[PATREON Content of the Day! - Oct 3]

The abrupt Uryu switch critiques are fair, and I'd say overall it was not really hinted to enough. However there are at least a couple scenes in season 1 that are meant to foreshadow Uryu being unsure on what to do. You actually said at the time you were worried he would flip during some of them. If you go to the timestamp 10:30 in episode 6 of cour 1 that scene is probably most obvious one.

im pretty sure jack missed the silent getsuga tensho, because he reacted to the jujisho saying "did he slice through the air?"

The ending poem is "Love you to death."

When you find out 1 of the remaining 2 Special War Threats, it'll make sense. This episode is Ichigo just aura farming.

I don’t think the Special Threats are ranked by numbers, I’m pretty sure they called Ichigo Number One was because of the OST, but he is the top special threat Also I think you missed how ichigo made a cut earlier showing off how he fired his Getsuga Tenshou

Some people REALLY loved Orihimes choice of outfit XD word of warning though for next episode, there's a fairly iconic manga scene involving said clothing that was sadly cut, apparently for being "too lewd", which I just simply don't buy; they could have easily just changed it a little instead of removing it altogether -_- Won't give details YET, just know that it exists in chapter 589 from roughly page 3 and onward. If you'd like to check it out after episode 22, feel free.

Yamamoto would have been a Special War Power with both arms, but also because Yhwach also didnt want to consider him one just to bm him and the Soul Reapers. I will say we have met all 5, the final 2 youll be formally introduced to soon enough.

liltotto is my favorite Sternritter, her power is op and she so funny

idk why its hard for ppl to understand as to why ishida would switch sides tbh. you really have to think abt the situation in his shoes, his entire race was killed of by the soul reapers including his grandfather (which has already been showed many times throughtout og and even a little in tybw that his grandfather means the most to him out of anyone) its also important to note that he doesnt even have a relationship anywhere near as connected with the soul society compared to someone like ichigo outside of rukia and renji. the only thing i will say is that it is a little jarring because of how fast it happened and overall how fast things moved in the begining of cour 2 but if you really think about the situation in his hands its not that crazy (also we saw in a post credit in cour 1 that haschwalth met up with him probably forcefully dragging uryu along without being able to tell anyone.)

When a soul reaper dies their body disperses into Reishi after time has gone by to return into the cycle of reincarnation so in the end all that is left behind is their clothes also I'm not sure why your episode didn't have a poem, this episode did have one

I really love True Shikai Ichigo's fit. The white shoulder sash gives off real captain vibes, unlike his all-black shihakusho from the OG, which made him look like a lowly lieutenant
