    Stunning visuals!

    The team working on this, seems to have a burning desire to make every single scene and moment look as amazing as possible! Its like average is not good enough, no we have to make it look absolutely incredible!

    This episode got back into the action with stunning fights and a nice progession of the plot! Things are set in motion and I am so excited to see how all this unfolds!

    The fights in particular were the highlight, cause not only were the animation as incredible as this show promisses but it also gave us some great character moments!

    Bleach cour 3 is not slowing down, and is not done showing us just how good everything can look!

    A great fight 🔥 its was incredible

    When you see this episode you will say Renji was one of the best Shinigami characters on Bleach and trust me whoever votes this episode 9/10 or less is stupid because the fights story writing and drawing were great If you want to convince someone to watch Bleach make them watch this episode and believe me they will watch Bleach in its entirety When you see this episode you will say Renji was one of the best Shinigami characters on Bleach and trust me whoever votes this episode 9/10 or less is stupid because the fights story writing and drawing were great If you want to convince someone to watch Bleach make them watch this episode and believe me they will watch Bleach in its entirety.

    GREAT!

    I loved this chapter and I'm not surprised, I won't give any spoilers so you can enjoy how beautiful this chapter is. I love the soundtrack and the beautiful touch they give to the work and once again, as always, I'm already looking forward to next Saturday to continue enjoying Bleach to the fullest.

    So I will always give all my support for this work, because I couldn't be happier, and many thanks to Uncle Kubo for creating a beautiful work and being able to supervise this season, because I did notice more that they are adding many parts that are not in the manga and it is always appreciated.

    Peakkkkkkk

    First of animation is looking sooooooo much better. The girls peak the Choreography peak grimmjow peak. Renji the goat don't care what anyone says he pulled rukia. Hopefully the animation just keeps getting better, especially since we're going to start seeing just fight from now on. Bleach is peak cant say that enough. Will never stop saying it. And dang again short on my words so just improvising from now not that I can't just keep saying good things about bleach but it's just not how my thought process works to be honest. I'm more a question answerer dunno if that's a word but I'm putting it. Free Palestine btw.

    3x8 Gate of the sun

    Acting: 9/10 Pace: 10/10 Story: 10/10 Writing: 8/10 Animation: 10/10 End: 10/10

    All the Renji fans will be almost happy about this episode.

    With the episodes almost having fully aired, the soul reapers have gone to the true world castle in order to phase yhwach and stop his plan of destroying the 3 worlds. The story progression is back on track with all the teams spreading out to fight the enemy in seperate places while trying to get to the castle where yhwach currently is.

    This episode is focused on Shunsui's group/team facing LIlle barro and Uryu and a bit of ichigo's team which faces Askin. There is a lot of fighting with top level animation.

    Not getting into any spoilers, this is an interesting episode worth watching with a lot more to happen. It mixes comedy with the plot perfectly adding that small needed bit of fun and fair amount of seriousness to the story. My rating for this episode is a 10/10 but i expected more from everything that i heard about it.
