Aizen-sama is so cool!
No he ain't
You guys are all incredibly angry. It'll all be okay. All you need to do is look at Orihime, post Orihime, and you'll find yourself in a much better mental state.

I have a question: if Miracle Man and Bird Man were gonna get absorbed and side-lined by Yhwach anyway, why didn't they just get defeated earlier in the fight instead of showing us new forms that never did anything?

>Tatsuki and Yammy's Dog appearing in 2026What times we live in.
>>290903702No, actually, the problem is that too many people care about Orihime right now (if you can believe it). There are a lot of angry foreigners who never actually read Bleach in 2016 that are endlessly seething that>Orihimeof all people, slurped up the budget and is the sole reason why everything is "bad".
>>290903670Lmao, you really swallowed every false promise they fed you and now you’re acting like basic criticism is “armchair hindsight.”Nobody said characters have to make perfect split-second decisions. The criticism is that the writing keeps manufacturing obvious problems, then expects the audience to pretend they were unavoidable because “people hesitate in real life.” That excuse only works so many times before it becomes a crutch."if they simply did X this could’ve been avoided"Yeah, sometimes that’s literally the point of criticizing bad writing. If the story only works because everyone suddenly loses common sense whenever the plot needs them to, that isn’t realism, it’s contrivance.The funniest part is you’ll defend every questionable choice with “trust the process,” then when the payoff sucks you invent another excuse for why it was secretly intentional. At some point maybe the promises just didn’t deliver.
Where was it?
>>290903638If Kubo still has balls we will see Starrk joining the fight in Hueco Mundo

>>290903747Anon, I am incredibly happy with the current state of things. Orihime is loved by so many more people! Everyone is talking about her hair, her selfless sacrifice, and just how perfect she is. This is the absolute perfect state of things! The only thing that could get better is if they animate the Ichigo confession!
>>290903731It was censored but he did say nigger when Ywach sucker punched him.
>>290903763I would agree if tybw isn't getting the staff and pierrot death threats. This actually could destroy Orihime in the long run than the other way around.
>>290903763she rejected the budget going to aizen...

Kinda knew already but it is sad to confirm, given the reaction to the episode, how overwhelmingly brown the Bleach fandom is
Someone in the previous thread asked why the plot arrow even worked in the manga. If they don't still have the previous thread open in a tab, here's the explanation from the last thread: >>290903808 The gist is that whenever Bach uses the Auswahlen, what that actually does is manifest the "Still Silver" in Quincy's hearts and the metal kills them and takes away their powers. Shooting Bach in the heart with the metal takes away his own powers, but only for a limited time, and thus he was weak enough that Ichigo (or perhaps anyone) could kill him.
>>290904002We already knew this based on the Orihime shills
I wish I grew up with Naruto but I thought it looked bad due to the art style as a kid. Now Naruto is praised and Bleach is the joke.
>>290904020>garbage receiving the garbage adaptation it deserves... is le bad!
>>290904042>Bleach is the joke.>Now
>>290904042>Now Naruto is praisedLoLLmao even
>>290904096Nah he's right. Naruto and OP blew up among casuals. Bleach is going the opposite direction despite airing.
>>290904042Naruto is gay. It's real easy to fall for all the jutsus/eye shit and think that it's some badass series, but he will always be a total fag that kissed Sasuke. Bleach was never as gay as Nart
Naruto can't even release 4 fucking episodes despite announcing them years ago. when will you retards stop console war fagging and realize we must burn Pierrot to the ground?
>>290904042>Now Naruto is praised and Bleach is the joke.Only part 1 was praised anon.
>>290904116Sorry but Naruto still blew up despite being off air for years. >>290904128Pierrot is bad but I rather it get delayed years then go the tybw rushed route.
>>290904139Naruto Shippuden became more popular than part 1.
Alright finally watched the episode. Other than the Yuha v Aizen fight playing out 1:1 as the manga with subpar animation and a bad storyboard, it was alright. The final fight is going to be a whole avengers assemble against Yuha in 3 different rhealms it seems. Pretty ambitious I would say. If they manage to make 49 and 50 on the level of 44 and 45 with Aizen doing more( looks obvious based on how he was absorbed) only then I am willing to look over the fight in this episode. 6/10. The additions we all good though.
Thread is so shit but the himeidiot is having a melty so at least there's that
https://x.com/SugoiLITE/status/2098805759077486950 wtf is happening at pierrot. Do they hate bleach this badly
>>290902627Update. Unohana said that she misdiagnosed me the first time and that I didn’t actually have cancer. Now she needs to conduct more exams. I still can’t walk btw. I thought she was a good doctor. Why is she doing this to me
>>290904107>Naruto and OP blew up among normalfags and third worlders>Bleach is going the opposite direction despite airingGood
>>290904152Popularity doesn't define the quality of a work.It is a gay series for gay, homosexual fujo chuunis. If you like Naruto? You aren't straight.
>>290904175The problem is, how will the characters in the other two realms even last against Bach? Maybe the hollows can stall with some degree of plot armor, but the human world has what might as well be a bunch of bums there.
>>290904198Naruto is still massive in Japan. It's bleach who failed on all fronts. >>290904199True but bleach is a bomb and it's not popular so it's a lose situation for bleach regardless.
>the fucking cat sol used more aizen in a single season than bleach over two seasons What a weird timeline
>>290903741He will return for the Hell arc
>>290904002Anon, the entire internet has changed. The threads that existed in 2014-2016 do not exist anymore. That's okay, we can all still love Bleach and Orihime.
>>290904225I see Ishinn and Ryuuken fighting Yuha in the real world. If anything it's HM squadron that needs more big names.
>>290904173Most people seem to think it peaked at Pain, stopped being good after the Pain arc, or that the arc itself was when it all started to jump the shark and they stopped liking the series before it.
>>290904230>TrueAt least you admit you are a faggot
>>290903717>>290903799He was rushed
>>290904251B-But Orishartmejeet thinks everyone loves Orishartme!!
>Absolute nobodies fighting hollows with added Tatsuki scenes>More scenes of the arrancar group including Yammy's fucking dog>New scenes of Yhwach appearing fucking everywhere>They kept the shit with Kommamura and IbaAnd yet they couldn't spare time nor budget for more Aizen sakuga.I'm not all that upset, it's faithful to manga and I wasn't expecting Aizen to do shit anyway, but it's a bit disappointing.>Also no Bambies either.Now we have to wait like 5 weeks for the next episode.We're never getting off Kubo's wild ride.
>>290904242Rushing and killing the "main" Bach in the Soul Society would probably be the most effective, though, since that's where Ishida and the arrow are. If Bach is trying to be omnipresent instead of splitting into three, killing him in even one world would potentially kill him in all of the worlds.
What studio would you have liked to pick up TYBW and how do you think they'd have handled it better than Pierrot? Honest, good faith answers only, please.
why didn't they just analyze the reiryoku of the zanpakutou?
>>290904289Ufotable.
>>290904247I recall stopping at Pain arc but don't exactly remember why. I tried reading the stuff afterwards but I just couldn't get into it.Right now I can't imagine watching or reading Naruto. It was a product of it's time, when I was a kid
If Pierrot manage to deliver on the final battle with completely new content as teased here especially with that huge scale of parallel battles in HM, SS and the human world, I better see all the Narutards shitting in this thread post videos of eating their shit. And I am not just talking about solid shit.
>>290904289Bones or Mappa.
>>290904247That didn't translate into real life. Even the Naruto manga sales were more consistent. Naruto is liked from start to finish for casuals.
>tessair tp>time freezewhat did he even mean?
>>290904327>Mappa.3D models with rotorscoped battles.
The Yuha vs Aizen fight had subpar animation but anyone calling this OPM S3, none of you retards have actually watched that shit.
>>290904270Rent free
I rewatched the episode in good quality and it's good. They draw Orihime beautifully, and this is already 8/10. The person who draws Orihime does it with love and deserves respect.
>>290904310Ufotable would have been perfect for Bleach.
>>290904311It felt like a natrual conclusion to the story with the death of his sensei and releasing the Kyuubi. Everything after it was just weird snow space alien shit and the DBZ lite Saiyan rip off TCM cloak form
>>290904349lol
>>290904338I think the esl is talking about when Tessai used forbidden kido to manipulate time/space when he teleported a bunch of characters about during the turn back the pendulum arc.
>>290904192I told you Hanataro. Get away from ther
> literally making shitty edits of 2ch to push his narrative Totally mindbroken
>>290904042>praisedThis revisionism needs to stop. Of the big three, it was Bleach that /a/ was enamored by the most. Naruto was literally mocked and derided on here for decades until 2012 hence that copypasta and the "ban".Bleach has banners on /a/ and everyone was so tsundere over Kubo he was affectionately called the troll king for a reason. Fuck, /a/ literally predicted Starrk's abiltiy, that is how much we were invested in Bleach.
>ufotable>mappa
>>290904273We have no idea on how they are going to pace the final fight. Based on the 2 almost new episodes so far (45 and 47) I would say the pacing will be good.
>>290904387>This revisionism needs to stop.Naruto is liked more casually so none of this matters. No amount of 4chan likes can stop casuals and the japanese from liking the show.
>>290904377I can’t leave. My legs are disabled and I’m stuck in bed for “my safety”
>>290904380They're not wrong. It matches how much bleach has been flopping and the c4 fiasco. Japan clearly doesn't care too much about tybw. Bleach is only good in japan for the art but the writing is terrible.
>>290904273If Bach is trying to be omnipresent instead of splitting into three, killing him in even one world would potentially kill him in all of the worlds.He is getting killed in the world with Uryu and Ichigo. The other two would be fanservice for the characters involved. I hope we see Ishinn and Ryuuken doing more.
>>290904387Oh the Orihimeschizo admitting Bleach was superior in the 2000s?
what is this angry dog gonna do again yhwach lmaooooo is he gonna bark at him or something hahahahahahahaha
>>290904420>caring about what casuals think
>>290903527Whats with all the anons saying Uryu also has the silver in his heart?!Uryu is immune to Auschwalen for reasons unknown(most likely his inherent antithesis ability), so we can assume that he doesnt have the silver in his heart.Also PLOT HOLE since eventually Yhwach used Ashwalen on even his top 3 quincy fighters(Jugram, Gerard, Lille) and that means Uryus father who is also a pure quincy should have died.WE already know the Auschwalen hits the quincy wherever they may be
>>290904455so silly
>>290904380It's not a narrative when cour 4 got cancelled with bad budgeting.
>>290903604He was stripped of his quincy/hollow powers, when he kills Yhwach his sword breaks into the classic simple black sword symbolizing how he only has his father's shinigami powers now. At least that's what happens in the manga. I wonder what Kubo will do since he already added that new scene of ichigo in his inner world while the sword was broken.
>Aizen seemingly eaten by YhwachImagine if he meets and merges with Za Hando.
>>290904434>t. Daiparino Even a retarded shizo can spot the similarity in your posts.
>>290904450Not an Orihimefag, just someone setting the record straight.
>>290904457Casuals are just people but not chronically online.
Welcome back Himebro
honestly disappointedwhat was the point of ALL THAT buildup just to go the asspull arrow route againseems like they ran out of budget too.
>muh "popularity" argumentsLord of the Rings wasn't very popular either before they got adapted into movies and spread to a much wider audience. That doesn't mean people didn't want to read and be fans of those books just because they weren't "popular" enough for them to like it.
>>290904042Said no one ever. Naruto is the worse of the big three, dogshit garbage ending that destroyed two decades of story so they could set up Boruto with the retarded aliens lmaooooooooooooooo
>>290904466Try harder Jeremy.
>>290904455someone should give him a dog treat and take him for a walk
I'm just glad the characters are back in open daylight again, tired of the endless red and black skies.
I think this is the first time I've seen an anime delay it's finale for so long. And the fact that it will still be weekly after it returns despite the fact that only 2 eps remain, might as well air them all together like AOT did, this smells like shit is burning at that studio.
>>290904406Dude, I meant rushing as in blitzing someone, not as in rushing a cour.
Wait, is everyone the Orihimeschizo now?
>>290904499As opposed to Shart Piss which is destroying its story well before the final arc.
>>290904499kek >>290904490It was so bad pierrot forced the staff to make comments and pr for them.
>>290904458>Whats with all the anons saying Uryu also has the silver in his heart?!He was affected by the Auswählen toi the point of dying, but managed to survive for an unknown reason (Kanae was involved, but it's still unclear how). That is why he's called "The Only Quincy to Survive the Auswählen"Therefore he has a clot of Silver of Stillnees in his heart. It was shown several times (picrelated).He also uses it as his Völlstandig catalysit, hence no Heiligenschein (though it may be not becuase of it's nature, but because it's in his heart)
>>290904455BARK-KAI
>Aizen absorbs the pieces of the soul king form inside Yhwach>helps them defeat Yhwach >Aizen is sealed again and forced to become the new soulkinghow much would (You) cum if that happened?
>>290904458>>290904525no one cares
Such a weird place to drop the ball.I haven't been following production, did they run out of cash?
>>290904514Yeah this is the problem for me, not the delay but the fact that the final 2 episodes won't air together, this means the actual final episode isn't even finished yet which is really stupid
>>290904522It's gone on so long that Oda is probably going senile. I can't really even fault it. How can you even keep a story engaging and coherent for 1000+ chapters? It's an impossible feat.
>>290904514Episodes getting delayed isn't something new. It has happened before. 86 had half of cour 2 delayed by months. It all depends on whether the delayed episodes deliver or not.
>>290904525thanks i must have glossed over that detail during the earlier episodes.Still doesnt explain hsi dad thoughFrom what we are told is that Yhwach has a connection to ALL Quincy, so he can sense and know where they are which is how he found Jugram
>>290904543You care enough to give me a (You), troglodite.
>>290904458>>290904525I care
Um, we are waiting 5 weeks for a single 30 minute long episode, right?
>>290904543Yet here you are in the thread
>>290904569We don't know the length of the remaining episodes but it is very much possible for them to be longer like 45.
>>290904542I would cum exactly 1ml
>>290904525For all we know, the silver was removed from his heart and his power is from something else. What's more, why would silver that kills Quincy be able to give him a powered-up form?
>>290904559>>Still doesnt explain hsi dad thoughIt doesn't, i explains only Uryuu.There is nothing i nthe story that can explain why Ryuuken is unaffected by the Auswählen. The only possible hint is his mother's wound, ehich may imply that he's also a Fullbringer. But there barely any evidence for that.
>>290904561>>290904562>>290904573>>290904583>>290904588no one cares
>>290904525That may be true, but it doesn't explain his Mimihagi connection
>>290904499I feel bad for Narutards cause they eat all that shit up with all their stupid green war vests/Akatsuki sharingan shit and actually delude themselves into thinking it is this amazing adventure story when in reality it is all basically just edgelord emo crap.Bleach is dark/edgy too but Naruto is just flat-out cringy about it.
Once the complaining stops and the long wait begins these threads will just be diaper's toxic waste grounds
>>290904588>why would silver that kills Quincy be able to give him a powered-up form?Perhaps, All all Völlstandig catalysits are made of Still Silver, or a material of similar properties.
>>290904455Don't make fun of Komamura! He's trying his beast to please his dead master
>>290904542If this happens (just like for the bankai rumors) I will transition and download discord.
>>290904529kek
>>290904604>diaper's toxic waste groundsDoor to /csm/ is on the left
>>290904602naruto feels very juvenile looking back. it was the shit though when I was like 11 or 12with bleach I can still read or watch without constantly cringing
>>290904600Stillness in "Silver of Stillness" written the same way the domain of Mimihagi is written (静止).
>>290904455which bleach girl would fuck him?
>>290904609Wouldn't that mean they all already had the lethal metal in them though? "Similar properties" wouldn't really work if the only noteworthy property is something that kills the heck out of Quincy.
>>290904602Oh well atleast Naruto outclasses in popularity. Bleach failed at both.
>>290904639But that applies to all Quincies who had the Silver in them.What makes Uryu special to the point of Mimihagi marking appearing on him?
>>290904485Thanks, anon. Orihime was very cute this episode, I'm glad that she gave everything she could to heal the sword (handled much better than the anime).
wtf are we suppose to do for 5 weeks?
>>290904658Discuss Bleach, Discuss Orihime, or discuss what do you think they'll add (if anything) in the month break.
>>290904642
>>290904642THE DOG?
>>290904633Bleach just feels more refined, like a fine art. Yeah stuff like the hollow mask is pretty teen-y and edgelord tier, but things like the overall way they portray their villains just comes off more classy
I SPEAK ON BEHALF OF ALL FELLOW YAMAMOTO FANS.WE ARE SISSIES. OUR CLITTIES ARE CAGED BY ALL OF /BLEACH/. BASE TENJIRO DEFEATS BANKAI YAMAMOTO WITH HIS BATH WATER.IT'S OVER.
>>290904642Bambi
>>290903527Aizen is gonna fight Yhwach from inside the SK goop using the Hogyoku and stat debuff Yhwach for all the squads to actually stand a chance. It'll pay off the "it would take too long to kill you/immobilize you because you fused with the Hogyoku" line from S1E6/cope
>>290904633>naruto feels very juvenilei agree but i dont think that's necessarily a knock on it though, honestly. it's aimed at that teen-preteen demographic and its emotions & themes are tailored to it. iirc kishimoto openly talks about how he basically mashed blade of the immortal together with dragon ball
So I understand Book of the End being able to alter the past of someone by inserting Tsukishima but how does that make it such that Tensa Zangetsu was never broken? Does that mean that Tsukishima technically was there in the fight and thus was able to stop Yhwach from breaking it somehow?
>>290904642>>290904695Soifon would totally do it thinking it would bring her closer to Yoruichi who can turn into a cat.
>>290904710Based on how Aizen was absorbed and the final fight being completely new except for the arrow, this is actually a possibility.
>>290904724>Does that mean that Tsukishima technically was there in the fight and thus was able to stop Yhwach from breaking it somehow?Yes. It went like this >Yhwach wouldn't it be cooler if you broke zangetsu with brute strength instead of the almighty>you make a great point my most trusted advisor and true successor Tsukishima
>>290904651>Wouldn't that mean they all already had the lethal metal in them though?Most Quincy had Völlstandig catalysts outside of their bodies as accessories (be it Leiden Hant, Msaque's belt buckle or something else) or inside their heads (Gerard, Lille and Äs Nodt) Nobody had it in their hearts. You can't survive it' That's why Uryuu is special.>But that applies to all Quincies who had the Silver in them.What makes Uryu special to the point of Mimihagi marking appearing on him?That despite a piece of Silver in his heart he still lives. Why he lives? Because of Kanae, the exact way will probably be explained nex episode.
>>290904677it's also just more downplayed I guess with the characters. ichigo is not really trying to preach to anybody. he'll say a few things but ultimately his goal is to take out a threat to himself and his friends.you're not going to talk no jutsu a guy like yhwach. you have to get rid of him.
>>290904657I like how she looks so tired to deal with Tsukishima's bullshit, "Fuck, this guy is here too..." kinda stare
>>290904742The second part meant for >>290904655
>>290904455Bambi really likes dogs. So does Momo
a dog's butt hole got more screen time than prime eizen btw
>>290904724>they didn't reshow footage of the fight with him forrest gump'd indropped the ball
Assign the battle squad for all the three worlds Bleachbros, HM and the human world are short on big names.
>>290904724Unironically yesTsukishima must force a change in the past, so whatever he did made it so that Yhwach could not/did not break the sword.BoTE is top 3 bullshit alongside Almighty and Kyoka Suigetsu. The only weakness is that it needs to hit.
>>290904722indeed and it does it's job very well. but the "re read" value diminishes greatly as a result of it, compared to some of its peers that dealt with more mature themes or at least had a more mature vibe
>>290904455nah the scene of him teaming up with the hollow dog to bite yhwach's nads is gonna be peak sakuga just wait
>>290904724It doesn't matter how impossible the past is. How Tsukishima can be Ichigo's real relative? How Tsukishima could train with Byakuya in Soul Society? Literally impossible. The same is true for Tsukishima preventing Yhwach from breaking Tensa Zangetsu.
New Orihime art. >>290904754Yeah, made me laugh a lot. The Japanese fans are noting how he called her >OrihimeSo much cute in such a small interaction.
why is a bot running all the bleach threads
>>290904642Bambi is into Komamura.
>>290904803Anon, what are you even talking about?
>>290904803It's a Yamamoto fan
So glad bleach is got cancelled again.
>>290904832>bleach is got cancelled>is gotSounds about right for the average Bleach fan.
>>290904839Rather, average anti-Bleach fan.
>>290904657You mean better than the manga right? But she is so perfect, I can't wait to see how she'll help in the final fight.
>>290904724Tsukishima has the Almighty but for the past.
Kubo’s comment on his club ~“So, the anime will be taking a one-month break after this! All I can do is wish everyone on the anime production team the best! Take care of your backs and your eyes, everyone, and keep it up~!!The photos are of my cat looking like a potato-shaped silhouette, taken when Misawa came over the other day, and my cat just sticking out a paw to half-heartedly play with Misawa’s toy.I forgot to mention! The Aizen art I drew is fan service too! We’ve gotta have an Aizen illustration at least once, right?”.
https://x.com/imspenser_6/status/2098815791852310874
>>290904846Yeah, that's what I meant oops. She was so much more desperate it was perfect. >I can't wait to see how she'll help in the final fight.Same. Hopefully she heals everyone so they can all join.
>>290904455my interpretation in the manga was the he died? so this mf is just wolf now?
>>290904742If it's inside their heads, that would still probably be affecting their body in a bad way, the heart probably is just the most immediately harmful spot for it to be in other than, say, their brains.>That despite a piece of Silver in his heart he still lives. Why he lives? Because of Kanae, the exact way will probably be explained nex episode.The silver being removed before he could be killed by it might as well be how he survived, dude. You're making a total guess right now.
No wonder all the leakers dipped
Episode 49 better be long as a movie if they expect us to wait 5 fucking weeks for it.
>>290904851if yuhabaja blast has almight for the futureand tsukishima has almighty for the pastwho has almighty for the present?
You people are coping. I actually went and looked at reaction videos. In every one of them people soi over Aizen, and are annoyed by ywach.Kubo fucked it. It's like if Kishimoto brought back Madara in Boruto to have some mook beat the fuck out of him for no reason.
For some reason, I always thought Tsukishima used Book of the End to basically replace Yhwach in Ichigo's past during that moment so technically the bankai was still broken but wasn't broken by Almighty so Orihime could fix it.
>Yhwach will have to be beaten like Solarisk-kino...
>>290904871Gremmy.
Why are they having production issues for 10 fucking episodes? How are you doing worse than a weekly anime?
>>290904871aizen, the hogyoku literally materializes his desires into reality
>>290904890Staff got split with the BC production team. Tominaga is an incompetent faggot.
>>290904890I have no idea. We waited 2 years for these 10 episodes.
>>290904890Maybe they already had the last 2 episodes bug decided the quality wasn't good enough.
>>290904911Doesn't this mean BC will also have production issues?This not even counting how they can't release the 4 Naruto specials they announced years ago
>>290904890I don't know but they should've figured it out before this last episode, literally the most hyped fight in the arc with the most potential for improvement and it's by far the worst executed one
>>290904911Basically this. Pierrot can't handle multiple shows at a time. They were already walking on thin line with Kingdom and Bleach.
Pierrot was a shit studio back thenPierrot is a shit studio now
>>290904937>Pierrot can't handle multiple shows at a time.Then why except it? They were being greedy and it backfired. Now they're abandoning Bleach because their terrible adaption didn't succeed like they wanted it too.
>>290904930This. Everyone loves villain vs villain, and Aizen is THE og "aura farmer".The fuck was Pierrot thinking?
>>290904922They delayed it to add more Aizen scenes
>>290904890pierrot is ultimately a shitty studio when it comes to their production
>>290904890The quality is far better than a weekly anime tbf
Someone should make a complication of all the times yhwach had repeated the same line about how his dick is bigger than everyone else's.Aizen was also gulity of this but he didn't become this intolerable until he became a butterfly.
>>290904942But it's worse now. Pierrot had amazing highs back then but it's crappier with improved technology and time.
>>290904953Adaptation has been fine except for episode 48. Everything depends on how 49 and 50 turn out.
>>290904970No it looks worse. Because the ost and horrible filter is ruining it. Bad storyboarding can also having a damaging effect. I'd say the quality is lower because the whole thing is not memorable whatsoever.
>>290904695i want to be her dog so bad bros
>>290904972Pierrot has always been notorious for being greedy jews that cheap out in their projects and giving free rein to hacks, they ruin so many adaptations back then like Beelzebub.It seems they didn't learn their lesson at all.
>waited years to see this expanded into something worthy of the hype>it turns out to be so poorly executed the original looks like a masterpiece in comparisonThe dragons look like they barely do any damage to the environment in the anime kek they just run around cracks already made in the groundMeanwhile in the manga it looks like he shatters half the SeireiteiPierott better do some major Aizen dick sucking in the last two episodes or I will write this adaptation off just on this alone, fucking retarded
The delay gives Bleach more time to release official Orihime merch. Can't wait!
>>290904983No it hasn't. It's been inconsistent every fucking cour. Just mid to bad as a whole. No iconic fights over the course of 5 years for a seasonal cour. This is terrible.
>>290904736holy kek
>>290905001Aizen won't appear again. I have no more faith in Kubo. This series ended with Mugetsu.
>>290904455What have these two been doing the entire time since Sajin turned full wolf? Looks like nothing. Iba is a bum and stays "we're gonna getcha Yuhabaha ya baterino!" Wtf
>>290905001TYBW failed since cour 3. There are two episodes left. Give up.
I liked that Ichigo screamed for Aizen in concern when Aizen got struck.
>>290905008>No iconic fightsYou lost! Bleach won!
>>290905008>t. Daipa
Fucking christ atleast try to get China to like it. Their support would be massive but they hate Bleach past Mugetsu.
>>290905026No no. STFU and start simping over Fillerhime already.
>>290904864>The silver being removed before he could be killed by it might as well be how he survived, dude.Then what's the thing that still in his heart that shines and gives him True Quincy eyes?
>>290905023>t.Diaperino
Should have pulled this 1 month break after ep 45 but don't make it a big announcement so that some people get tricked into thinking that was the ending for the series.
>>290905026Aizen said it himself, Ichigo has no hate for him. Between that and the fact that Aizen never actually killed anyone... Ichigo knows Aizen isn't really a bad guy.
>>290905001Unironically BBS did it betterhttps://youtu.be/XR7oCAV8j3Q
>>290905032You don't get it. being iconic is a completely different beast from getting attention for one episode and then flatlining. An iconic fight needs proper buildup, stakes, memorable character conflict, and consequences that actually matter afterward. You don't manufacture that by dumping animation into one random episode, farming some clips for a week, and then having the story move on like nothing happened. A temporary spike in attention isn't legacy. If the fight leaves no lasting impact on the characters, story, or audience, then it was a spectacle, not an iconic moment.
>>290904455He'll contribute to killing one of the Yuhahaha clones. Trust. Everyone will.
>>290905060Imagine a one month break after Episode 45. The expectations would have been so incredibly fucking high.
>>290905060definitely would've got more goodwill to go out on a big cliffhanger, though it might've backfired and made people pissed about the almighty inevitably undoing it.
>>290905044>>290905001>>290905020>>290905023Do you ever sleep, diaper?
>>290905064>Ichigo knows Aizen isn't really a bad guy.Let's not go too far.
>literally the most hyped encounter in the entirety of TYBW>could be easy engagement and exposure if they just fucking extended it and did it justice>instead we get quality and >>290905001 to the point it is worse in the mangagenuinely what is wrong with modern anime directors?how do you mess up the most important moments?
>>290904890they saw the fan blowback and will now dedicate an extra 40 minutes to aizen edging his hogyoku till it bankais
>Fillerhime was so fucking good in this episode!>Her cry was on point! >Give us more Fillerhime!>Literally nobody else matters in Bleach other than Fillerhime!
>>290905079Everyone is still talking about Orihime. She's getting the most art out of anyone. She's still ranking high in polls everywhere. She's getting new merch. She's getting new fans. You lost! Bleach won!
>>290905093worse than in the manga*
>IRKek losing his shit
>>290905050Don't use Gigi's husband for this schizophrenia.
>>290905088Why did you (You) meI liked the adaptation until now, fucking up this fight is just unforgivable unless they replace it with something else
>>290905096Very good, my son...Let the Orihime hate flow through you...
>>290905096>can't stop thinking about OrihimeI don't blame you anon, she's just that perfect.
>>290905108I think my favorite aspect of this entire dialogue is>I'm so happy, people are going to start hating Orihime nowThey are just that delusional.
what that "thank you for prepping me for Rukia, Ichigo" whole interaction in the manga too?
>>290905111>Calling out Jeremy Nah Bejita's doing good.
>>290905121>posts Rukia>Uh oh, Orihimebrothersandsisters! We need to stand up against this woman who's not better than our Filler!
>>290905105That doesn't prove what you think it proves. Fanart, merch, and online polls show that Orihime has an active fanbase. A character can get tons of art because artists like drawing her, rank well in fandom heavy polls, and receive merch yet none of that automatically translates into broader commercial success for Bleach as a whole. And "she's getting new fans" is basically impossible to quantify from random posts. Every major character gets new fans when an anime is airing. The actual argument would require showing that her increased exposure caused measurable growth instead of just generating activity inside an already engaged fandom.
>>290905093if you want a serious answer then studio pureshitto/viz probably took some online survey results to know who to dedicate more screen time to and only jap gooners fill that shit outthat's how we got all that uryuhime glaze
Fuck Rukia
>>290905093It just feels like anime producers don't really care anymore. The industry is so overworked and oversaturated each thing is just a job to finish instead of a thing where they actually care about the gravitas of each scenario there putting out.It used to be obligatory that any moment that would have hype was forseen and got a bare level of sakuga.
Gentlemen...Fetch me the Orihime crying superman image.
>>290905153If that was the case then Ichigo would've gotten the most priority. But he didn't. Toshiro didn't either.
>>290905078B-B-B-BUT MUH PURPLE TEXT!!!!!I am seething
>>290904993I completely disagree
are there three yhwas? how?
>>290905152Oh no, Diaper. You are incredibly upset today. It's okay, have a cute Orihime for your troubles.
>>290904855I wanna be her dog
>>290905190>No argument, just calling everyone diaper. Meds.
>>290905195Iggy Pop...
>>290903714>>290903717Same VA :)
>>290904993Brap or something
>>290905190The Father, The Almighty, and The Holy fuck just get to the fight already
episode so underwhelming it got me completely wanting to forget this entire fiasco ever happenedalmost two months is enough to completely forget about the last two episodesfuck you Pierrot and Kubo
>>2909051893 times the fun
I hope the production team is seeing the widespread disappointment with this episode. I really hope they add Aizen scenes because this animation of a one for one manga rendition left a ton to be desired to say the least. He's a GOAT anime villain for God's sake.>#FreeAizen
diapy got his diaper in a knot
>>290905215There are 2 episodes left. It's done already. They regret what they did since c3 failed but wrote the script beforehand too early for c4 and couldn't change it. They realize what went wrong.
I didn't care for the episode.
>>290905207>tfw yuifag all my lifeshe's so skilled I never actually realized until nowinsane range too
>>290905212is it clone power?
>>290905093you can't teach vision or the kind of awareness it takes to really run a project right, to understand its strengths and how to leverage & enhance them, in the kind of highly stratified environment that japanese seniority culture creates. you need pushback and a kind of, idk, collaboration with subordinates that allows people to grow their artistic eye on their own.
>>290905231But Orihime's episode was recent. How could they realize what they needed for her if that was part of the same planning stage?
>>290905244It's the Holy Trinity
Why didn't they go find the bracelet so that Nel could help fight
>>290905265all three with almighty?
I like how Orihime's episode was so good and so beloved that people are STILL talking about it right after Episode 48 was released. She won.
>>290905278why is she back to her normal form?
>>290905290It's cute
>>290905263C4 had been planned since C2 and was already written before C3 even aired. These things are mapped out well in advance. Animation and production quality, though? That’s a completely different beast.They already had a pre-planned interview ready to upload once it aired. Everything is done in advance. It's all PR business.
>One of the GOATs in anime, let alone Bleach, isn't objectively getting his dueOrihimebrothersandsisterschizos, our response?!
>>290903527For me, Bleach TYBW ended at episode 45. I am certain now they won't be able to surpass the quality of episode 45. It was the pinnacle of Bleach. In terms of the anime adaptation, that conclusion was far superior and more satisfying. All my hopes are gone now, only despair remains.
None of these schizos actually knew Diaper or his aura. The real thing was like the stuff of horror movies, you could just feel the filth and dread off of every low quality meme he posted. But the gist I got off talking to him on MAL centuries ago was that he doesn't really care at all for this site, or even /csm/ anymore. Basic sales wars shit just doesn't cut it, Diaper was genuinely creepy
>>290904267He had a chance to right his wrongs with the anime yet nanao's spank paddle, gerard being auswahlened, and the asspull arrows are still all there lmao
>>290905319Bleach ended back during the Aizen arc.
>>290905328>Shut up and post more cutsy wootsy Fillerhime!!!
FUCK AIZEN
>>290905319meh, cour 1 was still better.
Anyone got the translation on the arrow?
>>290905319Bleach ended in soul society and it all downhill from there
>>290905349>Don't talk about other characters, Fillerhimebro! See is our one and only Fillerhime!
>>290905302I just think it's strange that apparently in the same planning process they knew in advance to make Orihime and even Uryu shine but not that Aizen needed that level of effort if not more.
>>290905047The whole point is that we don't know right now. The Soul King's soul might be fused with Ishida's heart. Ishida might have some magical golden particles that were put in his heart to save his life somehow. If the metal is lethal to Quincies, it's not a good idea to say the metal that clearly isn't killing him (but would have been killing him as a kid per the anime) is there as a first resort.
>>290905371Yeah fillerizen bro, you tell them. Wait...
Bleach’s marketing is a complete mess. There’s barely any reason for Ichigo and Rukia to be on the cover for Anan if they’re not the actual focus. If the material is supposed to be centered around Orihime and Uryu, then why not just market Orihime and Uryu? Using Ichigo and Rukia instead just makes the promotion feel disconnected from what they’re actually trying to sell. I don't understand why they're lying so much.
>Todays episode sucked>Orihime posts everywhere>mfw
>>290905290she lost the bracelet for ishida's hairbrained scheme.
>>290905319Tybw peaked at first invasion desuLook at the manga sales if you don't believe me
>>290905403Damn this nigga's face looks like a fucking butt, I can't bear to look at it.
>>290905379That just sounds like bad prioritization and poor decision making.
>>290905414But his scheme worked. I think. Probably. I don't even know anymore, things just happen now.
It's funny how people are now pretending to be Orihimeposters to try and get people to be upset at Orihime.It's true mental illness.
She cannot be stopped! She will be the center talk for years to come!Whether is Aizenfags or IRkeks they will never take her name out of their mouths!
>>290905400But the dynamic duo are always marketed together?
>>290905441>>290905444>We're doing it, Fillerhimebros! We're really doing it!
>>290905451tf is wrong with Rukia's face here??
>>290905451That makes sense back then. Now it's not the same anymore. Where's the Renji and Rukia marketing as well? I actually agree with removing Ichigo and the other characters from the marketing if they’re not going to be treated like priorities in the material itself. You can’t sideline or tear down certain characters to prop others up, then suddenly bitch out when it comes time for mass marketing and run straight back to the same familiar faces to sell the product. If you’re confident in the characters you chose to push, then market them accordingly. Otherwise, it just reeks of insecurity in your own decisions.
>>290905451>No! Rukia was never the objective favorite! Fillerhime always and forever I don't give a shit! >Here's a Fillerhime titcow image to brighten your shitty day, faggot!
>>290905472himekeks... our response?
>>290904722They completely ruined any mature tone after Land of Waves and I will never cope. Remember when Naruto snuck into stores to look at nude magazines like Roshi? Grittier chapter covers showing him as a full fledged assassin most likely?Part 2 is fucking GAY.
They spent more time on the nerd room than Aizen
I kind of wish I didn't watch Tybw. It's destroying my last memory of the anime. I only held negative opinions on the tybw manga. But the anime I still liked enough.Now I hate both the manga and the anime. Thanks pierrot.
>>290905451I still don't understand why Rukia's own Bankai wants her fucking dead. It's not even extra strong to compensate for the downsides, it just wants to kill her. Is she okay? Emotionally? Mentally?
>>290905485>Don't worry! Fillerhime will be the one in the end to do it all just you wait aren't my constant Fillerhime posts unbearable and poorly timed given recent events and people's bitterness from Aizen (whoops sorry not other characters matter or should be discussed other than our Fillerqueenme!>Here have a sexy simpy Fillertitcow as a handy dandy Fillerbullshit!
>>290905469Rukia's popularity has been a huge torn in Kubo's side ever since Bleach was being published, it is evident now that he no longer cares for her as much as he did in the 2000s but because her overwhelming clout and how beloved her relationship with Ichigo is he is forced to keep mentioning her name for marketing reasons. Things are going to be very interesting in the Hell arc where they are married and have children with other people, how will Kubo handle that minefield?
>>290905472'hime sisters.....our reesponse??
Not that it was every actually contentious but did Rukia just admit Renji is stronger than her?
>>290905503This. What was the point of this slideshow adaptation?
I pay respect to orihimechads
>>290905538>Uh oh, Fillerhimebros! Looks like too much posting other another certain character (Ruki-yuk!)>You know what to do!>Here's a picture of our Fillerqueenme! >May your days be blessed and full of FillerhimGod!
Look at this. They clearly have no problem marketing non main characters when they actually believe those characters can carry attention on their own. They'll give side characters solo visuals, merch, campaigns, key art, whatever. But when it comes to Orihime and Ishida, suddenly they need Ichigo attached to everything like a life-support machine.That's the part people keep ignoring. If Orihime and Ishida were supposedly these massive breakout characters now, why is the marketing so hesitant to test them by themselves? Why not give them major standalone campaigns and see how much demand they can generate without leaning on the face of the franchise?You can't brag that they're carrying Bleach, gaining endless new fans, and dominating the conversation, then turn around and excuse the company constantly anchoring them to Ichigo. At some point the marketing behavior tells you something like companies are usually much more willing to push characters independently when they trust that those characters can actually move attention, merch, or engagement on their own.So that's the contradiction. People talk like Orihime and Ishida have become these unstoppable stars, but the actual promotional strategy still looks cautious as hell whenever Ichigo isn't there to guarantee interest.
>>290905568The best girl
kinda funny how ichigo just ignored everything that happened in episode 45 lmao
>>290905568>Yes, anon! Kneel down before our Fillerqueenme! Literally nothing else matters!>Time to post another Image of our dead as a doorknob personality Fillerhime!
>>290905548I guess she did
The anime hasn't really fixed the manga. Everything feels very disjointed, the vizards amounted to just 1 minute of badly animated nothing, episodes 6 and 7 were just boring as shit, slaughtering Renji in half a second in 6 means it's retarded that anyone or Renji himself would think he should still try to fight Yhwach again, lot of new scenes wasted on those two little soul reapears, the Hueco Mundo and real world stuff at the end is so disjointed they make no sense.
>sky becomes clear>episode turns out shitCoincidence??
>>290905548Rukia is better at kido while Renji sucks at kido. As evidence by Aizen, high level shinigami fights require kido instead of just depending on your zanpakuto
>>290905548she's setting up her renji cumsock arc
>>290905319Based
>>290904271>>They kept the shit with Kommamura and IbaThat was from the manga? I forgot about it. It reminds me of them keeping Kensei and Hisagi training for bankai, Kubo probably wanted to draw his bankai at the start of the arc and then didn't find a way to incorporate it, why leave that scene in now?
>>290905588Idk why Orihime and Uryu fans shit on Ichigo so much. They clearly rely on him for attention.
It's her birthday today.
>>290905633>That was from the manga?No. Ignore Diapa's inane ramblings
>>290903527
>>290905598He didn't? He was about to become the SK before Yuha came back.
>>290905645Anon, Orihime fans pretty much all love Ichigo.
Aizen lost -99999999999999999 aura in this ep
>>290905022Yeah it kind of makes Iba look worse, like... brother you did absolutely nothing this entire war, not try to fight and eventually get taken out by a big treat, you were just playing catch with your dog.
>>290905493Nart became retarded when it became all about the spiral eye bullshit and seeing how many extra characters they can give the spiral eye bullshit to, only for them to never even use the spiral eye bullshit, completely devaluing the specialness of even having the spiral eye bullshit
>>290905674That;s not true. Orihimeschizo is also an Uryu fan and spams threads with anti-ichigo hate.
>>290904890blame ep 45 and ep 47 filler scenes
How much we wanna bet they blow the budget on another episode like 45, then retcon all of it as an Aizen illusion for Yhwach.
why did they set up an entire life-like statue for ichigo and recreate all his swords just for him to not be the focus in c4...wtf
aizen bankai next episode trust me bro
>>290905690brother do you hear yourself
>>290905493>a kid sneaking into the AO section in the bookstore is 'mature tone'
>>290905729I'm worried for him, anon.
>>290905723>HopeNah I prefer despair
I will be here enjoying the kino that will be an all new original final battle spanning over three rhealms in October. It's obvious Taguchi, Yamashita, Kanno, Hashimoto and other veterans will be involved in ED, SB and animation. Until then threads will be infested with Narutards and Daiper spamming.
>>290905720Exactly. That’s what makes the whole thing look ridiculous. They went out of their way to build a life-size Ichigo statue and recreate his swords for promotion, yet people still want to argue that he somehow isn’t supposed to be the main focus of Cour 4.If Ishida and Orihime are supposedly the real focus now, then where is that level of investment for them? Where’s Ishida’s massive centerpiece display? Where’s Orihime’s equivalent solo promotional installation? Where’s the campaign treating either of them like the character audiences are actually supposed to be showing up for?You can’t use Ichigo as the giant visual centerpiece to sell the cour, plaster his image everywhere, and then turn around and say the story focusing elsewhere is completely natural. If Ishida and Orihime are important enough to displace the protagonist, then market them like it. Otherwise it just looks like they know Ichigo is what gets people through the door while other characters get the actual screen time. I would've have a problem with this if they weren't being deceitful and just told the truth.
>>290905683It was shit long before that.
>>290905741I mean Uryu is bossing lately. Ichigo isn't holding up too well this arc desu.
>>290905661why did he forget that yhwach can reverse his death if he literally saw it twice in ep 45?
>>290905757no one cares
Where the FUCK are Urahara and Yoruichi? Why did Nel turn into a kid again? Why don't the deadbeats do anything except deliver an arrowhead?
>>290905757Yeah, I can't wait. Episode 49 and Episode 50 is going to be incredible.
>>290905472she looks so dumb (in a good way) with the lower fangs
>>290905778Unlimited Zangetsu works is happening in 49,50. You know it's coming.
>>290905778>Orihime is important enough to displace the protagonistBrother, she got to shine in a single episode for once in the entire series. An episode where she shared the screentime with Rukia and Ichigo. What story focus?
>>290905796He couldn't see the almighty returning to Yuha at the end of 45.
>>290905825Just because Ichigo is on the poster doesn't mean it's about him.
>>290905798>>290905050
>>290905809all of this is explained speedwatcher-kun
>>290905838“One episode” isn’t the defense you think it is. They clearly knew how to selectively make Orihime shine. The difference is they still marketed Ichigo, not her. If she’s the one getting the push, then have the confidence to sell her instead of using Ichigo as the safety net. Her solo episode is the one episode where BC and HOS debuted. I feel like it's not clicking for you how flipped this is.
>>29090582549 will be the only action episode left but they screwed everything trying to shove in every side character cameo in a big multiverse battle. It's so fucked. We'll probably see more of those two little jobbers than anything people are hoping for, like Aizen or Ichigo actually doing something. 50 is for the epilogue. I can't even comprehend how they decided to waste so much time on nonsense.
>>290905838>Brother, she got to shine in a single episode for once in the entire series.Yeah, people do not understand how many Orihime scenes have been cut throughout the years. They didn't even animate this one.
if you're still watching 49 and 50 after that last episode you might be an actual cuckold
>>290905838>Brother, she got to shine in a single episode for once in the entire series. then market her along side ichigo in c4? what's difficult about that. they could've just had orihime as the solo poster.
