can someone direct me to the episodes from 23 to 37? im scrolling thru the feed and it seems theres a huge gap? *nvm im just getting used to how they structure things here. i am not on patreon often.

Because as a reactor you must discuss whats happening, when you're discussing as it happens you miss dialogue. So they multitaask and talk while reading subtitles

dannydarko27

Or we could wait until the show tells them.

Ezra09

missing episodes 30-33

Ghost G

its because they can react and still understand what is being said

Aadit Doshi

1st of all, Normies why do you turn on the bleach subtitles when watching in English Dub. Please do NOT do that. Bleach is one of the few animes that has the Most Clearest & Excellent English Dub.

God the Ichigo and Kenny fight is so freaking good. Also here are some really interesting facts about 'Hollow Ichigo' The name Hollow Ichigo isn't actually used in the manga or anime. It only exists as a way to market it/put it in a script. (Also in some of the video games they just labeled him as 'Ogihci Ikasoruk' literally Ichigo's name backwards.) The actual entity itself is unnamed at the point the anime script was being written. There is also a prevalent fan nickname for Hollow Ichigo, Shirosaki Hichigo. Shirosaki because the kuro in Kurosaki means black and shiro means white, referencing the inverted colors. Hichigo because it is a portmanteau of Hollow Ichigo.

They're watching the Netflix version, so they'll be seeing the director's cut of those episodes by default.

So there are 2 discussions about skipping openings for spoilers in this comment section, and I feel like opening 3 is not one that needs to be skipped. I rewatched them to see which ones have spoilers and I’ll say that with Bleach you’re pretty safe with not needing to skip openings. So here’s a list of all the openings and if they potentially spoil something. It also includes Openings 1 and 2 even though they’ve seen those ones Opening 1 shows all of the important characters and Byakuya Opening 2, shows some of the captains and Soul reapers and but they’re shown in episodes before the opening begins airing. Every fight that happens in that opening, except Ichigo vs Kenpachi and Renji, doesn’t happen. Opening 3 maybe some of the captain's zanpakuto, but that’s not a huge deal. And one of the fights that everyone knows is coming anyway Opening 4 Nothing and it’s filler Opening 5 Nothing Opening 6 potentially spoils one thing, but it’s really vague and it flys over the heads of most people I’ve seen react to the show Opening 7 Nothing Opening 8 Nothing and it’s filler Opening 9 Nothing Opening 10 Nothing Opening 11 Nothing and it’s filler Opening 12 spoils some stuff Opening 13 spoils some stuff Opening 14 Nothing and it’s filler Opening 15 Nothing Opening 16 Spoils who fights who and 1 other thing but it goes by so fast that unless you pause you’d never notice it.

David Butt

Don’t know how far you are in real time watching NGE, but please make sure you watch the Director’s Cuts of episodes 21-24!

Chandler Buchanan

I mean yeah but I do think Eva in particular is largely about the desire to connect with other people and the difficulty doing so, and horniness is one avenue to explore that. Don't really think you can make an honest portrayal of lonely teenagers starved for connection without exploring their horniness.

Payam Sharifi

Bleach’s b-roll and flashbacks aren’t as bad as seeing Naruto’s swingset every other episode

Nick A Sam III

@Navi, yes some characters are just called by their last names or their first names it just depends. For example squad 8 captain Shunsui Kyoraku, his lieutenant will calls him Captain Kyoraku or just "captain". Lieutenants usually address their captains as so. Another captain may call him Shunsui so it depends. Same with squad 11 Kenpachi Zaraki but Yachiru (little pink haired girl) just calls him Kenny. @Mickey, yes that was Chad's blood. It's black due to censorship. You guys favorite osts so far to help you with the names: Precipice of defeat (Chris favorite), Enemy Unseen (lol love yall's reaction to it every time it plays😂), Creeping Shadows (Suraj's favorite), Battle Ignition

Kayso

Plus with all the comments saying it's already in it's released form it's kind of a spoiler, since it gets revealed in episode 42. I don't blame them for not knowing because up to this point you don't really know like @Shockzz1234 for regarding shikai. I'm sure they know now though since they are a few episodes ahead

Kayso

Ichigo's zanpakutou is already release, somebody tell them.

Roland The Gunslinger

The Sword aready transform. Even if they dont know the concept by name, they shoukd have get by now that Zangetsu is in his released form.

Roland The Gunslinger

Because they haven't been introduced to the concept of "shikai" yet. Once they're introduced to it properly (you know when), they'll have a better grasp of it imo.

Shockzz1234

There’s a difference between having fan service and having scenes where characters literally commit sex crimes

space1999

love it, need moarrrrr, convo & scenes from inner world very important later later later on....

Fazil Ramdass

How is it that they still haven’t realized the ichigo is always in shikai. It’s not that difficult.

Sonicluis

Actually no. Kenpachi is not using any release as he has no name for his blade and they very much make a point of that fact here in this episode

Joel Sasmad

It's not really like Kenpachi. Ichigo's sword in always in shikai, but Kenny's sword is just sealed.

Abdull Zubair

Someone's gotta let Navi know that Ichigo's sword is already in its release form (shikai) the same way that Kenpachi's sword is always released.

"I think “uncomfortably horny” is the perfect way to describe most anime aimed at kids and teens" its almost like teenage boys are super horny so they aim it at them

Mr I like spam

I disagree It shows Powers of some characters that they haven't seen yet. Like some of the Bankais. It also shows Yoruichi (you know what I mean).

Aj Gabino

I think “uncomfortably horny” is the perfect way to describe most anime aimed at kids and teens. Like even Bleach has had some wild moments with Kon and upskirt shots and excessive boobs Even going back to Dragon Ball Roshi is a straight up a sex offender and Oolong literally gave Bulma a roofied drink to knock her out so he could ufcking m***st her, all of it being played for laughs I know Japan is super repressed and has weird age laws that are just being changed now but it’s flat out uncomfortable to recommend a lot of Shonen to people… especially Eva (which I still really like a lot)

space1999

I really don’t think opening 3 is a spoiler honestly it only elevates the excitement of this arc. You guys should watch it

Lila A

I mean we did have a Rei episode but I get that you want more. Her characterisation is a bit more subtle

bondbond53

I agree. Bleach is also the best long running shonen anime when it comes to not spoiling stuff in their openings. Out of the 16 openings that we have for the show less than a third of them have spoilers

David Butt

I think one of my biggest pet peeves are people who insist the normies skip anime openings for "spoilers". Bruh, none of us skipped anime openings when we were watching these shows and half the stuff in the OP doesn't even happen. So we end up with the normies looking away for god knows how many episodes, just in CASE they see something that might be a spoiler. Its such a minor thing.

Brakthir

Reiatsu is pronounced like Ray Ah T Soo

Benjamin Donahue

Uncut looks like it's up on their website.

Andrew W

HA! You were fools to think the power of trust and friendship existed in this world 😈 #Bleach

Q

IS IT EVA OCLOCK YET?

John Prichard

man, i'm sick of people telling the couch not to watch openings. None of us skipped openings when we were watching the show and it didn't spoil shit for us. Let them have the experience we did (without fillers obv)

Brakthir

Patiently waiting like Gendo Ikari for Evangelion to drop.

Green Ranger

Here for Eva can't wait.

Charles Morgan

Has anyone explained Navi , that Ichis zanpakutou is already in released /shikai form? Its basically Kenpachis approach in a way

Edgar

There's a new ED by the way

SuperSickMedia

Its so dope even if it is one of the most confusing ones from a power perspective.

TrixieTurner

He didn’t pull out a powerup tho he just used his zanpakuto

Karma

Seeing how you guys reacted brought me right back to college where I was watching this for the first time. FANTASTIC! - Since y'all are ahead, here's a warning about the upcoming 3rd opening: DON'T WATCH IT! Remember that Naruto opening that you had to wait a long time to watch? This one's like that. Episode 52 is when it starts, and you should avoid watching it until episode 61. Also, if you haven't started watching the after-credits segments by then, you absolutely should start watching them at episode 54. My suggestion: Just let the ending play, then avert your eyes for the preview (you can listen to it, 'cause they don't talk about what's going to happen next, it's just fun character banter), then look again when it's time for the after-credits bit. 👍🏼

Nabeshin

Yeah the power scaling has never been great for bleach but it's especially booty here.

TrixieTurner

One thing that makes Ichigo different from other MCs is that he takes Ls... alot of Ls. Even after he pulls a powerup from his butt.

MarkyO

Kenpachi vs Ichigo is one of my favorite fights in the series the importance of a name is a big theme of it. And how not working with your zanpakuto can bring an opposite affect no matter how strong you are. I do like how Kubo made Ichigo and Zangetsu complete opposites here when it comes to the zanpakuto. I also like the look into Ichigo’s character where he doesn’t care about just surviving and he thinks fighting just to fight is pointless none of that matters if he doesn’t win.

Karma

Just a 🐐 doing 🐐 shit

One advice for bleach, remember this battle
