want it to happen. One piece anime though they have 1000 episodes only maybe 200 episodes are good lol.

George Micheal

To be fair the anime is bad compared to the manga. Kubo is heavily involved with this new anime for a reason.

George Micheal

Socal

Yo bro chill. I'm curious, who do you consider a really good bleach reactor?

Socal

The lack of romantic priority in the manga and subsequent shipping of the two most significant characters is a separate discussion from the lie about millions of "BLEACH" fans who ship Ichigo and Rukia only doing so because the anime director tricked them. Not only is this false, but it's a silly thing to try and gaslight people with if romance is something you don't care about anyway.

Nabeshin

With German word's they pronounce their W's as V's, so you should say "Vandenreich"!

Ultimate Waifu

It’s currently a work in progress translating it myself. When it’s all done soon enough, I will be sharing it all around on a Google doc.

Conflictor

HAHAHAHA bro you are defending them in every comment, holy glaze

KindaWeirdChampBro

I won't even humor that comment with a response lol

KindaWeirdChampBro

Oh bruuuuh Yugioh is a great example of censorship. In the Manga, Yugi just straight up murders people 😂

Smash Bran'Discootch

Regarding censorship and such, to add on to your point, the og Yugioh is the best example i can think of when it comes to censoring a bunch of religious and philosophical symbols and such (just because i fuck with Yugioh heavy lol, ever since i was a kid). Yugioh cards had a lot of that, so they changed them when they came to the West, both in the anime and the card game proper. Spellbinding Circle is a good example of this lol. Monster Reborn is another one. And so on.

Shockzz1234

*cries in Undead Unluck*

Shockzz1234

paying 10 dollars a month and asking to get 2 episodes a week isn't really being entitled

Bryan

Then leave and shut up about it. They don't owe you anything. Honestly paying $10 a month to only watch ONE show they react to is stupid anyway. Okay fine, you're here for bleach. And? You're speaking about it like they owe you more than the service they provide. That's what makes you sound entitled.

Smash Bran'Discootch

Suuuuuuuuuuper entitled, aren't ya?

Smash Bran'Discootch

Exactly, save that 1 per week for YouTube. Us patreons should be getting 2 episodes lol

Queef Burglar

Similar to how the Ichiruki fans are annoying to most Bleach fans because it simply does not exist? What you guys see as a tease is us just seeing two best friends and the people who kept themselves latched onto this "relationship" after Orihime's goodbye are just blind. Also this is an action manga. The fact that people even care about romance so much is funny to us cause this is one of the top reasons people hate on Bleach.

Mugen Shiratori

Agreed, as much as the OG had amazing moments as an adaptation of the manga it is very unfaithful and leaves so many things out. TYBW enhances the source material

Ichigoat

You do know that Kubo himself is very dipleased by the original anime direction right?

Mugen Shiratori

Well... a remake was teased so... there is hope.

Mugen Shiratori

No thank you my goodness it's crazy how stupid people can be no offense

Aus

And so the Bloodclat War Fya started!!!

Heavenly Demonic Emperor

Suraj gonna get mad spoiled if he looks up the VA for everyone he sees this season

Maximum Homerdrive

This is a 1st world problem. Try to let go and enjoy with us!

Bleach Expert

I’m definitely with you on the blue Getsuga looking better. Of course it’s just personal preference. I’m glad we get to enjoy seeing both.

Bleach Expert

It doesn’t matter. Let’s have fun

Bleach Expert

#SundayRundown One tidbit i always liked when watching the TYBW is the soundtrack. you'll quickly notice most of it is littered with remixes of the OG bleach tracks, and Ichigo's theme in the first few minutes of the episode is a remixed version called "Number one - Bankai" (also on youtube and spotify) they also played it for the teaser trailer before TYBW premiered.

SilentCilantro

Blood war is here!!! Bring on the carnage 🤩🔥🔥🔥

Narutoanime16

Sometimes i really wish, all Bleach was like TYBW..... Old Bleach pales in comparison

Muhammad Affan

#SundayRunDown bleach Reconsider getting back to a 2 episodes a week its what the community wants and whats normally has been since the start

Sojiro

The dub pronounces it the same way

victoria t

#SundayRundown #Bleach I am curiohs how the dub will pronouce Yhwach, the manga translation was a nightmare with fans translation spelling it Yuhabach as it is pronouced that way but spelt Yhwach. The japanese pronouce his name Yu-Ha-Ba-Ha Bleach is available on Disney Plus and Disney had bought the streaming rights for the franchise. Likely due to the investment, the anime just had a way larger budget (not sure if this is true) but it would make sense as the show is formated more like a movie in terms of sound, censorship and composition of the scenes, than a TV anime production. Example, when Sasakibi was shot into the wall, you will notice his left hand was missing, typically they would censor and tone down dismemberment as well as the amount of blood shown on screen. Also, Ebern's dub voice was very off putting but he was indeed an Arrancar and in Tite Kubo's Klub Outside Q&A website, he does confirm a fan theory and that the quincy cross he had on him had giving him quincy powers. If and when you do watch Burn the Witch, i would like to see what you guys think about the wider world of Bleach, i am often wondering if the Quincy originated from Europe and migrated to Japan, i think the world expansion in Burn the Witch does open the doors for a very expansive world and does change your world view on Bleach. It just seems odd that the Quincy's being german and European would end up in Japan

Kuro

Subtitles give it away anyways. Also the name itself isn't a reveal.

TexasSnyper

Wait, no more Liam O'Brian for Ukitake?!?! Sadge

TexasSnyper

#SUNDAYRUNDOWN Bleach Damn if there’s one thing bleach does right it’s the spectacle, you have no idea how it felt after all these years to come back and see they really gave a damn about the animation. It’s just the requisite intro to the arc showing what our main cast can do as a reminder but they put their whole pussy into the animation, it’s a visual feast right off the bat and it’s only up from here! It’s barely been any time in the show but it really felt like it’s been years, like they’ve spent that time getting better. It was just against scrub hollow but it still feels good seeing them pop off. Also I knew it was coming but orihimes milk missiles still caught me off guard, they’re each twice as big as her head!

TrixieTurner

Does this mean you won't be doing double drops for Bleach anymore?

AniMangaFan

And Shishigawara VA is Todd Haberkorn and he voices Natsu, knew his voice sounded familiar. Also didn't know Mashiro's sister was in R&D. And Isane and Kiyone yeah that makes sense you can tell they're kinda close I always notice them talking here and there, never really put two and two together lol

Kayso

lol your last sentence. I know exactly who you’re referring too. They even had time to discuss it! Smh lol.

Shockzz1234

Yes Soul Society are the real Nazis and now you fell into their trap of being influenced by the history that has been rewritten.

Castiel_01x

That Squad 13 3rd Seat, whose name I can never remember, mentions her sister at one point during the Soul Society arc, but its very brief. They interact more in the filler, so fans watching week-to-week were aware at least. 😛 I forgot chain-hair-girl (in this arc we can call her 2-chains) was related to Mashiro! This whole unacknowledged family thing IS pretty funny. Kubo even does it with...well...😏

Nabeshin

You’re right actually, he TRIES to tell Yama. I’ll edit.

Shockzz1234

Michael Lindsay (dub Urahara) and Masaaki Tsukada (sub Yamamoto) both died. 😢

Nabeshin

How so ?

KingCapone

Let them find how to spell Yhwach on their own though why the hand holding anyway?

Castiel_01x

Because they literally ask in the reaction how to pronounce it

Unstablebeast

It's actually mimicking Yiddish. NCHammer has a fun short about this: https://www.youtube.com/shorts/XHqCata0g2A

Nabeshin

Why would you even say this now? Stop hand holding

Castiel_01x

Sasakibe didn't tell Yama anything of that sorts though. If he had the Soul Reapers would have been ready to face the Quincies.

Castiel_01x

I never watched the dub, so I didn't even know Vic Mignogna voiced Ikkaku. *sigh * That whole situation's just sucky.

Nabeshin

I've been HOPING they would translate these, but alas. 😫 Where'd you find the translation?

Nabeshin

This was not "all confirmed by Kubo himself". English anime forum users take stories of the troubles Kubo had with Shueisha, as well as translations of certain interviews in which he decried interactions with toxic fans, and formulate a narrative around that stating Kubo hated the anime and that Noriyuki Abe made people ship Ichigo and Rukia. Nether of these are true. The lie about the anime creating Ichiruki is especially annoying to hear for those of us who've been on that ship from the beginning; as millions of readers were when the manga was first published. The fact is, romance was never prioritized in this story (as with most shonen), Rukia was always an extremely popular character (top 3 in every character poll), and Orihime was always on the sidelines. This easily lead to fans shipping Ichigo and Rukia long before the anime was made. Some of those shippers got on the anime team, and the most significant thing they did was add in that ice-skating moment between Ichigo and Rukia, but that wasn't to make people ship the two of them. Rather, like the Hisagi x Matsumoto filler episode that Kubo wrote himself, it was fan-service for those who already shipped those characters. Other than that, there were little character things in the anime that were cut from the manga, and others that were anime only...for both Rukia AND Orihime. Go back and read the manga, and you'll find moments that fans latched onto as Ichiruki bait that aren't in the anime, as well as moments one could call Ichihime that are anime-only; and visa-versa. As for the Getsuga, I'm well aware that it was always supposed to be yellow. I'm saying I prefer the blue despite that, because I think it fits better with the overall aesthetic, as well as being appropriate for...what we find out in this first cour.

Nabeshin

Oh man, that's deeper knowledge than I have, but it sounds right. So much japanese media from the 80's, 90's and 00's are a blend of super niche sects of western religions, mythology, and German philosophy and psychology. I'd say the best example of this is Tetsuya Takahashi's Xeno series and the Perfect Works narrative. A great example in anime is, of course, Neon Genesis Evangelion. And SOOOOOOO much of it had to be censored in the US. "Oh, that translates to The Church? Uhhhh, yeah let's just call it something else..." Localization people having to navigate censorship so as to not get an M rating on their media deserve a special kind of praise.

Smash Bran'Discootch

"Hold up, his writing is THIS fire??" meme for this comment, bravo man.

Shockzz1234

It's strange because it feels like TYBW was specifically made to be watched in pairs, at least in large part. So to drop the double drops here is like....i get it, but also lol.

Shockzz1234

Iirc Kubo literally wanted Yhwach's name to be Yahweh or something closer to it. And then his editor stepped in and was like "uhhh, maybe don't do that" and Kubo was like "fine....i will change it slightly so that it still looks like Yahweh, but is not Yahweh" lol.

Shockzz1234

#Sunday Rundown We're finally here - TYBW!!! Fun fact, Shino is Ikkaku's little sister lol, this isn't plot relevant or anything, and is never really mentioned at all. Actually, Kubo really likes creating siblings who don't ever interact with each other, for example, Mashiro (the green haired Vizard) has a sister in Mayuri's R&D Squad (she's the girl with chains on her hair, she's mostly a background character, so if you notice her, well done lol), also the Vice Captain of Squad 4 Isane and one of the the 13th Squad's Co 3rd Seats (the two who are always attending to Ukitake), Kiyone, are also sisters lol. And none of this is ever really mentioned, you just put it together through their last names. Re - Ikkaku's voice, he was voiced by Vic Mignonga, who got shelved due to to some controversy (some sexual harassment stuff iirc, yikes) so he's replaced by Shishigawara's voice actor. Vic also voiced Ed from FMA and Broly from DB (funny enough, Johnny Yong Bosch has now taken over the role of Broly lol). Lastly - Sasakibe (Yama's Vice Captain) tries to tell Yama that they can steal Bankai, which means he must have seen it in action. Did he have a Bankai despite being a Vice Captain? Or did he see it used on someone else who has a Bankai? Food for thought. Can't wait for later episodes.

Shockzz1234

Bro just hates the anime lol

Heat Pack

You’re weird buddy

Heat Pack

#SundayRundown bleach so it's been awhile since the end of bleach and some of the voice cast is different but they did try to get everyone that was in the old bleach series back they got at least 90% of the cast back Alain Mesa is the new VA for Chad his old VAs step down from the role to get a more race appropriate actor in the role Alex Le voices Ryunosuke Yuki but we also takes over the role of Jushiro Ukitake & Shinji Hirako Todd Haberkorn who voiced Shishigawara is the new voice for Ikkaku Madarame Sajin Komamura got a new voice actor but he also had other actors play him he is now being played by actor Christopher Swindle Patrick Seitz who also voices Isshin replace Kenpachi Zaraki voice actor back in the OG run of Bleach and returns here to voice him again why am i putting this here because there are a lot of ppl that loves David Lodge voice for Kenny but it was too late to get him back for the role/ he wasn't ask to return there are couple of smaller roles that were replace but they show up later or just have one line and they even got some back for just one line tho a lot of the old cast did do multiply roles

Roosevelt

Don't worry about the name. It is actually wrong to even know the name until episode 6 cause that gives it more intrigue.

Mugen Shiratori

#Sundayrundown The pronunciation of ywach is you-ha-bah Its a japanese mans (Kubo) way of mimicking german saying the old name for god yahweh

Unstablebeast

Yes! And it was "What you've been waiting for!"

Mugen Shiratori

Tbf, Getsuga was never supposed to be blue. A major reason why Kubo decided to involve himself in anime-making is that he did not like the original anime. The director of the original anime added extra scenes and changed the tone of some scenes changing the way characters would actually behave and feel in the source material versus the manga. He also really added and highlighted a lot of Ichigo and Rukia interactions while painting Orihime in a more annoying and negative light. Like the amount of Kurosaki-kuns is ridiculous. Then there is the scene where she gets scared of Ichigo's hollowfication. That is supposed to be a manifestation of her trauma from what happened to her brother. Instead, it is painted as a sort of ungrateful rejection of Ichigo who came to save her! All this and more caused damage to what the cannon relationship is supposed to be. By the way this was all confirmed by Kubo himself.

Mugen Shiratori

#SundayRundown Finally we have accurate colors for the anime that Kubo intended. Ichigos getsuga was phenomenal, the crew looks amazing and Orihime has her accurate hair and eye color. So much has been improved and this season is just getting started- a drunken bastard

ispeckz--

Bleach #SundayRundown Few tidbits: When Quincy kill Hollow, the souls are not passed on like when Soul Reapers "kill" Hollow. Hollow killed by Quincy are just completely destroyed, throwing off the balance of souls in each world. Mayuri took notice of an extremely high amount of Hollow being wiped out in a short span of time, which is alarming for the world's balance. Yamamoto's Lieutenant Sasakibe, actually has his manga-accurate eyes which contain no pupils. The color of Ichigo's getsuga is also manga-accurate as yellow whereas in the OG it was blue. Shino Madarame is the younger sister of Ikkaku Madarame. Uryuu "skating" on reishi isn't new. The technique is called "Hirenkyaku" which is a high speed movement Quincy use. We just never see the actual reishi in the OG anime because it would take more time to animate. Due to some controversy of Ikkaku's original VA, Ikkaku now has a new VA, Todd Haberkorn, known for voicing Natsu in Fairytail. Other characters have been recasted as well. The drawings of the characters in this arc is the closest to being manga accurate as if Tite Kubo drew them himself. Attention to details is super impressive. The way you say Yhwch is Yuha - Baja

Bleach Expert

Idk how you got that but correct I don’t care what they want in general

KingCapone

Someone's probably said it by now, but I'm not looking for it. What we know about this war at this point is that the Soul Reapers purify Hollows and return them to the cycle of reincarnation. The Quincies completely obliterate them upseting the balance of the worlds. You can probably think of it like metaphysical climate change. Can't really put an exact timeline on it but it will eventually destroy the world. Because of this the Soul Reapers petitioned the Quincies to stop, and when they refused the Soul Reapers unilaterally wiped them out becoming the basis for the title TYBW.

Benjamin Donahue

Bleach TYBW Keyword Page Episode 1: THE BLOOD WARFARE Shinigami (Grim/Soul Reaper) "They wear black kimonos known as shihakushō and carry swords known as zanpakutō. They belong to an organisation known as the Gotei 13, which exists in the afterlife known as Soul Society. They guide lost souls known as Plus(es) to the Soul Society and purify creatures, known as Hollow(s), that devour the souls of both living and dead humans. They assume the role of balancers, ensuring that the number of souls are balanced between Soul Society and the world of the living. Their combat abilities can be divided into 4 basic categories known as Zankensōki - Zan: Swordsmanship Ken-Hakuda: Hand to hand combat So-hohō: Movement Ki-kidō: Magic. However, the mastery of each depends on the personality and abilities of the individual. Unless remarkably sensitive to the paranormal, most humans will not be able to see them." This is what was said at the half way point.

Conflictor

It sounds like you don't have respect for what they want dude

Kai-lo

#SundayRundown I might be alone on this, but, in base form, I actually prefer the blue Getsuga of the first series to the yellow one of TYBW. Weird, 'cause yellow is my favorite color, but I just feel the blue fits better overall. In bankai form though, it's DEFINITELY the b/w cosmic fire of TYBW over the black'n'red swirlies of the first series. --- I am, and forever will remain, Ichiruki. That said, TYBW is when I FINALLY looked at Ichihime and went "A'ight. I respect it. I see the vision." And it all started with this episode/chapter. Orihime fighting right alongside Ichigo, then teasing him about the bread, then opening his window for him as he kicks a bad guy out of it, was, to me, better and more meaningful interaction between the two of them than in 90% of the episodes previous. 😆

Nabeshin

Navi regarding what you mentioned in the intro about it only being on Hulu is that it’s cause Disney acquired the licensing rights to Bleach from Crunchyroll and they just decided to put it where it used to be back in the day which is Hulu, it’s probably the main reason why it’s not as popular as it can be, despite the fact that it’s still very popular and mainstream simply because it’s a legacy IP as one of the Big3. Almost any other series would’ve fell into obscurity.

Conflictor

Not to mention, it went up against chainsaw man, and it still was anime of the season.

Conflictor

yeah if they stick to one episode, im not going to renew until they are all caught up and then come back, for now i may catch up with blindwave reacts

Duvorious R. Ingram

Yall should double drop the last 2 episodes of every cour since that is how it aired

BLEACH #SUNDAY RUNDOWN When BLEACH TYBW came out it trended worldwide at #1 fitting for Ichigo and his number 1 ost. Immediately it jumped to the top of the top anime list with it’s phenomenal first season (cour) BLEACH got the best adaptation award in 2022 This adaptation is INSANE, every Cour is PEAK. Unlike OG Bleach, TYBW actually enhances the source material, thanks to Kubo being heavily involved. No filler, just straight to the point I’m sure you’ve noticed the pacing is very fast by now Also if you guys didn’t know, BLEACH has inspired many anime such as Demon Slayer, JJK, Black Clover, MHA etc. There are also Bleach references within JJK, Gintama, MHA and other manga. BLEACH has even collaborated with Marvel, Coca Cola, Puma and even has its own Visa cards. BLEACH also inspired a DC comic. The creator of Tekken is also a fan since Ichigo is canonically shown to be a Tekken fan in the fullbring arc when he lends his game to Tatsuki if yall remember that TYBW is HOW OG BLEACH was SUPPOSE to be adapted. So excited for y’all. Get ready for this anime, the plot, animation, osts, reveals and twists are crazy. Ya’ll ain’t ready for EP 6 and 7 👀

Ichigoat

Yes Ik ig u could say after Mickey left I couldn’t continue watching the bleach disrespect and I thought they’d finally have respect for bleach and watch the sub but hey guess not

KingCapone

The Quincies deserved it. Soul reapers were like, "Hey, you're literally destroying the world. Please stop." and the quincies were like, "Nah son. We're gonna do what we do because only we matter." The soul society literally did its job in protecting the cycle. It someone tries to destroy the world and refuse to be reasoned with, they cannot continue to be a thing. The quincies' arrogance is what destroyed them. Like seriously how hard is it to just not destroy the world? With their powers they could literally just restrain hollows and work with the soul society to exorcise them and continue the cycle. So no, Quincies have **always** been synonymous with Nazis as their entire thing is extermination while the soul society is about rebirth. If you think the soul society are the real nazis then you took entirely the wrong lesson from this story and I genuinely don't know what to tell you 🤷‍♂️

Smash Bran'Discootch

Have you been living under a rock this past year? They've been watching the entire series dubbed.

Captain K'nuckles

Entitled why? I want to support them but I only consume Bleach from them, one episode a week for ten bucks is just not worth it for me?

KindaWeirdChampBro

Man. Imagine being so entitled... tsk tsk tsk

Smash Bran'Discootch

I didn’t spoil anything. I did not say what happens to who or when or how or by who. I just said nobody has plot armor. That’s not a spoiler lol

GrimmxLaw22

Damn it’s dub the disrespect

KingCapone

My dude. Spoilers. They read these comments o.O

Smash Bran'Discootch

I love the end of that poem which is also present in one of the cour 1 trailers too (I believe the third one. "Bring down the blade with the strength to shatter fate"

StuntonemSteve

Not really. There's TONS of plot armor. I can think of two Zombies that were cured, a fan-favorite character whose death was reversed by negative fan backlash, a donut who eventually got cyborged up, holy form activiation bringing dead (or damn near dead) characters back to full health. Two captains killed offscreen by Gremmy, who wind up making it to the epilogues, Hell Arc, etc... An artificial girl who gets remade as her 8th iteration....

Nick A Sam III

Why though? If it was because they are burnt out from Bleach, I understand, but that's clearly not the case. It's just for the sake of milking the fanbase as long as possible. :/

KindaWeirdChampBro

#SundayRundown I am so happy you guys are finally here! I also am happy you are going to watch all the way to the very end of the episode, because in nearly every episode, there is a post credit scene. So I was gonna be worried that you guys would miss some important details that happen after the credits roll but happy you confirmed that will not be the case lol. Enjoy this arc, this is PEAK Bleach every episode just gets better and better! Also Fun Fact Kubo has a lot of input in this arc and even now he is working on adding things. He added a lot of things that weren’t in the manga because he ran out of time, but thanks to the anime he can add things and fights that he wish he did. Lastly I do hope you do some 2 parters because there are a couple of episodes that aired together and would love if it would be the same upload wise. Just something to think about

Littletom52

#SundayRundown Bleach - Soooo Yhwach's name comes from the original name of god in judeo-christian mythology. See there were strict prohibitions about speaking the original name of god. "Yaweh" is a generally used term but nobody knows for sure if that is correct. How ancient Hebrew writing worked is that the same symbol could hold different pronunciations....which is guess is how all writing works...It could translate to "I am" or "To be", but basically Yhwach is saying with his very name, "I'm god, bitches!" Also belated happy birthday Suraj. Also Also go back and look at my explanation of gnosticism and keep it in mind while watching this series XD

Smash Bran'Discootch

It is what it is

Nick

Yeah most of these seasons episodes are best watched in pairs

Jesus Gonzales

😭😭😂

Brandoly Rivera

True x2

Brandoly Rivera

True but the Nazi inspiration is only in design the actual Nazis are the Soul Society. They're the ones who decimated the Quincies and rewrote history.

Castiel_01x

They changed some words with the dub. In the sub, Yama doesn't say "that's Sasakibe's lightning", he says that it's Sasakibe's bankai. Also, ignore ALL perceived plot armor for this arc. NOBODY has plot armor this arc.

GrimmxLaw22

I really, really don't think one episode per week is a good call. Like at all. Just reading the comments here I see so many people think the same. I'll be renewing in three months or so if it remains like this, but hopefully you guys can reconsider. I want to support you guys but one episode a week is just not enough to justify it for me

KindaWeirdChampBro

#SundayRundown Bleach You don’t understand how hype this episode was when it aired, it immediately ranked top 1 in “My Anime List” for a week beating FMAB. That a side, there is something I believe you should know, there was an additional chapter in a volume which works as a prequel to episode 1 of Bleach. There Ichigo is the focus and he has a poem that is relevant to the whole story and his journey: “It spins. The world changes. It turns. Each time it touches the sun and the moon… it takes a new shape. The one thing that does not change… …is my powerlessness. It’s turning. If fate is a millstone… …then we are the grist. There is nothing we can do. So I wish for strength. If I cannot protect them from the wheel… …then give me a strong blade… …and enough strength… …to shatter fate.” Also, as you could see, the quincys shown have a heavy nazi inspiration, in their design, music and personality. Another thing is that as you could see, sometimes characters will receive splash screens, I would heavily recommend going back at the end of the episode and taking notes from them, as sometimes they contain crucial information that would not be repeated again. Finally, one of the biggest memes of the series is the term “Bankai spammers”, this refers to characters who use it in almost every fight; the biggest culprits of these are: Toshiro, Byakuya, Renji and Ichigo.

BLEACH: Thousand Year Blood War #SundayRundown You guys took your time, but what a thunderbolt of a first episode. As a manga reader, I cannot tell you how simultaneously thankful and envious that this has dropped. Happy that your journey has led you to this stage, jealous that you are going to experience it for the first time in an almighty form, with the author directly involved and so far, able to correct his admitted shortcomings. Kubo is showcasing himself as a true visionary. No holds barred, breakneck pace and the only 'filler' you will see is anime only content that expands on the source material, instead of the crutch we are usually used to. The art and animation brings the heat, this staff is filled with superstars. The soundtrack balances charm, glory and that explosive brilliance which is quintessentially associated with the composer, Shiro Sagisu. This is not just a project, but a miracle of an adaptation, one that will not just leave an impression. It will continually captivate you in awe, episode after episode, escalating in such a way that will keep you on your toes, if you are not already giving it a standing ovation. This is not a call for excitement, but a fearful warning that you and your standards will not be the same after you are done. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Thousand Year Blood War.

#Sunday Rundown Bleach So the difference between Soul Reapers and Quincies is that Soul Reapers purify Hollows and allow them to enter into the soul cycle while Quincies essentially destroy them. So when the Quincies continued to do their thing it caused an imbalance in souls between the Soul Society and Living World which threatened the worlds' existence. This difference in ideology caused an altercation between the two which resulted in a war and ended in the annihilation of the Quincies.

#SundayRundown BLEACH TYBW In reference to the day that this episode dropped back in October 10th of 2022 - “10×10×10 = 1000 10 years on the 10th day of the 10th month for an arc adaptation that’ll be 10/10. Was it all just a coincidence, or was it inevitably prophesied and planned from the beginning? The truth lingers just just like the meaning of 🔥BLEACH🔥that will be fully realized. To all those that fought for Bleach’s return, never gave up hope through all the hate and slander as well as realizing how philosophically deep, mature, multilayered, abstract and complex nuanced it is, this is for you. If all things are truly in place, the anime will finally reflect and surpass the manga as the superior canon. It’s reputation will be rectified. This arc will remind and prove why Bleach was in the Big3 dominating all these NewGen with a vengeance in full force.” And now Present day as where we are now 36/50+ episodes in, were all things truly in place, did the anime reflect & surpass the manga as the superior canon, was its reputation rectified, and finally remind & prove why it was & is in the big3 dominating the competition? “YES YES YES YES” critically speaking, this is the greatest comeback in anime history with the highest & most consistent rated series out of any seasonal release and has been so successful that it made the studio restructure its business plans by creating a subsidiary studio that pays animators better to allocate more resources by the formation with the latest part and all future projects known as Pierrot Films. Now regarding the lyrics of the music playing in Ichigo’s battle with that Quincy Arrancar, here are the lyrics and theme titled “1130 TYBW, full orchestra choir”https://youtu.be/jT3lsH02drQ?si=nHJlhg7BJ8ykXTy7 as one of the best new main one of this arc. “After our world the next generation create their life their manifestation not with the ills, mistakes, depravation that brought us to our final cessation Virgin the spirit that blessed upon them pure and untarnished shall not destroy them unless they suffer sin and temptation And with god’s will they stand a chance of making the sacrifice that they will need- eternally!!!!”
