Episode 129 Discussion Thread

[monir]

Screenshots: Ahoy mateys! Can you believe the weather over here? It was warm and pleasant yesterday, and now the cloud is looming to make the day muggy and soggy and foggy and yucky and.. yeah. Either let it rain, or go away clouds. *shakes fist at clouds*

As for the episode, Rangiku looses points in coolness factor. The end.

Matsumoto never had such points to begin with.

And damn, still no Renji.

Another garbage episode... I haven't even seen it and I won't bother: from the screenshots it's clear it's about filler crap again. Too bad we can't vote for the episodes...

Tsk tsk tsk. Well, one thing is certain after reading your post... it's a good thing there is no poll for the episode discussion in the Bleach section of the forum.

[Hisago]

I wouldn't mind the fillers so much if they were Espada-related...
We want to know what goes on behind the bland white walls of Las Noches!
I hope this week's chapter is less dissapointing.

[Chaoswind]

I hope this one is above average

Yea, I wish her and the ice midget would just go away already.



This filler is gonna be going on for awhile in case anyone was wondering so you
can save yourself the trip to come here and trash it each week.

I'm starting to like the new arc. The hollow seems to only be on the same power level as GF was pre SS makeing him nothing to a VC let alone a captian but his ablities more then make up for it. while 1 GF level oponent is nothing 20 or 30 or even hundreads are not.

Why is it a good thing? Because evreybody has to scream "kawaiii" or otherwise he's a whiner?

[Tommy]

This one so bad it hurt.

[Jays]

I think this is probably the worst Bleach episode to date. The animation just felt like I was being punched in the face repeadetly.

At least the preview for the next one looks like they will be using better animation.

i totaly agree with you damn they are wasting money for that C**PY ep

[Hyperion]

I loved this episode for the Golden Cup alone!

1000000000pts.

[Thewanderer]

Awesome ep overall, excpt for one thing, which I'll get to at the end of this post.

It seemed at first like that Arrancar was the little girl because of the ocarina tune, but obviously it wasn't. Might just be a coincidence, but... I doubt it.

Also, Hitsu kinda overdid it with that Shikai attack. Did they ever consider restoring their limiters for now?

Oh, and Hitsu really needs to stop running with his sword.



Maybe I'm a li'l too spoiled now, but I couldn't get into it because because...

Spoiler:

No Hiyori

[saravis]

Wow this was by far the worst episode in Bleach I have ever seen. There was absolutely no redeeming qualities about it what so ever. What's with the degradation of Matsumoto, she's horrible in this arc. Not even SG was any good, a joke that has been way overused. 1/10

[Yoruichi]

Hmmm, wether she had a cool factor or not I was just wondering why Monir said Ragiku lost points in that department, to me she seemed the same as usual. Now Wanderer, don't go blowing a gasket here I just want to point out an observation, you say you arn't biased towards fillers, yet you say this episode was awsome? Comon now let's be realistic. I know it's a matter of opinion but really, this wasn't even close to being awsome. I have nothing against fillers, actually I enjoy them myself a high percentage of the time. This one however was way below par. You saying it's awsome baffles me and makes me think you like fillers no matter how terrible they may be. If there was an episode that was part of the regular manga arc, and I thought it was no good, I would say so, not all episodes are good be it manga or filler no matter how much we want it to be. Now don't blow yer stack, I'm just saying, it just seems you like to say it's good to defend it being a filler even if it isn't, it just looks that way to me. But like I said I'm not a filler hater, I like em, but I know when something is good and something isn't, and this episode wasn't that great. *waits for backlash*

[socto]

i actually like this small filler arc. its sort of taking the concept of bleach back to how it was in series 1.

most of you guys seem to have forgotten that bleach wasn't always dragonball z with ubermax swords and that it used to be a pretty entertaining ghost story/mystery show.

I enjoyed it. What's wrong with that?

And if you had payed attention to my posts during the Bound arc, you'd know that I don't like every filler.

[Yoruichi]

No nothings wrong with that. Just don't see what made this episode all that awsome, awsome is a strong word to be throwing around, especially for such a not so great episode IMO, but to each his own. Oh and I didn't catch all yer posts on the Bounto arc, so you would know better than me. Oh by the way if you've seen my previous posts you will know I'm not usually this direct towards people, but I have been drinking a little alcohol tonight so that plays a factor in my current attitude, damn you Colt 45 malt liquor.

Well to go a little off topic here... I honestly couldn't stand how the Bound arc ended. Around the last 5 episodes mainly. There were tons episodes in that arc I didn't have an opinion of either way, but other than the final few, none I particularly hated.

And about this episode... most of the complaints in this thread were about Matsumoto. Maybe it's that I didn't like that character to begin with, maybe I just find the storyline of this mini-arc to me interesting. But I did like the episode quite a lot.
