Friend

"Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War" Episode 12 of Core 3 masterfully delves into the complex backstory of Jugram Haschwalth and Bazz-B, offering a poignant narrative that enriches the series' depth. The episode's exceptional art direction and fluid animation bring their history to life, seamlessly intertwining past and present to highlight the evolution of their relationship. Notably, the depiction of Yhwach's assault on Bazz-B's family adds a visceral layer to Bazz-B's motivations, enhancing audience empathy. The climactic battle between Jugram and Bazz-B is both emotionally charged and visually stunning, showcasing Studio Pierrot's commitment to quality. This episode not only provides a cinematic experience but also sets a new benchmark for character development within the series.

This episode was absolutely perfect! I had been eagerly waiting to see the battle between Jugram and Bazz-B. Jugram has always been a mysterious character, but in this episode we witnessed his childhood and his friendship with Bazz B.

While some might criticize the focus on a side character's backstory, I believe such moments are essential for a show like Bleach, much like Naruto and One Piece. These stories add depth and make the world feel richer.

The animation was as stunning and fluid as always, and the music and sound effects perfectly complemented the visuals, enhancing the emotional impact.

This episode was not just about action; it was deeply emotional and heartwarming, showcasing the complexity of relationships and choices. For me, it absolutely deserves a perfect 10/10 rating.

It was absolutely pinnacle of fiction both story wise and in terms of animation. The execution was perfect, Tsuru and Dali Chen gave us the best episode of this cour and Yuki Sato absolutely cooked with all those amazing cuts. I could not see the episode being better. PEAK FICTION. This is not the end of the fight, or should I say not the end of this moment and their friendship. We'll see some more in future episodes and Jugram's conclusion.

All the Yhwach scenes were just outwardly with One True Messiah and Hell's Die For Our Sins OSTs. The compositing was as goof as Yamamoto vs Yhwach. It's easily a 10/10 episode.

Jugo and Bazz spent their childhood together, but their paths diverged once they met Yhwach. They now stand against each other as enemies, but what's truly in their hearts? Meanwhile, Kenpachi Zaraki and Mayuri Kurotsuchi face off against the weirdest Quincy yet! Given Bazz-B's enduring popularity and "Friend's" strong reception among manga readers, expectations were understandably high for his animated duel against his childhood friend, Jugram Haschwalth. The fact that Thousand-Year Blood War's anime has been consistently good only made fans' hope even higher. Fortunately, "Friend"completely blew all expectations away. Regardless of the quality of Part 3 - The Conflict's coming finale is, "Friend" is easily one of the best episodes in both the cour and.

This is once again one of those episodes that shows that Thousand Year Blood War can pull off some amazibg writting and character depth, just as much as they can pull of some amazing fights... and this episode gives us both!

This episode really added another Layer to The villains, Quincies, but mostly Bazz B! Its an achievement to make me care and resonate this much with a character in just half an episode! I understood his hatred! His motivations and his actions way more than I thought I would!

The way it cuts between past and present t to show the reason behind each action was perfect! The animation was also incredible as if the creators still wanna surprise me!

In the end I was actually in tears after an episode that turned out way better than I thought!
