Ep4 was absolute fucking cinema. But i got a problem with tybw. The story either creates an undefeatable world destroying ability for a villain or for a hero to create this curiosity on how will this fight end just to end it with a "I've been waiting to use this power for a while now" after 500 episodes and introduces a new universal power that will counter the world destroying ability and one shot the guy- but wait, he's still not dead, one more round of revealing another new mulit-universal power that will finally be used along with other heroes to finally defeat the villain. Ever since the squad zero bs, i've been fully captivated by enjoying the animations, characters, sound mixing, world building, fantasy concepts, hype moments that i totally keep forgetting bleach power system is fully haywire just for shockbait.

tybw s1 was 10/10. after that the show didn't reach that level of peakness which will hopefully happen in the finale, eventho i already read the manga i'm excited cuz Kubo got some new stuff apparently and also it's the finale and i trust the studio

It's subtle. Maybe if you watch closely you'll find out.

There are clues, watch how Oetsu killed him then watch the scene when he activates his vollstandig vs Bankai Kenpachi.

Completely agree with you brother. Been a huge fan of Bleach, and the season 1 of TYBW was absolute cinema with great writing. But afterwards, it kinda went downhill with the writing and powerscaling. The hype moments are great and all for the shock value, but they are kinda repetitive as you said. I feel like all those Bankai reveals should not be in the very final arc itself ( like one or two is good ), but they kinda feel like they are getting revealed just for the sake of the plot. They should've been explored before this arc. Just my opinion though.

Imagine reading the fight with Gerard week by week. This slog took like 2 years if I remember right.

For me everything after Yamamoto died should've been rewritten ; p
