in one of kubo's Q&A he revealed that james the little guy is the holder of the schrifit letter S the superstar and mask is the embodiment of his ideal here. Q185: I would like to know more about the relationship between Mask de Masculine and James. Going off of Yhwach's comment about James having died, would it be correct to assume that James is the real body whereas Masculine is just a fictitious form of his? A185: James is the real one while Masculine is the embodiment of his ideal hero. Goated reaction as always bro.
Literally what i thought. I immediately knew that the voice i was graced by hearing belonged to none other than Hazel Fernandes, but on a new ost. My mind raced to find a fitting joke name. The first that my two braincells could think of: Number 2. But alas, someone wrote the comment before me.
As a manga reader i think they are doing a very well justice in the anime and i would also say this is the first big fight in this part, with ep 20 being the yama level fight
The animation of this episode was just to amazing. Thank god Renji has leveled up from getting clapped to clapping cheeks. He even got his own Number 1 style theme song, he's feeling it
About Shinji, Kensei and Rose not using their hollwfication, I have 3 reasons: Reason 1: They can only maintain their hollow mask for 3 minutes at a time, and it's really taxing in terms of stamina. With the situation being what it is, they most certainly expect to fight more than just one Sternritter, and were keeping it for when it would be an absolute necessity, then simply got wrecked before even having the chance to use it. Reason 2: This one is for Shinji and Rose. They are fully "special ability" oriented, in other words as long as their abilities works on the opponent, more power is useless to them. Reason 3: This one is admittedly speculation. As said in reason 1, they have pretty limited time for the hollow mask, and it's taxing in terms of stamina. A bankai is also pretty taxing in terms of stamina, it's not hollow mask level in that aspect but still, and the only exception among bankais is Tensa Zangetsu, as Ichigo was shown to be able to stay in bankai for pronloged periods of time. My point here is, putting something extremely stamina taxing on top of something already somewhat taxing probably isn't a good idea. It's entirely plausible that for those 3, using the hollow mask on top of the bankai is simply too detrimental compared to the advantages it gives.
Another incredible foreshadowing. Think about it. We have ONLY seen the snake part of renjis bankai. Besides the coat thing he wears (which symbolizes the absolute minimum amount of power showing), where has the baboon part been??? It was held back
This is so true and awesome. When we first saw Renji’s Zanpakuto spirit in the Soul Society when he was in jail it was a Baboon with a snake tail. It was right in front of us the whole time!
@@DefinitivelyZach Another detail is his previous Bankai name was "Hihio", but as Ichibe said that is only part of the Bankai. Now we know the true meaning of Hihio was an attack from the baboon arm. It also makes sense that his previous Bankai was large b/c of this. Since he was calling out his Bankai as the Baboon arm it came out large and malformed since he was kind of forcing out the Snake improperly. Also the way he used it was like an extension of his arm (I think he even said this in the OG anime, but I may have misremembered) just like how he is now using Hihio as an extension of his arm, except now he's not using the Snake in the Baboon's technique. I love how things are foreshadowed and connect together in Bleach.
I will not confirm anything nor spoil anything with Ichigo or Rukia or any other character or thing, but Zach really understands his anime properly and comes up with really good theories. And yes, even manga readers wonder why they didn't use their hollow mask. Speculations are that they cannot use it, but then we can also argue... dude you're gon die, shouldn't you use it? BUT HEY WE GOT WENJI
I waas just thinking what if in the laast oabel of the manga when ichigo calls orihime to watch the movie with them, for the whole time his eyes were hidden and then in the last page he look up and his eyes are like soul king (the wierd star shape pupil). Man it would be both chilling and thrilling
11:14 That's his shikai, I think. When he activated in the past to save Hisagi, his zanpakutō changed from sword to knife. Curiously, pre-timeskip he seemed to be always in shikai - except when he went bankai against Wonderweiss. But here he seems to have a sword on his belt again while blocking Mask's foot.
I’m really late to this reaction which is unusual for me because I was on vacay. Just wanted to point out that your theories are ultra interesting. Not gonna be an a-hole to spoil anything.
about bambieta, there's some characters who can take her down: rukia, renji, yoruichi, zaraki, shunsui, ichigo ofc, byakuya will be a good match for her and ukitake too he can counter her as well
So, essentially 'James' and 'Mask' are two parts of the same whole. So long as Mask exists, James can keep returning to cheer him on; so long as James exists, his cheers can heal and further empower Mask. The way I view it as working is that the Reishii connection between them maintains both sides of the existence, with Mask using his Quincy abilities to form James and then using James to fuel his strength. He was pushed so far and James had taken so much damage that the incoming Reishii was not able to compensate for the amount of Reishii Mask was forced to use. That's why Mask didn't reform James right away... he needed all that Reishii to fight Renji. So, when Renji uses his Bankai here, he completely destroys the last of the Reishii Mask managed to gather and his body withered away. Hence "he burned himself out". Also, to note, Mask IS James. There is debate on whether the child or the adult is his 'true' body and which is the Reishii construct. My belief is that James represents Mask as who he is, a person that's not particularly strong but looks up to 'Superheroes', people capable of going beyond limits. Mask is James as what he want to be, the very Superhero that James can look up to. It's paralleling the whole era of WWF Wrestling, with Hulk Hogan, Ultimate Warrior, and Randy Savage, because a lot of children looked up to those characters in the same way James looks up to Mask.
both rukia and renji got the royal palace gears on as well they were both trained in the soul palace so both absorbed super reishi so i think thats why hes so strong
19:56 I mentioned this on Patreon, but I will mention it here as well. There may be some minor grammatical and other errors, but I believe it is approximately correct. ■卍解『金沙羅舞踏団』(Bankai:KinsharaButōdan) Bankai of the zanpakuto "Kinshara" owned by Rōjūrō Otoribashi, the captain of the Gotei Thirteen Squad Three. Upon activation of the bankai, the Kinshara transforms from a golden whip into a cordwork of sorts, transforming into a dance troupe of over a dozen dancers and the hand that commands them. The dance troupe under Rōjūrō's direction performs various illusions in accordance with the performance. The true nature of these illusions is "music" and sound itself. The deceitful melody steals the hearts of the enemies, and at the same time, the hallucinations are transformed into real events, damaging them and eventually causing death. * Supplementary information, not written on the screen. Kinshara, by the way, is the Cherokee rose, a white rose native to China. It is an old name for it. ■卍解『鐵拳断風』(Bankai:TekkenTachikaze) Bankai of the zanpakuto "Tachikaze" owned by Kensei Muguruma, the captain of the Gotei Thirteen Squad Nine. Tachikaze is a zanpakuto that explodes when it is cut, and "TekkenTachikaze" is a bankai that puts the power of the explosion into the fist. The shape can be changed according to the circumstances of the battle. As long as the fist is in contact with the enemy, it will continue to strike with the power of the explosion at high speed and indefinitely.
I'm thinking next episode will feature Uryu and Ichigo simultaneously learning the same thing. That'd be an interesting way to introduce the next major plot point.
If Renji didn't have this loyalty to Byakuya now he could easily become a captain for a different Squad. Mask destroyed 3 lieutenant level and 2 captain level fighters. Then he went into Vollständig and Renji still killed him. Hot Take but this Renji might be stronger than Pre Unohana Training Kenpachi
yea, but what I know little spoiler: kensei buffed in novel after zombiefication, so technically renji maybe is stronger than him even now, but not with that power difference like in this episode
@@leksobaramidzeSPOILERS!!! Renji still negs most of the captains. He’s definitely Top 6-7 in the Seireitei just behind Tooshiro/Kenpachi, Kyoraku, Byakuya, Mayuri and maybe Rukia, but I’m not sure.
I didn't intend to spoil you on anything, I thought we could share predictions. I'm anime only, just a few huge plot points have been spoiled for me over the past 10 years and I wouldn't dream of sharing those here or on anyone's fresh reaction videos. Rukia and Renji were simply the only ones I thought made sense. They've always been a pair since the end of the SS Arc, and the timing, placement, and presentation made it clear to me that it was them. I'll keep my theories to myself from now on.
Oh I'm not mad then. You can keep giving your predictions you just have to remind me that you're anime only too. I tried to say "if you were a manga reader and spoiled me, then.." And even then I'm only joking. Thank you for commenting again. I appreciate you
My theory on Renji's bankai goes back to what Byakuya said, that bankai are supposed to be trained for 10years and not everyone can do it. But both Renji and Ichigo forced it in like 3 days which turned out to be incomplete as Byakuya said when he fought Renji. So in both cases, I'm sure if they are given 10 years, Renji would have been accepted to this bankai + Ichigo would have figured his true bankai as well. There's also another case of this later in another cour lol.
Actually, it was stated that Renji had already started undergoing the Bankai training prior to him meeting up with Ichigo in the underground training area that he was already at the manifestation of his Zanpaukto it’s just that he finally attained it prior to his fight with Byakuya
@@SerratedSun5841 Byakuya literally said Renji will need 10 years to fully mature his ban kai. That's one o the reasons Byakuya was able to throw Renji off balance during that fight.
@@ASageCalledQ that I understand all I was saying was he didn’t achieve Bankai in only 3 days like he was saying obviously attaining and mastering are different
I feel like very few people know this, they think the visoreds can hollowfy and bankai at the same time which is so not true. Thanks for clarifying on that.
@@gig7932 Ichigo can do it because his hollow is literally his soul reaper power/ his Zanpaktou. Its stated multiple times that using the mask is very very exhausting and using with bankai or even shikai it wouldn't last very long. Eg Mashiro who can maintain her hollowfied form for 15 hours but when in battle it breaks after a few minutes. So in short they can use bankai when hollowfied but it's not a good idea.
while Hihio Zabimaru only showed the snake part, So Oh Zabimaru showed both the Gorilla and the Snake. a very unique power system and was also foreshadowed in the earlier seasons. Kubo never missed.
@@DefinitivelyZach saw it again a few hours ago, the gorilla part is still there, but only for his right arm and shoulders. the snake gave most of the fighting power, maybe around 70%-30% my headcannon would be the snake acknowledges him, but the gorilla didnt.
In SS arc: "I only bark at the STARS... I don't have the guts to jump" Renji accepted his cowardice, now he recognizes himself. The straydog reached the moon, he is worthy. Also the detail that the arm that is part monkey, the arm that protects, is the same arm that Rukia touched when they separated and with which he held her tight when they reconciled🥺
@@DefinitivelyZach They have cut some scenes of rukia and renji, let's hope they don't do the same with ichihime because I'm going to be very sad! But your shipper sense will be rewarded ;) I won't say any spoilers ofc
22:02 - to be fair, literally everyone knew it was them even when the manga first came out we knew it was someone from the soul king’s palace and those 2 were the most likely, especially considering where Ichigo was in the manga, which is different in the anime. Even most anime only reactors I’ve seen guessed it was them too lol
Tekken means Iron fist. Kaze like you said is wing and Tachi is a type of japanese sword. So its Iron Fist of Tachi (Swords) Wind. The name is pretty much explains the power 😂
Now I can’t confirm if this is true, but I heard the hollow mask powers were banned. Maybe this was said in one of the light novels, but I have no idea.
@@doomzday4623 yeah, I recently heard that as well. However, I did come up with a few possibilities that I feel might actually be very likely. 1. They didn’t hollowfy because their bankais should have already been hollowfied thanks to the pills. 2. Seeing as though we never saw it before, perhaps the vizards can’t use their hollow mask and powers at the same time (Ichigo’s done it, but his hollow and Soul Reaper powers are one and the same). 3 (the option I think is the most likely). Using their bankai and mask together might make the hollow inside them too strong to control, causing them to go on a rampage.
You’re not ready for the next TWO episodes, Zach. (Next week and the following). In 2 episodes.. if I’m thinking of it right…. The fight in 2 weeks… no one is ready lol. The OP gives a very subtle hint for next week. That’s all I’ll say. It probably doesn’t make sense to you anyways since you’re anime only… probably best to keep it that way…. Briefing over it… all of us are eating good for the next 4 episodes.
Unlike Ichigo whose Zanpakuto is Hollowfied, the Visored's soul was the one that was Hollowfied not the Zanpakuto itself, so using Hollow mask would def buff them (Not the bankai) but at the same time it's also not a good choice since it would drain their stamina too fast, sticking to shikai and bankai is much a better choice to at least reserve some strength after a fight 'cause you'll never know when you will get jumped at. In order for a Quincy to get poisoned, their reishi must have contact with the Hollow reiatsu, it's not something where just being near a Hollow would kill them. Remember they gathered a bunch of Arrancar but nothing happened. *spoiler* *spoiler* *spoiler* just like what happened to Zaraki, after Gremmy fucked himself up, the Quincy girls were jumping on Kenpachi, he could barely move thus not being able to dodge any of Candice's attacks.
Since everyone has left excellent comments, I will comment on what I know because I am Japanese. ■双王蛇尾丸(Sōō Zabimaru) "蛇尾(Zabi)" means "snake's tail," and is based on a fictional chimera called "Nue", which is a Japanese word for a mythical creature called a chimera. (Incidentally, the name "Zabi" comes from a river in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, called the Zabi River, which is a dry river that does not flow unless there is heavy rainfall.) The Nue is a chimera in common, and although there are differences in the way they are mixed, they basically have the head of a monkey and the tail of a snake. Depending on the literature, the Nue may have the body of a raccoon dog with the limbs of a tiger, or vice versa, or it may have only a tiger body. It may be a bird in its vocal tract, as it makes a cry at night that sounds like a white's thrush. Another theory is that it is a 雷獣(Raijū/Thunder beast). Perhaps this is the reason why the 蛇牙鉄炮(ZagaTeppou/Snake Fang Cannon) had a thunder effect when it was fired. Now, I am going off topic, but let me explain about 双王(Sōō). "双(Sō)" is a kanji character meaning "two things that form a pair". A typical word for this is "双子(Futago/Twins). The word "王(Ō)" is a kanji character meaning "King". The two kings are 狒々王(Hihiō/Baboon King) and 大蛇王(Orochiō/Serpent King). Previously, Renji had only called him "Hihiō Zabimaru" when bankai-ing, so the Orochiō must not have recognized his power.
@@sipenarekbecha7193 The first performance is [Sea Drift], in which the puppet spins and traps the enemy in a wall of water current. The second performance is [Prometheus], in which the puppet creates fire and hurls it at the enemy. The third performance is [Ein Heldenleben(A Hero's Life)]. This is only my discussion, as both the anime and the original ended before the effect was activated. The name probably comes from a symphonic poem composed by Richard Strauss. The finale of "Ein Heldenleben", "The Hero's Retirement from this World and Completion", is quoted from the last theme of "Don Quixote" and is said to express the resignation of an old hero. Looking back bitterly on his own past battles, the hero eventually passes away quietly, being cared for by his companion. In the anime, just before the activation, it was dark and gloomy, so we think that it is a mental attack on the enemy to make him regret his past battles and quietly draw his last breath. * The sentence may be a little strange because it is written with reference to a machine translation.
@@mark8327-u5f Yes, I have no way to prove it, but as far as I know, I have no foreign relatives, I am a native Japanese, born and raised in Japan. Therefore, my English is unfamiliar and I rely heavily on machine translation, so my writing may be a little strange. LOL. As for "BLEACH TYBW", it is a little difficult to evaluate. This is just a reaction around my friends, so it is not an overall impression, but TYBW was serialized about 9 years ago in manga, and "BLEACH" itself is a work that has once been completed both in anime and manga. Therefore, it is different from a serialized anime like "One Piece" or a remake like "Rurouni Kenshin", and is a rare Shonen Jump work that is complete as a manga, but is the latest anime work. This work was originally announced as a project to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the serialization of "BLEACH", so it has a strong commemorative meaning. The author, Kubo-Sensei, supervised the production and supervised the costumes of the characters in the OP, and there are many developments (such as Hirako's Bankai) that did not appear in the original work. Although I feel that it is too late for this anime adaptation of a work from about 9 years ago for the 20th anniversary, I am watching it with the expectation that it will lead to "BURN THE WITCH" and "NEW BREATHES FROM HELL". Although there are some scenes where the CG sometimes bothers me, the drawings are not broken, and in general, I give it high marks.
You wanna know what annoys me if these guys would have used their hollow Masks It would have stalled enough for my boy renji To come and fight and also it would have And Rose He has a final song that he was going to use against him mask But he told Him how his ability work The final song with literally take his breath away also I just realized it would have been a 4V1 Because rukia wouldn't have to take both of them to the sick bay Also I believe he said innocent fan not that he was Heal clean him it was the fact that James wasn't hurting Somebody
He can be killed, but will resurrect so long as Mask is alive. So yes, you can say he is immortal. He only dies if he’s disintegrated and resurrects as long Mask is alive. Remember, that Yhwach was the one who bestowed him the power. And that it returned to him. Furthermore, Yhwach’s version of this power cannot be weaker than the one James had.
I’ll make my video however I want to. If you want to watch the show with no commentary you could just go watch it by yourself. FYI, sitting and watching in silence for reaction videos is how you get copyright strikes.

Mask > Kensei and Rose

I didn't intend to spoil you on anything, I thought we could share predictions. I'm anime only, just a few huge plot points have been spoiled for me over the past 10 years and I wouldn't dream of sharing those here or on anyone's fresh reaction videos.
Rukia and Renji were simply the only ones I thought made sense. They've always been a pair since the end of the SS Arc, and the timing, placement, and presentation made it clear to me that it was them. I'll keep my theories to myself from now on.
You did nothing wrong. Nice prediction
Oh I'm not mad then. You can keep giving your predictions you just have to remind me that you're anime only too. I tried to say "if you were a manga reader and spoiled me, then.." And even then I'm only joking. Thank you for commenting again. I appreciate you
My theory on Renji's bankai goes back to what Byakuya said, that bankai are supposed to be trained for 10years and not everyone can do it. But both Renji and Ichigo forced it in like 3 days which turned out to be incomplete as Byakuya said when he fought Renji. So in both cases, I'm sure if they are given 10 years, Renji would have been accepted to this bankai + Ichigo would have figured his true bankai as well. There's also another case of this later in another cour lol.
Actually, it was stated that Renji had already started undergoing the Bankai training prior to him meeting up with Ichigo in the underground training area that he was already at the manifestation of his Zanpaukto it’s just that he finally attained it prior to his fight with Byakuya
@@SerratedSun5841 Byakuya literally said Renji will need 10 years to fully mature his ban kai. That's one o the reasons Byakuya was able to throw Renji off balance during that fight.
@@ASageCalledQ that I understand all I was saying was he didn’t achieve Bankai in only 3 days like he was saying obviously attaining and mastering are different
Renji did turn him to ash himself he just said did you burn yourself out as as an insult
Oh ok I was confused about that bit because that makes it sound like Mask like burned himself to death using all the reishi in his body
Tekken btw means Wind Fist, or in other words with Tachikaze: Iron Fist (Earth) Severing Wind.
The visoreds can't use bankai and Hollow masks at the same time and them using it in Shikai would've been an even faster whoopin.
I feel like very few people know this, they think the visoreds can hollowfy and bankai at the same time which is so not true. Thanks for clarifying on that.
Where was it stated please? I'm not trying to be rude but Ichigo did it multiple times.
@@gig7932 Ichigo can do it because his hollow is literally his soul reaper power/ his Zanpaktou. Its stated multiple times that using the mask is very very exhausting and using with bankai or even shikai it wouldn't last very long. Eg Mashiro who can maintain her hollowfied form for 15 hours but when in battle it breaks after a few minutes. So in short they can use bankai when hollowfied but it's not a good idea.
Jugram is pronounced Yugram
Renji's zanpakuto is kind of like a chimera (iirc), a hybrid of a snake and a gorilla, it was shown during the SS arc.
while Hihio Zabimaru only showed the snake part, So Oh Zabimaru showed both the Gorilla and the Snake. a very unique power system and was also foreshadowed in the earlier seasons. Kubo never missed.
Holy shit I can’t believe I didn’t realize that! I even watched the Zanpakuto Rebillion arc, it was right in front of us the whole time!
@@DefinitivelyZach saw it again a few hours ago, the gorilla part is still there, but only for his right arm and shoulders. the snake gave most of the fighting power, maybe around 70%-30%
my headcannon would be the snake acknowledges him, but the gorilla didnt.
In SS arc: "I only bark at the STARS... I don't have the guts to jump" Renji accepted his cowardice, now he recognizes himself. The straydog reached the moon, he is worthy. Also the detail that the arm that is part monkey, the arm that protects, is the same arm that Rukia touched when they separated and with which he held her tight when they reconciled🥺
Rukia-Renji ship sailing GOOD rn, which is great for an Ichigo-Orihime shipper like me :)
@@DefinitivelyZach They have cut some scenes of rukia and renji, let's hope they don't do the same with ichihime because I'm going to be very sad! But your shipper sense will be rewarded ;) I won't say any spoilers ofc
22:02 - to be fair, literally everyone knew it was them even when the manga first came out we knew it was someone from the soul king’s palace and those 2 were the most likely, especially considering where Ichigo was in the manga, which is different in the anime. Even most anime only reactors I’ve seen guessed it was them too lol
Yeah I didn’t predict it at first. The other anime only commenter gave me the idea to be honest
Vizard Captains are banned from using their Hollow powers in Soul Society (it's one of the Dumb Rules of SS)
Tekken means Iron fist. Kaze like you said is wing and Tachi is a type of japanese sword. So its Iron Fist of Tachi (Swords) Wind. The name is pretty much explains the power 😂
Name of the song in the intro ?
Renji took so many L that bro decided to become a villain 👿
Now I can’t confirm if this is true, but I heard the hollow mask powers were banned. Maybe this was said in one of the light novels, but I have no idea.
that is totally made up by fans, never said. I'm always up to date on kluboutside answers by Kubo too & he's never said it over there either
@@doomzday4623 yeah, I recently heard that as well. However, I did come up with a few possibilities that I feel might actually be very likely.
1. They didn’t hollowfy because their bankais should have already been hollowfied thanks to the pills.
2. Seeing as though we never saw it before, perhaps the vizards can’t use their hollow mask and powers at the same time (Ichigo’s done it, but his hollow and Soul Reaper powers are one and the same).
3 (the option I think is the most likely). Using their bankai and mask together might make the hollow inside them too strong to control, causing them to go on a rampage.
You’re not ready for the next TWO episodes, Zach. (Next week and the following).
In 2 episodes.. if I’m thinking of it right…. The fight in 2 weeks… no one is ready lol.
The OP gives a very subtle hint for next week. That’s all I’ll say. It probably doesn’t make sense to you anyways since you’re anime only… probably best to keep it that way…. Briefing over it… all of us are eating good for the next 4 episodes.
Don't forget Kensei using bankai isn't new. He went bankai on the aizen fight.
I forgot!
Unlike Ichigo whose Zanpakuto is Hollowfied, the Visored's soul was the one that was Hollowfied not the Zanpakuto itself, so using Hollow mask would def buff them (Not the bankai) but at the same time it's also not a good choice since it would drain their stamina too fast, sticking to shikai and bankai is much a better choice to at least reserve some strength after a fight 'cause you'll never know when you will get jumped at. In order for a Quincy to get poisoned, their reishi must have contact with the Hollow reiatsu, it's not something where just being near a Hollow would kill them. Remember they gathered a bunch of Arrancar but nothing happened.
*spoiler* *spoiler* *spoiler*
just like what happened to Zaraki, after Gremmy fucked himself up, the Quincy girls were jumping on Kenpachi, he could barely move thus not being able to dodge any of Candice's attacks.
28:34 nah Renji did that
Since everyone has left excellent comments, I will comment on what I know because I am Japanese.
■双王蛇尾丸(Sōō Zabimaru)
"蛇尾(Zabi)" means "snake's tail," and is based on a fictional chimera called "Nue", which is a Japanese word for a mythical creature called a chimera.
(Incidentally, the name "Zabi" comes from a river in Tochigi Prefecture, Japan, called the Zabi River, which is a dry river that does not flow unless there is heavy rainfall.)
The Nue is a chimera in common, and although there are differences in the way they are mixed, they basically have the head of a monkey and the tail of a snake.
Depending on the literature, the Nue may have the body of a raccoon dog with the limbs of a tiger, or vice versa, or it may have only a tiger body.
It may be a bird in its vocal tract, as it makes a cry at night that sounds like a white's thrush.
Another theory is that it is a 雷獣(Raijū/Thunder beast).
Perhaps this is the reason why the 蛇牙鉄炮(ZagaTeppou/Snake Fang Cannon) had a thunder effect when it was fired.
Now, I am going off topic, but let me explain about 双王(Sōō).
"双(Sō)" is a kanji character meaning "two things that form a pair".
A typical word for this is "双子(Futago/Twins).
The word "王(Ō)" is a kanji character meaning "King".
The two kings are 狒々王(Hihiō/Baboon King) and 大蛇王(Orochiō/Serpent King).
Previously, Renji had only called him "Hihiō Zabimaru" when bankai-ing, so the Orochiō must not have recognized his power.
I am curious what's your theory on Rose 3rd act Skill (that he can't execute yet) ? 🤔
@@sipenarekbecha7193 The first performance is [Sea Drift], in which the puppet spins and traps the enemy in a wall of water current.
The second performance is [Prometheus], in which the puppet creates fire and hurls it at the enemy.
The third performance is [Ein Heldenleben(A Hero's Life)].
This is only my discussion, as both the anime and the original ended before the effect was activated.
The name probably comes from a symphonic poem composed by Richard Strauss.
The finale of "Ein Heldenleben", "The Hero's Retirement from this World and Completion", is quoted from the last theme of "Don Quixote" and is said to express the resignation of an old hero.
Looking back bitterly on his own past battles, the hero eventually passes away quietly, being cared for by his companion.
In the anime, just before the activation, it was dark and gloomy, so we think that it is a mental attack on the enemy to make him regret his past battles and quietly draw his last breath.
* The sentence may be a little strange because it is written with reference to a machine translation.
Oh ur a real japanese. Can you tell us how's bleach in your circle of friends? What's their opinion about the show?
@@mark8327-u5f Yes, I have no way to prove it, but as far as I know, I have no foreign relatives, I am a native Japanese, born and raised in Japan.
Therefore, my English is unfamiliar and I rely heavily on machine translation, so my writing may be a little strange. LOL.
As for "BLEACH TYBW", it is a little difficult to evaluate.
This is just a reaction around my friends, so it is not an overall impression, but TYBW was serialized about 9 years ago in manga, and "BLEACH" itself is a work that has once been completed both in anime and manga.
Therefore, it is different from a serialized anime like "One Piece" or a remake like "Rurouni Kenshin", and is a rare Shonen Jump work that is complete as a manga, but is the latest anime work.
This work was originally announced as a project to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the serialization of "BLEACH", so it has a strong commemorative meaning.
The author, Kubo-Sensei, supervised the production and supervised the costumes of the characters in the OP, and there are many developments (such as Hirako's Bankai) that did not appear in the original work.
Although I feel that it is too late for this anime adaptation of a work from about 9 years ago for the 20th anniversary, I am watching it with the expectation that it will lead to "BURN THE WITCH" and "NEW BREATHES FROM HELL".
Although there are some scenes where the CG sometimes bothers me, the drawings are not broken, and in general, I give it high marks.
@@Heppoko_ no there is no problem in ur English writing.
I see, so you guys watching it hoping it lead to burn the witch or hell arc.
Didnt kensei used his bankai against wonderweiss? Did he get off screened or what cuz it looks like he lost when wonderweiss came after yammamoto
I honestly forgot, but others said he did
let him cook now
I hate that Rose and Kensei get beat up, it's stupid but they have to get beat up for Renji to shut up Mask and James they're both very annoying...
This episode >>> 1071
You wanna know what annoys me if these guys would have used their hollow Masks It would have stalled enough for my boy renji To come and fight and also it would have And Rose He has a final song that he was going to use against him mask But he told Him how his ability work The final song with literally take his breath away also I just realized it would have been a 4V1 Because rukia wouldn't have to take both of them to the sick bay Also I believe he said innocent fan not that he was Heal clean him it was the fact that James wasn't hurting Somebody
ジェームズ不死身かよw
He can be killed, but will resurrect so long as Mask is alive. So yes, you can say he is immortal. He only dies if he’s disintegrated and resurrects as long Mask is alive.
Remember, that Yhwach was the one who bestowed him the power. And that it returned to him. Furthermore, Yhwach’s version of this power cannot be weaker than the one James had.
intro so long man almost a turn off
I put chapters so you could skip around if you want to
Reacting doesnt mean talking every .2 seconds, stfu once and a while and watch
I’ll make my video however I want to. If you want to watch the show with no commentary you could just go watch it by yourself. FYI, sitting and watching in silence for reaction videos is how you get copyright strikes.
