Episode 63 Screencaps and Long Summary

Spoiler for basically what happens:

-Recap of the fights from Soul Society and of Aizen and what he did.
-Shows everyone one week later.
-Ichigo and Inoue search for Rukia, and find her after she's made an apology to Kuukaku and Ganjuu for killing their brother.
-Rukia tells Ichigo that she's not going back.
-Ukitake gives Ichigo a substitute shinigami battle license.
-Urahara is there to catch Ichigo and company when they emerge back in the human world. He apologizes to Ichigo.
-Everyone returns home.

So they did do what I thought they'd do and recapped Soul Society for the first half of this episode (b/c otherwise they wouldn't have enough material to take up the hour). It transitions fairly well with the "One week after" stuff. There's a lot of forgiving going on as everyone is patching up relations strained by the situations. And Ichigo saying "I'm home" outside of the clinic feels like a nice way to end the episode.

Please do not discuss anything past episode 63, or else you risk a ban. Even [spoiler] [/spoiler] tags are no defense.

Edit: I forgot to mention: there is a new ED airing next week, 「マイペース」 (My Pace) by SunSet Swish.

*waits for subs to come out of it*

It's missing the Matsumoto asking Hisagi and Komumura to go drink with Kira and herself, Hisagi joins in and them commenting on how they think its better Komumura doesn't wear the helmet anymore... Then Ichigo and Orihime walk by and Matsumoto asks them to join but Ichigo says their busy, quickly asks where Rukia is, then Orihime says underage to drink, but Matsumoto says they have nice tea too...

Also Kira getting piss drunk and going on mini tirade and singing with Matsumoto (unless I dreamed that part).

Missing Ichigo climbing into his room and finding Kon in his body "thinking" of Orihime and doing "things" to himself (in Ichigo's body no less hahahah)...

Not that I don't understand why they cut those scenes out... lmao

Well, good children the 'Soul Society' arc has been officially closed down.

Hope all of you got a strong stomach, because you all gonna need it for next week as it begins twenty-six, yummy episodes full of pure, undiluted, filler material that are going to last until late-July or early-August.

The manga story will resume until episode 91, I guess.

Were the people in the preview the

Spoiler:

Vizards or the Arrancar? Don't fret mods. They were in the preview, hence not a REAL spoiler.

After the end of the episode I just had to let out that huge sigh of content and a bit of sadness along with it, but mostly content.

The episode in itself was from mildly amusing to highly amusing. There was a few attempt to bring in the serious-mood in the episode but something has always happened to counter it. For example, when Rukia tried to bring the mood down, Shiba punched her nose bloody.

Even though the first 20 mins was recap of the highlights of action in Bleach, Kon was hilarious as usual through his snide remarks. Somtime Ichigo, Ishida, and Renji joined in on the fun. Those comments were especially amusing during the Renji-Byakuya recap when everyone seems to find something wrong with Renji's ability and his bankai at that moment in fighting which resulted in his eventual defeat.

I have really enjoyed this episode and am already looking forward to the filler. From the preview it shows the series will adopt the similar setting the series Bleach started out with which made Bleach a likable series for me. Beside, the anime team has done such a superb job converting its script, they have earned the benefit of the doubt as the burden of storytelling fall on their shoulder. Yeah, I'll give them at least two episodes.

[Katapan]

I'm glad they didn't cut off the part where Hitsugaya comes in and scares Matsumoto, that was probably one of the funniest Bleach moments Same for when Matsumoto and Kira get drunk.
Pretty funny episode overall, I feared the long recap but the random Kon comments didn't make it bad.

The mean guys from the preview looked so much like Charden and Kyouko from Black Cat. Oh well, I guess we'll have to wait and see what they can do in the future episodes.

-----------------

I was really hoping for the Bleach filler eps to commence just as the Naruto ones would cease. Wishful thinking I know...

[Souzouryoku]

I always disliked this part in the manga. I hate when people say goodbye to each other It always makes me so sad.

Anyway, great ep! It was quite enjoyable. I was worried they were going to rush the first half, with all the goodbyes etc., then the second half have a filler. But I liked the way they ended up doing it.

I'll give these fillers a chance. They look promising.

[Daniel E.]

It's gonna be interesting to see a little bit of Bleach without knowing whats going to happen ahead of time.

Let's see what the fillers bring.

Im not going to watch the fillers (dont need to..) but i pray that it doesnt turn out like naruto.. please god no!

[hi no ken Jebus]

Damn completely forgot there was an episode this week.

Spoiler:

Well this was a mixed bag, the recap bit was pretty funny. Renji and Ichigo deserve their own spin off show. As for the conclusion episode of the arc some animation scenes looked off here and there but everything was pretty good on a whole. Lots of comedy without sad goodbyes just like it should be. Zaraki's "We will meet again" speech was a nice touch and lots of MIA Yachiru so it's all win. I'm glad they kept the Rukia punch in the face after I started seeing changes here and there I got a little worried. Although when you see it coming it's not as enjoyable.

The preview for the next looks hilarious what the hell happened to Kon and the 3 mysterious people seem interesting. Can't wait for the "Oh noes it's filler" bitching to begin Anyway there's a new ED coming up don't know if it comes with this coming ep or the next. Should be interesting to see how things go from here with Renji visiting Ichigo

[KJlost]

Well Bleach filler villans (?) don't look nearly as bad as Naruto's. Aoi looked girlish. Whatever the guy who handled lightening sword, was plain weird. Iwa bee clan = unassuming and not very recognizable. I'm sure I'm missing a few, so that speaks volume of how easily they're forgotten. What I'm worried about is that the design of these new characters look off-key from the others we've seen in the series so far.

[uaemarati]

where can someone download episode 63

?

last episode on the torrent list is 62

[nkoi]

very very late thing i really forgot to discuss... did anyone notice in the ep. where aisen "dies", did anyone notice he was stabbed with his own sword? i just thought that was a very big piece of foreshadow there...

[peter2004]

it's an 1 hour special am i right so it's ep 63 and ep64 because the last specail was 51-52.

[Kaka]

has been 3 weeks since the last episode air
god, that was long lol

anyway, I enjoyed the episode as usual
although some part from the manga got taken out, the anime had added in a few new stuff which were still amusing. The recap was petty interesting too
