Bleach episode 218 review
So, Yumichika kills off Charlotte, after a long and complicated reasoning that included what color his zanpakuto liked best. Meanwhile, Shuhei Hisagi, the “69 guy” who has no other distinguishing features, fights an opponent that can raise his power levels at will. How original. Ikkaku and Izuru also battle opponents on their level.
And one can’t help but wonder why any of this matters. These are all Lieutenants fighting Fracciones. There’s no real stakes here. The actual battles haven’t begun yet. This is just a way of showing off these Lieutenants and giving them something to do. It’s actually quite boring.
Best girl of the episode: Rukia (43) (because of the post-credits scene)
Episode rating: 5/10
