I Shouldn’t Have Watched Bleach TYBW… 

It’s like every lil 13 yr old edgy blk teen loves anime, has blonde hair and apparently has a RU-vid anime channel 😂

This adaptation was an absolute love letter to the fans, the amount of passion that the team put into it is very noticable, is not something that is seen too often so it feels very special.

The fact that ichigo had Red Octobers, PS5 and Kubo signed art in his room the attention to detail

The first 30 seconds hit hard for me. “I didn’t read the manga, ‘cause I was trusting the process” gang wya? 😂😂😂

The fact the animation was already insane and the animation team said animation for cour 2 would be even better because they didnt feel satisfied with how cour 1 came out is wild

You're not wrong in thinking Byakuya should've died there. That was actually Kubo's intention as well. Since that would've made the invasion even more devastating for the Soul Society. But all the Byakuya fan girls in Japan completely raged at the death of their best boy and literally bullied Kubo into bringing him back.

This video is genuinely a masterpiece. I really love these types of videos where someone talks over anything anime related, with funny edits here and there.

When I was reading the manga (about 5 years ago) and saw how Byakuya was still alive, i was pissed and searched about it, then i learned that Byakuya was meant to die, but the fandom didn't accept it and were screaming on how bad Byakuya dying was, and because of all the hatred Kubo decided to let him live

RIP to all the fans that didn't live long enough to see the anime Bleach comeback.

"Protect the Soul Society, Ichigo Kurosaki" is like the most powerful line I heard in this. But I agree, Byakuya should've bit it there. The fact that he ended up living anyway, kinda took away some of the impact from that line.

if you didnt follow manga when TYBW was coming out the you wouldnt know that Kubo initially planed to kill Byakuya in that moment but after that chapter came out for at least entire week or longer Kubo consistently received death threats and other type of harassment from "angry" Byakuya fans that "forced" him to keep Byakuya alive

The byakuya fake out enraged me to no end as well my dude. it happened in the manga 10 some odd years ago and I can still feel the tilt to this very day

This was genuinely one of the best videos I’ve seen in a while, made me laugh multiple times

I agree 100 that Kenpachi vs Unohana shouldve been longer but in terms of its short fight and pacing i loved it. Ive watched that part more than any other so far cuz the music, the background, the story and the voice acting just wrap the fight like a heated blanket with arm holes sitting in a giant beanbag while also having a cup holder and table tray next to a mini fridge. It was phenomenal! The way she said bankai and playtime is over followed up by my mans excitement demon scream was perfect. I couldnt imagine it better. Fucking chills!

One of the greatest, not exaggerated, non-biased reviews I've seen of TYBW.

One really cool thing that was glossed over for time was at the beginning of the arc them talking about who would replace the Yamamoto as the head of 1st division as he was getting older and with his missing arm there were risks, and Yamamoto talks about how it has to either be Kyōraku or Ukitake, as they had the potential to surpass even him since they are the only two who’s zanpakto were almost completely split into two swords, but that they were still connected to each other, and it would be someone almost impossibly strong who could have two independent swords as their zanpakuto...... and then like 30 issues later, Ichigo gets his new zanpakuto that is two completely separate blades

byakuya was actually supposed to be dead but Tite kubo kept him around due to fan backlash when it happened in the manga.they even removed lines from the anime where they said he died.

You missed an important but subtly delivered point. (Or just avoided complicating things) Ichigo's dad isn't just a captain, but a noble. Nobility in soul society is typically naturally gifted with talent and big d!ck energy in the form huge spiritual pressure. It calls back to the compliments Byakuya hands out while he's boxing with Ichigo way back when. Isshin is from the Shiba clan which means Ichigo is related to Kaien (dude who looks just like Ichigo with black hair who was absorbed by the Espada killed by Rukia) He's related to Kukaku and Ganju from when they broke into the Seireitei with the cannon.

I absolutely loved that the studio completely took straight from the manga and they stuck to the same art style and it looks amazing. Idk how it didn't win anime of 2022 but it's definitely one of my favorite animes. It's crazy cuz it ranked 15th place by the time the series ended so alot of fans lost interest in the series. With tite being sick and shonen jump promising tite 50 chapters to wrap up but instead forced him to finish it with a few chapters, I thought we would never get the anime back. After 10 years of hopefully being patient, with the false advertisement of bleach coming back for a few years I'm glad it gained enough traction for the studio to pick it up. Like I'm so happy I was crying when I watched the first episode cuz of how much I missed the series and how joyed I was when it finally hit the screens again. I'm glad they are doing the anime justice. Can't wait for more.

Him: "I'm a huge bleach fan" Also him: "I didn't know Kenpachi was a title" 💀💀💀

Haven’t watched yet but I’m so damn hyped!!!!! Thanks brother for your contribution and sharing your personality with all of us💯. Truly an amazing soul and person. Hope to meet you one day.

Surprised you didn't mention anything about Ichigo's inner mind dialogue with his latent Quincy powers, but it was very fun! You'll love what comes in July

Genuinely the only anime I cared for last year I don’t know why other anime don’t hit the same like bleach for me

In the manga alot of fans hated the fact Byakuya was alive but the decision to not kill him was due to the flood of fangirls at Kubo's neck

Gotta love when the thing you love comes back and is made by people who actually want to do it justice and not people who want to change everything just because they can and get mad at the fans for not liking it

5:46 He can purge me too 😌😂😂

A decade of waiting for my favorite anime to return, and I can say it was definitely worth the wait! BLEACH GREATNESS

Awesome breakdown! Loved hearing your take because it felt so much like how I felt watching this after years of not having Bleach around!

How they adapt what's coming next is going to be very interesting since that's when the controversial nature of this arc starts to show up , but considering the fact that they already exspanded on the story with the Uryu scenes and Kubo saying there will an all new fight for part 2 , I am very hopefull

This video is poppin off! Can't wait to see your reactions to season 2

bruh the editing on this one has me dying on the floor. The Revive sign on that one dead soulreaper haha BRUH 12:50 the Death note ost hits so hard

I love this video. Thank you. Your comments were hilarious but truthful.

I had to sub after hearing you go ham on bleaches return what an amazing come back I'm a super fan like your self. Much love to this piece you made recognizing the beauty that was created for tybw.

Naaah man, you had me laughing way too many times. I died with the “back to the future fire trail” 😭✨ Love this, lee it up. Imma need you to do another one of these when the 2nd cour comes out

Great video, and like everyone else, i can't help but agree with the takes. It just exceeded every possible expectation. I can't imagine someone disliking what they put on screen. Especially if you put in the time (love it or hate it) to finish the original series. It felt like every person that was a part of making this was a fan, and they put that love into the project and it came out on screen.

The new TYBW arc was such an amazing adaptation and even created some parts of the manga even better. I loved when Ichigo kicked Ebern out of his room Orihime held the window open Understandable about the Byakuya part, Kubo originally was going to have him go out at this fight but during the time it was coming out weekly the backlash that came with the intention was so bad he had to revive him.

Good god that whole bit of you dubbing Yamamoto burning the future NBA players got me laughing way too much

bro forgot that shinji ever existed 🗿

This is a fire video and the editing is too good👏

Thank you! I too agree that Byakuya should have been left dead (yes, I know it was meant to be but fans cried. Much like how Gohan was suppose to take over after Cell Saga but fans cried for Goku and look where we are now.), or at the least, not seeing him "alive" in the VERY NEXT episode. It 100% kills the gravity and the pure - ness of that scene. It shows the turn and change in Buyakauya. Once, fighting against Ichigo to follow the rules of his clan and kill his own sister, to begging Ichigo to save Soul Society and his Sister. When I heard it was being brought into anime, that was my one hope. That they'd change it back, leave him dead, or even keep it a surprise for much later in like "season" 2 or 3.

This is the best review I've ever heard! I'm subscribed good sir. 👍

I waited for the entire first season of the tybw because i knew i was gonna bing the hell out of it in one night and i did and it was totally worth it

the aphex twin sound byte you added when yamamoto yells and sends the tiles flying back at ywach, did not go unnoticed, nice touch! 🤣

The nardo wick track was a nice touch! 🔥

I think the worst part about watching this is that you have to wait for months before the next part of the season Comes out

Always enjoy ur content bro

keep doing what you doing this vid had me rolling w the editing n nba references and yama’s crazy bankai

Your sense of humor had me cracking up, fun vid!

The fact that when Ichigo kicked the dude off of his bed Orihime is just sitting there holding the window open like it's a normal Monday for them just got me man XD she knew what was about to happen and was like "here Kurosaki-kun, lemme make sure this dumbass doesn't break your window while he's flying out"

We need more of Orihime ! Hope season 2 have.. plenty.

They made us wait 10 years! But the quality of Bleach we have now was worth it 😁

BRO.... I just found this video, and I feel like you speaking FOR ME on this one. You got a new sub outta me. LET'S GO!!!

Bro when he got there he didn’t even flash step he used Sonído 14:26

Fire video mayne😭🔥

The editing was mirachulously epic xD

I enjoyed this vid so much I'd love to hear to hear the 60min unedited version

As far as I'm concerned the contest for anime of the year is between Bleach and Chainsaw Man. Maybe Attack on Titan can make this a 3 way contest.

the reason byakuya wasn't killed off was because kubo received thousands of death threats for it. he had planned to kill off byakuya originally, but the fans' outrage went too far so he had to not kill byakuya

Bro your commentary had me dying dude 🔥🔥

The editing is crazy good🔥🔥

and it's only just begun!!!

Explaining Byakuya, there is three possible things that happened with only one being confirmed. 1. Kubo received a lot of spam and harassment to the point he closed his twitter account when the manga chapter dropped online and it was HATED lmaaaooo, those fans were upset. This leads to two conclusions. 1. The spam caused him to just reverse the decision and 2. His editor changed it for him but neither have been really confirmed.

The lightning bbqing old man Yama’s bald head was funny, but 9:07 the yelling killed me🤣🤣🤣 bro you get a like and a sub for that one

I had a good laugh, thanks man... Loved Bleach too especially this arc

As someone who randomly started this show a few months ago without any knowledge of this new season, or the show in general, shit started to drag a ton towards the end. It was repetitive and exhausting and I thought it was over after 366, but thanks to a Hulu rec, I saw this. This season COMPLETELY blew me away. They’re almost 2 different shows. I was gripped, emotional and in awe of the writing and animation. Now that I’m keyed in on the perception of this show over the years, it’s good to see everyone seems on the same page.

honestly one of my favorite reviews of cour 1

Enjoyed the vid bro nice comments and good edit

#EARLYGANG YO VIDS FIRE DAWG (EDIT: EZ FIRST COMMENT)

zaraki was stronger than unohana back when they first met. And since she's the strongest one around, if he let his power grow he would have to endure lame battles because he would just win easily. And so he limits his power so he can enjoy battle, his eyepatch is an indication of this. And unohana felt sorry for this. She felt the same too, so her method is learning to heal so they ca fight longer

Most entertaining bleach recap I've ever seen man great video

Fu king dope video bro lol had me cracking up. Great editing too. You just got a subscriber mah dude.

Bro Byakuya made me cry when he lost his bankai. All he could do was stand there and accept it. Took all his pedals with gusto. He grew up with that sword. Literal tears. Like at least Toshiro bankai does the same thing as his bankai on a somewhat smaller scale. Whereas Byakuya goes from 1000 pedals to millions. His shikai can’t do a thing to his bankai. How’d you know my favorite character is based on Bankai release. Aside from Uryu who has no bankai Senbonzakura Kageyoshi Hihyo Zabimaru Toshiro’s Minazuki Spoiler alert: Sakkashima Yokoshima Happofusagari

Kubo intended to kill Byakuya off with that, but he literally got angry letters and d threats from readers. So editors advised him to bring Byakuya back

This video is amazing. You gained a subscriber from me! Just started Bluelock and looking forward to those videos!

For that deep dive into orihime's "bread products" I'm subbing

I recommend you to read the manga, it was lit from the beginning. The original anime down played the manga so much... Only this new adaptation has part of the original quality. Also, Ichigo being a quincy can be noted from chap 1 (he absorbs all Rukia reiatsu, quincy move), the menos grande fight (he absorbs the cero and has a implosion because cant deal with it), and when "old man zangetsu" teachs him how to stand on air. Zang says "absorb the reiatsu in air and solidify it". But this is the quincy way to do it. Shinigamis use the reiatsu inside them to project the platform. White Ichigo always said he was the real zangetsu, always called him "king", etc Also, Byakuya was meant to die there, but kubo recieved so much hate and death threats on twitter (and even on his own house if im not mistaken) that he retired from social sites (he still off them until this day) and "revived" Byakuya.

the anime was way better than I had hoped. one always prepares oneself for disappointment, but this was great. I could watch that scene with Yamamoto instantly burning that guy to ashes an infinite amount of times. Episode 6 with all the forms of Yamamoto's Bankai was insane, and as always, spectacular music. props to the clone tho. I don't remember the manga that well, but apparently Yhwach's clone that Yamamoto faced copied his memories, while the other clone copied people's abilities. So this clone copied Yhwach's memories but faced Yamamoto using his own level of power, and somehow managed to convincingly survive with his own power. No wonder then that Yamamoto realized he was outclassed when facing the real Yhwach's level of power. It is also cool that Ichigo's fight with Yhwach looks totally different than the Yamamoto fight. He's essentially fighting the same opponent, but they managed to make the fight look and feel completely different.

Hahaha waaaaait this editing is fire. I’m not familiar with your videos but you got me laughin. Dang. Extreme Bleach fan over here, thank you for the fantastic content 👏🏼

This commentary is electric, had me wheezing. Keep it up

The roasts were hilarious

It was so crazy that I had almost wanted to turn it off too from just like being so damn good and clean I was about to cry. I mean now looking back at some things that they had done it could have been better definitely better with some design color choices and soundtracks in the background but everything else was just lovely.

the zanpaktou kneeling before ichigo was the most hyped scene. he got the sword and the ocean evaporated... THE OCEAN EVAPORATED

The "killing" of byakuya was actually meant to be his death but the fan backlash and the insane amount of hate and death threats that Kubo was receiving, he was pressured into keeping byakuya alive. I'm guessing they didn't change this in the anime since he's already changed the story to have him play an important role ltr on

The only problem i had was that the fights were way too short tbh. I wish we had more episodes of the fights and especially more explanation of Unohanas bankai, and in general to add more stuff that wasn't in the manga that could help fish out the story more. But apart from that it was really a great season

Yo bro, bad ass video. Amazing commentary. Just too funny and very good.

Love the JID beat in the background

the byuakuya death was supposed to happen, but when that manga chapter released people were pissed at kubo, sent him death threats so he was forced to bring byuakuya to life

Anyone else mad at the fact that this was the only arc rushed??? They rushed the entire thing after us waiting YEARSSSS for this how cruel

Dude ur so funny and I love and feel your excitement over everything about the show Bleach mate. No structure no problem lmao. 😂 I enjoyed this vid. 🎉

Im just a random bleach fan, who stumbled in here, and good thing that I did! I'm 6mins in, and this review is fire, haha, good stuff man. Edit: Yooooo, gimme that 70mins bro!

I am so with you on hating byakuya surviving. Theres been a rumor for a while that kubo always intended to kill him but didn't due to fans sending hate mail and death threats. It steams from how little he features after this point in the manga. How when he does appear its actually better if you think of him as a particular characters memories of him(trying not to spoil) rather than him actually being there. Its never been confirmed but it makes alot of sense given how perfect a death for him this is

Title got me to click so fast wanted to see what you would say. I read the manga years ago. So glad to see the first core animated. Trust me there is WAY MORE INTERESTING fights

subbed based on the intro. Unahona saying Minazuki is just my climax point.

the mental image of stern ritters skydiving into the seretei from the battlebus will never not be funny

Only saw the intro at this point, gotta make a comment. I did the exact same thing. 10 years ago, I tried reading the TYBW arc in manga, but I stopped, actually soon after what's to come in the next couple episodes. I stopped because I heard a rumour back then that they were gonna animate it, so I put it down and patiently waited 10 whole years for it to come lmao.

I enjoyed your enthusiasm a lot.

The thing with Byakuya is that in the manga when the chapter came out and he supposedly died. He got the levi treatment all the fan girls and boys rioted and sent death threats to the author so he saved him

playing "Rain" during the byakuya and ichigo scene was a nice touch 😂

Subscribed to ya man awesome video! love to see vids like this

Loved the video. Definitely got a new subscriber.
