This was borderline alright and the sub par animation didn't help much either.

Spoiler:

Mangawise ch 207 to 209.

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!

Spoiler for for how one part of this ep played out in the manga:

ThoHell · 2007-03-28, 12:42

Man oh man, this is getting good! The music fits the scenes so perfectly.

And what's with that little shop girl? She's completely freaky with her weird personality and monstrous strength!

Spoiler for ep 120:

Spoiler for ep 120:

It's not the first time she's been shown like that, remeber Ichigo's training before SS arc.

Nop, the other way around - they are using 25% now, meaning only one quarter of their actual strength. 4 times more power certainly seems good enough to turn the tables, no ?

Ah...thanks for correcting me. I still see hope as a slim chance....

And yeah I remember her from back when Ichi was training to go to SS, I was just wondering why she's such a monster. She has a lot fo mysteries behind her!

lommm · 2007-03-28, 15:00

oh no! i see the other mod dolls! that will make a lot of people very angry!!

lol

i like nova though, so it's all good to me!

poor little ururu! it's because all of the Karakura Super Heroes were not assembled. if Don Kan'onji had the whole team there then the arrancar would be toast!!

and i can't believe they are continuing the Kon/Hanatarou sexy chronicles!! lol Poor Hana!!

ThoHell · 2007-03-28, 15:20

LOL, exactly how I felt when I saw those mod souls again. All hell is going to break loose again!

astrallionheart · 2007-03-28, 16:11

Poor Renji got deleveled. First he holds off Captain Byakuya's zanjutsu, now he can't hold a candle to a 3rd seat Ikkaku =P

kagato3 · 2007-03-28, 17:05

Just remeber that because Renji is a VC he is only at 20% power right now (not as others have said 25%) which means with out the limit he is 5 times as strong as he had been durring the fight, and Ikkaku was not limited in any way since he is only a 3rd seat. So they are likely fairly close in power level.

Skyfall · 2007-03-28, 17:08

20% ... 25% ... bleh, forgetting all the time ^__^. But that only makes it better - meaning Hitsu and Renji will be 5 times stronger. I foresee major arsekicking. (Though Renji needs to get beaten up badly, not to break the tradition)

lommm · 2007-03-28, 17:24

et Matsumoto? you don't think she'll be giving out a good boob-kicking?! lol

edit: i should just say arse-kicking or this will devolve into a top-heavy discussion...

I think the next few episodes will make my point painfully obvious. Just wait and see.

Lendial · 2007-03-28, 18:50

my god she is kicking some A.SS! how is she that strong. renji couldnt lay a finger on him but here she is just pummeling him.

Zu Ra · 2007-03-28, 20:08

I want to see the releases I hope they are El Spectacular like Edoardo

Guido · 2007-03-28, 21:14

I have three complains for this episode which are either minor technical details or minor plot incursions.

Spoiler:

Taking those flaws aside, this was such an exciting and entertaining episode with fill-ins on the arrancar's power hierarchy, and I may say that the cliffhanger at the end came with timing to have me hooked up for next episode.

BTW, according to Omniscients' information sources, a new opening and ending theme songs are going to debut next week.

Impossible. Renji needs to lose

Because they're legitimate characters just like the rest.

vhx · 2007-03-29, 00:18

All I have to say is Ururu is awesome, she totally smashed that guy. Best part of the ep. Hopefully we'll find out some more about her later. :P

Nice to know Renji and the team he picked aren't completely useless like I thought. I was like oh boy, Hitsugaya never gets a break. He always loses whenever he fights. Hopefully that trend changes with the authorization to use full force. Can't wait for the next episode.

Blaster · 2007-03-29, 00:26

Renji is useless. After he released his bankai, all he did was to swing his bankai left and right. Hitsu kept swinging his bankai too? It makes me wonder if they only have just enough reiastu to release bankai and nothing else. The only difference between Hitsu and Renji is, Hitsu used Shunpo. IMO, the appearance of the trio is nice but Cloud wasn't needed. Nova could have teleported Renji instead.

Kind of sad that Ururu was fast enough to dodge a few of 15th arrancar's attacks. Renji got slashed by it.

One more thing. They cut short Rangiku's fighting scene. I think she's going to release her zanpaktou and win, like what she did to Kira.

KiNA · 2007-03-29, 00:43

Monir would be please with this episode IMO

...

Altho I'm dissappointed that Yumichika doing nothing whatsoever in this battle but showing his pretty face near Ikkaku .. too bad since his zanpaktou power would be very interesting to watch >.<

So mod souls joined in the fight with Renji .. as expected

.. And the purist would raised hell I'm sure.. I, for one, don't bothered by them.. They did nothing but extended the little timespan.. It didnt change the flow of the story at all.

I couldnt wait to see how Ichigo get saved.. lets face it, Bleach is following the same circle as before, he havent go tru a power leveling up training yet, thus he doomed to be saved in the 1st real boss fight

.. One think for sure, its definitely not gonna be Uruhara and Yoruichi once again

hi no ken Jebus Senior Member Join Date: Jun 2004	Episode 120 Discussion Thread This was borderline alright and the sub par animation didn't help much either. Spoiler: -hitsugaya like usual is bleeding and being useless. Matsumoto is unconscious. And Renji well when was this guy something other than a punching bag. While renji is getting beat up ururu is having visions of ichigo and co getting hurt. -the mod soul squad jump in to help renji by distracting no. 15 of course this proves useless when the arrancar has enough of it. -ururu appears and beats up no. 15 until he gets pissed off and releases his zanpakuto Del Toro. He smacks away ururu with his horns jinta jumps in to fight but they get saved by renji. -ichigo is trying to fight grimmjow who doesn't feel like killing ichigo until he pulls out his bankai. -meanwhile no. 11 is disappointed at hitsugaya and his bankai. He tells hitsugaya that it looks like his bankai is incomplete and that the ice flowers on his back are seem to be some sort of countdown until it disappears. So before that happens no. 11 Shawlong decides to end it at full power so he releases his Tijereta as well. -After smacking hitsugaya around, hitsugaya asks him about the significance of their numbers. Shawlong is such a gentleman that he explains that no. 11 down is the order they were born through the hougyoku and are under the complete control of 10 and up. 10 and up are based on their fighting ability and they are called the Espadas. Espada no. 6 Grimmjow Jaggerjack is the one who came to Earth with the group. -hitsugaya is getting starting to get anxious about something, then SS contacts Matsumoto that their limit release has been approved. Matsumoto tells hitsugaya and renji they release their limit and episode ends. -the preview looks insane so hopefully it makes up for this week. -the kon erotic soul society chronicles was alright.

She's completely freaky with her weird personality and monstrous strength! Spoiler for ep 120: The guys that everyone else is fighting besides Ichi (who's fighting Grim #6 Espada), aren't even Espadas, merely the lowbies that flock around them. They're being completely overwhelmed by them with little effort, even against Hitsugaya who's an above average captain. The Espadas strength and the followers are worlds apart, the Espada alone is more than enough to take down SS. Well, everyone who reads the manga knows the outcome of this battle, but I still don't see how now that they're able to use 100% of their power will do really have that much of an effect. Are they like currently using 75% of the power right now and now since the limit is off another additional 25%? They were being toyed with so easily before, even when they were in ban kai, I still don't see how they have any chance at all once those arancars unseal their soul slayers. Anyways the outcome is obvious, but that's what is bugging me. Still looking forward to more action without a doubt!

Guido Snobby Gentleman Join Date: May 2004 Location: Monterrey, México Age: 43	Bleach 120 I have three complains for this episode which are either minor technical details or minor plot incursions. Spoiler: 1. Why I do praise the staff for their conscientious efforts to slow down the anime's pace so as to prevent it from catching up with the manga, why out of all places persist to use Ririn, Claude, and Nova? Their intromission shook the tense of Renji's seemingly no hope fight with Ilfort at first. The enemies was an arrancar with an insane level of reitasu, thought not insane and higher to that of Grimmjow's. Common sense dictates if the enemy is unknown and is the first time you meet with it, better to remain at the sidelines and gather information that just buckle-up and try to grab the bull by the horns without being conscious on the consequences 2. The effect of Ururu's initial kick to Ilfort is off and pales in contrast to the WTF effect of the sandwich fists that she delivered to the arrancar. The power of her kick was downplayed, and I am mad since they should had made Ururu go monkey postal on Ilfort than just warming her up before beating his lights out on his pretty face. 3. I did not start to read the manga until chapter 245, but even I can tell with a few common sense that either they ban or edited the full scene when Ilfort (now released) impales Ururu with his horns. I mean there was no single trace of blood. Taking those flaws aside, this was such an exciting and entertaining episode with fill-ins on the arrancar's power hierarchy, and I may say that the cliffhanger at the end came with timing to have me hooked up for next episode. BTW, according to Omniscients' information sources, a new opening and ending theme songs are going to debut next week.
