As someone who gives talks a few times a year about water poisoning and why it's bad; I fully endorse Askin's stupid rear end powers.

Is it weird that while all of these dudes powers are ridiculous, I find Askin's more annoying than the power that lets you erase the name of something and therefore take away its...like, everything? Like bro, lethal dosage of blood in the body? GTFO, get the guy whose power is "swords, but flower petals" back. Now that's a strong foundation I can get behind.

Flower petals? You got it:

drat, they really played up Ichibei's menacing nature. He's a great shittalker and downright frightening once his mask slips off. Great fight sequence from everyone in the first half of the finale. Major props to Pierrot for pulling all the stops on this.

I was very much looking forward to what they did here since I forgot how little Squad Zero actually did in the manga after the fight with Ichibe starts. Hint: They die. That's it. I was not disappointed and, yeah, absolutely cool reason for them to not be around anymore tbh.

Squad Zero rules, that Bankai rules, I only wish we got to see what kinda bullshit the rest of them had. Maybe we get lucky and they include it. gently caress, do they end up in Hell now given what's been said about how the world functions from that one off chapter? Give me that if and whenever the Hell Arc shows up.

Good finale surprised at the Kon stuff at the ending instead of a stinger. Did we always know Kon stood for King of New York???

according to the novels, they can't actually die. as long as the soul king is still alive, they just respawn at their palaces

Also, these 2 episodes were fantastic. Great additions for the royal guard and really cool to see another bankai.

False enemy or true friend?
I wonder if they're just going to count U and N out or are they going to continue onto the next season? It seems like they may have just died offscreen, and they cut out all Robert's speech too.

This has been absolutely excellent and I love the manga so it's been a treat. Seeing them not only animate a lot of these scenes and then also adding stuff like Ichibei talking with Yhwach in the past. I really wasn't expecting extra content like that but it owns

So outta curiousity, what was your favorite fight/moment from this cour?

I don't remember the Manga too well but the main Karakura support cast + Rukia basically don't do anything after this point, right?

Not really, Chad fights some un-named golems that had nothing to do with anything, he very well could've lost against them too since it happened off panel. Orihime has a little bit to do, Rukia & Renji just kind of show up to say hello

After this Royal guard fight I wouldn’t be surprised if Chad and Orihime get to do more. At least the dad brigade should.


I liked how Thor’s heart glowed when she tries to skewer him. He’s supposed to be the soul kings heart right?

Chad fights a bunch of statues offscreen, Orihime supports Ichigo in his "fight" with Yhwach before he just pulls his "lol I win" almighty bullshit, Rukia and Renji are part of the conga line that fights Miracle and get destroyed.

His reasoning was fine in the Manga. He wanted to take revenge and kill Ywach for burning down his village/castle whatever and leaving him an orphan. After Ywach ascends they all sort of start turning on each other anyway. Lillito and Giselle are just friends tagging along with Bazz-B since they're like, the only three left at that point.

Sleep, rest, do your best.
I can probably list five or ten anime I like better than their original manga, but I don’t know if there are other series that had direct involvement from the original author to this extent.
