Much better than the previous half of the fight. Pernida looked way better and Nemu's death was pretty sad and even more brutal than in the manga. She's the closest someone like Mayuri will be to actually care for someone, and only as a scientific project lol. Szayelaporro's part was also nice, that guy always made me uncomfortable and they def nailed his vibes in his short appearence.

The post credits were a big WTF moment tho. So Giselle zombified Meninas and Candice and the Soldats fighting them have Almighty? Gonna need a proper explanation for that since that wasn't in the manga. This anime never fails to surprise me.

Until the moment Nemu went pop my thoughts during the episode were that it was a little too late in the series for Kubo to make me care about her and Mayuri' relationship. Then it happened and it, plus Szayelaporro appearing, suddenly made me 10x more invested.

Hands down the best episode of s3.
I seriously didn't expect they can execute an episode better than earlier episodes but yet again this adaptation exceed my expectation once more.
The quality of s3 really outshines s2 by quite a large margin.
Blows Jujutsu s2 out of the water for me (Jujutsu s2 is vastly overrated tbh, especially the flashback part)

It's kinda sad English regions are sleeping on Thousand Years War compare to other big hit of 2023/2024 . (Like Dandadan/ Oshi no Ko/ JJK S2)
I mean even PNG Lock s2 with absolutely garbage production is more popular than Thousand Year War. Pathetic really.

It's a great ep. It was shocking to see any distorted emotions on Mayuri's face. Sad to see Nemu go. Let's wish the ingenious scientist would do something to bring her back into the physical body, especially since he has her brain.

Masterpiece of an episode. 10/10. This is my favorite episode, with episode 9 coming in second, and episode 7 coming in 3rd. They did a great job adapting this.

This part always gave me conflicting feelings, in one way I feel like it sucks to have Nemu go out this way so abruptly and brushed off so quickly, but Mayuri does act somewhat human at least for a moment about it until he goes back to his usual self again, which show even he can have fatherly feelings about his creations if he spends enough time with them.
So a good episode that leaves somewhat of a bitter taste in the mouth, but I guess that's just Mayuri as a character which is what makes him one of the most interesting in the series.

@SamBlack Miyaru is not that sad because he still has Namu's brain, so I'm sure he can make a new body for Namu while retaining her past memory.

Fantastic episode. RIP Nemu No.7 / Nemu Nanago you will be missed! BUT THIS MEANS MAYURI WILL CREATE A EVEN BETTER NEMU NO.8 WHICH WILL SURPASS NEMU NO.7!!!!

Also Szayelapooro that mf really came back in Mayuri's imagination to mock him lol. That mf just can't stay dead. I hope in the arc that shall not be named Mayuri messes with Szayelapooro again somehow.

Finally now I'm going to listen to Mayuri and Nemu Nanago's VA bleach cover

This is just so deep, coupled that with the execution and fight that went beyond. Precisely why Bleach is part of the big 4 and once again, to reiterate why adults like myself are still watching anime. Feels so good after watching this!

Nobody knows who I really am
I never felt this empty before
And if I ever need someone to come along
Who's gonna comfort me, and keep me strong

We are all rowing the boat of fate
The waves keep on comin' and we can't escape
But if we ever get lost on your way
The waves would guide you thru another day

Touku de iki o shiteru toumei ni natta mitai
Kurayami ni omoe dakedo mekaku shisarete tadake

Inori o sasagete atarashii hi wo matsu
Azayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

Nobody knows who I really am
Maybe they just don't give a damn
But if I ever need someone to come along
I know you would follow me, and keep me strong

Hito no kokoro wa utsuri yuku nukedashita kunaru
Tsuki wa mada atarashii shūki de mune o tsureteku

And every time I see your face,
the oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
and soon I can see the shore

I want you to know who I really am
I never though I'd feel this way towards you
And if you ever need someone to come along
I will follow you, and keep you strong

Tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku odayakana hi mo
Tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki de fune o terashidasu

Inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu
Asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

And every time I see your face,
the oceans heave up to my heart
You make me wanna strain at the oars,
and soon I can see the shore

Unmei no fune o kogi nami wa tsugi kara tsuki e to watashi-tachi o sou kedo
Sore mo suteki na tabi ne, dore mo suteki na tabi ne

Now I have a newfound respect for Mayuri. And great episode btw.

We got to see Nemu's past and we learned that she was Mayuri's greatest creation up-to-date (for the anime). Nemu has evolved to a point where she takes the initiative to decide things on her own instead of waiting for orders. A good character development for her.

I think my favorite part of this episode was when Mayuri had a mini mental breakdown over Nemu's death and was berated and reminded by Szayelaporro that perfection is BS, while a song (I guess will be released on the Bleach the Blood Warfare OST 2) was playing in the background that set the mood for Mayuri's reflection. Then, Mayuri claimed he has finally surpassed Urahara Kisuke for his work on creating Nemu. Let the man bask in glory!

Huh, so during the after-credits, Meninas and Candice got zombified and were brought along with Bambietta to Wahrwelt. Then the Bambies were fighting many Soldat that were infused(?) with the Soul King's powers or maybe those were clones made by Yhwach. I guess Pierrot is planning to extend that fight.

Ok, so next episode is the conclusion of the battle between Kyouraku and Lille. Can't wait to see Nanao playing out her role and a certain dead man's appearance.

This episode was always one of my favorite moments during the this last stretch of the war from the manga. Mayuri carried so hard, saving Captains and getting them back on battlefield, but the best part was through his cold facade he truly cared about Nemu. To him in a weird Mayuri-ish Proud Daddy moment he felt he's above Kisuke Urahara because of how Nemu turned out. Just funny that his energy before going to sleep was basically "Take that Urahara!", lol. That man was living rent free in his head.

Best episode of Cour 3 so far, even better than Shunsui's bankai from last week and also surpassing all the other top tier fights in this cour (Uryu vs Renji, Ichigo vs Uryu, Ichigo vs Yuha)

Amazing OST, fantastic animation with 0 bad frames/shots, peak direction and storyboarding and we got Nemu's cake on full display (God of Thunder fans on full hopium right now).

Next episode is one of the most controversial manga moment in the series, let's see how anime-only fans take it and if Kubo improves it by adding anime original scenes

The biggest creation of Mayuri is now gone. I did not expect for that big hand to be a Quincy, but Mayuri planned everything in advance.

Cool episode it was, I liked how Nelu was created and gives all the great powers by Mayuri. Now he and Zaraki can rest in peace for now.

I think he is really abusive.I'm just an asshole to Nemu the entirety of bleach. Easily the worst episode of bleach for me because I don't like the character. I also don't understand I hope people like him.

Nemu's spotlight was given so much care, her sacrifice for Mayuri made me emotional again after all these years. No. 7, we'll never forget you...

On another note, Pernida's CGI looked much better this episode in my opinion. Also, it's nice to see Szayel is creepy as ever. 9/10 overall.

Damn how good the episode was. I swear, i've always loved Mayuri, but damn how badass and cool he was in the episode, and previous one as well. Outstanding performance on Mayuri's end, and such a marvelous fight. Loved Toshiro's return as well, since he has always been one of my favorites as well. So excited to see what he's gonna do in this arc.

It feels kinda weird tbh, I mean they could’ve simply decided to have this episode as the “previous” episode and the previous episode as the “current” one, because you know, the continuity in anything feels better. Not really an issue though, just that it feels odd, because at the end of the day they wanted to adapt this part. Anyway, it’s been long overdue when it comes to getting to know anything at all about Nemu. She’s been here since the start, but yeah, all we know is that she’s an experimental subject of Mayuri(which is all she’s about too xD), though hey, Mayuri calling someone creepy…

… it’s, you know, pot calling the kettle black lmaoooo. Though still, lil Nemu was… pretty similar to the current Nemu, just that she was short. Liked the small bit she was on screen, but yeah, to think the current one literally committed suicide to kill that quincy… quite graphically at that, sheesh. Makes sense they had that insert song for her. Really something this particular part was, and yeah, they made sure it would weird people out, and it did as well. Mayuri deserves that rest xD

Great to see Toushirou and Matsumoto back as well.
@Softhenic03 I think it's a way to express that those fights happened at the same time (altho it may be also the order they showed those episodes in the manga)
