Hi Steph, I started watching your Bleach reactions when you posted your reaction to the openings and I just immediately fell in love with it. Watching you make up theories about the story progression, and getting actually close in your guesses, only to get completely thrown off by a filler opening was very fun! So I’ve started watching your episode reactions too when they’ve started coming out and it is a wonderful way to re-live the first time watching what is my first and favorite anime. I was watching only your edits on YouTube till now, and only joined your patreon two days ago. So I will be rewatching your full episode reactions and don’t know if somebody mentioned this to you already, but there is a lot of filler content in the original anime run, some 45% of it. So I wanted to let you know of a way to avoid all of that that you might be interested in. Concentrated Bleach ● Linktree: https://linktr.ee/gabby5202 ● Their X profile: https://x.com/BleachPaced?lang=en Here is a link to a video explaining the project but it does show examples of the edits and spoils some true identities reveals that you’ve yet to see so watch at your own peril! (https://youtu.be/kb8Q6wkqYNM?list=TLPQMjUxMDIwMjZLA5PL8kiDJA) I’ve also made this list of pros and cons for you. Pros & Cons of watching fan edits: Pros: ● No Filler episodes/arcs ● Little to zero filler content mixed into the canon story (P.S. All those endings with characters in alternative clothes, like Stay Beautiful, are basically just reimaginings of them in what if/alternative universe scenarios. They have zero story significance and just show Tite Kubo’s impeccable fashion sense. Honestly, why the man doesn’t have his own fashion brand yet is a mystery to me. XD P.P.S. The flying superman figure in that ending was Don Kanonji btw. XD You can recognize him by the silhouette and color scheme.) ○ And thus experience closer to the original manga one ● Better Pacing (Honestly the Studio Pierrot was atrocious with padding the run time. There is literally a scene of a character just eating bowls of rice for like 2 minutes!) ● Significant character moments don’t lose on their impact because of a repetition of or mirroring of events by filler arcs. ● No interference with of characterization of characters like Orihime ● No IchiRuki shipping (Another thing Pierrot was horrible with, they’ve literally edited scenes [changed lightning and/or angles] and/or added new ones between Rukia and Ichigo to force in the ship, while editing out ones that support the original love interest for Ichigo! If you’ve not yet fallen into the trap of this ship, count yourself lucky and stay away from it please! XD) ● Tite Kubo’s original manga poems from manga chapters ● Original Manga Title Card art ● No confusion over filler characters appearing out of nowhere in the cannon story. (This one’s only in comparison to watching by the no filler guide) ● I had one more Pro but I forgot so I guess this is all you get… XP I know it's soooo little XD Cons: ● You will miss out on the shared experience of the original anime run’s imperfection that all of the other fans have (This is something I figured out I should point out for you to consider since you are watching not just as a fan but a react content creator. But maybe you could watch the fan edits first and then watch the filler arcs separately?) ● No additional dolls besides Kon (I know you liked them from the opening/endings. And admittedly, I like the bird and turtle doll design too 🥰) ● You miss out on anime original Title Card art (On this I feel it’s fifty fifty so I included it as both Pro and Con. Both the anime and manga originals are good.) ● There are some characters with cool powers in the fillers and two or three cool fights as well ● The project is not yet finished. But you will avoid at least the first filler arc, so… Hollowed Bleach (Another such fan project that is further along, that Concentrated Bleach advertises on their X page) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-ipC6DpZw4GlmMnUw4fOsIWXCbK0s0St2vbsMPr6WfI/edit?gid=0#gid=0 If you don’t want to watch the fan edits but still want to avoid the filler contents here is a Basic episode guide to avoid Fillers. https://www.animefillerlist.com/shows/bleach The Con of this is that since Pierrot integrated the first and last filler arc into the canon content you will just have new characters, like the dolls, popping into the story seemingly out of nowhere. -----------!!!!!-----------Spoilers Ahead-----------!!!!!----------- Though only from an anime-first watcher’s perspective. For manga readers this is obvious stuff from the get go. So let other commenters tell you if you should read ahead or not I guess? • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • As I said this only counts as a spoiler if you are watching anime before reading manga, which you are, or you haven’t yet caught on to the feelings Orihime has for Ichigo. I personally was completely blindsided by Studio Pierrot’s edits, so when a scene in 5th or 6th season came where her feelings for him were shown in a pretty undeniable way (folks here will know what I’m talking about), my prepubescent ass with no understanding of the few hints they’ve left in was a little bit surprised to be honest. Orihime has clear feelings, crush at minimum, for Ichigo from her very introduction in manga where she says to Tatsuki asking what she sees in him (or something along those lines) that she finds his scary looking face interesting. This is her introduction in manga, the whole Ichigo scaring her after he bumped into her is a complete anime invention to get you off the track on her being the love interest and there are few other such examples. Like the scene of all the girls from their class having lunch and discussing Rukia’s relationship with Ichigo. In manga Orihime goes into saying that if Rukia is also interested in him the two of them could team up to get him. Still a little bit silly but certainly showing much more of Orihime’s feelings for Ichigo. In anime, if you remember, they’ve played it as a comedy bit of Orihime being a silly airhead with plans of making Ichigo a harem or whatever that was. From Ichigo’s side it’s much more subtle as he is not a romance oriented person or character, but when you look at it he clearly holds Orihime in a special place apart from the others. One particular way this manifests, that I like, is how he addresses her. As you may know in Japanese culture you don’t use persons first name unless you are very close to them, and even then you are still supposed to use honorifics unless they are your immediate relative (Sibling, child or Spouse). It is a sign of very intimate closeness or disrespect. Ichigo never does this with people that are close to him! (Or are his enemies, though that is a different matter.) He calls everyone with their first name and no honorifics, Rukia, Chad, Tatsuki, Keigo, Renji. In most cases it showcases Ichigo’s more rebellious/punk nature towards authority, whenever it is in a more casual/friendly way (he even literally calls the leader of all the Shinigami with suffix -jii, basically calling him an old man or gramps XD) but in others his closeness with people he truly cares for and that he sees them as equals. Even with the people he shows respect to, he uses a more casual -san rather than addressing them with their station like captain or vice-captain, and he absolutely never uses -sama or -dono. The only exception to this, from the people closest to him are: Ishida for whom he harbors some level of respect as his rival or something, so I guess he puts him above/apart from his other peers in his mind. AND Orihime, who he does call Inoue-san (I believe he later drops the honorific but still sticks to the surname) right from the beginning and is the only girl character he does that for! She is clearly stuck in his head from the time she brought her brother to their clinic (whom btw she carried on her shoulders in the manga, as a middle schooler). Even if he has no romantic feelings for her at that point, she clearly holds a special place in his mind.

Not even 10am in Brazil and i'm already watching PEAK!!!!

misery

you know, as i grow up i like renji and understand him as a character

Seraphina

The real scary part: If Renji was only at 20% power when he fought Ichigo before, then so was Byakuya.

Kosaki

Ichigo is #1 trash talker (but at least he can deliver what he said lol)

Javier Lasso

42:00 Bro, I’ve figured out why there are so many earthquakes in Japan, someone needs to put a stop to the training sessions in Urahara’s basement.

Frenc

I really love how you feel this anime, not just watching it!!

Barry

These eps hit so much harder after the final episode.

mateo potato

that violin was hitting making the emotions really hit XD

Brie&Apples

There is a sick part of me that wants to see the little cupcake we know as Orihime go on a relentless killing spree.

Eri

These episodes are some of my fav 😭 I think from the get-go Rukia is shown to be a very charming character, but these extended flashbacks perfectly showcase how Renji's feelings for Rukia developed. As you watch it play out, Renji's feelings of resentment and insecurity start to make a sad amount of sense. He wanted Rukia to have a good life, so he tried to detach himself from her and instead pursue catching up to Byakuya's strength, but that lead to him feeling disillusioned and like he couldn't even admit that he didn't want Rukia to be executed. It's easy for him to redirect his ire towards Ichigo because, in Renji's eyes, Ichigo is at fault and is still saying/doing whatever he wants, propriety be damned.

Otaku Steph

Oh, and one thing I though to clarify now that I am acctualy watching this video. You seem to have misunderstood that all the people in Soul Society are deceased humans from mortal world but that is not the case. People can still procreate in there and many are born there with clans like Shiba and Kuchiki having milenia old blodlines (which btw contributes to their naturaly high spirit energy since souls born to SS have stronger ones than those that were came from mortal world.). Basicaly all of the named characters from SS are native to there. I think Yuichi, the parakeet kid, and his "adoptive brother" we met in that episode are the only named characters we ever meet that are deceased people. And since we are on those two I feel like I should also mention that Yuichi saying they don't age is also bit of unreliable narrator/ freshly arrived soul perspective. He thinks they don't age because souls age at much slower pace (Rukia is some 300 years old if I remember right) and since he arrived just recently her hasn't yet grasped this completely. There is also a possibility that souls with lower to no spitritual energy don't age simmilar to how they don't feel hunger, but this is just a guess and the author never states anywhere how this works if I remember right. He is one of those types that doesn't like to tell everithing about his worldbuilding. Sort of like proffesor Tolkien X)

2026-10-31 19:00 Also, reason why Rukia was sad as she thanked Renji was cause her joining high status noble family like Kuchiki would mean they can't meet anymore because they would now be from different social classes. Renji knew this too at the time but put up an act of support for Rukia so the woman he loves could have better life. And that's why he wanted to surpass Byakuya so much, because he now always felt inferrior to her "a dog barking at a star". So he though if he surpassed the head of Kuchiki, he would close up the chasm this created between him and Rukia and be with her again. Also I belive Rukia had feelings for him at this point already too, hence why she was so supportive of him in the class. Which is why she was hasitant to accept the adoption offer. She probaly felt like Renji just rejected her, sort of friendzoned her, when he supported the addoption. From her pov it was like him telling her "I wish you the best in your new better life where we can't be together! Buddy!". She felt hurt and dissapinted that he was pushing her away instead of fighting for her to stay. This in turn made her feel as if she wasn't woman worth fighting for and only kept deepening the chasm for the next 40 years where she actively avoided growing close to him again out of mutual pain. Also, he doesn't really blames himself for letting all of this happen in a sense of "if I haven't done this one thing in a past all of these other things wouldn't happen too", but more in a sense "I keep on letting go of her again and again, always too afraid to chase after her, every time loosing her more and more". "A dog barking ... but too afraid to jump." He blames himself for being to cowardly to confess, basicaly, and how this fear just kept deepening the chasm between them. It's not so much that he now trust Ichigo, rather he quite hates him right now because he reminds him of his cowardice by wanting to save Rukia no mater how impossible it, not just because of a difference in strenght but because it also means to confront the entire social system and hierarchy. Something he himself was affraid to to. It's rather that his loss here forced him to finaly confront this cowardice he was running/denying all this time. So he begs, in sheer desperation. His enemy, a man who, unlike him, is willing to go against all odds, to do what he was too much of a coward to do but desperately wanted to on the inside, and save the woman he loves. It is so tragicaly beautiful love story. So not so much a "I trust you cause I recognize you Ichigo" yet. But "I entrust you the fate of the woman I love Ichigo. Please, do what I was unable to." P.S. I know coward might be bit of a strong word but I couldn't hink of a better one here.

Before it was more of a boyish insecurity "this girl is so great what if she doesn't like me that way", and now it was lirally a massive social divide where she was now a princess (from Rukongai) of Kuchiki family and he was still a Rukon dog.

2026-11-07 07:00 I know. I rant a lot when I get going. Sorry. I'll try to hold back next time X)
2026-10-31 00:35 I know. I rant a lot when I get going. Sorry. But since (as I said already) Tite Kubo is the kind of author that wants you to figure stuff on your own, which I personaly love since there's constantly something new to uncover, there is a potentional problem when persons theory goes wrong because there is noone to correct them other than other fans. I'll try to hold back next time X) Unless of course you are fine with it X)
