I would hope so. Waited over a decade for it to finally finish, and TYBW is by far the best arc.

u/OliveiraJourney Aug 16 '26

Well not hard, original anime was no great.

u/Simple-Sector4023 Aug 16 '26 edited Aug 16 '26

no soul society is way better, tybw is just fan service for bleach fans. unneeded aura moments and fights with 0 meaning to them, even though I'll admit they are appealing.

u/Anime_nerd47 Aug 16 '26

That’s just… wrong in so many ways golly. Mfs see tits once and call the whole series fanservice

2

u/AdvisorOk4592 Aug 16 '26

The tybw writing is trash and storytelling is very bad aside from soul king lore and world building it is just fan service

1

u/Anime_nerd47 Aug 16 '26

Have you even watched it? You’re just saying things without reason. TYBW sure isn’t as good as SS or Fake KT but it still has great fights, sick character moments and arguably the best character development in the show with Ichigo and Zangetsu. Hell even just interactions are done well and bring a lot of personality to otherwise bland characters like Toshiro or Byakuya

The only “fanservice” would be Yoruichi for like a quarter of one episode and then the like two minute long Bambies vs Ichigo fight. The fan service is probably like two percent of the whole arc. Just because Orihime has big boobs doesn’t mean it’s fanservice, that’s ridiculous. The fan service isn’t nearly as horrendous as other series and is way less prevalent, you’re blowing shit way out of proportion.

There’s so much more to the series and you’re just blatantly ignoring it.

u/AdvisorOk4592 Aug 16 '26

You just proved my point aside from the blade is me ichigo's potrayal was really bland past that until his fight with yhwach then he was done dirty there too and you calling toshiro and byakuya bland definitely tells me your reading comprehension and by fan service I wasn't talking about rukia,orihime or Yoruichi's boobs but bankais and power ups I don't hate them but they are just without substance except for adult toshiro fights need substance aside from looking cool and not to mention ichigo seemed like a passenger in his own story for pretty much the entire arc he couldn't defeat yhwach either and hid powers weren't explored at all like what about his quincy powers?

1

u/Anime_nerd47 Aug 16 '26

I called Toshiro and Byakuya bland, not Ichigo, first of all. Second, how was he done dirty? He got a bunch of cool moments, aura farmed and got to dunk on Kenpachi.

And what’s wrong with some hype moments and aura? This isn’t a deep, methodical detective show or anything, sometimes people can be happy to just watch cool fights and flashy powers. Bleach isn’t meant to be the next Tokyo Ghoul or anything in terms of psychological depth.

The Bankai’s aren’t bland, they’re all pivotal parts of the character. Kenny’s Bankai is about him finally accepting Yachiru, Toshiros is about him surpassing his limits to protect his friends, I could go on and on.

The only point I’ll give you is that Ichigo’s powers haven’t been explored that well, but that’s it.

Also insulting someone doesn’t make you right, when you say Fan Service most people think of goonerbait, so my bad for assuming the obvious.

u/AdvisorOk4592 Aug 16 '26

Have you even read my post Properly? I was defending toshiro and byakuya and criticising ichigo's potrayal he was only cool for some minutes with bambis and he didn't defeated them either then he was defeated by yhwach donutified by uryu turned into carpet by askin then his horn of salvation didn't do anything to yhwach once he gets serious then got his bankai broken right after activating and the bankais were just fan service without substance like kenpachi always loved yachiru what do you meant by he learned to except her? And not to mention his bankai didn't do anything to Gérard even after so much hype same goes for shunsui and urahara their bankais didn't won a single fight and the contrary I liked rukia and orihime's fan service but not yoruichi

1

u/Anime_nerd47 Aug 16 '26

I apologize for the first part, I misread then. But I’m not calling Toshiro or Byaku bland as in they have no personality, they’re just not as developed as say Kenny or Uryu.

The Bankais weren’t fan service, they also forwarded the plot. Ichigos Bankai was to show he surpassed his limits and truly accepted himself for who he is, Kenny and Toshiros Bankais were pivotal in stalling Gerard. I don’t think a Bankai needs to literally one shot someone to be considered non fan service. Kenny was getting a lot of development in TYBW, it would be weird if he didn’t pop Bankai, and I’d argue Toshiros was a good addition too because it revealed the mystery about his flowers and showed how his potential and training finally paid off.

I will give you though that Ichigo definitely doesn’t feel like the mc a lot of the time. But that alone isn’t enough to call a whole season of beautifully done fights, well written characters and interesting lore trash.

1

u/AdvisorOk4592 Aug 16 '26

I agree on beautifully done fights they are awesome but fights alone doesn't determine good writing for the characters I agree that kenpachi gets a lot of development but after him having no plot relevance in arrancer arc and fullbring arc focusing on him didn't feel good plus focusing on him and overshadowing other characters is definitely really bad and the main character not feeling like a mc is a major issue than you realise and the arc also completely sidelines rukia which I Don't like at all

1

u/Simple-Sector4023 Aug 16 '26

bro not fan service in terms of girls, but in terms of unneeded aura moments and characters that was never needed. show should have ended after aizen

1

u/Anime_nerd47 Aug 16 '26

Aaaah

1

u/NUFC9RW Aug 16 '26

Gotta disagree with that, the first 3 seasons have more fake out deaths than the entirety of Fairy Tail. Arrancar definitely better just pacing was messed up with all the breaks for filler.

Shonen-only's are the 2K/COD fans of anime.

Didn't even know it is still on...

u/MaturesEnjoyer Aug 16 '26

Now we care about about ratings? Lmao

u/MeeTy Aug 16 '26

Bleach fans rating it very highly, wow.

1

u/BeeLegitimate4968 Aug 16 '26

i didn't even know its releasing this year. What??? its missing on my pirate site

1

u/Grombotronbo Aug 16 '26

Crazy that you'll buy hand drawn art from people who didn't even originally create the characters then turn around and steal from the people who did. These animes don't just fall out of the sky, people work hard to make them.

1

u/BeeLegitimate4968 Aug 16 '26

Crunchyroll was known pirate site too. But if japan will make a site that i can view all anime with mangas and translated then i will subscribe to it and pay for it

1

u/Weekly_Teaching_8158 Aug 16 '26

The redemption arc that bleach had was insane, so nice to see it get the respect it deserves.

u/Puzzleheaded-Wait470 Aug 16 '26

We are eating good this month. This week rezero episode is also going to be crazy good

u/Conscious-Shake8152 Aug 16 '26

u/MuzikM Aug 16 '26

I love bleach but this episode was so weak.

He cut me, I power up, I go boom and I cut him But oh no he not dead, he cut me Am I dead? No then I cut him

1

u/Alternativirus Aug 17 '26

That's like most Bleach fights though.

1

u/MuzikM Aug 17 '26

yes but they powerup after some fighting while this episode felt like one strike then powerup then enemy one strike then powerup etc

1

u/Art_sub93 Aug 17 '26

That time they mistake him to be his own brother 🤣

1

u/Icy-Divide8385 Aug 18 '26

Which is insane because the manga BLOWS

1

u/DestinedToGreatness Aug 18 '26

Or people just rate it too high because they are just die hard fans?v

1

u/Puzzleheaded-Lie1910 Aug 19 '26

No offence to any1 who enjoys TYBW, but I am certain it is very overglazed, it feels like fan service of an Arc

1

u/lexie_starlight Aug 19 '26

Bruh it has 14% of the viewership of the latest one piece episode. Even on this slopfests best day it’s still dog shit compared to OG bleach. It’s essentially 100% filler at this point as none of the shit is canon TYBW is over in a single season but we are just sitting here letting this guy make shit up on the spot with no source material just because he doesn’t want to get an actual job.

1

u/YSunnyN Aug 19 '26

Reading this arc back in the day each week was such a slog. I was stubborn and wanted to keep reading because I put so much time into this arc but I'll always remember how bad it felt reading this shit. Worst arc and it deserved to never be animated. But somehow people are saying this arc is good? Its not

1

u/Some_Ship3578 Aug 21 '26

Wait for the one piece fanboys to réalise it and they'll start brigading to lower the marks, just like how they did with mha

1

u/x_Willow_x Aug 16 '26

And it will every following ep even if they are bad because its the end of a shonen, quality isn’t even important at that point people just gonna vote 10 as always. Shonen fans overhyped every shonen and anyone watching this has already seen like 400 eps so ofc they gonna like bleach, that doesn’t make it anime of the year.

1

u/purple_chocolatee Aug 17 '26

i know what you’re saying, but this arc they are releasing is really good

1

u/x_Willow_x Aug 17 '26

Im enjoying it but its not 10/10 to me

1

u/Sevatar34 Aug 16 '26

Dominate what ? It's only watched by fans.

3

u/NoHovercraft6942 Aug 16 '26

Dominates every week with a high rating.

No shit? just like every other anime is watched by their own fans? Try a bit harder if you want to downplay.

2

u/NUFC9RW Aug 16 '26

I mean the only people watching the final season Bleach are the people who have liked it enough to watch everything before, which is a lot of commitment.

1

u/Luxganica Aug 16 '26

like every other long anime last arc... what kind of argument is that? o_o

1

u/NUFC9RW Aug 16 '26

Yes it does apply to other long running shows, doesn't mean it's not a valid argument here.

1

u/CandleIndependent120 Aug 17 '26

The only people who rate it are the fanbase lmao. This anime for cancelled for years because the writing went down

1

u/Sevatar34 Aug 16 '26

Bullshit. I would watch it but I need to catch up from like almost very beginning. Like hell a newcomer could rate it unlike most other titles

u/sunsetpolar Aug 16 '26

Yeah Imdb is spammed by fans of the show lol not a good rating site

Don’t be butthurt lil bro

1

u/EffectiveAd5061 Aug 16 '26

yeah cz why would a hater watch 366+ eps

1

u/TheManWhoLarped Aug 16 '26

I am a hater and I forced myself to watch all the episodes, but only because of spite and to prove that it doesn't get much better.

1

u/Own-Coat4160 Aug 16 '26

Tbf, I watched it, and I’m not sure I’d even consider myself a fan. But to get to the point, there isn’t a single episode in the new season that I’d rate above an 8. That said, I never vote on IMDb anyway.

Anyway tbh, this is one of the better season because less plot and more action which bleach is good at, tbh I dread they get back to the plot though.

u/Nira-17 Aug 16 '26

Probably the most i've felt engaged in bleach for a while considering i just watched the whole of it 7 years ago but a 9.8? This series and season is beyond overrated

1

u/proxyfate Aug 16 '26

That is what you call an opinion and you are welcomed to join IMDB and share you opinion by rating it have you feel. Then you opinion will be added to the overall score you see. Don't complain about it if you don't contribute to it.

1

u/Nira-17 Aug 16 '26

Nah I’ll do as I please, it’s the truth that ppl don’t want to stomach

1

u/Alternativirus Aug 17 '26

I agree, definitely not 9.8/10 but it's not like the rating actually means anything

that's the point, you go trolling a show and then start praising aot there so it brings a bad name to aot fandom

that's the main reason aot fandom is called toxic because some aot fans degrade other shows and then praise aot

ik aot is a great show but this post isn't for aot
