Due to the short week & other projects our Bleach editor was working on before the holiday, we are only able to get one episode of Bleach out for this week. I know everyone is anticipating episode 56 and we apologize for the inconvenience. We will be back to our regularly scheduled programming next week!

This comment makes no sense YG, by the time *this* hits Youtube, they'll be so far along on Patreon that the climax next episode will be weeks if not months old. No one has to wait a week in that scenario except Youtubers who don't pay for Patreon, which is the way it is now anyway.

Two quick points that might be useful to keep in mind as you watch the next few episodes:
1. Adoption in Japanese culture is different from almost every other culture. Adult adoption for example, can include adopting a son-in-law into the family and is common for families without male heirs, looking to keep a business in their family name. So the adoptee can marry the daughter of the adopted parents. And it is also not a light decision, as the family name and even head status can be passed down to the adoptee.
2. There are a number of throwaway lines that gain new context in retrospect, sometimes after a long interval. It may reveal relationships between side characters. Sometimes the subtle style of dialogue between characters reveals their opinion of each other's power scale. It would be fun to see if you can catch the setups and the payoffs.
I also like to make a list of questions I hope the story will answer and see if it happens. Like in Naruto, you wanted to see the land of the summoned frogs, Hashirama's story, his fight with Madara, the sage of six paths, etc. long before it happened. It may be fun to see how many of your questions are answered and how long it takes to get there.

Despite it being one of my favorite manga, I sincerely hope they never react to One Piece otherwise we'll be in this hellscape for 7 years minimum.

You can basically boil down the motivations like this:
People who are indifferent and are upholding law
People who think the execution is BS and trying to stop it
You pretty much nailed Yamamoto specifically

its a good $ making tactic, when it hits youtube in a few weeks/months the amounts of subscribers they'll get after the first half of the climax drops and youtubers have to wait a whole week will be massive.

So with the revelation of Yamamoto's Zanpakto I think I will be giving some trivia on old man Yama.
His Zanpakto, Ryujin Jakka, translates to Flowing Blade Young Flame and its release phrase is changed in the dub. In the dub it is 'All things in the universe turn to ashes' presented as a neutral statement about the advance of time against the power of flame. In the sub it is 'Reduce all creation to ash' basically commanding Ryujin Jakka to destroy it all.
Yamamoto's theme song, as Tite Kubo gave all his characters theme songs from actual songs, is 'Mars, the Bringer of War' the first movement in the classical orchestra 'The Planets'. Tite Kubo also released stat sheets where every character's skills were ranked out of 100 and Yamamoto got 100/100 for every category except for physical strength where he got a 60/100. He truly is the strongest Soul Reaper to ever be born.

Well thats unfortunate. Unless they put out three next week, which i doubt, they screwed the climax being in the same week.

Yall are absolutely ridiculous. 15 shows on the docket and you're up in arms because ONE of those 15 didn't get double dropped. Even if you ignore the fact that it was coming off of a federal holiday, even if you ignore the fact that it was communicated to you (but apparently not "soon enough" for some people) - the whole "I only pay for Bleach [Naruto in the past]" argument doesn't work. When you go buy a burger and they tell you they can only give you half-slices of cheese instead of a whole slice, do you scream and cry and say "I'M ONLY PAYING FOR THE CHEESE! This is ridiculous! I'm never eating here again"?
Edit: changed 14 to 15 because apparently JJK is back too.

But you are paying for early access. That’s what they promote to get you to join Patreon. Nobody is saying they don’t enjoy their reactions, but with constant mistakes, and little to no communication, it becomes frustrating.

Yamamoto is the embodiment of never underestimating old men in anime. Too badass. 🔥🔥🔥 @Mickey Yama didn't grow in size in front of Nanao, it was just dramatic effect.
Some fun facts of same voice actors:
Unohana (captain of squad 4, healing squad) = Sakura. Same VA, it's ironic since she's a healer like Sakura.
Isane (Unohana's lieutenant) = Hinata
Orihime = Also Hinata
Nanao (Shunsui's lieutenant) = Also Sakura
Sakura's VA also voices Karin, Ichigo's sister.
Shunsui = Hiruzen, the 3rd hokage
Ukitake = Gaara (which y'all already know)
Yamamoto = Madara

2023-07-06 00:46:13 +0000 UTC
So not only an entire week delay but not even some type of compensation to lighten things up such as "look out for an extra episode coming guys!" or something. It's already such a ridiculously slow rate. I get you guys have other shows and things but this is just ridiculous
Aus
2023-07-06 00:43:45 +0000 UTC
I'd like to make a few points based on the discussions I've seen here:
1) I don't think it's fair to compare Patreon to subscription services such as Netflix, Hulu, etc. Those are run by massive corporations and advertise themselves as subscription services. Patreon has and continues to primarily be a way to support creators you enjoy so that they can keep creating and focus on creating rather than being forced to work other jobs for their living, which would take away from them taking time to make content you are so invested in that a video coming out a week later than expected causes you to be this upset. You are not paying specifically for early access, that is a bonus perk. You are paying to keep the people whose content you enjoy afloat so they can keep doing it. Shift your perspective on this.
2) If you can't shift your perspective as above and are disappointed with what is being delivered, you are more than free to walk away at any time. You aren't being held hostage here. If I have a bad experience at a restaurant, for example, I'm not going to go back. But you guys are still here despite all your complaints, which tells me they must be delivering some really good stuff that you really enjoy, in which case you should be able and willing to wait one extra week, it shouldn't be a huge deal.
Pavi
2023-07-06 00:00:41 +0000 UTC
The motivations of the captains is pretty straightforward if you just think about it. Ukitake is literally Rukia’s captain and Shunsui is his friend so of course he’s going help him out. Others such as Toshiro and Unohana can sense something isn’t right about Rukia’s execution. Literally just pay attention cause it’s all there 😭💀

Shounen heads are wild. Fantastic showing everyone on why almost anything else would’ve been more fun than dealing with this ridiculousness again for so long after finishing Naruto. Bleach isn’t anywhere near good enough to have to deal with this headache.

Jesus Christ. I thought naruto fans were bad. The sheer level of entitlement and raging from this community is awful.
You all realize that businesses have issues right? Shit happens occasionally? It was a long holiday weekend and they have multiple people out on PTO. You can wait one damn week for your episode, holy shit.

2023-07-05 23:30:09 +0000 UTC
It's a decent point to ask why can't episode 56 come out tomorrow if y'all didn't have time. Lots of animators working that double time overtime for MAPPA...come on normies step it up. 😂😂
MojoJojoGojo
2023-07-05 23:13:25 +0000 UTC
When I first watched this episode, the fan-sub I was watching translated Yamamoto's release command as "Reduce all of creation to smoldering ashes; Ryujin Jakka!" To me, the line in the dub - AND the official sub - makes it sound more like he's just saying "Stuff can burn real good!" rather than giving a specific command to his sword. Anyone agree?
I know the couch crew has gotten to the big reveal. Are they still confused about the whole release command thing with zanpakuto? 'Cause the earlier seasons were a little inconsistent with it.

I just commented on this lol but the normies said in a reply to patron kenpacho they only found out this morning so the earliest notice they could have given would be TODAY, I obviously don't work for them so I can't tell you who dropped the ball or what happened but it's an unfortunate set of events.
Jackie Gibson
2023-07-05 21:34:28 +0000 UTC
Again this thing happens and instead of feedback being taken into consideration it gets muddied by all the overreacting comments and gets brushed off as ungrateful subscribers. I don't need a triple drop, a quadruple drop or whatever, I just need COMMUNICATION. If the video hasn't been edited and there is no full length then you guys knew about it so why not tell us. I would be super duper down with you guys having issues but let us know please. I wouldn't be saying this if this was the first time it happened. Yes people overreact, agreed and they should behave themselves, but that doesn't take away from your guys lack of communication
bondbond53
2023-07-05 21:25:53 +0000 UTC
They did reply in a comment to patron kenpacho earlier that they only found out it wasn't ready today, so they literally could not have put out an earlier notice.

Douglas Kelley

Just a suggestion for the future: people tend to not be as upset about things being canceled or put on hold when they are told ahead of time. Telling people the day of usually doesn't go well.
Temperistic

The motivations are clearly set up and Chris even explained clearly Yamamoto's 💀 But they are the normies and will need "those" episodes to clear things up.

episode 56 is just yoruichi vs sui-feng lol. People really acting like its the ichigo bankai episode (58). Of course now if we dont get 56 this week or a triple it does mean that episodes delayed another week.

2023-07-05 20:38:44 +0000 UTC
No motivation??? Umm rukias is his lieutenant and like Aizen believes this execution is toooo severe of a punishment and Shunsui is his best friend clearly not an asshole as how he showed in the Chad fight. I don’t understand how it’s not that obvious that that’s there motivation. Don’t fall into that trap that bleach doesn’t have depth because you have to remember the lore it gives. It’s not like HxH that over explain things. Kubos way of writing is show instead of tell so you gotta use context clues in most instances.

If you guys already filmed the drunk explanation and finished End of Evangelion and the show I think this is a great video to watch to help explain the events of the story (especially things that weren’t spelled out and listed details about the ways in which the show is a stylized retelling of Genesis from the Bible)
https://youtu.be/E5gVDDpviKo
There are some other great videos about the show that deconstruct the themes, am happy to share those if you guys haven’t already watched them
Excited about the drunk explanation (hope pictures were included!!!) and excited for potential video essay(s) or maybe just a video discussing the series or reacting to videos abt the series (no pressure)
Great discussions! Spidey on top of things and everyone asking the right questions. Hope you guys have had fun with the show
Also this a really great article diving into Misato and Ritsuko’s behavior, there’s a lot of interesting things done to contrast them and comment on the way women are expected to behave in society! (Chart from the article https://imgur.com/a/FBoVByo) Misato’s insecurities and the ways in which she’s judged by others (including Ritsuko) for being a sexually active woman are contrasted with Ritsuko who plays herself as above it all but we see how insecure she is and that she stops wearing make up when Gendo is out of town. It’s really interesting to see these deeply broken characters who can’t stop chasing their deceased parents masquerading as more than they are, we’re all out here just trying our best lol

I really have to wonder whether the people losing their minds over Bleach would be as upset if something similar happened to... say... The Office, or Ted Lasso. Or are they just upset because this happens to affect the one thing they pay attention to on this Patreon?

I will say again...subscribing to a $10-15 patreon for only one show is just downright stupid. I've been subscribed to them for 5 years now, and I cancel when there's only one show that entertains me. Imagine paying $10 for 8 videos lol...couldn't be me. Like now, I watch their Ted Lasso, The Office, Boondocks, Evangelion, Oshi no Ko, Buffy, and Rebels reactions. I get so much bang for my buck. I don't understand people who only sign up for one show. Imagine getting netflix and disney+ just for one show ridiculous.

In last 2 week more than 2-3 cases
Bleach 55-56 will come in Wednesday and it should be prepared from atleast 2 days ago
Why always editing in the last minute ?
If something supposed to come in patreon 10th July then it should be ready within 8th July
But normies will do in 10th July and post late or will post like this and say we are very shit sorry
Lame Excuse each time
It can be avoidable each time
You guys have 11000+ patreon members

They are stated to being superior to their peers and predecessors at the academy, canonically. But no one will force you to accept canon lore. In fact, they were stated to being transcendent to their peers and predecessors at academy, even though we know in hindsight their classmate Tokinada was quite strong.
Michael

Why not just release the episode when it's ready instead of dropping it next week? Because you guys are not going to drop three episodes next week.
MackeyMoose
2023-07-05 19:04:12 +0000 UTC
yup, but they needed to drop 6 episodes per week if they wanted to catch up in time for the new season from when they started, its more cost effective to do 2 a week and drag it on for 1.7 years of subscription time.

Michael
2023-07-05 19:00:20 +0000 UTC
Shunsui/Jushiro are the first ever students (from Yamamoto's shinigami/soul reaper academy) turned captains in Gotei 13 history. They are quite old (700+ years old), and are stated to be transcendent aka vastly superior to their peers and predecessors at the academy.
