This week's episode of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War shifts away from the high-octane battle sequences of previous episodes, offering a more story-driven installment that sets the stage for upcoming conflicts. Several long-anticipated character returns take place, adding layers of anticipation for the battles yet to come this season.

In terms of animation, the quality noticeably heightens whenever the camera focuses on Aizen, bringing a cinematic feel to his scenes. CGI usage remains subtle and effective, enhancing rather than detracting from the overall visual experience.

We see that some manga scenes, which ideally belonged in previous episodes, have been shifted to this one. This week's anime-exclusive scenes, though fewer than in previous episodes, are nonetheless well-executed and contribute meaningfully to the episode.

Overall, this season continues to maintain an impressively high standard, and it's safe to say that all Bleach fans are eagerly awaiting next week's episode.

A legendary episode of animation, drawing and especially dialogues. As we know, Aizen is the best character in Shounen in terms of dialogues and also the best villain. His appearance was simply the height of magnificence. In short, if you did not give episode 10, then you hate Bleach. In short, Well, as we know, in the recent period, that is, in the last number of years, the number of haters of this legendary show has increased. As is known, every successful work must have critics and haters. We go back to Aizen Sosuke's technique, which was already legendary and the studio was creative, but Kubo's manga from 10 years ago was legendary enough to become famous worldwide 10 years before its release.

Once again, Bleach shows that it does not need action or fighting to be great! An episode with no action can be just as great, as those with, thanks to its incredible storytelling, development and moments that will make you more excited and hyped, than ever for what is to come!

I dont think it will be a secret, who shows up in this episode, and man.. it did not disapoint! I was on board, and left craving for what is to come!

The pacing was also very good this time around, with a great progression in the story, as well as wraping up things from previous episodes!

After all we have seen, this episode shows.. that the best is yet to come!

Acting: 9.5/10 Pace: 10/10 Story: 10/10 Animation: 10/10 End: 10/10

Without spoiling anything, by far the best episode this cour so far. In this episode there isnt an fighting or other kind of action going but instead we have an episode fully focused on the aftermath from previous one and an update to where the previous cour left off which hadnt been picked up yet in those previous episodes. A character is re-introduced after a long waiting. Also lets not forget to mention that thiss episode fixes the pace problem of the last 4 episodes.

! Small spoilers below !

The most hyped up scene and best scene by far was Aizen's hado 90. The animation was done perfectly, and the way they showcase aizen at the start is also amazing

The worst executed part of this episode in my opinion is how when aizen does his hado 90 all the captains/lieutenants how they go back to the r&d and suddently back at the battle field without animating a single frame of them doing it just happening in a few seconds.
