Bleach episode 229 review

We never get a conclusion to the tentacles on the beach, which is just as good, because now we get an episode about Ikkaku and Mizuho. That’s right, Keigo’s sister is the star of this episode, all happy because Ikkaku comes and stays at her place. But there’s a catch: Ikkaku goes and gets a wig, which makes her hate him because he no longer has a shaved head, and she goes and kicks him and Yumichika out. Wacky antics ensue, until Ikkaku is finally able to save Mizuho’s life from the Hollow.
It’s a filler episode, so what do you expect? At one point, Yumichika says, “This is getting old fast,” which I think is a perfect description of the filler. But hey, we got some humor in here, and an entertaining episode for the moment. Just don’t use superglue the next time you put on a wig, okay?
Best girl of the episode: Mizuho (4)
Episode rating: 7/10
