| THIS IS AN ANIME ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS THE MANGA BEYOND THIS EPISODE. ---------------------------------------- Well...it was obvious that Nukui would die. And I was waiting for the connection between Kifune and this story and looks like I was right. He is with that old man. Overall it was pretty...lame. |
     |
| hmmmm.... this episode was rather anti-climatic... I was expecting more from ichigo's fight, that other guy died waaaay too easily in my opinion... oh well... the next episode seems promising enough ^^... looking forward to it |
| ~ The Statement Below is True. ~ ~ The Statement Above is False. ~ |
| lol just when i thought this story line would be interesting. a show's really no fun if you know whats going to happen. the ending was just a downer....im not really looking forward to the rest of it. ill just watch it for the sake of it, after having seen 178 eps, might as well see it through. |
| I don't like this arc because, once again, they recycled something from earlier in the series...this whole "nightmare attack" used on Ichigo seriously reminded me of the Kingfisher's tactics when he fought Ichigo in episode 9. Also, it's about time they revealed the connection between the two storylines. Overall, this whole arc is just not well thought out. They could've done so much more. |
   |
| It wasn't a very good episode. It was decent up until Nukui blew himself up, and then it went downhill from there. Please let the rest of the arc finish soon. |
     |
| Hmm, I'm not quite sure what we should expect from the arch, some people are predicting an end to it within a few episodes, but to be placed so horribly within the normal storyline it wouldn't make much sense unless there was a need to fill out the story line for a good while. This arch is filler no matter which way you look at it, they can't introduce something to the anime that doesn't currently exist in the manga story line, without a way to dismiss it later. The episode itself is probably as expected, they can't show off new attacks or power, and the enemies power can't conflict with any future or past events. So they would have to be fairly weak. |
 |
| I'm kinda disappointed that the dude Ichigo was fighting just...blew up (though I was hoping the battle wouldn't be too long-winded as well) but the ending really got me excited. Finally some more 3rd division action, wewt! I can't wait for next week's episode now. |
| So...Nukui just blew up like his weaker comrades. As said, the battle and the nightmare attack was very lame. It was fairly predictable obvious that Kifune is on the side of the old man if they wanted to merge the storylines. |
     |
| It was predictable that Nukui would die, and I also think it was predictable that Kifune was involved with the ninja guys. Overall, this was a rather boring episode. |
| uhg. And to think they are probably gonna drag this story into Soul Society as well. I think the end is still far away.... >.> |
 |
| I hope it ends soon. Atleast he pulled out his mask. The second I heard that hollow howl from ichigo I was like fuck yes, and sure enough he had the mask on. |
 |
| The only thing i liked about the episode was the flashback about his mom. the rest was crap. |
 |
| Wow the battle i was waiting to see sucked! i expected lot more.... :( |
| Well that was kinda an anti-climax.... he just blew himself up, like the other dude did vs Rukia >_< And all Ichigo did was throw one getsuga tenshou, seen that more often, doesn't really matter vs which opponent he uses it if they're as lame as this dude, getsuga tenshou isn't THAT interesting to see anymore... in a way, it WAS a unique fight, but not one of the good unique ones >_< Hehe, but I know for sure that looooots of people thought this : Whoaaa... What would happen if KENPACHI had a bakkouto :p |
| It was pretty predictable. I guess that all the Soul Society-fighting in the intro was there for a reason. |
   |
| Ok, it's getting REALLY boring... when's this arc gonna end... :/ |
| im finally gettin this filler...so this is all set up after the aizen arc...but i still dont get how they come up with the wackest filller eps...i mean atleast make them some kind of...ionno...they could have did a back story on some of the regular people instead of making meaningless stufff like this...owell it should be back to the main arc soon.. |
 |
| It was alright. I think Ichigo should have brought out his Vizard mask earlier in the fight. Interesting twist at the end though. |
Pokedude97 said: It wasn't a very good episode. It was decent up until Nukui blew himself up, and then it went downhill from there. Please let the rest of the arc finish soon. My thoughts exactly. I did like Ichigo overcoming the nightmare attack, it was good to be reminded of Ichigo's back story. But really, the filler story in itself is so far uneventful and just full of meaningless fights. I mean, Bleach is all about meaningless fights, but at least in the real story they present it in style. Ichigo also took a tad long to finish things off even after he put his mask on ... I mean, when he fought the privaron espada guy he took him out in a second after he put on his mask. So this guy is espada level? I think not. At least the animation was decent the past couple eps. |
 |
| Really enjoyed the episode, this was the best fight of the filler arc, reminded me how cool Ichigo is. Then it goes to SS & why is it everything in SS in this filler arc is so boring? |
| The first half of the episode was fairly decent. Still, why do they keep using Ichigo's backstory? Isn't enough that he had to "fight" his mother when dealing with the Great Fisher? Dejá vu =P The rest of the episode was a waste. Yeah. they did connected the Kasumi-ouji plot to what's happening in the Gotei 13, but still.... meh I so hate filler arcs -.- |
 |
| Yeah, everyone knew that the purple hair guy that Ichigo was fighting was going to die (i can never remember names, oh well he's dead :P) that was clearly obvious. Like more people said, they have finally connected the story line with the soul society. And I'm with the rest of the people, hurry and end this filler arc................ |
| Signature Here. |
| I really dislike fillers. ;[ |

aznb0it0ny said: sighh thought fillers would end this episode Well its kinda obvious that they wouldn't have introduced the new captain and 3rd seat and all if they weren't going to be doing something with them. :| Episode was ok. Best part was probably the dream/flashback to Ichigo's mum. And the battle was pretty anti-climatic. |
 Felli disapproves of this thread. |
| I kind of had an idea that Kifune was involved with that man somehow... I am wondering how things will go with Amagai. Anyway, I want to get back to the Aizen arc T_T |
 |
| Uhhh... wow =_= The only thing that I actually liked about this episode waqs chibi Ichigo... cuuute!! >.< And I never liked Kifune anyways soo >.> |
     Sig WILL change soon~ |
| well, i always knew 3rd seat kifune was flaky as hell. so im happy it came out. as far as homebody with the purple hair goes, they could of had him stick around more or something. i guess they wanted to move on with the story. kind of like how they just had ichigo and the crew just waltz out of hueco mundo. o well, now that we're back in soul society i hope it will pick up. |
 |
| how bout the music from the scene in which Icchigo awakens from his nightmare...that was cool..liked it :) |
 |
| kinda boring -.- .... not as good as i expected it to be |
     |
| Alright as far as fillers go, but this needs to end soon. It really is bad of the company to stop in the middle of an arc to show us this nonsense. |
 |
| That almost felt like another Grand Fisher moment. |
 |
| Pretty lame, only liked the part where ichigo talked with his mom |
| "The weak get washed away by the tides of fate...The strong drink it up."-Godot |
| Obvious ending. >_> |
Life is really simple, but we insist on making it complicated.~ |
| It was okay, at least there was some action, better than no action, but I can't wait until they return to the HM arc! |
| I liked the flashback to Ichigo's mum scene. |
| As if they ended the main battle with the ninja guy just blowing up!? At least we might see the crossing of the two arcs, eventually... |
 |
| That flashback added a little bit more to Ichigo's character. I know it's been done way back in the beginning of the series but it was refreshing to see a young Ichigo after so long. The battle was kind of disappointing, although Ichigo did use his visored form, I wanted that Getsuga Tenshou to be 10 times flashier lol. Looks like the real plot for this story is starting to move. Let's see where this goes. |
 |
| DASDFGHJKL; anything with Ichigo and his mom tears my heart to shreds ;A; chibi Ichigo is so fucking kawaii and his mama is so pretty D': Nukui looks like a piece of muscle... lol.... at one point, he even looked like Patrick from Spongebob. Smh. The part when he says "Since ancient times..." I was like, ROFL!!!!!! In the middle of a battle? Storytime? LULZ xD Orokana. --- Arigatou, Nanao-chan. Now I know how to repel pushy salesmen XD |
| Lovely development, lets see what's next! |
 |
| well..i think i am the only one who'll say that i miss masaki and i really like her..this episode was good..still feeling so bad for ichigo :'( |
| The guy exploded lol! Ichigo was like "well, that was easy" lol. So glasses is evil then! |
