Bleach episode 204 review

Foreign debts, homeless vets, AIDS, crack, Bernie Goetz…
Rurichiyo’s back! Why? Because this is filler, filler night, and no one’s gonna save you from the crap about to strike. In this episode, Rurichiyo and Kenryu have a fight to the death over a game of kemari. I’m being literal here. When Kenryu loses his argument with Rurichiyo, he threatens suicide. Like that’s going to help. Aside from this being stupid, it’s also irresponsible for the millions of people watching this episode worldwide. Remember, suicide is a permanent solution for a temporary problem. And making light of it like in this episode is a big no-no with me.
But that’s just me going on my soapbox. Eventually things get resolved, then immediately unresolved, and then the two of them stake their lives on a game of kemari. As much as I want to put this down, I specifically remember the episode with the game being especially memorable. We’ll see how that goes down tomorrow.
Best girl of the episode: Rurichiyo (6) (reluctantly to the brat)
Episode rating: 5/10
