This is the second filler episode of the series, and is thankfully a solitary one, providing a break from the main storyline, until it returns for the following episode. It follows pretty much the same premise as the first filler, Episode 33, as we head back to Karakura Town, where we find that the ragtagContinueContinue reading “Bleach Recap 2020, Episode 50 – Karakura Heroes Return”

Bleach Recap 2020, Ep. 48 – No Time Left: Rukia’s Impending Execution

This episode, the battle between two extemely powerful and dangerous opponents begins, after the accusations being made via Aizen’s letter were revealed last episode. Although he looks like no cold-blooded murderer, Toshiro Hitsugaya was surprisingly the one accused of  Aizen’s assassination, and not Gin Ichimaru, as anticipated, and well, he’s looking pretty damn murderous atContinueContinue reading “Bleach Recap 2020, Ep. 48 – No Time Left: Rukia’s Impending Execution”

‘Captain Aizen… the one who killed you is…’ So what exactly is in the mysterious letter that Aizen wrote to Momo?  Whatever it is, it has the potential to even further heighten the inner conflict, the various suspicions and misunderstandings pervading the Soul Society at present, which threatens to have the organisation teetering at itsContinueContinue reading “Bleach Recap 2020, Ep. 47 – The Accusations of Aizen”

Bleach Recap 2020, Ep. 46 – Momo’s Memories: The Shinigami Academy

With many of the show’s Shinigami characters now either undergoing medical treatment for, or recovering from serious injuries, or being detained owing to some transgression, it makes sense that some of them are now undergoing periods of reflection, especially with most of the Ryoka now being held and accounted for, and a high-profile murder mysteryContinueContinue reading “Bleach Recap 2020, Ep. 46 – Momo’s Memories: The Shinigami Academy”

‘Don’t go parading your creepy sense of justice around here.’Mayuri Kurotsuchi This episode, we encounter one of the most disturbingly amoral and sadistic characters in the Gotei 13, and probably in all of Bleach.
