This is one heavily censored & rushed episode! The studio cut out way too much lore and is rushing to the next big fight...
- No steroid Kon
- No Rukia's peaches
- Bankai explanation cut short
- Shinji was the one who operated on Renji and Ruki and saved their lives, and this is cut out
- Urahara stealing the hot springs tech from Kirinji cut out
- No explanation why Orihime can't just heal the captains and the broken bankais
The Bleach subreddit has a very long list of the cut content for those interested.

I can't find the list, could you send a link?

I love this episode but I do dislike like the decision in the story bring back the fullbringers even for only little bit but Kūgo Ginjō definitely died there is no way he is alive

He did die, hence why he went to Soul Society

thank you for explaining

Squad Zero is here finally!!!
Too bad my boy Oetsu didn't get to talk, I can't wait for his scenes! Next episode will be great!

And so many cameos in just one episode... Grimm, Kukaku, Ganju, Kugo, Tsukishima, Giriko and... "uncle"! That picture was unexpected!

No buff Kon for some reason tho lol

tfw no Rukia butt shot T^T lol
In all seriousness I found this another good episode, but I am kind of sad at how much of the comedy they are removing from this arc though, like Kon's buff form and the Rukia "peach" joke. I know its not the important stuff but the humor always added to the charm of the series.
Anyway it is a small complaint and I still really enjoyed this episode and the introduction of Squad Zero!

So the Zero squad is here. I hope they are better than the manga. Also kinda hoped Byakuya would've been done differently but it's fine. Also can't orihime repair it? Also no Rukia butt is going to disappoint some for sure but it's not that big of a deal. Just kinda sad that much of the comedy is being removed. Like buff Kon.

There were a couple of scenes that I don't particularly remember from the manga, so I wonder if they might've been added to clarify some stuff. Although, I simply could've just forgotten about them.

Otherwise, I wasn't expecting this episode to end so abruptly. At this point, we're so close. It's times like these when I wish they would just release full seasons.

Well we shouldn’t be surprised kubo didn’t decide to kill off byakuya he does appear in the hell arc chapter and the light novel cfyow which takes place after the tybw and that would require changing a good amount of content and then changing that as well. Plus I think it’s good kubo didn’t show us rukias peach or Kons transformation those two things felt more out of place than anything else considering how dark this arc is.

But guys you know what’s coming next kenpachi vs Unohana and everything but the rain, I can’t wait this episode was solid 9/10 for me and this episode served both a cooldown and breather from all the action and sadness. I do think byakuya should have died originally but these fans bullying kubo is quite sad, that being said I didn’t think they would change the decision to kill him off just because how much the arc would change and how it would affect cfyow and the hell arc chapter we got as he would of had to remove byakuya from both.

i like fast pace anime but my god they need to slow down. it's true previous arcs had a slow pace but there is no need for changing it THAT much

Everyone was dying last episode and after 3 min now it's full of comedy wtf, also every major enemy got revived from the dead and helping now ???????
Im still loving it but i feel like im missing 4eps worth of lore for what's happening

All the byakuya sad scenes were useless

No one got revived. The Fullbringers went to Soul Society after their death like every human does. Grimmjow's been alive ever since Ichigo saved him from Nnoitora

AWESOME chill episode!!! Love it!! Finally we saw the 0 division, I laughed so much because I thought they were dead serious but they came dancing and singing lol. Also, GRIMMJOW OMG, he make my jaw drop. Last but not least, the revelation about the Shiba Clan with Isshin being their uncle and THE FULLBRINGERS Tsukishima, Ginjo and Giriko now on the Soul Society and in the academy of Kukaku. Saw a lot of complaints for Rukia ass not getting animated, keep getting mad Bleach haters, Tite Kubo Troll is back, no fan service should pass!!

I honestly wasn't quite sure which direction this episode would take, especially with the Soul Society being an absolute mess right now. I'm glad Rukia and Renji are both no longer in critical condition. It might seem trivial but I think it was important that Hirako encouraged Ichigo by reminding him that Yhwach had been forced to leave thanks to his intervention. Rukia immediately noticing Ichigo's sorrowful expression, which just shows their special bond and how well she knows him.

First of all, thank god Byakuya and Zaraki both survived, even so it's unsure if they'll ever regain consciousness. To some extend I can fully understand Soi Fong's reaction. With Yamamoto leaving such a big gap behind and the current state of the Soul Society, everyone is shaken up. But as hard as the situation is right now, she definitely has to keep a cool head. Gladly Kyōraku was able to calm everyone down and remind them that the Gotei 13's purpose is to protect Soul Society.

How did we get from Ichigo hearing, that his Bankai can't be restored to Kon running around hysterically just a couple seconds later? Typical Bleach humor :D

I'm already in love with the squad 0 members. Not only since those 5 are stronger as the whole Gotei 13, which is already crazy enough, but because everyone of them seems to be very unique. Wasn't really hard to notice that Unohana has a very special relationship with Kirinji, who's btw my fav member of the squad 0 so far. We got a little taste of what one member of Squad 0 is capable of when Soi Fong started arguing once again and was then put in her place by Kirinji, who in turn received a hard punch from Ichibei. I was surprised when Shutara appeared with Rukia, Renji, Byakuya, and the broken sword of Tensa Zangetsu, whom she reveals will be taken back as well for healing. When Urahara interrupted the conversation to report that Inoue and Chad were fine, just to hear Grimmjow a secpmd later in the background, I had such a huge grin on my face. Now we know who killed Quilge with such an ease. I wonder what kind of agreement Urahara made with him lol. Since Tensa Zangetsu can't be fixed, I'm already interested to see what the reforged version of it will look like.

What a funny moment when the whole squad 0 + Ichigo, Rukia, Renji and Byakuya got send flying by Kukaku's cannon right to the royal palace. Did Kukaku seriously call Ichigo's dad, uncle? Did I really just see Ginjo, Tsukishima and Giriko going to train with Ganju? I'm honestly speechless over the amount of characters we've seem from the old season.

The royal is quite impressive, ngl. The hot spring scene with Ichigo and Kirinji reminded me how much I missed the Bleach humor. Kirinji casually throwing Byakuya into the Blood Pond Hell, even if it's for healing purpose, made me die laughing.

This was very welcomed more relaxed and funny contrast compared to all the 7 episodes before which I'm very glad for. I honestly can't wait to learn more about squad 0 and the soul king. Looking forward to next week.

The mood shift in this episode stunned me tbh. I guess it’s a breather in a way from the gloomy tone we’ve had this arc. Soi Fon being angry was understandable as she was grieving but girlie could’ve toned down the screaming. Glad the older captains humbled her as she is still young compared to them. I thought the comedy part would be dry but Squad Zero’s entrance and Byakuya being thrown made me laugh. The foreshadowing with Unohana though, can’t say I’m ready yet since she’s one of my faves but I’m sure it’s gonna be mad epic. It was nice to see Kon and our boi Grimmjow back! Can’t wait for next week.

I actually agree tbh. Teasing his comeback by only showing part of his body and giving him a couple lines of dialogue felt so needless to me in the manga. I was hoping the anime would change that and just get his full comeback out of the way earlier, but alas. Same with the Fullbringers. I mean we know it's them, but giving them an obscure cameo felt like such a pointless tease.

Okay episode... Nothing really to talk about with animation or storyboard. Cut comedy is fine. Byakuya not dying will forever be Kubo's biggest fumble. Squad 0 are cool enough. 6/10

the reason why byakuya didn't die is cause of the fans.
Kubo wanted to kill him but the fanbase sent h death letters so he changed it.
These claims have never been proven for years. It's just something the community made up.
