Bleach ep. 169

[ BLEACH #169]

Haha. This was a pretty funny episode. The new character, Luri, is right up my alley. Sure she has that bratty streak going but it’s not that bad and it’s actually preferable to certain level. I found it hilarious how she and Ichigo practically hit it off on their very first meeting. Those two are going to have an interesting relationship during this arc if the OP sequence is any indication. I don’t care much for Luri’s two bodyguards, especially Ken. He’s even worse than Byakuya when it comes to the whole status nonsense. I don’t see myself coming to like either of them in the near future. As far as the story of this original arc goes, nothing much has been revealed outside of the OP sequence. It would seem that Luri is going to get kidnapped and of course Ichigo is going to have to save her by returning to Soul Society. Even though things are anything but clear at the moment I’m looking forward to the direction this original story goes and hope that all the characters are used efficiently throughout.

Bleach filler ftw?
Well, man, I expected them to at least explain why Ichigo, Rukia, Orihime and everyone are back to town again. Is it like an alternative universe story?
But a funny episode nonetheless. Not really in love with Ruru or Luru or whatever her name is. But it was nice to see bleach in high-school mode again. Soul Society and high-school - that’s what made Bleach awesome for me, back in the days:)
I guess you can sorta see it as an AU. Honestly, I don’t think they’ll explain the whole shift back to town/SS. Though if they do it’ll be hilarious I bet.
did Orihime drop like 5 cup sizes in that bottom left picture, or is it just me? O_o
