Something interesting to note, Bazz’s final move Burning Full Fingers, can be read as BFF. In his poem, all the prior Burner Fingers represent something, but the last one is tied to his friendship with Jugram.
Sternritter have a letter on their souls that Yhwach can see and bring out the powers of. Thus granting a schrift. The Heat: Haschwalth The Balance: Bazzard Kubo confirmed btw.
@UtopiansDream No I connected each schrift with the name of the other character. Bazz B has the Heat, which comes from Haschwalth Haschwalth has the Balance, which comes from Bazz B
The sword used to kill Bazz was from his own house, the last words from Jugo to him were his full name, therefore Haschwalt severing their ties completely. Also is probably that Haschwalt did have parents, but like Bazz said, a quincy without powers would be let to die as a failure. And another similarity between them and Uryu/Ichigo is that one was treated like a traitor, but while Bazz got great ressentment against Jugo, Ichigo tried to understand Ishida
I didn't think about the comparisons between Bazz/Jugo and Ichigo/Uryu but that's interesting. Obviously there are differences but it does feel a bit like history repeating itself
[Thoughts][Lotta reading lol sorry, just an ep that I have so many thought about] - Haschwalth obviously dealt with physical abuse from his Uncle, but with the scene and voices here in the anime it's believed that he’s also dealing with sexual abuse. The lines “You can’t do anything without me” and how twisted the Uncle’s voice became when he said “my precious Jugo” seems to suggest as much. This reality certainly plays a role in Haschwalth's need to feel useful or wanted without circumstance. - We learned a few things from Kluboutside, for example Bazz-B’s and Haschwalths Schrifts are a reference to their friendship. Bazz-B has H and Haschwalth has B. We also know that those Schrifts are based on trauma’s and we see here that Bazz-B’s clan was burned down. (Additionally this battle was eluded too when Haschwalth was caught in Senjumaru’s Bankai) - What’s interesting about Bazz-B and Hascwalth is that though Bazz-B proclaims that the revenge is for both of them, we never hear it from Hascwalth himself. It’s likely that Hascwalth actually had little issue with what happened given that he was being abused, but he was simply trying to help the only living person he cared for however he could, cause he wanted to be useful. - As you noted, this friendship was always unfortunately built upon weak foundations despite that fact that they did care for each other. A point that always stood out to me was how Jugram said from the start that he didn't like being called Jugo (obviously cause that's what his abuser called him), but Bazz-B never stopped. This occurs because despite how much they cared for each other, neither properly took the time to understand the other. The relationship wasn't made on equal footing, For Bazz-B, Jugram was someone he was helping and bringing along his adventure and to Jugram, Bazz-B was a Bandaid for his Trauma. True Friends don't only help or care for one another, they must also put in the work to try and understand each other. - “Worth” is a Major theme here between these two friends, even when Bazz-B believes that Haschwalth has no worth in regards to getting revenge he still chooses to keep him by his side, but the reality remains that he doesn’t need Haschwalth, but with Yhwach’s arrival Bazz-B is made aware that the roles were actually reversed. This realization hurts Bazz-B’s pride and the way he looks at Haschwalth is the nail in the coffin, Jugram already felt he had little purpose, the only link chaining them together was the believed care for one another. The issue is that Haschwalth has a warped understanding of worth and relationships due to his abuse, for him “worth” is to be wanted and needed and a relationship must result in something being gained. Regardless, In this moment Jugram began to feel that Bazz-B no longer wanted, needed or cared him, and here you have Yhwach offering Jugram the exact opposite. [Personally I believe Yhwach used his foresight to manipulate this situation into happening, he seemed to know the best words to used and suspiciously let Bazz-B live when he destroyed his entire family] - Sidenote: Kubo tends to make a duo with this opposing dynamic every major arc, and they always get the chance to fight. Byakuya/Renji, Ulquiorra/Grimmjow, and Haschwalth/Bazz-B - Sidenote 2: I feel as viewers we are meant to think of worth and how people use it, how it affects the relationships between people, especially Yhwach and his followers or Ichigo and Uryu.

That's both really cute and heartbreaking given how this episode went
Sternritter have a letter on their souls that Yhwach can see and bring out the powers of. Thus granting a schrift.
The Heat: Haschwalth
The Balance: Bazzard
Kubo confirmed btw.
That's pretty cool actually
You confused them. Haschwalth is Balance and Bazz B is Heat.
@UtopiansDream No I connected each schrift with the name of the other character.
Bazz B has the Heat, which comes from Haschwalth
Haschwalth has the Balance, which comes from Bazz B
The sword used to kill Bazz was from his own house, the last words from Jugo to him were his full name, therefore Haschwalt severing their ties completely.

Why arms?
Bcoz mostly of the time they uses "arm" to attack.
So it's logical to amputate your opponent to prevent an attack.
Not the same dislike for legs though that would have a similar effect
I will always love Bleach's ability to make you feel for (some of) the bad guys and continually blur the lines between good and evil.
