Bleach episode 230 review
I distinctly remember hating this arc the first time around. I’m giving it a fair chance this time around, though. I checked out early and never really paid much attention as the episodes went by. This time, I’m going to try to enjoy it as much as I can.
Basically, all the zanpakutos rebel against their holders, and manifest in humanoid form to oppose the Soul Reapers. It’s an interesting concept; not much different is “they aren’t sealing the Bankai; they’re stealing it!” from TYBW. So, in that case, the Soul Reaper has no powers, but they’ve got to figure out a way to win without their zanpakuto. It’s sort of like Q on Star Trek: The Next Generation: “I have no powers!” “Q the liar! Q the misanthrope!”
Best girl of the episode: Rangiku (30) (only one of three girls to reach 30 wins)
Episode rating: 7/10
