Ohio gozaimasu! How is everyone doing this week? I've got to be honest. I really don't care if the yuri-captain wins or lose. I do, however, will enjoy if she continues to receive a thorough beating before her comprehensive win. And may be then she can proceed to give Kubo a smack-down for making her so foolish with her silly analyzing to gather tactical information for future references. Her analyzing skill sux0r b1g tim3. Other than the old man and the hawt espada who is fighting the annoying bratty captain, I want to see the lazy espada who is going against Shunshui. That's pretty much all the fight that I want to see.

I also want to see Orihime-chan. I miss her pretty face and her whining. I also miss her "Kurosaki-kun x 2^3" phrase in every episode. I wanna see this useless girl so bad. I also know I'll regret it once she comes into the picture again, but let's face it..... she is the closest thing to tickle our fancy for sadism, a required weekly dosage for every Orihime-fans out there. Yeah... we sooooo macho. *flexes biceps*

Enjoy the discussion.

Lol I definetly will hate animation team for a long time now because of how they showed Soi Fon last week

So much PWNG which never really happened in manga. I actually don't even remeber her analyzing anything there

Hope this episode will be better

Haak · 2009-06-09, 03:47

I was only able to get htrough half of the previous episode before giving up. I really hope this will be better. You can tell at this point where the animation team got the budget for the Hisagi vs Findor fight.

kitten320 · 2009-06-09, 03:54

Yep I was right!
I just checked manga for previouse episode and here is what we had there(those aren't spoilers,right?)

Ggio Vega gets free and smacks Soi Fon into the building and straight after it he releases his sword. Picture changes to Omaeda till the arrancar gets hit into the head where picture changes to Soi Fon lying in the building(last anime scene).
Nothing was in between... so yeh, animation team did an awful work last week -_-

**monir** · 2009-06-09, 04:20

Alright. Kubo is not to be blamed here for the blunder. The anime continuity and their ingenious nag for anime-originality that makes sense only to them is to blame for. On a second thought, I think I'll still maintain my displeasure for Kubo if there are no objection.

Nope, no objection^^

Although I expect similar drag for every other fight

I think it would be better to watch fillers for some time instead of seeing all cool characters in bad light, but that's just me.

Ichiban Hayai · 2009-06-09, 06:22

The episode was almost as boring as the previous one. It felt rather slow

Spoiler for what happened:

This is a shame actually. Characters who are low on Japanese popularity polls rarely have a chance to shine. I expect similar fights for the remaining 2nd-tier heroes and really flashy/cheesy/dragged fights for the popular ones.

These fights may not be flashy but they are cheesy and dragged out.

kitten320 · 2009-06-09, 07:50

Actually we did learn new thing... till now we always thought that Soi Fon has to struck you twice in exactly same place when in reality those are insides that need to be struck in same place. After all she placed one homonka in front and one behind.

Although once again they have stretched the episode... That big dude had to be crushed by the big wall in last episode, but they let him and Omaeda shine some more...

Now in order...

Spoiler for to save space:

And on happier note... Aaawwww! Ggio looked so cute in the begining when he looked at Soi Fon and Omaeda below him!

medigo · 2009-06-09, 08:19

as an avid defender of the Bleach Anime
I will admit this episode was below par, even moreso than last weeks episode
I still do not know why they dragged out this fight the most, *shrugs*
Oh well at least they were nice enough to use the mammoths real name

Don't worry, these fights won't last much longer. The new filler arc starts in 4 episodes

I thought I would never say it but... PLEASE! I want fillers! And better some good ones!

I don't want the other fights to look so lame -_-

I am waiting for the HD relerease to watch the episode even though i now what will happen.

Do you think Soi Fon was only play with the arrarancar?

Yes, she said it herslef after Omaeda got in the way. And her actions later only proves that.

medigo · 2009-06-09, 12:02

Ggio shouldn't have tried to transform when facing a speedster like her anyway

That's not entirely correct. It's not that the same spot must be internal. It can be anywhere on the body inside or out. Soi Fon explained it. She choose to target Gio Vega's organs this time. Thus the front and back hit both hit the same spot. She just pierced what looks to be Gio Vega's heart this time as shown in the anime.

socto · 2009-06-10, 00:34

wait...... wut? Ggio has a second release?

:-/

Blaster · 2009-06-10, 00:51

Basically the whole fight for Soi Fon should be about 1 minute at most. Soi Fon wasted so much of the show time to get him use his cero, which Omaeda did it in one move. LOL.

But is that Hinamori I see in the preview?

It felt rather slow Spoiler for what happened: Soi Fon did not use any new abilities and her opponent didn't have the chance to fight in his full potential either. The only surprise was Omaeda blocking the arrancar to save his captain. I really didn't expect it and it was a nice alternative. This is a shame actually. Characters who are low on Japanese popularity polls rarely have a chance to shine. I expect similar fights for the remaining 2nd-tier heroes and really flashy/cheesy/dragged fights for the popular ones.

After all she placed one homonka in front and one behind. Although once again they have stretched the episode... That big dude had to be crushed by the big wall in last episode, but they let him and Omaeda shine some more... Now in order... Spoiler for to save space: Since when is Soi Fon suprised that Omaeda is getting crushed into the building? It feels like if she intentionally let Vega to smash her into the building before so part of it would crash that arrancar. Soi Fon: Ah shit! Should let him hit me harder! On the side note... Soi Fon definetly didn't look like herself in that moment, she kinda looked like someone else. Now about Omaeda's heroic mission "Save the cap and calm down the baby" I was really impressed about it in manga but here... I just didn't feel the moment And the way Omaeda held Ggio Vega was more like trying to comfort a child. When I saw Vega in his embrace I was litteraly waiting for some dramatic music and some cool/calming line from Omaeda which would make poor Vega cry... Or on a bit other random note: Spoiler for random conversation: Omaeda: Captain! I got him! I caught the child! Ggio Vega: Who are you calling a child?! Omaeda: Well you are all small and stuff... just like my captain. Soi Fon: So I'm a small child? Omaeda: Eh! That's not what I ... Ggio Vega: Cero! Soi Fon: Shunko/Bankai! Omaeda: Oh shit! Now about Vega's death... when she struck him it almost felt like she had hit a balloon! About death effect... I'm damn dissapointed! In manga it looked so cool but here we just got a bigger version of her butterfly! I can't believe that I was waiting so long for something like this Here is the link to that moment in manga(if link is not allowed, I'll remove it): link removed To sum it all up... I really recommend all anime watchers to read manga starting from chapter 330 page 16 and till chapter 333 page 13. You will get a completly different effect from that fight. And on happier note... Aaawwww! Ggio looked so cute in the begining when he looked at Soi Fon and Omaeda below him! __________________ My anime list Last edited by Solace; 2009-06-09 at 12:43.
