[Riekie]

Loooove to Weils!!!

Zomg, they definitely love the Szayel fight:love

[spacecat]

I already know what they did to the eating scene... >_> *watches anyways* thanks for posting.

[Riekie]

NOOOOEEE WAAAY!!!!
WHAT KIND OF CENSORING IS THAT:mad::cry

Tch...no one's loving Grimmjow here:( Ugly-ass grimmjow:(

Yaaaaaay for next week though, it's gonna be AWESOME!!

[Weils]

I already know what they did to the eating scene... >_> *watches anyways* thanks for posting.

Mm...I have not seen that part in the manga version, how was it like?

Anyway, it's so cool seeing Ishida do that Quincy Zeichen thing on Syzael, plus Renji's extreme point blank kidou.

Is Ichigo technically dead before Orihime revived him? It was so heartbreaking hearing Nel cry her heart out...:( Next week's episode is going to be so great! :D

yeah it really was, I was surprised by that. Animation looks pretty nice this week.

Thanks Weils!

[Matoucs]

pretty good ep this week ! The szayel eating his fraccion was a bit dissapointing but the good animation covered it !

[QUOTE=spacecat;246870]Take a look (sorry the pics are so massive):

It's indeed massive. :D Ok...If those blood spitting or dripping regularly gets censored or altered most of the time, I guess those pics you just showed me definitely won't make it in at all. But the manga seems to empathise a point with Syzael's cruelty and basic arrancar survival, it's such a shame it won't be animated, unless the studio wants to incur the wrath of any parents out there. :headscratch

[spacecat]

Yeah I know, I just wanted to see the arm hanging from his mouth :p

[juunana]

The szayel scene :cry:cry:cry I Looked forward to that scene so bad ><....darn censor :cry No doubt future moves of Szayel's will be censored too :cry Him walking around shirtless kinda helped :love
Ulquiorra looks so awesome in this :love, I really wanna see next week <3.

[dramaelfie]

Downright shame about the Szayel eating his fraccion scene. Although, I have to say, Szayel himself looked really good. :love

I almost lost it when Nel started crying for Ichigo. That was just heartbreaking to hear.

Animation wasn't spectacular, but it was good. Next week's will be even better. GRIMMJOW VS ULQUIORRA!!! GRIMMJOW VS ICHIGO!!! *dances around her room* :D

[Enth]

Wow, looks like the next episode is going to use up 3 chapters even with some Renji filler o____o

This episode was so well done. It's a shame about the chomp, they could have still done it so it "implied" she was eaten without actually showing it, without that change into an energy ball shiz :/ That was odd...

But wonderfully animated fight. Seriously it was sooo good. I knew it was gonna look great judging by last weeks preview which some people said looked horrible :/ Let this prove you wrong! Harr harr, although the Grimmy half had artwork that looked a little weird, overall this was awesome.

[Amy corE]

Thanks for the link! =D

Hmmm...GOOD episode.
Animation is not so bad as I thought.
Szayel's fight was well done except for the censored moment >_> Also Szayel's seyu did great job (as always). <3
Renji OWNZ xDDDD He is good at 'kamikaze kidou spells':lmao

I cried together with Nell. ITSYGO!!!:cry No, srsly.
Ichigo's reaction when he awoke was magnificent xDDDDDDDDDD Druggy xDDDDDDD "................Neru....da........Inoue.........?" and then "OMFG, GRIMMJOW?!?!".

Jeez I love Ulqui's face in the end. So freakin' deadly!:yell

[NightMare]

It was kinda good this episode,i like it

[tari101190]

great episode.

animation was the best, and there was alot of action and coolness.

that's all that matters.

[Raf]

Oh wow, I thought his episode was going to be subpar... Then I saw Peshee. It's hard to tell with comedy but I saw the way he was animated and I thought "wait a sec". Then I saw Renji and I knew it was good. You can actually tell how well the episode will be by looking at Szayel's hair, if there is a lot of divisions then it's all good ^_^

I was wondering how they were going to do the cannibalism scene... I was surprised they did this though, I thought it was going to do a lot of off camera chopping to were we saw parts of the scene and maybe a little blood or silhouettes, but this approach wasn't too bad... Although I do enjoy cannibalism. >_>

Next episode seems to have the same rocking power animation! I look forward to it ^_^.

[Fonsje]

I actually loved the Szayel scene [replacing the canibalism]. I think it worked out fine like that too. Glad to see not everyone was against it. Hopefully the animation quality doesn't fluctuate that much in these upcoming episodes.

Now bring on some awesome ass fighting already!

[vaizado]

Shame about the censoring, cause this episode was pretty nice.

[Velius]

The episode was done quite well. Only a couple of rough spots with both the animation and the music. I loved the Renji scene in the manga and it was great here too. The pacing for the next episode looks crazy fast. @.@ I would have liked an extended Grimm vs Ulq. Wouldn't have been the worst thing in the world. *shrugs*

[vaizado]

I got deja vu when I saw this scene:

Deja vu from where you ask?
http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u220/uveridiot/ichigoone.png
http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u220/uveridiot/ichigotwo.png

And i just realized, the fight Ive been looking forward to the most starts next week! ^_^

Out of all the fights in the manga so far, Ichigo vs Grimmjow is the one I want to see animated the most.

Hope they dont mess it up!

[Ulquiorra]

Ulquiorra looked freakin awesommmmeeee

good animation overall, i think. Much better than last weeks.

Ulquiorra vs Grimmjow and ending with Gran Rey Cero it seems next week.

EDIT: holy crap! no more five minute recaps..? n lol @ renji's retarded-proof technique that's sure to hit. n that's gotta be the best shinigami's cup there ever was.

n vaizado is right about that renji/ichigo stuff...was kinda mad at first but...guess it's something i can live with.



@spacecat: hey did you get to read my PM yet? i sent it to both you and Annie but haven't gotten a reply yet.

[ForteAnly]

Man this episode was really good. Minus the Szayel scene but I guess we should be expecting that by this time already. Ulquiorra vs. Grimmjow that is going to be awesome. I hope they do extend it a little bit though.

[RyougaSaotome]

I'd be shocked if anyone actually expected to make it through that scene without some heavy altering. Haha.

Great episode overall. You can always judge the animation quality, based solely on how well renji's Zanpakutou moves.

[Riekie]

May I just comment that it's HELLA sexy how Grimmjow pulls the cloth off of Orihime:inlove:wtf

*drooling*

Luckily I made a siggie out of it, so I can stare at it all night^^

[smach]

considering what we got last week, i'd give this episode i'd give this ep an 9/10.
- szayel censorship was tolerable...but ripping that fracion in half would've been hella-cool
- unless the raw provider's the one who shortened it, the recap wasn't long either.
- it was tight seeing grimjow unleash his pimpin on orihime
- then the baddest muthafuka showing up n scaring the shit out of everyone.
- n did i mention hat it was almost 90% cannon?

[Alba Meira]

Yeah the eating scene being changed was a major let down but the least they could have done was do that off screen the little orb part was just weak.

[flower]

You are SOOOOO right. With the cool lighting, I think it came off even better than in the manga!
*Stares at Riekie's sig all night*

I thought that the Szayel censorship was actually done pretty well. That was a good way to get across the point of what Szayel was doing without the blood and grossness, even though it lost its fun that way. :p

I guess we will at least get to see the beginning of Grimmy's release next week, since they showed him doing the sword-scratch thing in the preview for the next eppy. :yay

[edtide25]

Great episode! Can't wait for next week for epic fight!

[IngenuityGap]

Does Pessche like...not have a penis? :p

cause he landed right in that spot....

[bradc]

The episode was pure sex... Sexier than Grimmjow

[Shinrin]

Does Pessche like...not have a penis? :p

It's rather balls he must lag.

The penis can take hits, the balls... can easily make grown men hit the floor even from a small hit.

Hell ya! Epic bondage is win! Very nice sig you have there. ;)

:continues to cross fingers for excellent animation next week:

Definitely looking forward to the next few episodes!

Yeah the eating thing was kinda lame, but it works more or less.

[smach]

It's rather balls he must lag.

The penis can take hits, the balls... can easily make grown men hit the floor even from a small hit.when arancars break their mask, their shaft significantly shrinks...along with the two marbles below it.

Now all we need is a "duh da duh duuuun!" sound effect. XD Heeeere's Hime!!!

Does Pessche like...not have a penis? :p

Either that, or it's really small, since it doesn't even show through that skimpy loincloth of his. :nuts

[Soranushi]

I just watched the raw because I didn't want to wait for the episode to DL but Holy Shit! the animation was excellent:D best I've seen this whole arc. However the animation was lax when ever they showed Pesshe&Dondojack but since it was them it's acceptable:p, and It looks like the reason why the last episode had shitty animation was because they were concentrating on the next big fight. Another thing the Szayel eating his Fraccion edit was approached very well and I liked how they did it even though it was less graphic:). Anyway I was hoping they'd add a new part where it showed Grimm tying up Inoue and sneaking out of the main building ohwell:(. Oh yeah! when ever Nel is shown in HQ animation she tends to look way more Kawaii:che.

I give this episode a 8 out of 10 but It'll probably increase when I watch the HQ sub version.

[phantomfork]

haha, I just remembered, why did they make grimmjow throw up his hands like that? :rotflmao

[SiSL]

It was discussed a lot like "How the hell they are going to make it in anime?" and everyone knew it was going to get censored :p

Episode was REALLY good animated. And next episode looks awesome already.

[Mizu No Tenshi]

I'm glad this episode was animated so well. The Szayel fight was awesome (him in all his drama queen glory) and Renji's seiyuu is just pure win!!! And the Peshe scene was funny!!

Grimmy+Hime=Bondage FTW!!!! :nuts

Next episode seems to be very good!!!

Best Shinigami Cup EVAR!!! Funny as hell!!!

[bradc]

Szayel's candy balls are better than Urahara's mint balls.
Tastier than Aizen's since they are strawberry flavoured.
But Aizen is such a honey necter... Bite me...

Szayel Aporro owns Candy Machines in Las Noches XDDD

[chryseis]

i enjoyed the second half of this episode immensely. if i were grimmjow, i would have run away screaming like a little girl if i saw ulquiorra's face when he found out orihime was gone. >.> i also enjoyed grimmjow's voice acting in this episode a lot. the menace in ""ill teach him what happens when you try to steal someone else's prey" was so great!

[vaizado]

Why people like bondage I will never understand.

[Ulquiorra]

Does Pessche like...not have a penis? :p

cause he landed right in that spot....

his penis turns into something else

if you read the manga you know what im talkin about ;)

[bradc]

his penis turns into something else

I hope they animated that part... XDDDD

[phantomfork]

Why people like bondage I will never understand.

The real question is why does Kubo like it enough to put Orihime in chains! :nuts

It's not like she was gonna go kick Grimmjow in the nuts and make a run for it.

[aquavit]

The real question is why does Kubo like it enough to put Orihime in chains! :nuts

It's not like she was gonna go kick Grimmjow in the nuts and make a run for it.

LOL, I totally agree. The scene where Grimmjow unveils Orihime, Orihime falls forward and the cloth covering her mouth magically tore itself asunder was pretty dramatic.

And chibi Nel is just simply cute as usual. I felt bad for her crying for Ichigo.

[smach]

TBH that crying was pretty annoying. i felt like pulling a zaraki and kicking her through the building like "STFU DAMMIT!"

[Riekie]

Why people like bondage I will never understand.

Because it's Grimmjow's who's taking part in it:wtf:yay:love

@Flower: nah, it's not that part of the sword-scratching..still, it's coming close:yell:love

Btw...Ulquiorra was total smex too! he looked sooo cool when he went to Loli and Menoli and then appeared behind Grimmjow...awesome!!

[Hiraga]

It was a really good episode IMO
Grimmjow was totally smex, not mentioning Ulquiorra :inlove
The animators cut out cannibal Szayel, but the rest was OK
I'm looking forward to next week's episode! :love

[kitty868theonly]

haha, I just remembered, why did they make grimmjow throw up his hands like that? :rotflmao


I asked the same thing once I saw it :rotflmao Ah~! Well, this episode wasn't a let down as much---- censoring was tolerated. And the thing around Orihime's mouth disappeared too fast--- Grimm was supposed to be shown ripping it off :( not all super fast... All well... At least he looked good taking the cloth off AND it was in 'slow motion' :inlove I couldn't help but laugh just a little and scream on the inside :p Next week, seems like a good one. Well, it seems that there will be two fights going on, on both sides of the 'story' ;)

[dramaelfie]

Still great when subbed. Although, did anyone else notice Grimmjow's shoes grow heels halfway through the scene? lol

[rei_ai]

Ulquiorra and Grimmjaw are the hottest espadas. Glad that their seiyuus fit them.

Grimmy's power release will come soon. I hope they won't hang it for the filler.

[Shdo]

i cant belive they cut the eating part...i was so pissed at that moment.

[rvngu]

there's too much censoring. last weak during the grimmjow/arrancar girl scene and now the eating part. the point is to show how ruthless these espada but in the anime, they don't seem as badass as in the manga. oh well. the grimmjow/ulqui scene was well done.

[Soranushi]

Well atleast they still showed him eat something they could have just made him absorb it instead I think it was changed properly but it still would have been better if it was shown like the manga. I think what got me mad after watching Szayel's eatting scene that had a very good edit compared to last weeks. Was that they should of did something similar last week like Grimmjow should have broken Loli's leg instead of just kicking her in the face even thought it was somewhat funny.

[rvngu]

i guess so and the anime is more like PG-13 right ? it's not elfen lied lol

[Euregatto]

TV-14 most likely

[kasukemaru]

well, the episode is not so bad...the animation was good (specially in the grimmjow and Ulquiorra part)..Nell´s cry was really hm..eh..annoing. At least, they didn´t censured the episode to much, like they did in the episode 163. Grimm and Nell´s part was funny. Ulquiorra was amazing, he was like: WTF are doing, Grimmjow??? I hope the next episode will be amazing to, because it will have Grimm/Ulqui fight.
