ICHIGO IS IN HIS EMO ERA!!! 😎 | Bleach Episode 308 and 309 Reaction

please do NOT skip the Fullbring Arc. it’s not filler.

People who think Fullbring is skippable aren't even Bleach fans lol, there're literal repercussions of that arc to the next that are SHOWN.

Fun Fact : GOJO sealed by GETO in JJK is inspired from Urahaha sealing Aizen even the camera angle are perfect

15:05 Payback for stopping Ichigo's theme music during the Soul Society Arc.

Guys. There was filler, inbetween the fall of Aizen and the beginning of Fullbring. The "Gotei 13 Invasion Arc." IIC, its Episode 311-342. Episode 343 is the first of the Fullbring Arc. Which, absolutely CANNOT be skipped. Full bring arc (343-366) answers so many unanswered questions.

Idk why people keep saying to skip the Fullbring arc when its a canon arc and you literally cant watch the TYBW without it. So many weirdos tell reaction channels to skip the arc and when the channels obviously watch the arc, they question why people even considered for them to skip it since you HAVE to watch it. Its so dumb. They just say to skip it because some people in the fanbase don’t like it but it’s literally canon.

I do not care what anyone says, Ichigo is THE coldest anime protagonist of all time

28:15 Aizen's rage is one of my favorite anime moments. The VA nailed the revulsion and hatred that Aizen has. "From the beginning, no god stood in the heavens, but now, I will fill that vacancy." Aizen never accepted subjugation under the Soul King, to that *thing*

She got there. Now I wonder how she'll react with Fullbring arc.

Fullbring is not filler and is important to watch

NO IT ISN'T FILLER PLEASE ITS AN IMPORTANT ARC TO CONTINUE Don't SKIP IT AT ALL ITS CALLED THE LOST AGENT ARC.

To explain better, every relevant character of bleach has its own poem, Kubo loves associating a character to a short poem. The poem about snake and love is Rangiku’s poem.

Don't forget Tousen, he would have defended Aizen from Gin. That may have been Gin's first opportunity to betray Aizen with Tousen gone, because Tousen was loyal to Aizen (or at least loyal to his plansi).

The Final Getsuga Tenshou goes hard. One of the most epic moments in the series.

Man Ichigo with the black hair looks so cool

The thousand year war has been referenced before indirectly, even at the start of the series. It's the logical conflict of the series that was set up from the beginning, but you'll see what it's about when you reach it. Until then there's the Lost Agent Arc, which is basically an important transition / set up arc.

the next arc is a whole different vibe from everything we seen thus far. and then i can’t wait til you get to the thousand year blood war

24:40! correct!! Aizen is just assuming, b/c he can't understand it. Just a clarification on spiritual pressure. If you cannot feel it when they DO have it. Means yours is too low compared to theirs. As someone has said before, the weaker spiritual pressure gets pushed out. Aizen isn't even close to Ichigo's lvl. Oh man the goosebumps.

[Tidbits & Clarifications] - If it wasn't clear by the poem at the start of Ep 308. Gin did all of this because Aizen took a piece of Rangikus soul, and from that moment Gin vowed to kill him. For that cause, he was willing to do whatever evil deed, so part of him doubts whether Rangiku could ever love him after what he's done. That's what the poem was about at the start of the episode. "If you became a snake tomorrow And began devouring people, If you roared your love for me With that mouth you use to devour people Could I still say that I love you As I do today?" - Tensa Zangetsu is the embodiment of Ichigo therefore he knows Ichigo more than anyone, the reason that he's sad about Ichigo learning this ability is that he knows how important it is for Ichigo to have the power to protect his loved ones. (This is something that's addressed in the upcoming arc so DO NOT SKIP) [Lotta Reading for those interested, Mini Book] These episodes cover content found in Volume 48 of Bleach titled "God is Dead" which is very important here and later within the story, but today I'm only talking about what we do know. That title derives from the famous philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche who began his quote with : “God is dead. God remains dead. And we have killed him.” the quote ended with : “Must we ourselves not become gods simply to appear worthy of it” Aizen similarly once said: “Since The Beginning, no one has ever stood in the heavens, neither you, nor I, not even God himself, but that emptiness in the throne of heaven will be filled from this day forth” This tells us that Aizen is an Übermensch. what is that? The Übermensch is a being who reaches their best self by not succumbing to religion or morality, a being who can affirm their own life, not seek purpose in what they have been told to do. The Übermensch can determine for themselves, their own value. Therein being a God. which is why here Aizen says: “The Victor must always speak not of the world as it is, but of how it should be” If something greater does not deem it so, then for what purpose do we exist? In this philosophy where “God is Dead” it must then be understood that all things that existed through that God are destined for the same fate, therein sets the reality that there is no meaning to life. This leads us to another Aizen quote “All living things believe in someone superior to them, and cannot live unless they blindly follow them. Then, the objects of their faith try to escape this crushing pressure by seeking another being that is more superior to them to believe in. And they, in turn, seek a stronger being still. That is how all kings are born. That is how... all gods are born.” people still need something to believe in, because that is where purpose is derived, but if the God they seek and believe in is vacant then they are living a life with false purpose and worse they won't be able to escape it. The last bit I’ll cover (cause this has already stretched far enough) is the additional aspect of Nietzsche’s Übermensch philosophy which talks about “The Last Man” In short, The Last Man is a concept in which we as a people from lacking meaning choose to do what’s comforting and easy instead of taking charge of our own purpose. In other words, The Last Man is a person who chooses to keep things the way they are because it’s safe and comfortable We see this with Urahara, who knows the truth and can enact change, but he chooses the status quo, he chooses complacency. This is why Aizen is upset with him, because with a mind as great as theirs, why would you choose to uphold a falsehood? Why choose to not be the best version of you? (There is so much more but I can’t speak on it now, plus this is already far to much for a youtube comment)

Inoue ulquiorra wasnt a tease... They were never a thing
