Bleach 72: You can’t run away from water

Bleach episode 72 review

Ichigo and Rukia get into a pointless argument, and then sit in silence as a faucet keeps dripping away. Angered by the noise, Rukia goes to fix the faucet, only to find water pouring more and more. Soon enough, the sink is overflowing. Then the water takes on a life of its own and tries to drown Uryu and Chad. Ichigo’s plan for fighting the water? Run away!

Obviously, the water is being controlled by Bounts, but I think it’s a little funny that Ichigo is running away like this. It’s clearly non-canon Ichigo who is quite the coward. Soon enough, the gang make it out of the hospital after all their running away, only to find out: it’s raining.

Not the best episode, exactly. Some good humor, but Ichigo constantly running away from poison gas, or water, isn’t exactly the most interesting plotline.

Best girl of the episode: Rukia (16)

Episode rating: 6/10
