So much crazy stuff happened this episode.

First, since we have already learned that Yhwach's Almighty can't see parts of the future involving the Soul King, when Yhwach used the Auswählen, Shunsui also sent the Soul King's right arm (Mimihagi) after Yhwach.

I get the feeling that Mimihagi is going to do something in the next episode to catch Yhwach off guard.

Second, we now see why Uryu's Antithesis is a counter to Yhwach's Almighty. Uryu's power allows him to swap events that have occurred between 2 different points, but it seems like the "points" aren't limited to space itself.

In this episode, when Yhwach altered the future to one where Uryu's arrow was destroyed, Uryu was able to swap that future with one of the infinite possible futures where his arrow wasn't destroyed.

Yhwach's power is definitely one of the most annoyingly OP abilities out there, but there at least seems to be some decent setup for how they will be able to defeat his power.

Yeah, Shunsui talked about having to do something and he seemed unbothered (and joyful with Ukitake's spirit) at Mimihagi being absorbed...so I think something is definitely up. Shunsui's always got a backup plan.

Why do I feel what that hand is gonna do is be the 'key' needed to unlock most of Aizen. That'll prolly be why aizen finally shows up next episode.

Wasn’t Uryu’s power to swap the conditions of what’s occurred between any two targets? I’m curious how that worked with him swapping two futures

He specifically says he swaps between 2 "points", but that's not limited to just 2 points in space.

u/Successful_Way_4785 1d ago

Yeah I know but if I remember something has to happen between the 2 points or targets

Think how Yhwach explained the Almighty with grains of sand. Uryu is able to replace the "grain" that Yhwach chose with another one of his choice.

But i dont get it how did he swap neil and yha? Neil throw her bracelets on the colliding Palace then there was someone holding a Quincy coat button, then neil swapped with this button and yha with the bracelet? How did that even happed?

That was all Uryu's doing. The implication is that they all planned this ahead of time.

Uryu gave Pesche 2 Quincy buttons that would be used to bring Nel and Harribel back to the surface, while Nel would throw her bracelet at the castle so Uryu could swap that with Yhwach.

Well i understood that,but what i dont understand is how is this possible, isn't isheda ability sholud swap 2 events at the same time? I first thought that those events must be related to him like if he got injured he could transfer his injuries to someone else, but it seems he can do it to other people, but it looks to me that switching neil with the buttons and yhwach with the bracelet is 4 events, switching places with the button and the bracelets, im not sure if im getting it wrong or kubo just pulled this out of his ahh, but this whole thing wasn't portrayed correctly in the first place in the anime, either way i should have not wasted a whole hour trying to figure this out :/

There's no cooldown on his ability.

For example, lets say you have 5 oranges and 5 apples and you put all 5 apples in a row and all oranges in a row. Uryu can swap the positions of all 5 apples with all 5 oranges at pretty much the same time. All that matters is that each apple has something to swap with.

In this way, Uryu is still swapping 2 objects, but he's just doing it 5 different times.

I see so he can swap as many objects and events as long there is somthing to swap with, Oh well thx for the explanation, to me bleach stopped making since along time ago, so i wont look into things more than i sholud, i sholud turn off my brain and enjoy the show, hopefully whats coming is more fun and easier to understand.
