    Kenpachi was basically set up to fail in the final arc because his entire thing is just brute force so him getting shikai or bankai is literally just super Saiyan level power boosts (Kaioken if you want given how bad he fucks himself up with it). And then you throw in what happens with Yachiru and it just sucks.

    Although they do give you the skip credits button at the halfway point.

    Speaking as someone who was a big Bleach fan at some point...

    I really can't say I'm excited for this.

    The Thousand Year arc was terrible, rushed and dragged at the same time and I hated the ending. I also didn't like how the medical captain got put on the bus so Kenpachi could get a powerup as she was one of my favorites.

    I honestly believed the anime as is ended on a better note and would only be interested in this with some heavy...heavy reworks.

    Hey everyone! After a fairly long dry spell, I ended up catching up on some anime recently. I started with the first season of Mob Psycho 100, which I enjoyed a lot, though I liked the comedic first half more than the second, when it went all shonen-y.
    Though I do appreciate how they then subverted that when Reigen came back into the story.
    How was season 2?

    I then wrapped up the second half of Carole and Tuesday.
    Okay, I know that the plot got pretty nonsense near the end and that the ending was basically anime "We Are the World," but I still teared up at it. I could use a break from being cynical anyway.

    Mob Psycho 100 Season 2 is extremely good, though its second half is, again, more shonen-y.

    Bleach's final arc starts out with a good idea. "Remember that whole faction the good guys EXTERMINATED in the backstory? Some survived and they're justifiably pissed!" Yeah, that's a good idea. But then instead of the fight being about the morality of the factions and in some way resolving or changing the world system (something that Naruto is all about) it's instead about "these guys have literally unbeatable high numbers AND they get to steal all your numbers. So every character has to learn a new special move to beat the new numbers. ... yup, that's all this is going to be."

    Fuck, now i want to see Soul Societry vs terrorist cell attacks afterlife for revenge over the whole "Genocide" thing.

    Like there's probably a really good story (that you would have to navigate REAL CAREFULLY) in there.

    Instead of "We genocided them, but also we apparently missed massive amounts of them and they're super strong and really nasty which is sending some very mixed messages here!

    I did like the bearded my sword is a brush guy though, even if he got jobbed hard

    The whole reason they killed the Quincy clan is because Quincy stuff obliterates souls instead of purifying them, which was causing massive imbalance in the cycle, and when the Shinigami tried to ask them to stop with the whole "potentially upending the world" stuff they refused and had to be stopped by force.

    None of that came through in the final arc.

    Didn’t the soul society also deal with the situation with some serious scumbag tactics as well?

    Stuff like “oh, no, we got to the site of that massive Hollow attack far to late to keep them from overwhelming and eating that family of Quincies that called for our help! If only we’d been faster.”
    Or “What? No, I don’t know where Captain Mad Scientist was yesterday. I’m sure he wasn’t out kidnapping Quincies to experiment on; that would be wrong.”

    Granted, it was Uryu telling the story, but to hear him tell it, the Quincies were the ones who offered to work with the soul reapers, who in turn refused and adopted a zero-tolerance attitude to the Quincies fighting any hollows at all, even in a cooperative effort with the reapers.

    Considering Soul Society had Aizen and the Mad Scientist and so on active at the time, it would have been excessively easy to muddy the waters and make both sides wrong for the final arc. The final villain should have been someone the age of Ichigo's dad who witnessed the massacre when he was Ichigo's age. Do a backstory arc on THAT and delete the confusing and terrible one about Ichigo's TRUE PARENTS (dun dun dun) instead. And stop making your shonen hero God's son, it should not have to be explained how that ruins their arc.

    ywach was the son of the soul king and had serious daddy issues, but central46 (basically soul society congress) ordered quincies be massacred for being giant shitheads

    The gladiator fights were legit dope though. It's more like all of Big Mom stuff that was boring.
