Bleach episode 265 review

It’s the final episode of the Zanpakuto arc, and they’ll never appear again. Rangiku gets drunk alongside Haineko, when the big boss of the Sword Beasts arrives. Now the Zanpakuto need to go back into their swords in order to allow the Soul Reapers the opportunity to defeat the enemy, so they do, conveniently exiting the show just in time for the filler arc to end. With all their powers combined, the Soul Reapers defeat the big boss and end this arc for good.
What did I think about this arc? Well, it certainly wasn’t as bad as I remember it being. It wasn’t great, either, but there’s really nothing to complain about here. It did its job – it filled in the gap. Was it as good as either of the two previous filler arcs? No, but it didn’t have to be. It just had to find a way to entertain, even if mildly. And I was entertained. So, good job, Zanpakuto arc, you succeeded. Now it’s time for the real stuff to begin.
