Bleach episode 248 review
Muramasa’s true goal is revealed: he wants to awaken a Soul Reaper named Koga, which he will accomplish by terrorizing Karakura Town, which of course is yet again the center of the universe. Muramasa goes off there, but not before running into Orihime, Chad, and Uryu, who finally make appearances in this arc. And of course Orihime heals Muramasa, because why not? She just can’t help herself.
Ichigo & pals now need to escape Muramasa’s lair, which predictably involves Ichigo launching an all-out attack with “Number One” playing in the background. Yoruichi is still dealing with Haineko and Momo’s Zanpakuto, which seems like a sideshow at this point. And this incredibly jumbled plot continues on. It just doesn’t make sense, except for Old Man Yama acting like an idiot. Now that part makes a lot of sense.
Best girl of the episode: Orihime (38) (edging out Yoruichi)
Episode rating: 6/10
