The original Gotei 13 We start off with another look into Yamamoto and Yhwach’s last fight before hopping to the opening. The vocalist from this song reminds me a little bit of Kenshi Yonezu, especially in the first little bit. That’s a big compliment, for anyone not familiar with Kenshi Yonezu. We stay in the … Continue reading Bleach Episode 7 – Born in the dark

Feeling the call of the night
I’ll be the first to admit that the first three or so episodes of this show didn’t really grab me that much when it comes to the story. Call of the night feels like it’s going for vibes over substance and although there’s definitely nothing wrong with that, without a proper story I’ll quickly start … Continue reading Feeling the call of the night
Bleach Episode 6 – The Fire
Uryuu's here too. We start off right where we left off last week, with the Captain Commander facing off against Yhwach. Not only that, Kyoraku is still fighting too. Äs Nödt, Bazz B and and NaNaNa, who each defeated the people they were dealing with handily jump to attack Yamamoto. Kyoraku isn’t worried though, as … Continue reading Bleach Episode 6 – The Fire
Summertime Rendering’s fantastic mystery
Official anime streaming websites have historically been sparse in my country. Even with the rise of Crunchyroll there were always large amounts of episodes missing. To give an example, I got an account there once to watch One Piece again, only to realize the middle 70% or so of episodes were unavailable. Because of this, … Continue reading Summertime Rendering’s fantastic mystery
Bleach Episode 5 – Full scale war
It’s time for Bleach! I’ve got a raging headache and a ton of other work and writing to do right now, so let’s dive into it quickly and not waste too much time. We continue where we left off last week, with Ichigo headed to Soul Society. At least that’s the message being spread, they … Continue reading Bleach Episode 5 – Full scale war
Bleach Recap #13: Fullbringers (Final)
Out of all the arcs that Kubo Tite wrote for Bleach, this is definitely one of them. The fullbringer arc leaves much to be desired. We leave the Aizen arc with Ichigo losing his powers and slowly being unable to see Rukia. The arc ends with Ichigo turning into a normal high school student and … Continue reading Bleach Recap #13: Fullbringers (Final)
Bleach Episode 4 – Bankai no more
Episode 4 already starts out with a recap of the first three episodes. I think that might be better than recapping just the previous episode. Speaking of which, remember how that one ended? Things got pretty hectic in Soul Society and Kira got murdered. It is an almost three minute recap though. Are we back … Continue reading Bleach Episode 4 – Bankai no more
Bleach Episode 3 – Soul Society Invaded
It seems like getting access to new Bleach episodes on Monday is going to be tough, especially to then also review them. So instead we’ll move this show to Tuesday. With that said, back to Hueco Mundo where Kurosaki Ichigo and Nel confront Quilge and his men. Ichigo also instantly recognizes his teleporting techniques as … Continue reading Bleach Episode 3 – Soul Society Invaded
Likeable characters
Maybe I’m getting old. Maybe I’m just going soft. But as of late I find myself enjoying more laidback shows a lot, as opposed to the more intense shows. I really felt this sentiment when I just watched two shows back to back. I started by watching Beast Tamer and followed it by watching Blue … Continue reading Likeable characters
Bleach Episode 2 – Hueco Mundo in Turmoil
I can’t believe it’s once again time for a weekly Bleach episode. It’s been so long since I experienced that weekly that it feels strange. We see Ywach talking to one of his subordinates who’s on the ground writhing in pain. From there we jump into the opening theme which is very pink. Not that … Continue reading Bleach Episode 2 – Hueco Mundo in Turmoil
