    Bleach 75-76 Discussion

    DB sub link:

    Episode 75-76 - Dattebayo


    Well, this episode wasn't all bad. In fact it got a good stride to a better direction. It still suffered from bad action, but it looks like it was now more a decision dictated by the plot and pacing than lack of script writing or funds. The plot itself doesn't seem to be exactly brilliant, but at least it's tolerable so far, despite the lack of ingenuity.

    One thing that bothered me, though: Where was Ichigo aiming at with his shikai? It seems to me like he was just aiming to ruin the mansion. Well, I suppose it pisses off the host if you break his house, but in a battle for life and death, it might be wiser to finish off the enemy, not his house.

    The Shinigami's Illutrated Picture Book was absolutely great, though! I don't claim to understand what the hell it was all about, but it was excellent nonetheless.

    I dont care if it doesnt show any preview but I think I know that some of Caps are going to the real world. And the thought of that is enough for me. The quality of the plot also does not bother, as it still is better compared to the naruto fillers. Love the new opening and ending theme. One questionthough, are they actually going to use those compact soul pez dispensers? o_O

    I haven't watched the ep yet. but I did get ahold of the op/ed and I must say: they actually make me think the fillers will be good.

    Bleach op.

    Bleach ed.

    Although I have been deceived before....

    thanks Knives, its nice to have a link to the OP and ED for those who aren't watching the filler. Some of my thoughts on the OP:

    After the 'Duck pez dispenser thingy' (what was its stupid name again?) pops you see several Shinigamis leaving their 'human forms', suggesting that they're going to take part in this filler fiasco set in the Human World

    Byakuya in a crisp looking suit, weird hair things still in
    Renji in the dirty hippy outfit
    Hitsugaya in a suit with some red tie or something
    Matsumoto (same shot as Hitsugaya, from behind) in a white shirt and a ponytail

    an OP entirely dedicated to filler (barf). Aside from it being all filler oriented, I also didn't like the song and some of the sequences used in it. The rolling CDs and some of the TV panel shots come to mind. Felt like they were trying too hard to re-create something from the ~Asterisk~ OP vein....

    The new ED - pretty good track, rather basic sequences. I liked it. Some super stylish outfits and the ending with all the ladies sitting together is nice. Anyone notice it focus on Hitsugaya for an absurdly long time?

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Yeah, the more I watch this filler arc, the more I like it. It's just miles better than the Naruto ones.

    And yeah, the arc is pretty much dedicated to the Bountou, so...I'm expecting an entire season of this arc. Which doesn't bother me too much anymore. I mean, they gotta do it, and they are getting better at it instead of worse.


    That bit where Ichigo asked why the stuffed animals didn't just put each other in their bodies just cracked me up. And also confirmed for me that Ichigo has a little girls comatose body stuffed in his closet somewhere. I'm really looking forward to the hilarity that will bring up at some point(seriously, doesn't it make sense to give the girl to Inoue?).

    Well this was both refreshing and some what confusing in parts. Logic seems to be lost in these fillers in both events and animation. As I've said before if I focus on the bad when I liked it, it's hard for me to point out what sucked with out insulting myself.

    Therefore, thats the end of my comments

    (Stupid running animation, why with different animations of running do they go the same speed?)

    The OP and ED show a clear affinity for charachtes in snappy designer clothing which seems to be taking over the show from the outside in. I didn't really vibe with either song, which makes me sad since i've liked every Bleach OP and ED since Asterisk. As to the fillers, they do seem to be getting better. I think there's actually a coherant plot now, and while it probobly won't live up to the rest of the show it has a chance to not be an embarassment to the show. Ichinose's Shikai looks very intriguing, I hope more gets revealed about him and as well as his power later on.

    Even though Ichigo can't get bankai in the real world (yet), I'd love to see Ichigo just wipe the floor with the Bountou. This episode made me yell bankai.
    Anyways, at least we get a Shinigami battle. These Bountou summon battles need a little rest.
    I liked the ending better than the opening. The opening doesn't have that Bleach feel to it, for some reason.

    Aye. A proper Shinigami battle was long overdue, especially after the endless battles against those water brothers. The summon fights certainly were mostly stupid and suffered greatly from lack of real action, probably exactly due to the difficulty of balancing and pacing such fights (as the question why attack the summons instead of the summoner never got answered). And it looks like Ichigo can only fight properly against Hollows and other Shinigami, anyway...

    Well I thought they said in 73-74 if the doll is destroyed then so is the bound. Apparently I either missed something or thye just explained it better that the seal needs to be destroyed to kill the Bound.

    Anyway terrible two part episode it just felt slow and uninspired and the entire plot line continues to contradict and complicate the manga plot which doesn't boad well for the future.

    Oh and the opening was WAY better for me then the ending although both of them sucked horribly. Make the hurting stop and get this arc to end asap.

    stop being so fucking retarded. Two part episode doesn't mean two hours...

    whoever said that this would be two hours was obviously wrong. Doesn't matter who said it, it fucking doesn't matter now that it's out and only 1 hour long... You actually want another hour of this crap?

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    Actually it WAS a 2 hour special. But it was a special shared with another show, which also aired it's own 2 episodes.

    2 different shows, 4 episodes, 2 hours, 1 special.


    My main complaint about the new opening is that japanese guys singing in english with a really heavy japanese accent always sounds like shit. Like the singers got down syndrome.

    If you're gonna sing the song in english anyway, just pay for an english speaking singer.
