Well...here we are, Byakuya vs Pepe. Definitely one of the weirdest fights in Bleach. What do you think of the battle between these two? How would you change it up? Let me know your thoughts below!
It’s rough that the best part of the fight was liltotto eating him
I think it could be improved by giving Pepe more thralls, outright incorporating him into the zombie battle by taking control of a few of Giselle's zombies, and generally just allowing his powers to better speak for themselves. I am totally cool with keeping his death the same. That was the best part and a crowning moment for homegirl Liltotto.
Pepe-Sama should have won
@@garystewart343Oh God no...
@@garystewart343Don't tell me Papa Pepe got you too😢
So there’s Shunsui who always fights enemies who uses guns and Byakuya who fights enemies who use love and manipulation techniques. Any other pattern?
Ichigo having rematches against most of his opponents after getting stomped the first time
@@ironrevenger9386That kind of goes beyond Ichigo and more into the very DNA of the modern shōnen protagonist.
And there’s Rukia who kept fighting horrific opponents like No.9 espada & As Nodt lol
@@justinjiang3094 You mean the ones who attempt to mindrape her?
@@MrGksarathy I know, but it never happened 6 times in any other series I can think of. There’s Byakuya, Aizen, Grimmjow, Ulquiorra, Yammy, and Gin.
I always found it funny that Byakuya fought Zommari who basically had the same ability but wasn't the one finishing Pepe off with his Bankai
Byakuya got barely nothing but off screens in the later parts of TYBW sadly and this cursed thing is what we get ...
byakuya needs love
@@Force-Multiplierit's almost like he wasn't planned to be alive by that point in the story...
@@Prushinthespirit that's 100% a myth mate
go and tell Kubo* to do anything and see where that gets you ...
you can't posible convince me that some fangirls threatened the man to "unkill" Byakuya
when that man literally shuns fans that just happily ask for the hell arc
@@Force-MultiplierI don't care of it's myth or not.
But it doesn't change that Byakuya being alive in this arc doesn't look organically written at all.
He takes credit for Rukia's only hype moment in this arc vs As Nodt, he's just in for a ride for the entire arc after First Invasion, he takes on foes that could've given more fights for characters that lack their moments etc.
During First Invasion he messes up spectacularly and then just comes back even stronger while still remaining the same arrogance that almost brought his downfall. What was Kubo trying to say with that? His buff in the palace is ridiculous: one of the most OP bankai with differences so non-obvious and few that nobody except for him can possibly know them - and they made it few times stronger, thought it being weak was never the case.
Even if Kubo didn't actually plan to kill him off, there's too many moments and details that point to the exact opposite. In this arc Byakuya gets glazed so hard, you can almost see "fan favourite" written on his forehead.
I feel like they’re gonna give pepe’s holy form a dark, sort of toxic pink color. Similar to mask de masculine’s crimson red
One of the best moments for Liltotto, showing why you shouldn't screw with her unless you want to be eaten like Pepe.
Can’t wait to see how the anime pulls that scene off, cause like you said one of the best moments for Liltotto who’s my favorite Sternritter. Pepe definitely sealed his fate when he decided to turn on Liltotto and Meninas.
Yeah, I assumed Pepe tried talking his way out because he knew in raw stats he had no way to even escape her or land L the Love.
I mean, she had the raw stats to beat P the Power, while sparing her life. So what was he going to do?
@@Javetts apparently beg for his life, sucks that plan wasn't going work on Liltotto
I don't think Kubo is changing what Pepe can do with Hisagi; something extremely similar happens to Rin when Pepe first attacks the 12th division barracks. Rin stabs Hiyosu while still seemingly in control of his mind, which is what Kubo seems to be showing with Hisagi later on
Great point - I forgot about that!
Yea, the big difference between the two "Loves" is that Pepe doesn't directly take over and control his victims. They love him and will do what he wants, similar to doing something for someone you love when asked to. Hisagi even said it; he wanted to attack Byakuya.
Full honesty
Pepe is weird as hell and very off putting, but the way his power works and all the implications it has… really feels like he was meant for more, but got hit with the “okay wrap it up”
I always felt his exchanges with Askin were because they can both oneshot each other. D does nothing to counter L or vice versa.
The only truly unbeatable Stand, [Editorial Mismanagement]!
Only time Kensei ever won a fight in the entire series... And to think that he had the audacity to diss Hisagui while saving him from Mask.
The fight is not bad, but it's Pepe...
Yes, it is.
yeah besides a few other sternritters, his schrift is kinda lame, but his design is unique.
He’s legitimately difficult to look at
@@_-Bane-_MainWhy? Because he's black?!
😂😂😂
@@seriouscyrus6982nope.it's that vollstandig of his that requires eye bleach after seeing it.
If anything I wish they would have focused more on Byakuya vs Robert, Nanana and Candace. It’d be nice to see him defeat them while showcasing the results of his training in the palace as well as giving us insight into Robert’s Shrift.
Exactly. That would be 5x better
Its confirmed that he will use his bankai against them in the anime. But we will get lucky if that scene even last 30sec coz they adapting almost 7chapters this episode
Let’s just hope the battle between Byakuya vs Candace nanana and Robert would be expanded
And...it lasted a whole 30 seconds. Just one shots em all
@@joshuabryant9845 still better than just off screening them like the manga did
My problems with this fight are mostly about how it cuts off the Giselle vs Mayuri fight, how shoehorned and rushed it was, and Pepe's uncreative use of his terrifying powers, whether it be his thralls or love arrows. Pepe himself is honestly a refreshjng take for a love-themed villain in shōnen, and I just wish he got more time to actually show it before getting humiliated.
Well its not cut other than the zombie fight with rose, rangiku and kensei vs the arrancars unless the anime wants to expand on that. Mayuri only references the conclusion which will be shown, although it doesn't kill Giselle which mayuri doesn't know so Giselle basically feign his death to avoid being fully defeated (very in-character). If they are going to show the whole pepe fight atleast I hope we get to see what happened around with the other sternritters fighting byakuya which was mostly off sceen in the manga.
No
Honestly I just really hope that in the anime they reveal how Liltotto managed to restrain and take out Minenas
She is just that strong, as revealed in CFYOW.
@@zigazdovc6175 what does she do in cfyow?
@@xfighters3913it’s stated she’s the strongest in the group including Bambi
she's just that strong. CFYOW+the manga gives a really good idea of how they scale. Bambietta>=Lil>>>Candice/Meninas. Giselle is a special case.
Pepe being some weird twisted version of Cupid, is neat in concept, and if Kubo's intention was for us to feel disgusted at his Vollstandig, good on him. But when you make him the focus of Byakuya's first proper fight since he lost to As Nodt, and he could've fought Nanana (Who supposedly fought Rose and came out fine) or Robert (Who shot out Shunsui's eye), it was a weird choice to say for sure.
Maybe if Pepe had kept his normal Sage look with the sunglasses, I would've liked his design more.
*Edit:* Ha, seems the anime heard my plea lol
I actually like his cult leader/love guru design transitioning to a repulsive old cherubim. Definitely hits some of that religious horror, and also shows him for what he really is.
If I had a nickel for every time Byakuya fought a dark skinned enemy with a gross transformation and powers themed around love, I'd have 2 nickels, but it's wierd it's happened twice...
*which isn’t a lot
You missed that phrase in your recycled humorless internet joke.
You forgot the "which isn't a lot.." part. lol
Depending if we learn more about Yoruichi, that could apply to her, too. (And I mean the activation of senkei could be considered "gross".)
3 times, yami
@@crownedking_cj8890 his powers don’t revolve around love
Kubo has Byakuya fight a lot of enemies with some sort of mental manipulation. Zomari, tsukushima (technically past manipulation but the effect is the same), As Nodt, and Pepe. In fact the only canon fights he has against “regular” opponents is ichigo, renji, yami, and kenpachi, all of which except for ichigo are less than 1 chapter if memory serves.
The same thing happens every time except for Zomari too. Byakuya is just randomly too cool to have feelings and win thanks to that.
Tsukishima should have fought Rukia, Pepe should have fought Hisagi and/or be given a big one v all fight
Byakuya always gets the weird ones.
Also really looking forward to anime only viewers reacting to Pepe.
My guess is it's the dark side of pretty privilege. I feel like he reminds them of a crush, or an ex or something.
The underutilization of Robert Accutone was a big dissapointment in the arc.
*Takes the new captain commanders eye. Is off-screened and never gets his schrift named.
Agreed
If only TYBW was much longer and better thought out....
Right, he almost casually killed one of the strongest shinigami in history and got treated like a background fodder afterwards.
I really don't get it. Did you all want all 26 Sternritters to have fleshed out fights or what? I am genuinely curious
@@chasinghaze0962 not all 26 , but the wrong ones were used . Pepe got all these characters fighting him , meanwhile Robert accutron, the guy who blew out the new captain commanders eye gets offscreened and barely any info revealed.
I really wish PePe's shrift was *L: The Leer* and it gave him- or his staff- a weird eye power like Medusa or basilisk powers.
That's a really cool idea
Tbh I actually love how cursed his design is, reminds me of ugly bastards from hentai and I wouldn’t be surprised if that was part of Kubo’s thought process 💀💀
Finally, someone gets it. I also think this dude looks like your stereotypical love guru from the '70s. He probably was one, or some sort of aspiring cult leader, before Ywach found him.
The fight may have been a downer but in the end, Pepe meeting his end was a highlight especially given just how repulsive he was. The way he went out was also satisfying and symbolic.
Absolutely. It was very satisfying to see him die that way.
I only wish Giselle got what was coming to her too, given CFYOW.
@@gorade1901 Yeah it's quite jarring that Giselle essentially got a slap on the wrist. But if there is a silver lining it's that all of them have adjusted well to their new lives and business in the human world, not causing any trouble.
The Bambies are lucky to have Liltotto in their team, because the loli is carrying the Bambies on their back to a happy ending in CFYOW. Giselle is the only really evil character that got away with it, as even Mayuri got his comeuppance in the final arc.@@manuelacosta9463
@@gorade1901 Yeah. I have no idea why Kubo let her live. There’s literally no point.
Something that in theory makes the Love very dangerous in comparison to the Zombie as a shrift, it handily works on other Quincy where the Zombie does need another Quincy to be dead first. Like suggested earlier in the video, I think it would have meant a lot more if he had gotten several of the others to be a bit more of a multi-battle would have gone a long way to show how dangerous it is.
"It just works." - Todd "Pepe" Howard
What pisses me off about this fight is that it got more screentime than the squad zero.
In PEPE we trust
But it was always SANE in Bleach!
I love that you upload these videos as they lead up to the fights in the anime as it's airing. It gives me alot of think about and look out for once the episodes do come out and helps to keep some information fresh in my mind ^-^
One of the best videos I've seen on this channel. Very nuanced and deep analysis. Loving it!
When the Love was first revealed I was hoping that Pepe would be done in by the classic twist on the Yandere trope--maybe one of his victims would get so jealous that Pepe was sharing his love with other characters that they'd kill him so no one could have him (assuming he wouldn't expect to have to order someone not to kill him).
One way to do this could have been integrating the end of the Giselle fight much better, and maybe some timeline shuffling. But if Pepe was truly shown to be a threat on his backfoot, fleeing tactically from the fight against unloving zombies, only to run into Giselle in the cave... Maybe he could have tried to make Giselle love him and fight against his pursuers, only to find out how Giselle really treats the things she loves... It was built upon pretty well with the Bambi interactions, and in my opinion gives that build up of a terrible person some justification and payoff before the inevitable "yeah ok even though you are a monster and still brutally killed your zombie gf, we beat you so you can still be on our side"
all in all, making it simply another slave-creator was uninspired. Truly diving into what it means to make someone love you that much rather than just making them your slave could have differentiated it from Amor and the Zombie.
The biggest relief is that he’ll be gone next episode so we can expand on the Zero Squad fights.
Theoretically, Pepe could have been a cannon version of Muromasa if he decided to just go after different Soul Reaper's zanpuktos. Tho he can't manifest the spirits and needs someone to wield them. What if he made a few fall for him and he keep them with him in his floating bowl, or whatever that thing is, and picked which he wanted to use.
Also before this I thought fans didn't like him cause he was a fat old man making people fall in love with him and he did something weird with it, but now I get it, built up to be a big threat but ends up being a joke with lost potential
pepe waccabrada looks like a hippie barragan
Pepe-Sama is the greatest! He deserves his own arc
He deserves his own anime 😢
I’m feeling you’ve seen some fan sites and pages that discussed this. It really was very conflicting to think about. Glad you’ve made your views for us to ponder as well.
I would say this fight won't be changed, it will be rearranged. Made more structured... we might see a proper finale of Mayuri vs Giselle, before Pepe will even show up... so that it will be more logical that he's here...
You are going to be a happy lad this episode Mr. Tommo sensei
day is good mrtommo posted
I'm excited for the next episode bc it's being said they will adapt the byakuya vs the 3 sternritter fight so we csn actually see him fight them now and maybe get Robert's shrift.
H 😅 8:47 😅
@alexprince9035 what? There are already leaks showing byakuya using his bankai and Robert using sklav rai like the bambis did and byakuya fighting robert,nanana and candi. The fight is actually going to be shown unlike how it was just skipped in the manga and done offscreen.
How could you not love this fight ? It features his loving majesty Pepe The Love Waccabrada and any battle featuring him is automatically elevated to the rank of G.O.A.T ,after all Pepe Sama is such a loving lovable lug of lovingness and every scene he is in should be treated with nothing less than our purest , sincerest love and adoration.
I will say, out of all the fights in the TYBW, this was definitely a weaker one and I would not care for it if Byakuya wasn't involved.
I do hope they add a little more to the fight however if they don't, I'm not going to be too disappointed.
Again, I'm just hyped to see Byakuya back in action. Granted, it's not much.
It may not be kubo who decided to cut short the fight. Nobody can say for sure really and since its towards the end of the series maybe kubo has the ability to disregard his editors more but we do know that especially early on quite big decisions were made by the editors such as moving onto soul society and ending the beginning arc faster than kubo intended. And completely changing orihime's powers from one that gives her horns and a tail to the fairies she has in this timeline. I wonder how different bleach would be if kubo never heeded his editors once.
Regardless of whether or not this fight went on any longer i seriously doubt it would be a fan fave so it seems plausible somebody not even necessarily the editor strongly recommended kubo to get it over with and move on. might explain why theres so many brief ideas in this small space. Classic kubo thing to do. Just oda not getting enough pages so instead of lowering the amount of panels in one chapter he just makes the panels small, messy and unreadable kubo instead of cutting out some ideas he had he just shoves everything in it and gives us small tasters of everything.
But it could also be kubo's decision we know he gets bored of stuff exceedingly quickly one need look no further than ichigo's powers to see that.
I kinda like zommari's and pepe's releases in a grotesque way. In a series of hypermodels its nice to have an alternative now and again.
Bazz-B did not teamkill for stealing credit like he said. We find out later that he hates everyone in that army thanks to his backstory so it makes perfect sense he would take any chance to sneakily kill them.
Is pepe actually insanely strong being able to catch and corner byakuya? byakuya was already very fast and strong before the royal guard training and look how much renji powered up after it.
I just want to see byakuya fight, I'm simple like that
I wonder what happened to Rin and Jidanbo after Pepe took control of them. It’s literally never explained.
I guess it can be assumed that after Pepe was defeated they were no longer under his control
@@km2460should be, since Hisagi is fine at eos too
who knows, man? Maybe they went for a nice vacation or started a band. The possibilities are endless.
Jidanbo seems like he actually died, given he's conspicuously absent after the TYBW.
@@MrGksarathy That’s what I was thinking too. For one thing, we don’t see how the RnD attack ended. For another, Jidanbo isn’t present during Pepe’s fight later. You’d think Pepe would want to use a pawn like that if he still had him.
I feel like some soul reapers had to put him down so he wouldn’t crush anyone else.
I've seen the Leak Images Of the next episode Let's just say Robert it's time to shine Also lord Pepe Will be featured in this episode I can't wait I mean I know a chapter is from but still
Honestly more Robert less Pepe suits me, same for Bambi girls and elite guard,
Though Pepe suits for comedic purposes so I enjoyed it a bit...
Pepe controlling Zanpaktou is nice twist that even Kuchiki could not predict.
Respect for the animators that had to do pepes vollständig
Hope they don't animate his bulge like they did with Mask.
Maybe Kubo felt sorry for Byakuya. He kept throwing Byakuya with people who mess with his feelings. Poor thing needs therapy after the war.
It's good, interesting and clever. Match up Kuchiki with familiar yet different opponent. The perv sage powers are similar to that Espada, but different.
My guess is that the zombie Pepe made fall in love was Jidanbo in the first invasion so he could take the credit for destroying R&D department.
I just noticed that my man Byakuya has fought: Zommari, Pepe, and is implied to have fought or at least trained with Yourichi. All that was missing was a fight with Tousen and Nanana. I am starting to think he would be best friends with Zorro from one piece 🤣
Is Byakuya vs Pepe even a fight, considering short it is. God I really hope the anime expand byakuya's fight with Robert, Nana and Candince like how it did with Ichigo and bambis
Yeah I really hope Byakuya vs Candice nana and Robert is expanded
Kinda makes me wonder if Liltoto's ability to eat n absorb others powers might come into play in the anime version. It wasn't shown in the Manga but it could still be showcased in the anime. Giselle's zombies and Liltoto's new love kiss might make for a good combo fight. Probably won't play out that way...but still interesting.
Analyse omaeda vs that elephant arrancar 💀
What font are you using for your thumbnails? It's really nice.
You’re giving Pepe way more credit than he deserves
When you think about the comparisons between the Arrancar and the Sternritter, Liltotto's ability, the Glutton, is almost identical to Aaroniero's ability, Gluttony, they both devour others and absorb their power and it's confirmed in CFYOW that Liltotto absorbed Pepe's the Love as well.
This is so crazy to me bc I LOVED Pepe's design especially in his Voll Stin Dich!!! I can't be the only one he's just so fun
Byakuya vs. Dollar Store Zommari. Such a gross, redundant character. Zommari at least had real convictions and was definitely not a bystander, showing up promptly to Aaronierro's palace after his defeat.
It's kinda sad that Kensei's BEST SHOWING in the entirety of bleach is while he is a zombie puppet not using his zanpakatuo or hollow mask lmao.
Even tsukishima had manipulation based abilities. Some of these bleach characters have a type of opponents they like to fight
I enjoy what you're trying to do here. Thank you.
When MrTommo says that he finds something "interesting" he actually means "its bad and he hates it" 😂
Something tells me Pepe will have some AMAZING voice over. Like I can’t wait to hear how he speaks something tells me it’ll be the best part about the character
They should extend Byakuya vs Robert and forget about Pepe entirely, im against any cuts but i must say that this is the only cut i would fully support.
This guy is another Zommari but worse.
Picture this, Hisagi goes down and Byukuya speaks with Pepe and he tries to take control of Byuakuya but fails.
When Meninas hops in to fight being controlled by Pepe all while he's in the back trying to tag Kuchiki. Then, it happens.
Hisagi returns to the fight, bankai activated, and still under Pepe's control.
That'd be a cool moment, gives us a bankai reveal while making it unique because of the circumstances, and it'd boost the fight in general. It'd be interesting to see how Byakuya would handle the fight since Hisagi's bankai puts a timer on the battle while he essentially has 2 teammates for the bankai to have maximum effectiveness. Especially since Byakuya may be hesitant to kill him since he essentially revealed himself to be a lieutenant with a bankai just like Renji.
It also just makes sense, why wouldn't he use his bankai here? Hisagi's mind is poisoned by Pepe's Love. I think it makes total sense. Gives the team a huge tactical advantage (since his bankai is essentially a support bankai) and it's a payoff for that sense between Kensei and Hisagi before the 2nd Invasion. I think it makes sense.
A tall order but it'd be cool if the anime did this.
I wasn't gonna bring up the other sternritter but that'd make the fight all the more amazing. Could you imagine 2 supporting abilities 'U' the Underbelly and Hisagi's Bankai draining Byuakuya of his Reiatsu? How about while he's fighting Catnice and Robert at the same time? You can throw in the chaos Pepe's monologue while showing how much control he has over the situation, giving credence to his monologue.
I've been thinking for a while how to make Pepe more enjoyable, and I think you get it by swapping the schrift letters of him and Candice. Her schrift is T the thunderbolt, but her power is all about lightning, not thunder. So give Candice the letter L for the lightning, and give Pepe T for something like the tricky. Then Pepe could be a legitimately witchy character by turning him into a genie-like enemy. His main ability could be to turn his opponents' words and actions against them, like how genies have been typically depicted as twisting the words of your wish so it screws you over. While it would be more similar to Berenice at that point, we only see her post-mortem. If something like this had been Pepe's ability, I would've been so much more on board with his character.
To be somewhat fair to Mayuri, Bambi was, in fact, _super thirsty_ for Giselle's... you know... when she was zombified. It's within reason (for Mayuri) that he'd notice that and take steps to eliminate such an unnecessary complication.
I assumed that Hisagi believed he had defeated Pepe, since we see his thoughts after seeing Bayakuya defeated three Sternritter, and Pepe, who was just playing dead, hit him with the Love while he was approaching Byakuya.
as you said, Pepe always had his back turned to make him a bit character to end like this. Most people in Bleach are like that which is not a bad thing and not a bad writing. If everyone were op and how you described it, then one the series would end very quickly. And two there wouldn't be any point of giving the Soul Reapers more powers just to lose in each fight
Your videos butter My biscuits thank you
Think this fight does more for Lil Totos character than anyone else.
It would've been great if Pepe controlled multiple zanpakutou like Muramasa did during the Zanpakutou rebellion arc.
I swear that Pepe was something else 😂
I can't help but like him and this fight too.
Anime only fans will be weirded out 😆
Can't wait for it
They should've made Pepe control someone like Ukitake and put him against Shunsui or even Byakuya. Imagine a reverse scene of Byakuya catching Ukiatke's hand, as a call back to the SS arc bridge scene
I do get the idea that Pepe’s holy form is supposed to be a tainted version of love and that it’s ugly, but damn does it really throw you out of your chair when you see it for the first time
Every time I see one of your videos, I get a strong urge to write and draw what I always imagined the TYBW fights would be. The way you described the Sterritters fighting Pepe alongside the shinigami would have been so cool, especially if Pepe had gotten a few captains and lieautenants on his side. Can you imagine the emotional stakes? Friends fighting friends, trying to find a way to undo the Love power. At first, the more kido oriented characters could try binding their allies to fight Pepe directly, but then Pepe uses Sklaverei to steal the reishi, freeing his puppets and becoming even stronger in the proccess. It could have been so scary and so good. Every day I mourn the final arc that could have been...
The thing is, Kubo didn't have time/health for that that, pacing was all over the place during the entire arc.
Don't know if it's health or what, but when he felt bettter you have some prolongued fights, and some of them are just getting offscreen treatment.
@@piotrj.451 Yeah, I'm aware. I feel bad for him because I assume he must be the one that suffers the most from not being able to give his story the treatment he would have wanted. But still, dreaming is free, so I often imagine how things could have turned out in another universe...
Pepe sama to rock today
Honestly, this could have been epic if it was used to showcase that Byakuya was now ready to counter senbonsakura getting stolen. If Pepe had activated the shikai or Bankai state, that would have been a great moment of growth for Byakuya to show him as now being strong enough to over come even that situation.
I feel like there are also some similarities to Tsukishima fight since he also makes people love and respect him and his ability found weakness in Senbonzakura. Because of that maybe Byakuya would be more resistant to Love but I guess it would be repetitive and Love does have a stronger control over targets.
I actually forgot this happened😂
Pepe is my most hated character in the series, so much so that when he died, I wasn't even excited. But there was a sigh of relief that he was finally over. I would be completely fine if the anime entirely removed his "fight" to focus on anything else.
what’s with Byakuya and fighting people obsessed with love? First Zommari and now Pepe.
It's cheap to say love is the reason for everything when you declare everything as love.
i did watched the anime version today as a byakuya fan (havent read the manga) and was getting hyped when he beat 3 stern but the hyped is gone after he have problems about this one.
Yeah i know turning your allies against you is unfair fight. But unlike zaraki vs gremmy this is kind of thrash because mayuri saves the day and that glutton stern beats pepe which steals byakuya's spotlight
that's love for you. people in love don't realize they act differently
I wonder of the anime shows what happened to Meninas and how Liltotto was able to get away from her.
Perhaps by sneakily crushing her with that Golden Crunch ability?
i wonder how they going to do this fight in the next episode in the anime
Some pictures already posted for this ep byakuya use his bankai.
Byakuya fights against creeps who use "love" powers and Shunsui fights opponents who use guns. Thats basically a rule for Bleach.
Zommari Rureaux. Shukuro Tsukishima. As Nodt. PePe Waccabrada. These are Byakuya Kuchiki's only opponents in Bleach. And they all control the enemy by means of memories, the nervous system and emotions. I feel bad for him.
You forgot yammy, kenpachi, ichigo, and renji. And koga I guess? Confused why kpga was shown as a flashback in tybw but he was there.
@@charminglady2011 Those don't count because they had no intent to kill him. And the other fights were outnumbering the enemy. Koga isn't cannon.
The Pepe character looks like a knock off of "The Love Guru"
He resembles a baby with his Volstandig because cupids are often depicted as babies.
Would it be possible that they will cut this fight? Seeing as there is almost no real stakes and growth in this fight? Maybe they'll just expand on the 3v1 with the other sternritter that got off screened?
Nah leaks for the episode show this fight will still happen.
The moral: for a visored capitaIn to do something useful, he needs to be dead and then zombiefied by Mayuri.
Yep pepe is like this demonic, heartless, sadistic, corrupted version of cupid. He was too nosey about Byakuya and his zanpakuto. LIKE A HOLLOW'S SPEED
I always wondered how was Giselle able to be defeated with one stab it didnt kill her. Did losing her zombies to Mayuri make her not want to fight anymore?
I was wondering the same thing
I just want to see Liltoto taking out Meninas and Pepe
Such a weird fight
I thought Pepe power affecting soul, so Kensei-zombie has no soul (isn't he recovered at the end of Bleach with his 'soul' intact?)... well, Mayuri knows what his stuff. We'll see how this progress in the anime
Pepe controls the living; Gigi controls the dead.
Everything about pepe is about him been a ugly bastard but in a shonen scenario...
after having the spotlight in the SS arc, Byakuya had to fight the 7th(only the 7th) espada and this guy. It's like Kubo went full Kenpachi.
