WHY MAYURI WAS IMPRISONED | MAYURI’S INSANE DARK PAST! | BLEACH Explained 

Mayuri to this date is probably the most complex character in bleach, I can't tell if this dude, is actually a hero, anti hero, anti villain or just a straight up villain 😂😂

Mayuri demonstrated that him not being considered a war potential was a big mistake.

Mayuri reminds me all too much of the scientists of Unit 731 who conducted experiments that would horrify even the Nazis but were given not only free pardons, but also important consultation positions after WWII with the Allies.

Man, i love his quote about "PERFECTION" when he fought Szayel

He was a part of Senjumaru's group of scientists that likely did some unethical experiments and after Senjumaru got promoted to 0 squad, Mayuri and his gang got imprisoned.

Mayuri is the GOAT, he's such a dynamic character, I don't think there's a character as complex as he is, Urahara is a close second to me!!

At first you look at Mayuri and think "ugh what a b@stard" then battle comes and you meet Sal who is the twisted Espada version of Dr. Frankenstein and when facing someone like that you find yourself glad it is Mayuri that showed up to show this guy what the word twisted really ment. Then you see how messed up and vile the Quincy are and one cannot wait for Mayuri to show up and teach these Quincy where they stand in the bigger horror picture they are now find themselves in. So it is indeed a strange feeling to have disgust in such a character and then to feel glad he is on your side when the chips fall.

These intel to their past I think perfectly explains why Mayuri is the way he is. He doesn't hate Urahara as a person, he hated that he was for the second time at the mercy of someone more intelligent and prominent than he was. Whatever bad blood was between him and Senjumaru, she became uncomfortable when she was promoted into the royal guard.

Mayuri is such a great character. He has some of the best fights, quotes and development in the series. And he was the definitive MVP of the TYBW. Definitely one of the best characters in the series!

It probably deals with him working with Senjumaru in her inventor's faction she was the leader of. After she left he probably was put in Maggot's Nest due to Senjumaru not being in control similar to how he was when Kisuke was leader of the Research and Development Institution.

I know that Kubo said he wasn’t imprisoned for trying to take over the soul society. He probably was too dangerous and scared the higher ups with his vast growing knowledge and experimentations. Think about how in TYBW he defeated multiple enemies who in terms of raw power were stronger than him but he just outsmarted every single one of them. That’s probably why they didn’t want him moving around freely.

still wild that Mayuri went from being imprisoned to end up as one of the biggest saviors of the TYBW

hmm no mention of that answer kubo put up in klub outside of how mayuri used to be part of a rogue scientist group led by senjumaru before the research development squad was made.

I wonder if Mayuri's imprisonment has anything to do with his research into the Soul King. Maybe during (or after) working under Senjimaru he went too far with his experiments by trying to break into the Soul Palace to study Reio & Central 46 and/or Zero Squad had him confined. If so, Senjimaru may have vouched for Mayuri to not be executed, but instead imprisoned in Maggot's Nest.

There have been several Shinigami that resigned. Chikane Iba, Ginjirō Shirogane, Seinosuke Yamada & Marenoshin Ōmaeda

Finding out that Nemu was actually number 7 was wild, and it made Mayuri extremely human when you found out he named her Nemu Kurotsuchi BECAUSE she was his masterpiece. Dude loved his creation.

Great bleach review

He’s been one of my fav captains since he took down Espada 8. Seeing him go all out against the arm of the soul king was beyond epic.

Mayuri is really one of the most funniest and interested Bleach characters in Bleach, i'm interested how he looks like that and can turn into green mucus and defienitily i'm interested of the backstory how Mayuri and Nemu meet or how Mayuri even created Nemu. Nemu's one of the most beautiest Bleach female characters. I really hope to see the backstory of Mayuri and Nemu in Bleach Thousand Year Blood War Cour 3 after this video. Can't wait Cour 3, i'm so excited hype is over 9,000! 😍❤🔥🔥

Loved the vid! Bit of a darker take from me but theoretically Mayuri could've just gone and experimented some cocktail of his on his teachers at the academy. He dislikes anyone with authority over him, he despises anyone less intelligent and hates anyone who's smarter than him and he loves to experiment on others. This either could've happened or was about to happen when they locked him up as he rarely tries to hide anything he's doing.

Awesome video

Mayuri w the coke nail makes early Mayuri makes sense 😂😂😂

The weird modifications of his body are almost certainly all some type of enhancement. Even the different headdresses probably serve different purposes. IRL they probably were just excuses for Kubo to be creative.

I think Mayuri’s devotion to SS is so bizarrely important to him that’s what led him to being locked up in the Hornet’s Nest. He’s known for experimenting on other shinigami without clearance. My best guess is he did something unethical but it was beneficial to SS their only response out of fear of his capabilities was to arrest him. Urahara saw his potential and made a deal with him.

Nobody loves Mayuri more than Kubo... man, could you imagine a prequel series with him.

Mayuri is just mad as hell. Sometimes intelligence results in a monster.

I always took it as a battle strategy. Because he’s off putting and maybe to cause fear in opponents. It also could serve to make him less approachable so people leave him alone while he’s working 🤔

Why isn't his connection to Senjumaru mentioned at all in this video? She's on the thumbnail. There was that Klub Outside answer about him being in a research group she ran before she was promoted to the zero division.

Kurotsuchi Taicho, is my favorite for sure!!!

Solid video mane.

I want to know how Mayuri came to be personally acquainted with Senjumaru before she joined the Royal Guard.

There were multiple cases where the Soul Society locked people away for no reason

Do you have a video on maggots nest

Okay how about this, as a student mayuri found out that some noble family has a very very rare item that he wanted to experiment on. That item was a piece of the soul King that was extracted from existing fullbrings whom were getting delivered to tsunayashiro. And he stole a body.

He is my favorite captain for sure!

He’s basically Rick Sanchez: science and deduction don’t need to fear anyone. The moment you think you’ve outsmarted Mayuri is the moment you lose. He’s got all the information (except Uruhara) and he won’t share unless he needs to. Just make him burp every three words.

Mayuri is one of my favorite characters in Bleach, he is a version of Ourchimaru if he was on the good side.

I suspect that Mayuri was imprisoned because he would do anything in the name of advancing his scientific knowledge, and that he had to be chained to keep him from experimenting on his fellow prisoners or provoking them into attacking him. He finds Urahara irritating because he always somehow seems to be a step or two ahead, as well as manipulative. Note that Mayuri would've turned down Kisuke's offer if not for the promise that he would be Director of Research if Urahara died (or was indisposed). Freedom to conduct research as he saw fit (one day), with the full resources of the Soul Society, was the offer Urahara knew he couldn't resist. Captains, it seems, have considerable latitude in running their divisions, and as a practical matter only Urahara and Aizen would have the chops to even understand what he was doing. The one other consideration is that Mayuri was, on the whole, pretty loyal to the Soul Society. Just like Aizen was less interested in destroying the Soul Society than changing how things were run, Mayuri is smart enough to understand that the status quo supports his ongoing research. As long as that support remains forthcoming, he has no reason to rock the boat. Indeed, he will even take it on himself to make sure things run smoothly, like when he purged all those souls in Rukongi to maintain balance without securing permission first. And when Yamamoto called him on it, he basically just said it was necessary. And old man Yama accepted it, because while the act was monstrous, he wasn't wrong. And as long as Mayuri stays within that boundary, the Soul Society will overlook his excesses, because he's the "hero" they need, if not the one they want.

He was probably related to the previous scientist who was making bounts. there is no set time when Mayuri was but she was alive a while before and that soul experiment then brought Mayuri into the fold and was set up as the pastee in this sense he was sentenced while she ran away and hid. the funny thing is that his been a scientist thus his standing in a high security prison doesn't make sense when the warden allowed him free exchange.

Can you make a video on, How to kill ichigo????? How difficult to kill him since we know that zangetsu will always save him. Interesting topic isn't it?

Mayuri is definitely up there for MVP of the war

He almost certainly ran afoul of someone powerful while his skills and expirements were deemed potentially dangerous to the status quo due to the boundaries they push. Maybe he fatally expiremented on some noble's relative and was only spared execution due to his work still being seen as invaluable. Whatever the case, he certainly contributed to Soul Society's survival in the war even if he's someone who'd normally be hanged in our world for obvious reasons.

don't forget MAYURI have perfect JP VA - Ryūsei Nakao.

Sob is just entertaining ... In all Anime and manga characters we know, every time a character arrives at a fight location we go like: yeah, now the scales are gonna turn ... Or yeah the heros are saved ... But when this sob shows up you KNOW its goning to be intersting, sick, and deadly ... you KNOW he will just WIN buts a matrer off how 😂

I feel like the senjumaru thing wasn't thought out enough by kubo And the additional bit about that in klub outside was him trying to make it fit (it still kinda doesn't) But hey, all mangakas have off days. No biggie

Mayuri = Frieza

Mayuri is the sort of man whose research shouldn't be slept on since he didn't care about the reaper cushions.

credits for artist of Senjumaru in the thumbnail please?

I thought Mayuri genetically changed his body, which is why he looks so crazy. It seems less likely that he paints his entire body every day. I would imagine he has like 10-100 different versions of his own body. Like Iron Man suits, made for specific purposes. But I think any and all of your theories are valid. He's smart and dangerous across the board!

So if this makes sense, the council of the soul society was terrified of Mayuri because he was super exceedingly smart and able to do haikaido haido sorry, at such a fast pace? This deemed him a terror level threat. Okay, Zaraki, another shinigami deemed a terror threat because he was so strong and if he would've completed learning from Yamamoto he would probably turn against the sereitei by their fears of others that have great potential? That's both brains and brawns that were a major help to the soul society.😂 They feared a lot of stuff then and plus they're akin to each other in the friend department (one experiments and hates stupidity as well as simple made biological experiments from other scientists.) (The other utilizing strength and power in fighting within a desire of bloodlust and love fighting, yet can be great in war tactics) they feared gifted individuals! Thank you Urahara and Yamamoto and Ukitake for believing in them

How much stronger would Itchigo be if he was properly trained by the soul society?

That great and typical secretary I like very much and rely on

I feel like Mayuri is the most competent captain and deserves more power and responsibilities than he already has. I could easily see him running Soul Society well after Old Man Yama

I have to agree the soul society is very corrupt not all of them but the ppl in charge it really makes you want to route for Yhwach or anyone who wants to take it down but it is the fact Ichigo helps them after he knows what they did I don't know if he knew what they were going to do to him when he got to the soul palace but then changed their mind but it really makes me dislike them also in a way Mayuri looks a lot better compared to the soul society not completely but still (IMO)

See what had happened was he knows to much about the soul king

I bet he was in prison for modifying his zapakto. We know he does it and has done it before, he says as much. I think the first time people found out he was thrown in prison as a dangerous lunatic

The chain is not to immobilize him physically. How would anyone feel if they're chained like an animal?

I always thought mayuri was a zetsu from Naruto like being and not human so it just being face paint shocked me

He might need to sent back there.

Mayuri 'The God Slayer'

Mayuri the MVP

Should of gave that to the old man the head captain definitely needed 2 arms against ywach

I feel like the character picked up popularity and he was written to be shown in a better light

Mayuri probably was imprisoned for his experiments, and his willingness to use squad members for research/ suicide missions against their will. (Without significant reason. )

Who imprisoned him Yoruichi Shihouin of the second squad ?

Mayuri kinda reminds me of Orichimaru idk why 😂

mayuri drippy tho 🔥🔥🔥

Mayuri will loose his mind if uryu alone defeat senjumaru considering she is his master.

He is antisocial, and awkward, but he's not malevolent. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he didn't admit that he killed those Quincies. It was assumed they were killed by shinigamis and recently we learnt it could be Auswahlen. Maruyi is a genius so he doesn't need living specimens to learn their techniques.

Like it or not every country in the world has a Mayuri high enough government positions

Him being a prodigy at the academy does not make sense as a primary reason for landing him in the Maggots nest. Kaien Shiba was in the academy for 2 years and Gin as well as Tōshirō were in for 1. They were likely way more gifted in that way than Mayuri.

He pretty much the Orochimaru of Bleach

After countless failures...while named number 7.

They should put him back........

He is basically robot in the invincible series 😂 hope he doesnt dominate the world like him tho

Ok so we are not talking about that one time he stab himself and turned liquid just for him to become whole again...

Ah orochimaru’s friend.

He is just like orochimaru in naruto

I've said this since istarted watching bleach Mayuri respects intelligence not raw power there's only been 3 people he doesn't talk reckless to and that urahara(probablyspelledthat wrong), the chick from zero squad, and unahana (also spelled that wrong) and you can say the head captain but that's just cause of the job or to keep his freedom but it's not respect

I wouldn't mind trusting Mayuri with my own life I'm not gonna lie.

Clearly He was imprisoned by the Soul Society because He drained them of all their white body paint.

He's basically orochimaru right?

🤔 he let himself been imprisoned cuz he wanted to study the effects on himself

Mayuri is the orochimaru of bleach

💨 🚬

WTF are you talking about? His face paint looks nothing like the joker

He doesn't look human does he experimented on himself

It’s just a reminder of how the soul society is full to fascists

Spoiler... Mayuri should've died in TYBW. It pisses me off that he survived a hole in his chest. Completely bullshit plot armour.

The video talk so much yet telling nothing
