Episode 136 Discussion Thread

[Pellissier]

Welcome to the discussion thread for Bleach, episode 136.

---

Absolutely no manga spoilers in any anime-only threads such as the weekly Episode Discussion threads. That means, no hints, or vague remarks about a future event from the manga, even within the spoiler tags. Inability to observe this rule will result in a BAN!

[Thewanderer]

Wow, when I made an episode thread like this, it was deleted and I was told not to do that <.<

Well can't wait to see the ep

[Hir0]

Filler episodes ARE actual episodes...

[Ryuk]

Hehe, at it again.... Since you hate the term filler so much, what do you propose we call anime episodes that do not follow the manga storyline(or to not mix in the manga argument, episodes that do not follow the main storyline)?

Yes fillers are actual episodes, but they are actually bad most of the time(IMO and many others too); hence the term filler. Why do you persist with the filler debate, is this not a matter in which the majority of people agree(and are right)?

Just ignore the filler bashing, even though they _may_ suck it's still better than nothing(sometimes!)

and on Topic: This episode will suck!

[hi no ken Jebus]

Wow this will surely piss quite a few anyway...

Spoiler:

A group of arrancar are fed up with aizen and they are tired of taking his orders since he's a shinigami. They try to steal the hougyoku but ulquiorra tries to stop them. After getting his ass handed to him in such a pathetic fashion they steal it. They go to the human realm to see urahara and ask him about it. Unfortunately he's gone with chad to further his training. So the other shinigami spring into action and badly animated fight sequences later episode ends with ulquiorra appearing in the human world. The bonus stuff hiyori, ichigo, and hirako are out shopping and they run into a hollow. In order for ichigo not to be recognized in his shinigami attire hirako gives him a cat mask to fight in.

This isn't about the terminology. It's about people respecting and not discriminating fillers. Now don't jump on me about trying to encourage fairness.

On topic: I agree. This episode WILL suck.

[Ryuk]

There is really no reason why they should be jumping up and down in quality like this even if the episodes are fillers, it makes no sense. I would gladly trade in 2 bad fillers for 1 good, even though I would be going one week without bleach.

Ah well, in the meantime there is always Claymore..

[Reticia]

Fillers again...since there was some characters inside I expected more, like a return to the story, with Ichigo.

Spoiler:

Damn, Ulqiora got beaten up so easilly, it was pathetic

[lommm]

ALERT TO MODS: mist2123 put a manga spoiler there. that's a big spoiler for something from much later in the manga. as far as i know, the anime threads are to contain no manga spoilers whatsoever.

@mist2123: please remove your manga spoiler and it's reference. all you need to say is

Spoiler for Ulquiorra:

Damn Ulquiorra got owned!!! and those arrancars weren't even strong enough to own grim!!!!!

[stonedzombie]

for those of ya who've seen next week's ep preview, does it look like a return to the manga storyline or more filler?

[striderm]

For the one preview pic in that earlier group of pics I can tell this filler story continues.

Spoiler for Response:

Not sure that makes a lot of sense, because if they're strong enough to own Ulq, then by default they'd be strong enough to own Grim.

And yeah, I didn't like this ep...

I don't actuially read it, but I know the plotline and what happens.

I still don't see any logic in your last statement though, sorry

[kboykb]

all I gotta say is I'm sure Ulquiorra is one of the lower ranked espada, so those dudes shouldn't even be able to touch him!! they're not even ranked...

Maybe they're not ranked because they're against Aizen. I know if I was Aizen, I wouldn't let non-sympathizers into my high ranks.

what i mean is that ulquiorra is much more 'badasrse' than those random arrancars.

You are totally wrong.
