Bleach episode 39 review
This might have been the best episode yet, if it hadn’t been for the time spent in Zangetsu World. Seriously, I hate the episodes that are wasted in Zangetsu World. It’s not very entertaining TV.
But the rest of the episode was fantastic. Kenpachi goes all out, removing his eye patch. And Ichigo goes all out, buoyed on by Zangetsu World. Okay, so maybe it wasn’t all a waste after all.
At the end of the fight, Ichigo goes down. The payoff doesn’t come until next episode, though. Just an awesome display of shounen one-on-one battling that makes even the most cynical part of me… happy.
Happy peoples in the house!
Best girl of the episode: Yachiru (5) (literally the only female to appear in this episode)
Episode rating: 9/10
