C'mon guys. Stop flaming Bleach because of one lousy episode. All in all, out of 57 episodes so far, this is definitely not the worst.
Episode 50, now that was a disaster. They gave us Kon and that silly Don Kanonji. It wasn't even that funny, especially since two episodes of Bwahahaha is more than we can stand.
Anyway guys, don't grate our dear Tite Kubo just because of one or even a few lousy episodes. Most likely the studios are dragging the story a bit longer to get people to watch longer.
At the risk of getting flamed, the worst anime i ever watched was Gundam Seed Destiny. Now that was a waste of time, all 50 episodes of it, not just one, or two, or three, or four or even 10 episodes and 7 recap episodes. It was the whole bloody series.
(Note: I love Gundam Seed. A masterpiece)
Why am I bringing up GSD? Put it this way. In the past few episodes, we've all complained that we're itching to see Ichigo's Ban Kai but instead have been given a lot of backstory of other characters. The most interesting ones in the last few episodes is of course Yoruichi and Soi Fon. We also get a bit of Ukitake, Shunsui and even General Yamamoto. At least we're given even more additional backstory from which the story can be further developed and the fan fiction writers get a wealth of material to base their fiction off.
GSD, do you know for a series with 50 episodes, there are no less than 5 recap episodes? 5/50 that's 10% of the series my dear fellows. And do you know when the recaps happened? In Episode 41 and Episode 46. My dear fellows, it wasn't giving any new material. They're just replaying the same old scenes again and again from the past 40 episodes, hell, even from the previous series from which it was based, Gundam Seed.
Now that, is bloody bull shit and a waste of time.
Remember folks, at least we're given new stories and revelations the past few episodes, NOT USELESS RECAPS to educate new viewers of the show.
Anyway, THEY GAVE YORUICHI AN UNDERGARMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] that's what ticked me off in this episode. Sorry, the hormornal male has taken over my fingers and making his feelings heard.
