Bleach episode 60 review
Oh yes, we’ve reached the point, the high point, the climax, the top of the mountain for Bleach. It doesn’t get any better than this. Momo follows Toshiro and Rangiku into Central 46, where the former two have just found everyone dead. Izuru Kira draws their attention and gets them out of there, while Momo goes in alone. That’s when Aizen appears, and Momo is beyond overjoyed. She puts all her trust in Aizen, and then…
BOOM!
That’s right, Aizen stabs her. It is the pinnacle of this series. When I saw this for the first time, I was blown away. What an awesome heel turn moment. Everything from the entire arc suddenly gets put into a new perspective when this happens. And before you can catch your breath, Toshiro finds out. He goes and attacks Aizen, and Aizen easily defeats him. Then Unohana and Isane show up.
Unohana seems to be the smartest person in the room, yet even she is deceived by Aizen’s illusions. One man isn’t – that’s Kaname Tosen. For reasons not yet divulged, he is on Aizen’s side as well, as he stops Renji and Rukia from getting away. Aizen disappears and leaves, then reappears on Sokyoku Hill, where he plans on doing something dastardly. Poor Unohana… the most screen time she’ll ever get will be when she decides to sacrifice herself for Kenpachi Zaraki’s benefit.
This was an amazing episode, and no one can tell me otherwise.
Best girl of the episode: Unohana
