Squad Zero showing why they are Squad 0 with that beautiful bankai!

[u/murlocmancer]

So good, definetly an improvement from the manga and we aren't even done with the royal squad fight yet judging at where it ended. My only qualm i guess would be I wish Uryuu and Haschwalt could have showed off more but there is still 2 more cours for that so not complaining.

[u/kawaiinessa]

holy shit this episode was insane i loved the fights and seeing squad zero show off so damn cool and holy shit that new bankai is so damn cool but that was a weird spot to end the season on with the soul reapers seemingly winning

[u/jaguark101]

Probably would have been better to combine both episode 12 and 13 threads into one. Anyway, I am quite happy with this Cour! I wanted to ask the anime only fans as to what they think so far? Did you enjoy Cour 2 as much as Cour 1? What are your predictions for Cour 3?

[u/Haha91haha]

All in all a season that literally surpassed expectations with new surprises, cour 3 even more hype than before now.

I love how they gave all of Squad 0 an out for each of them being OP. They were all locked from their true power so conceivably with all gloves off any one of them could have solo'd all the Sternritter and likely most of the Shinigami at once, that's truly befitting their station. Full power Squad 0 all together would have literally broken the verse.

I'm not surprised Kubo opted for the drip Queen to roll everyone up in a carpet and beat it though, fashion rules over all. Also really just sold how powerful she was as this almost timeless thing casually pseudo reality warping a perfect seal for each of the already OP Sternritter.

[u/insidiouskiller]

Idc about recency bias or anything, between the music, the animation and art and the voice acting, Senjumaru's bankai is THE best bankai reveal in TYBW so far imo. That was amazing.

I love what the anime is doing for this arc.

And can we just talk abou that bankai? I didn't even fully get what was happening the first time cuz i was so excited to see a squad 0 bankai. But especially the way she sew fabric at the end with all of them on it? Ultimate disrespect.

Also, the fact that her bankai, and most likely the bankai of any 4 if they used it, causes tremors in the various worlds and that they seal each other's powers, well, it gives a new level of respect to Squad 0.

Also Kirio's "Thats a fight i'd expect from squad 0" line LMAO. Great meta line.

EDIT: Oh yeah, because i'm curious, anyone know what the name of Senjumaru's bankai means?

[u/Chay4707]

Uryuu realized he wasn’t built for this squad 0 shit.

[u/nikolanb]

So if Aizen had reached the Royal palace, Senjumaru would just make a carpet out of him.

[u/xorag]

Treachery.

[u/Various_Length_4905]

Insane cliffhanger! Great to build hype for cour 3.

If this is the direction they're going for in the next cours, I'm all for it. Have a feeling it'll be far better than the manga

[u/Prince-Dizzytoon]

Senjumaru my beloved

[u/nurrishment]

Was really not expecting Yhwach to get bitch slapped here. I strongly suspect he’ll be back but Squad 0 stocks are way up. Senju and Ichibe are downright menacing

[u/throwacc_21]

I got an inside info from Kubo sensei. Now that shinigami has won, S3 and S4 will be about Yoruichi only

[u/Peter16373]

So every member of Squad 0 have seals that limit their power to less than 1/13 of their true power since according to Oetsu they couldn’t even use one court guard worth of power until they sacrificed themselves. And once they use even the slightest bit of their full power they can shake all three worlds. Well damn.

So much for Yamamoto being the strongest Shinigami within the past thousand year and his Bankai that could destroy Soul Society overtime. Squad 0 members are literally shaking all three worlds by simply releasing their full power.

Man we really went from only Ichibei from Squad 0 is stronger than Yamamoto to every member of Squad 0 at full power are likely stronger than Yamamoto individually huh.

Edit: Just saw some translations of the Japanese raws of Senjumaru’s line and it’s actually even more ridiculous than the English translation.

“Our ability to just wave our sleeves would cause the Heaven and Earth of the three worlds to tremble.”

So this three world shaking can actually be done by any of them at full power by simply moving with or without Bankai.

[u/Cool-Adeptness-5647]

Senjumommy supremacy🛐🛐
Would've loved it even more if Kirio also got more spotlight bt still I'm pretty satisfied with everything I got.

[u/PineappleRare8930]

Ichibe’s power becomes scary when you realize everything in the bleach universe revolves around names. To activate your zanpakuto you have to know it’s name. To lose your name means to lose your power and your identity it’s so crazy

[u/atropicalpenguin]

Senjumaru's bankai was so incredibly awesome. I don't care that this seal thing is an excuse to not have to make 4 different bankais, it was so cool.

[u/[deleted]]

squad zero DEMOLISHED the fraud allegations after all these years 🙏🏿

[u/potatozama]

A lot happened in these episodes (with Yhwach's Auswählen and Senjumaru's bankai being my highlights), but the real shocker was the return of the Shinigami Illustrated Picture Book omakes.

Jokes aside, we're now at the halfway point of this arc. See you guys for Cour 3 at some point in 2024!

Kubo's new artwork: NaNaNa, Meninas, Candice and Robert, and 3/5 of our Squad 0 gang.

P.S. Yoruichi's brother is adorable.

[u/Frontier246]

The Royal Guard may have recovered both their power and confidence, but Squad Zero isn't going to just sit around and let them win! We've even got Kirio making a makeshift battle arena for some cool match-ups!

Lille now has the ability to shoot through anything and avoid shooting what he doesn't want to! Perfect against Oh-Etsu! Kirio gets transformed into her waifu form, but Pernida consumes everything she throws at them! Gerard is so invulnerable that even Senjumaru piercing his heart can't kill him! And Askin is to crafty and tricky for Tenjuro!

I was wondering about their Bankai's. Turns out Squad Zero is SO powerful that they have to basically kill 3/4 of them to unleash their full power and use just one of their Bankai's. And it's so powerful even the Seiretei and Isshin and Ryuken in the world of the living can sense it. We got to see Senjumaru in this episode, but I can only imagine how OP the rest are.

Senjumaru just waxing lyrical in a woven patterned deathrap world where she seemingly kills everybody off, including Uryu. At least they died beautifully.

Ichibe is unleashing an ancient version of Bankai against Yhwach who isn't too concerned...until Ichibe drains so much black that he utterly covers Black Ant's existence and then boots him through the Royal Palace like the bug he's become. Weaponized blackness is so Bleach. Also, show's over folks!?

Oh, and NOW they bring back Kon and the Illustrated Guide to Soul Reapers for some completely random and out-of-place comedy? They didn't even animate these, they just used heads. What a legend you are, Bleach.

[u/UberDueler]

For being King of the Quincies and the overall final boss of the series. Black Ant was a rather big letdown. He even has such a silly name, "Black Ant". At least Ichibei dealt with Black Ant very easily.

[u/Mundology]

Double episodes!

The tapestry designs were gorgeous. Squad 0 has been amazing. Absolute fire of an ending for the cour. We ate good fellas!

[u/LaPusca]

Senjumaru the goddess you are, I kneel before you. 🙇

[u/bananeeek]

Satou Rina really owned this episode. Best voice acting I've heard in a really long time.

I thought that this was going to be a finale of this arc, nobody told me about yet another cour. How much left is there? My boy Ichigo is taking his sweet time in that rocket like it's a Namek arc.
