Friend

This was just an absolutely phenomenal episode. It is insane how they managed to cram such great storytelling and animation quality into a 26-minute video, even less with the intro and outro; making me feel the same emotions as watching a movie. This episode did a great job of explaining the enemies' motivations, in this case, Haschwalth and Bazz-B. By showing us why they are fighting for Yhwach's cause and mixing their backstories with the fight scenes, it allows us to grow a connection with them. Overall, this episode masterfully combines storytelling and animation, making it a standout in the season. It not only entertains but also deepens our understanding of these characters and their motivations, leaving us waiting eagerly for what's next.

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.

"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.

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.

I'm not glazing here, genuinely speaking it was one of the most beautiful ep I had ever seen. The emotions the dialogues everything was so perfect. It was so emotional I'm still not recovering from it. I love how bleach always provides subtle hints instead of very vivid ones, those who do not pay attention won't ever get it but those who do, it stings like hell. Anybody would interpret here that jugo didn't care abt bazz and was very prideful of his position but the subtle hints given there such as when jugo was shaking whilst climbing the stairs and his eyes all covered with here, u get a doubt if he was sad about it but u r not sure. But at the end of the ep Jugram's poem proved that he felt pain.
