Bleach 259: It tastes just like chicken

Bleach episode 259 review

Behind those glasses is one of the most fascinating characters in the Bleach series: Nanao Ise. I don’t think her relation to Shunsui has been even told yet, so I’ll spare you from that, but Nanao is such a conflicted individual, super strict yet also super innocent. In this episode, she has the “honor” of getting caught in tentacles after being the brains behind an operation with Ikkaku, Hanataro, and Ikkaku’s Zanpakuto.

And to think this episode is all about Hanataro’s stolen chickens! What a bizarre, weird episode. Basically, the four I mentioned in the previous paragraph all go together to save Hanataro’s chickens, which are in the Seireitei sewer. I am not making this up.

Eventually, the chickens are saved, but everyone’s sanity is lost in the process. There’s a big long explanation to the situation that honestly doesn’t make all that much sense, but it’s filler so we can do whatever we want. This episode was very much like Rick Warren on Steve TV… bizarre.

Best girl of the episode: Nanao (5)

Episode rating: 6/10
