sadly. I wish it was at least two episodes for the first reaction to tybw

Bryan

Agree 👍

Kenpachi ザラキ

Thanks for letting me know in a chill respectful way (and actually sending proof) cuz I said this before and people get butthurt over everything lol but I also heard that Kishimoto couldn't kill off Madara because he was too strong so that explains Kaguya. I believed that for the longest but someone said that's a rumor too? So idk. It's crazy how false rumors can spread. Guess you gotta do your research

Kayso

Turns out that’s not true. It’s been debunked https://x.com/deathberry999/status/1766571816993067126?s=61&t=1VigzxkX26iJZItobY59WA

Conflictor

I'm glad Navi and Chris realized how dumb it was for them to skip the end 354. But its also kind disappointing to see Suraj and Rana make it bigger deal than it actually is.

Captain K'nuckles

TYBW being 1 episode a week is cool but how about for the drop it's a double or triple. You know, as a little treat. Just a little treat to the supporters. Hmmm. Pretty good idea right. Yeah.

Anderson Lake(The Bleach)

Congrats Normies for finishing OG Bleach, a great journey its been but the journey isn't over just yet. Road to TYBW. I can't wait especially the fact that the most recent episode was hype af. The questions you guys have still may be answered so that's good. Shout out to Bleach's amazing soundtracks. Bleach ost's are flawless I'm hype for y'all to hear how they sound in TYBW. Fun fact: When Kubo first proposed Bleach as a series for the Shonen Jump magazine, it was rejected. But Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball, wrote a letter to Kubo to encourage him to continue the story. Thanks, Toriyama. 🙏🏽

Kayso

I can't really blame Ginjo for being so paranoid. I mean the Soul Society in general is a very suspicious place. Considering that a high-ranking clan member can murder their spouse with zero repercussions and the many questionable experiments they did makes me think they could easily silence someone they deem dangerous. Plus Mayuri is his own warning.

Adam Vialpando

Let the TYBW arc begin

Acronix

Reborn! Was was at one point one of the worlds most cosplayed series and honestly we're still coping for its return

Kuro

So i will say your questions do get answered in TYBW as far as Isshin's story among many other things. Im so excited, we are finally here, TYBW here we finally go

devan feezor

Man y'all bout to be on a Rollercoaster ride in TYBW 😆 but man must be nice to watch it right after this 😅

Heavenly Demonic Emperor

She's 29 but the reason still stands

All Mighty Lowercase Jay

#SundayRundown Every questions u have and even tiny little wonder about anything it will be answered soon and u will be shocked , I can't wait 4 u reactions. Side note : I joined patreon the moment u start watching bleach and i enjoyed every reactions thank u so much ♥️

MONA.KUROSAKI

So next week TYBW start?

Heavenly Demonic Emperor

#SundayRundown#Bleach Me: Oh, the Normies have finally reached the end of OG Bleach, I wonder what they will discuss. Normies: So, who are the Gotei 13? Me: ...I honestly don't know why I expected anything different. Jokes aside, this has been a cool ride with you all, reliving one of my fave shows, and I am excited for tybw. My fellow bleach fans have already told you the most important things, so all I'll say is to have a good time and best of luck to Rana with all the names. Hint: If you want to pronounce them correctly, you're gonna have to take a german course😉

Engrossing Bear

I would recommend reacting to some of the trailers for TYBW before starting cause they're so hype.

Arctic_stark

This depends solely on whether or not Navi has the remote 😬

Captain K'nuckles

#SundayRundown : Now that you have finally seen it in dub, you can understand the meme: https://youtube.com/shorts/9x9vhZ4h64c?si=8AIG9My8klNM3avL As you can see from this short, this is when the meme “Bankai without the pause isn’t a Bankai” began, because Johnny Yong Bosch said Bankai too quickly compared to Masakazu Morita who is known for extending the pause in the syllable pronunciation of Bankai for dramatic effect. This never happened again or before, Johnny will always try and pronounce it the way Morita does it, this is just the one time fans will latch onto because it was the last time Bankai was said in the anime when it aired in 2014 until 8 years later(it was 10 years later for sub watchers because sub ended in 2012)when TYBW came back in 2022.

Reynaldo Urena

The good thing about a remake is that Tite Kubo literally said he wants it to happen. So it's not really a matter of if, moreso when (that when not being till a few years from now, yeah lol).

Shockzz1234

Hitman Reborn got done so dirty lol, Bleach managed to escape it's fate.

Shockzz1234

"commiserations to Rana, ya Allah, her struggle in pronunciation will continue. " I'm in tears, she's finished, you're so right lmao.

Shockzz1234

Renji is hilariously unfortunate, because most of his fights are either people he curbstomps or people he can't win against, and no in between.

Shockzz1234

#SUNDAYRUNDOWN BLEACH Please watch the tybw jump festa trailer at some point so you can feel how hype everyone was when it came out after 10 long years. Imagine the excitement. I cried when I saw it for the first time when I realised I'd finally get to see the rest of the manga animated. ALL QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED IN TYBW! Congratulations again guys ❤️

CalamityJay

#SundayRundown #BLEACH About Renji. Get ready for this one... His victory against Jackie Tristan brings his grand total of major victories...up to 3! WHICH MAKES HIM TIED WITH CHAD! 🤣 That's right. For the majority of the OG series, Chad had more canon dubs than Renji. Here's something crazy though: At this point (end of Fullbring), Renji, Chad, Ishida, AND Rukia are all tied with 3. 😛 If you count Ishida embarrassing Yammy and sending him to the shadow realm before he inevitably comes back, then Ishida has 4. If you disqualify Rukia's victory over Rudebone because Yammy stole her kill when he came back, then she just has 2. I still consider that a Rukia victory though; with Chad and Renji on the assist. Rukia of course has an excuse that the others don't have: being more-or-less immobile for a huge chunk of the series. The reason Renji feels disappointing in particular though, is that, unlike Ishida and Rukia, Renji's never really allowed to stand out, apart from all the times he gets into major fights that he can't win. As for Chad, he's more of a minor character who we never really expected anything from after getting "Worf Effect"-ed. That's the thing. The Worf Effect applies to CHAD, not Renji. The "I can't imagine Chad loosing." meme exists because, early on, WE REALLY COULDN'T! He was used to demonstrate how bad-ass his opponents were because "They can beat CHAD?! Holy s*&%!" That never happened with Renji, because, until this moment with Jackie, we never saw him as an absolute unit.

Nabeshin

Did you guys actually watch all of Bleach with out picking up the term Gotei 13 XD

Benjamin Donahue

TYBW was heating up in the manga when the Bleach anime ended in 2012. I was majorly disappointed that what I was reading in that particular time was not going to be animated. My younger self would wholeheartedly disagree with Prat. We did not get everything we needed lol. I hope you guys are excited for TYBW!

Bleach Expert

Cometh the hour part B is the name of the OST that was played during Ichigo Vs Ginjo

Castiel_01x

#SundayRundown Bleach CONGRATULATIONS!! OG SERIES ✅ Ichigo and catching his opponent’s attacks with his bare hands, name a better duo Suraj, you are correct in this being Ichigo’s first kill. And while normally killing someone would greatly affect your psyche, I think the reason as to why Ichigo does not seem to feel that much remorse after the battle is over is because he came to understand Ginjo, but come to a different conclusion than him. I also think that Riruka’s words helped Ichigo cope with the fact he just killed someone, because it is as she said: “Ichigo saved Ginjo”. As for the TYBW reactions, I completely understand and respect your decision to release only one episode per week, all that I ask is that you consider watching episodes 12 and 13 together in the same video, as those episodes originally released at the same time. Regarding whether to watch the openings or not, Opening 1 has minimal spoilers in my opinion, so i’ll leave that up to you. Opening 2 is completely safe to react Opening 3 is full of spoilers, which is a shame because the song is an absolute banger lmao. Should be safe to react to in the last few episodes of the season. Edit: The two Bleach novels are CFYOW (Can’t Fear Your Own World) and SAFWY (Spirits Are Forever With You), are both canon, but you do not need to read them before TYBW. I recommend either reading them or watching a video about them on your own time 😬

#Sundayrundown Yu Yu Hakusho : Mentioned it in the last one but just in case that gets skipped over - Yusuke's mom is 28 years old. Yusuke himself is 14. The math explains why Yusuke's mom is the way she is.

BLEACH #SundayRundown Congratulations on completing the original anime. The Thousand Blood War awaits. I noticed you guys talk about a 'cousin shu', who is that? Feel like we would have remembered if Ichigo has a cousin, considering we haven't seen any extended family of his. I don't believe a character like that exists in this series, so I think you're just misremembering. Anyway, I'll reiterate the recommendation for you to double drop the first two episodes of TYBW, as well as episodes 11 and 12, the latter especially. You guys lowkey spoiled yourself on Ginjo's motivations since it could still be adapted. Not that it matters honestly, you have a right to be confused. There has been no confirmation of a "Can't Fear Your Own World" adaptation, but I wouldn't be surprised if it happens. The Soul Society has always been shady. Especially given the rules regarding the transfer of power to a human, and the subsequent punishment that Rukia faced, albeit, central 46 were manipulated by Aizen, as he knew their authority was absolute. Kaname Tousen was someone who saw how corrupt they were, given what he experienced. This represents feudal Japan fairly well, especially in regards to the hierarchical structure. It also illustrates just how influential Ichigo has become, from the human boy who became a soul reaper illegally to a man who is owed a great debt. As you jump straight into the next arc, commiserations to Rana, ya Allah, her struggle in pronunciation will continue. And again, Shiro Sagisu is to thank for the soundtrack, he is an exceptional composer. You're not ready for what else he's got cooking. Lastly, I want to share the jump festa 2022 series montage, it's 15 minutes long, with several opening songs in the background. This version is subtitled, you have no time to watch it now, but it's a fun refresher that you can drop with the first TYBW episode if you don't plan on doing what I recommended earlier. Defo would help Mickey and Spidey too if they're gonna be on the coach. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=27jtvxctW9k

#Bleach SUNDAYRUNDOWN The Normies have FINALLY reached Bleach the TYBW sagaaa!!! Fun fact (from what I've seen so far): You guys will be the first big reaction channel to watch Bleach TYBW in all of its equally awesome dubbing glory! 🥳 Truly truly excited! 🎊 Another fun fact: Ever since Bleach's come back. Bandai Namco have announce a new Bleach video game called Bleach Rebirth of Souls! Which officially comes out March 21, 2025. Trailers have released and I believe the game will go up to the Arancar Arc. So if you all do decide to check out the first trailer. There are no worries of spoilers in the TYBW. (Side Note) Outside of skipping the intros for major/ minor spoilers. I forgot to mention that after episode one henceforth. There is a mini preview scene that plays right after the intros of each episode. Try your best to skip those along with the intro if you can. Can't wait for your deep dive discussions and lastly in my honest opinion. Shiro Sagisu the music composer goat, Titty Kubo(you'll see soon), and Studio Pierott have been COOKEN COOKEN.

Kefka Palazzo

Don't skip the poems at the end.

MarkyO

Everything that exists and will exist was stated in CFYOW.

#Sunday Rundown Yu Yu Hakusho Appreciate the comments about Yusuke's outfit. Togashi is one of the few mangakas (Like Tite Kubo) who would give his characters new outfits over the course of the story, Killua used to have killer outfits too, Im looking forward to comments on Botan's cool fits ! His characters got style!

Aadit Doshi

I wish. With the recent new about bleach, I hope we get the double on YuYu

#BLEACH SUNDAYRUNDOWN - In Kluboutside Kubo revealed in QnA 295, that he did end this arc earlier than planned. (The story may feel incomplete, but we do get more information later that really clears everything up) We didn't get the explanation of "what happened" to Ginjo or Tsukishima here until far later within light novels, and it makes you empathize with Ginjo's mission...The Soul Society did some overly cruel things to Ginjo. In fact the anime didn't properly display the already small amount of backstory we got for any of the fullbringers Ginjo’s comment about Isshin and Kisuke plus the Soul Society itself also has a LOT of nuance when you experience the entirety of Bleach. Just keep those in mind. Choice is an important theme expressed here, despite what happened to Ginjo and Ichigo they were still given the choice to choose how they would proceed and the separation is why they are at odds. When ginjo was done wrong he choose vengeance, yet Ichigo made the choice to protect, this is why Ginjo looks upset when Ichigo makes his decision. BTW the novels CFYOW, SAFWY AND WDKALY are CANON to BLEACH So excited for TYBW, it’s a whole different ball park to what you’ve experienced so far. Can’t wait to hear your thoughts on just the first episode. It’s about to get INSANE!!

#Bleach #SundayRundown Despite the climatic finish, the Fullbring arc at the time wasnt very well received, people felt the series was being made to continue as Jump would typically milk their best sellers and push authors to continue. Death Note is a prime example, since they originally wanted both L and Light to die together like the original japanese movie, not the terrible Netflix version. At the time One Piece, Naruto, Bleach and Hitman Reborn! All did their major war arcs together and some were made to continue as long as possible. One Piece hit the half way point, Naruto had a One Shot with Mitsuki and a 10 chapter story on Sarada, Sasuke's daughter in the arc named The Seventh Hokage and the Scarlet Spring (these were adapted to a number of Boruto Episodes), Naruto The Last and Boruto: Naruto the Movie < despite the bad rep, this movie is technically the end of the series and i do hope you guys watched this movie, since the Manga and Anime came later as an attempt to milk the franchise and reworked the story so it can be one (Boruto Two Blue Vortex is really hyped right now!) Bleach had the Fullbring Arc where the anime ended and the manga ended with The Thousand Year Blood War arc. Kubo is working with the anime staff to rework some parts of the story with some original fights never seen in the manga due to the constraints and pressure of maintaining a weekly series. Reborn! Had a poorer treatment since the anime ended on the future arc and we lost out on 2 arcs. The Simon arc was bit like the Fullbring arc, rough start but climatic finish and the Rainbow Representative War was like the TYBW for Hitman Reborn! Fans are legit begging for a remake or return of the anime since Bleach came back

Kuro

So excited for tybw!

dardo

Time for some double Yu Yu Hakusho lol.

Justin Jefferson

#sundayrundown (Bleach) In case y'all were wondering, the cool music y'all were hearing in the last 2 episodes was music that was from the 4th Bleach movie! Also regarding CFYOW, moral of the story is that The noble families of the soul society suck

Torrin

Are you guys gonna watch thousand year blood war?

#SundayRundown Bleach This might get lost in all the celebrations over finishing the og Bleach or Ichigo vs Ginjo, but I love Byakuya in episode 365. Tsukishima hit him with Book of the End and changed his past so that he was always there. But still, that doesn't ERASE Ichigo. Ichigo was still there and still as important as he was before. Byakuya has always been "logical" and calm with situations like this, he basically realised that yeah Tsukishima was there for all the big shit that happened, but so was Ichigo - and I just love Byakuya’s reasoning of “sure, you’re important to me, but Ichigo is also important to me and you caused him pain, so you gotta go man” lol, even though he may never admit to Ichigo’s face that he’s important to him. And even in the previous episode he said he was glad he was the one to fight Tsukishima as Ichigo would be too soft on him and wouldn’t kill him, so he’ll do it for Ichigo instead (very Giles in that one scene of Buffy S5 of him IYKYK). If you remember also, back in Hueco Mundo before Ichigo goes back to Karakura Town with Unohana, it was Byakuya who reminded Ichigo of his duties and how he is Karakura Town's protector and gassed him up for the fight against Aizen. And now look at him this episode too. Byakuya's relationship with Ichigo has been slowly developed over the course of the series and has now come (nearly) full circle. He went from being Ichigo's enemy, disrespecting him and calling him a mere "Ryoka Boy" to being his ally, respecting him greatly and essentially becoming one of the biggest (if not THE biggest) believer in Ichigo. I love it.

#SundayRundown "Ichigo, isn't it messed up that the Soul Society made you a cop then gave you a body cam? We live in a Soul Society." Also things like Ginjo's backstory that got left out of the series but put in the novels are a meme in the Bleach community. If you ask a question in the subreddit you will usually get the response, "It was stated in CFYOW."

Trevor

#SundayRundown Bleach oh jobber villains the great catch twenty one of bleach. Man I remember back in the day what a let down these guys were, they were complete jobbers who get kicked in the chips almost instantly. Whenever new villains are introduced they either have to job out someone from the heroes side to show how dangerous they are and you end up with people like renji but in the opposite side of you try to give the jobber heroes a win and show how strong they are you end up making the villains look like just a couple of scrubs. They will forever be trapped in this limbo hell of getting shit rocked. Oh well at least Orihime stays winning as tite kubo loves her rocking tits. Her sweater missiles consistently get more Ws than renji chad uryu and toshiro put together.

TrixieTurner

CFYOW explains more about them; yes they very rare but they are considered a "race", not only because their powers can be pased on but each entity that has a unique power system is considered a race in Bleach

Kail Andrews

I always thought of Fullbringers as mutants... spiritually aware humans that were mutated by leftover hollow reiatsu... i wouldn't classify them as a race though

SilentCilantro

#SundayRunDown bleach A quick reminder to watch the bleach 4th movie hell verse before going to TYBW, if you did like the first movie then im pretty sure you’ll find hell verse better than it by miles in all aspects , and if you didn’t , then i hope you’ll like it , because its the best thing noryuki abe could came up with before leaving the whole shonen-genre , i really do hope you guys react to it

Sojiro

I really wish we had done the zanpakuto arc. It’s one of my favorite arc even if it’s consider filler.

Sonicluis

Man, I remember watching this episode in middle school realizing this was the last episode and that the manga just started its final arc. Us Bleach fans were like the crazy guys with the tin foil hats telling everyone that eventually the anime would come back holding on to hope 😂. Then one day in 2020 at the end of another announcement for the 50,000 art gallery and the BTW anime four words “Don't give into despair” and thirty seconds of TYBW panels it was back. After almost 9 years it was like our eyes were opened as we regained our anime. Glad you guys made it, it was a long journey full of a lot of good moments and some bad *cough cough Persche and Dondochaka cough*. I hope you guys enjoy TYBW and all it has to offer. One thing to keep in mind if you guys are watching the dub is that some of the characters are going to sound different. It's been 10 years some voices changed, some of the voice actors retired or are really close to, and some didn't return because of business reasons.

Zangetsu

They will finish just a few months shy of cour 4

Socal

From what anyone skipping fillers seen it’s about 200 episodes, but I agree due to the censorship, poor direction and pacing, a remake is ideal and would make it just over 100. Realistically won’t be happening until at the earliest late 2029 for the 25th anime anniversary.

Conflictor

This is it ladies and gentlemen. They are now at the Tybw

Socal

With that we are done with the OG Bleach, have to say it was a wide ride seeing your reaction to the highs and lows of this show. Final thought? It’s good, but definitely shows it’s ages as a early 2000 series with its weekly format and filler, plus all the censorship and weird changes in the early episodes(seriously someone Studio Pierrot Ichiruki and hated Orihime because of it), so if your a new fan I’ll would have just recommended the manga as it way better in passing and tone up until TYBW. I think Bleach is definitely due for a remake with so many new fans come in to see TYBW, many of whom probably don’t have the patience to watch a 300+ episode anime. But that’s just my thoughts hope you enjoy TYBW, cause it fucking slaps

#SundayRundown Bleach Congratulations on finishing OG Bleach. So Just a suggestion but this next week you guys should watch the prologue set up EP 299 for & with the last Bleach movie 4: Hellverse before jumping into TYBW (unless you guys have already started reacting to that) as 1. It’ll be your last chance to experience OG Bleach, without interrupting your TYBW experience. 2. While the story is arguable, the concept has been canon since Ep 5 with the Hellgate, and personally would say it’s the best one, at least entertainment action wise. 3. The TYBW dub starts at least 1 month (4 Eps behind) after each TYBW part/cour starts and we don’t know if the next and last one will be at the earliest in fall of next year (specifically November like this year) or in winter 2026 at the latest. Either way, there’s no rush to watch TYBW despite everyone’s hype including my own. Even with taking a 1 week “delay”, it will be 37 to 40 weeks before you’re caught up which is by late August or September of next year and would be just in time before the earliest (October) next and last part starts.👌

Conflictor

I doubt it. Hopefully they take a full year again for cour 4.

ispeckz--

Should be enough time for cour 4

Xanny

35 weeks to be caught up 😭😭😭😭😭

ShaquanVirse

but they doing one ep per week

Kage Uzumaki

Finally it's TYBW TIME NEXT WEEK

#SundayRundown Bleach Glad that you enjoyed and finish OG Bleach. Now here are some important details that were not included from the manga and some interviews from Kubo. 1. The reason Ichigo wanted to bury Ginjo’s body it’s because he cannot pass on unless lay to rest in the human world. If kept sealed in Soul society his soul cannot join the cycle of reincarnation and eventually go to soul society as a spirit. 2. The battle pass works similarly to the seal Captains and lieutenants have to wear in order to enter the human world, so even if we do not know the exact amount you can assume he is at 1/5 of his spiritual pressure when he wears it. He had it while fighting Ginjo and still dominated him. 3. Hybrids are not as rare as you may think; all of the Arrancars and Vizards are Hollow and soul reaper hybrids. Ginjo and Ichigo are the only multi-race hybrids we’ve seen, been part human/fullbringer, soul reaper and hollow. 4. Tsukishima's ability: he can insert himself in the past of objects and living beings but that past must make sense, so when he cut Byakuya to become his master Tsukishima also changed and became powerful enough so that he could have taught Byakuya. First, he cut the sword to learn it’s weak points, then he cut him to become his teacher and receive a power boost and knowledge needed. This ability could work on anyone, really ANYONE. In my post from last week, I explained it with more detail if you wish to read it. 5. If you're wondering how strong the fullbringers really are, they're around low to mid lieutenant level, except for Ginjo and Tsukishima. They still have human bodies and capabilities but their abilities let them hurt or fight stronger opponents. 6. Ginjo’s backstory is explained in detail in the novel Can’t Fear Your Own World (CFYOW), won’t say much to avoid spoilers but just to say that he has good reasons to hate and want to destroy soul society. I can’t wait for you to experienced TYBW and Bleach’s og aesthetics and mood. Also, the anime will use the cannon designs of characters and energies, so don’t get confuse when some characters or moves look different. Even you do not put these in the Rundown it's crutial everyone gets this infomation so they are fully prepared for TYBW.
