| Bleach is back again after 6 months, which means hype is back and which also does mean Yhwach and his baddies are back too, and so Ichigo and his training in soul palace. Though hey I mean he’s already almost over with his course, but that still doesn’t really guarantee he could score a win over Yhwach. Leaving the insecurities for a moment, and continuing with the cliffhanger they left us with last time… Uryuu has joined the sternritters and heck he’s even named as the successor of Yhwach at the same time. As much as it sounds surprising, it’s actually true. Though needless to say, people have a problem with this. Can’t blame them too honestly, I mean Uryuu came out of nowhere and has already taken the most important title of all. Bazz-B, I get you but if you had that much worth Yhwach would’ve done the same to you as well, though the reality is you don’t. Anyways the bottom line being, Uryuu has switched sides, atleast for the time being. A bit of focus over other characters as well, I mean Byakua has RECOVERED and is well and alive… so there’s that, however wrong it feels like lol. Also, I kind of forgot that Ichigo’s classmates are already acquainted with the people of Soul society for some time. Still Kyoraku coming all the way and giving them soul tickets, a kind of good gesture from him. Breathing time is over, as Yhwach and his army have already arrived for the SECOND invasion. It’ll be again bloodshed from here on. Opening and Ending are fine, I mean just fine for the music part. Though it’s the visuals of the opening which took the cake. Anyways, off to a great start already. |

| Jujutsu Kaisen? Zom 100? Throw that into the trash cause Bleach is back baby! And Pierrot's going two for two right now with it Ketsubetsu-tan part of the arc! This episode starts with a manga extended cut of Yhwach flashback and shows us the birth of Yhwach and his progression from a soul to a body with his eyes opening as we see everyone's favorite Uryu! I seriously hate this dude the amount of times he's backstabbed Ichigo is crazy but I digress. I love the dedication they're putting into this long awaited project by adding extra scenes! After last season climatic end with the Seireitei destroyed and our boy Ichigo accepted that "The Blade is Him" Ichigo prepares to leave the Royal Palace to return to the Seireitei but is stopped by Hyosube, who claims that Ichigo cannot defeat Yhwach at his current power and is brought to the sacred place for training. With yet again another anime exclusive training scenes with Ichibe and Ichigo! I would fanboy and ramble a lot more like how we got to see a familiar face training with Chad shhhhh, and the fact this OP slaps and has the old Bleach feel to it, but we'd be here all day. Once again the animation continues to be stellar and beautiful and the soundtrack just elevates it along with it still managing to be amazing. I love the fact that you can definitely see that this is Pierrot's passion project and that the staff is putting their heart and soul into it, and along with that the VA's saying that there will be a lot of anime exclusive scenes which is definitely needed since this is where the Sennen Kessen-hen arc gets a bit mediocre. In conclusion, Bleach is off to an impressive start and episode One showcases the strengths of the franchise, from its captivating storyline and well-developed characters to its top-notch animation. It has successfully reignited the excitement, anticipation and nostalgia among me. |

| Bleach is fucking BACK baby!! TYBW part is underway, with a more calm episode that's kind of getting us back into the swing of things and catching us up to speed on how things have progressed since the last part aired. Ichigo is about to train, Uryu is working with the other side, Byakuya is healed and still alive, definitely a "calm before the storm" vibe. That didn't last very long though lol, the end of the episode was quite ominous and things are going to intensify quickly next episode. We're in for more great content from Bleach these next few months. Loved the visuals for the OP, but idk how I feel about the actual song yet. ED is fine too for the most part. Mod Edit: Removed quote of deleted post. |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. MAL is literally just anime Twitter as its own website lol. |
| DAAAAAAMN Bambietta's tits are huge. Great ep |
| Bleach is back after the break. Hyped to see Ichigo kick ass. Build up episode for the premiere. Ichigo gonna surpass soul reapers but at what cost? I really hope he can go back to the living world. Ishida's intentions are still a mystery and that ending scene, damn shit about to get real. |

| Pretty good start imo. Bleach is back. I'm hyped AF for the stuff to come in this arc. The art and animation are still very good. Looking forward to more. The OP and ED are also quite good. |

Most people who already watched it here are probably living in Japan. Baby anime gods, im just kidding, need to wait for my kid to get up before I can stream it. Take a chill pill you |

| From this given context, Yhwach appoints Uryu as his successor because he is alive during the Auswahlen and now, he is probably avenging his mother that's worth his own risk to be here. Ichigo is about to train to see his qualification of becoming a soul reaper. Rukia and Renji on a more training route. Also I'm ngl they made Keigo look hotter in the new artstyle, and Kyoraku offered Keigo and Ichigo's other classmates for a ticket to see Ichigo, hopefully it's not in the worst case scenario... So many directions, we'll see how it'll settle down into one. |
 look at her!!!!!!!! |

| Bleach is back! Apologies to the one I shouldn't of quoted but posting is out of control, shit is hitting the fan and no one is dealing with the shit.

I just can't remember when that happened, so if you know shoot me the chapter number please and thanks! Also, since people seem to be confused, idk why it didn't show up on Disney, but it was available on Hulu at the correct time it was supposed to be so you should be able to watch it ther CQLLIST said: From this given context, Yhwach appoints Uryu as his successor because he is alive during the Auswahlen and now, he is probably avenging his mother that's worth his own risk to be here.

| AOTY is back, and it returns with the aptly named premiere "The Last 9 Days" sharing the same title as Volume 61. There are so many perfect shots in this anime. I'm in love with BLEACH's aesthetic; the character models, background art and coloration are absolutely gorgeous. The dynamic lighting makes for so many beautiful, emotionally elevated scenes. And it seems the anime was even more explicit than the manga here considering Bambietta's little scene, lol. State-of-the-art direction by Taguchi. Anime-original/extended scenes have been highlighted by Kubo and the staff along with the trailers themeselves for this cour onwards, which we got to see here in the premiere, so that makes me very hopeful as the latter half of TYBW wasn't the narrative masterpiece of the first. I'm especially looking forward to the incorporation of Can't Fear Your Own World's lore and worldbuilding (in particular regarding the Soul King) into this final arc where a lot of it belongs. It's a shame Crunchyroll couldn't acquire the license to stream this, especially considering how successful the first cour was. It isn't as accessible as it should be.

| The animation is just as amazing as the previous season. Uryu being chosen as the successor of Yhwach and the attack of Quincy upon Soul Society has already begun. This first episode really was fast paced, just can't wait to see the action in next episode. Maybe someone from the zero squad would come. The opening and ending themes were just too good. And If someone knows please tell that how do all of Ichigo's freinds from the world of living know about Soul Society ? |
| Bleach never fails in drip and style, that opening was fucking glorious, Yhwach as a Mafia Leader taking Uryuu was fucking flawless. (Heavy spoilers and foreshadowing too) Bleach is back baby, and better than never. |

| weak OP and ED but they have great visuals though this episode is like a calm before the storm |
