Bleach Thousand Year Blood War episode 14 review
So, everything gets reset in this episode. Ichigo’s training in the Squad 0 lair, Orihime and Chad are training in Hueco Mundo, and Renji and Rukia are training as well. Uryu has joined the ranks of the Quincys and now has been named Yhwach’s successor. And now the Quincys plan on destroying the Soul Society in nine days. These are going to be the longest nine days of our lives.
The most interesting part of this episode is when new Head Captain Shunsui shows up in the world of the living to tell Ichigo’s pals that there’s a 1-in-10,000 shot that Ichigo may never come back, so here’s a few bus tickets to the Soul Society just in case! The concept of the “Soul Pass” might be one of the ironically funny things in Bleach. This entire scene made absolutely no sense, but what made even less sense was that Tatsuki barely got a word in while Ichigo’s other two friends did all the talking. Didn’t Tatsuki use to be important? I thought she was Ichigo’s best friend. Why is she being shoved to the side like this? I wanted to give my “best girl” to her today, but I’m afraid it’s going to have to go elsewhere.
Overall, not a bad episode, but not all that great either.
Best girl of the episode: Orihime (3)
Episode rating: 6/10
