We hit 100,000 subscribers! A new video, plus a thank you.

Well, we did it! We hit this massive milestone that honestly has felt like a dream for so long. I wanted to give all of you on Patreon an additional, heartfelt thank you for truly believing in me. This video is going out to everyone at once because I literally just whipped it up in a frenzy out of nowhere because I didn't think we'd hit 100K yet, but here we are. 

Once again, I want to thank you guys in particular so very much. You are truly amazing and your support really helps me...

[NEW VIDEO] - THE COMPLETED BANKAI - Toshiro Hitsugaya's True Power, Analysed

Hey everyone! I apologise for this video going live on Patreon a few hours later than I would've liked, but I had some annoying technical problems to deal with. But at least we're here now!

It finally occurred to me that I've somewhat neglected one of Bleach's most popular entities - Toshiro Hitsugaya! So I figured we'd take an (admittedly brief) look at his adult form at the end of the series.

I hope you enjoy the video and as always, thanks for the support!

[NEW VIDEO] - NANAO ISE - Bleach Character ANALYSIS | Daughter of Priests

So this is a bit of a random upload - I don't normally post two character analysis videos so close together, but I just really wanted to talk about a Vice-Captain for some reason.

And so here's a character analysis on the former Vice-Captain of Squad 8, and the CURRENT Vice-Captain of Squad 1, Nanao Ise! I think she's quite the underrepresented character overall, so this was a lot of fun to delve into.

Enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] - ALL BANKAI IN BLEACH - A Recap of EVERY New Bankai by Arc

Hey guys! I'm really excited for this video - honestly I'm just really pleased with how it turned out. I've put a lot of effort into this and hopefully it shows. 

It was a lot of fun chronicling the various Bankai that were revealed in each arc, and you might be surprised with how uneven the representation actually is throughout the series. I know I was! 

Let me know what you think and what your favourite Bankai of all time is - plus, whose Bankai would you have liked to...

[NEW VIDEO] - SADO 'CHAD' YASUTORA - Bleach Character ANALYSIS | The Giant and the Devil

Hey everyone! Apologies for the silence over the last week, but I've been busying away on this behemoth.

Chad was recently voted in as the next topic for a Bleach Character Analysis, and as the first real 'main' character we've examined, I wanted to do it properly. Hopefully this video gives you a deeper insight into Chad, and the trajectory that his development took over time.

Enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] - A Brief Look at SHINJI & URAHARA'S New 'BEYOND BANKAI' Brave Souls Forms

This is something of a bonus video - I wasn't originally planning to talk about these two new forms debuting in Bleach: Brave Souls, but I got a lot of requests to discuss them anyway! 

The forms themselves are interesting, and I hope I've got something equally interesting to say about them. Let me know what you think of the designs themselves and how they fit the characters!

Enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] - TESSAI, THE KIDO MASTER

In this first video from our new series, 'Bleach: Forgotten Characters', we're taking a look at Tessai Tsukabishi, a barely explored character with loads of hidden potential!

One of the most proficient 'Kido' users in the series, Tessai gives us an opportunity to really discuss someone completely new.

Enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] - The Complete Known History of 'THE KENPACHI'

Hello! As we get closer to the end of the week, it's time for a video on Kenpachi.

But not just Kenpachi Zaraki - in fact, this video (which is somewhat short by my standards, I know) looks at the complete known history of the title of 'The Kenpachi' throughout the ages. 

From the early, brutal days of a bloodletting Gotei 13, to the light novel Spirits Are Forever With You and more, discover the path most soaked with blood as we look at the story of The Kenpachi!

[NEW VIDEO] - The GREATEST Aizen Moment in Bleach, EVER

Happy November everyone! 

I thought we'd kick off the month with a nice Aizen video to ease us into things. He's just a ton of fun to talk about and yes, I'm extremely biased.

As always, I hope you enjoy the video. Let me know if you agree that this is Aizen's crowning moment, or if there's another scene that better embodies him as a character. Thanks guys!

[NEW VIDEO] - Top 10 Most GRUESOME Bleach Moments, RANKED

Happy Halloween! (Well. for tomorrow anyway...)

Here's a bonus video looking at some of Bleach's bloodiest, goriest, and most wince-inducing moments. As a battle manga series, there's obviously a ton of stylised, dynamic. violence in Bleach - but there are a few times where Kubo got pretty dark.

For the spookiest day of the year, I decided to rank what I thought were the top 10 - I hope you enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] - HISAGI'S BANKAI, Explained - The Chains of Rebirth

As Halloween draws near we just took a look at the creepy Quilge Opie, and now it's time to discuss a character who embodies fear in Bleach - no, not As Nodt, but Hisagi!

Hey everyone, I hope you're doing well. Today we're looking at Hisagi's Bankai, Fushi no Kojo, and how it not only represents both him and his zanpakuto, Kazeshini, but redefined them too. Let me know what you thought of his Bankai, as it was revealed in CFYOW!

Thanks guys!

[NEW VIDEO] - How QUILGE OPIE Taught Us to FEAR the Wandenreich

Oh look, another video where I've talked for way too long about a secondary character...oops...

I hope you guys enjoy this deep look into the character of the monstrous Quilge Opie, the man who acted as the face of the Wandenreich for a large part of the first invasion!

Thank you so much for your continued support - you guys are amazing.

[NEW VIDEO] THE LIGHTNING CAT - Analysing Yoruichi's Questionable ULTIMATE Technique

Another week flies by and comes to an end - seriously, it really feels like we're hurtling towards the end of the year at this rate.

Anyway, today's video is kind of a combination of topics, looking mostly at Yoruichi's Shunryo Kokubyo Senki form, but under the umbrella topic of Shunko as a whole. 

I hope you enjoy it and have a wonderful weekend! Thanks!

[NEW VIDEO] THE NEW VICE-CAPTAINS - Exploring the Mystery Lieutenants of Bleach's Hell Chapter

Today we return to the newest Bleach chapter to explore the current line-up of vice-captains, specifically those who were revealed in New Breathes From Hell!

I look at the returning faces who have been promoted, as well as go in-depth (as much as I can anyway) on the two brand new characters!

Let me know what you think of the new VCs, and enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] Did Mayuri Deserve to DIE in TYBW? A Ramble on Moral Ambiguity in Bleach

Happy Friday!

Today we've got something of a ramble on our hands. I wanted to talk about Mayuri, his actions in both the past and TYBW, and the moral greyness of a Soul Society that allows him to continue to exist in the way he does.

Let me know what you think about Mayuri and whether or not he should've faced some kind of consequences against the Quincy.

Enjoy!

[NEW VIDEO] The TOP 10 Most BROKEN Bleach Abilities, Ranked (Manga Only)

Happy October! We're kicking off the spooky season with a list that frankly was terrifying to take on.

Bleach has some of the craziest, most bonkers special abilities I've ever seen - particularly in TYBW. And while we love it for that, it makes lists like these hard to make.

Let me know what you thought of the list and what your lists would look like! As I mention in the video, there was honestly SO much more I could've added. It was a tough one.

[NEW VIDEO] - HARRIBEL'S PAST, Explained - The Espada's Truth the Manga Didn't Reveal

Harribel was always one of the most mysterious members of Aizen's Espada and unfortunately the manga did nothing to change that - she received no backstory whatsoever.

Thankfully, the anime actually changed this and gave her an entire flashback, devoted to her and her fraccion. Let's take a look at this vision of Hueco Mundo and the 3rd Espada herself!

Apologies for getting this to Patreon a bit later than usual, I wasn't feeling 100% last night but please enjoy the video!

[NEW VIDEO] - HUMAN KOMAMURA VS YHWACH - Could he AVENGE Yamamoto? | Bleach: What If?

Alright, it's been a while since the last Bleach: What If? video - 6 months in fact! 

I think this is a pretty cool one though - what if Komamura's humanification technique lasted longer than just the fight with Bambietta? What if he actually made it to Silbern and confronted Yhwach?

In this video I explore two different scenarios and how I think they could've played out - enjoy, and let me know what you think!

[NEW VIDEO] - GINJO - How a Mastery of Deception Created One of Bleach's BEST Villains

Hello! How are you? Doing well? 

Today we're finally going in-depth on one of my favourite characters, Ginjo Kugo. We'll be specifically taking a look at how he was presented during the majority of The Lost Agent arc, and how Kubo double and triple-bluffed us with his allegiance.

I really hope you enjoy - I put a lot of work into this one and I'm definitely happy with it.

[NEW VIDEO] - RENJI'S BANKAI, Explained - A Tale of Two Kings

Hey everyone, how's it going?

Apologies, I feel like I'm being very slow with my uploads recently. I've got a lot going on at the moment, including some big changes, but I hope you enjoy this latest video.

We might have seen an awful lot of Renji's Bankai throughout the years, but I still find it fascinating to go back and look at how it evolved and changed over time. And of course, to discuss the fact that Renji's Bankai seems to be the only one we ever saw where the name was ac...

[NEW VIDEO] YACHIRU & NOZARASHI - The Truth REVEALED

[NEW VIDEO] SHINJI HIRAKO vs SOSUKE AIZEN - Bleach Battle ANALYSIS | How Gods are Born

It's been a looong time coming since I uploaded the poll to find out the next battle analysis, but it's finally here. 

Over 10,000 people voted! And the overall winner was Shinji vs Aizen, which is an...interesting, if tiny battle. Still, there was plenty to talk about, as these are two of Bleach's most unique and intriguing characters. 

I hope you enjoy!

Hey guys, I hope you all had a great weekend.

Some of you probably recognise this video - sorry for the reupload! As I mentioned at the start of the month, I messed up the timings surrounding the release of this video. But now I'm fairly happy to just get it out there.

If you didn't get a chance to see it beforehand, please enjoy! And even if you did, it could be worth another watch! :P Thanks everyone!

[NEW VIDEO] - SZAYELAPORRO GRANZ - Bleach Character ANALYSIS | The Perfect Being

Now I know this one wasn't voted for, but it seems to make a lot of sense to do a character analysis on the 8th Espada, Szayelaporro Granz, now that he's returned to the limelight.

In this video we take a look at perhaps the creepiest member of the Espada, diving into his personality, his design, and his plot prominence. 

To be honest, I think there's even more to talk about when it comes to Szayelaporro, but that'll have to be a future video. Enjoy!

We're still pushing on with content related to the new Bleach chapter and this time it's a particularly fun one!

The resurgence of Szayelaporro and the huge revelation about the deceased captains means there's the potential to see a TON of familiar faces in Hell - but who are we most likely to see? I've ranked who I think the top 10 are!

Let me know if you agree at all and who you'd be most excited to see in Bleach's underworld!

SZAYELAPORRO (HELL ARC)

I knew as soon as I saw Szayelaporro in the new arc I had to try my hand at drawing him. I'm pretty pleased with it too! Although I wish I'd added his horns in now...

Okay, I know a brand new Bleach chapter is on the horizon and there are leaks everywhere, but for the time being it's content as usual! 

So, here's hoping this lengthy video can tide you over (at least for 40 minutes or so). We're taking a look at the relations...
