by

Summary

  • Yoruichi battles Nakk Le Vaar to protect Ichigo, setting up a flashy, intense showdown with lightning-based attacks.
  • Uryu flips the script on his betrayal, revealing he never truly aligned with Wandenreich, shocking Haschwalth and Yhwach.
  • Gerard Valkyrie gigantifies against a team of powerful Shinigami, showcasing overwhelming godlike powers in the showdown.

As someone who has spent countless hours immersed in the world of anime and manga, I must say that the latest episode of “Bleach” left me utterly astounded. The action was fast-paced, the animation was breathtakingly beautiful, and the storyline was as captivating as ever.

What particularly struck me was the fight between Yoruichi and Askin Nakk Le Vaar. Yoruichi, with her mastery over Shunko, displayed a level of skill that I’ve seldom seen in any character before. Her lightning-based attacks were not only powerful but also visually stunning, thanks to the clever use of impact frames.

However, what truly impressed me was Askin Nakk Le Vaar. Despite being outmatched in terms of raw power, he proved to be a formidable opponent due to his unique abilities and adaptability. The way he regenerated from each attack was reminiscent of some of the toughest opponents I’ve encountered in my years of watching anime.

The fight between Yoruichi and Askin Nakk Le Vaar was a testament to the depth and complexity of characters in “Bleach”. It showcased their individual strengths, weaknesses, and growth throughout the series. The cliffhanger ending left me eagerly anticipating the next episode, titled “My Last Words.”

Oh, and let me add this: I’ve seen a lot of fights in my time, but I’ve never seen anyone dodge a reverse roundhouse kick like that! It’s a good thing Yoruichi didn’t break her hip or something. She’d have to explain that to Captain Hitsugaya… and I don’t envy her that conversation!

In the initial segment of the one-hour concluding episode titled “BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 – The Conflict“, Yoruichi engages in combat with Nakk Le Vaar to protect Ichigo and their companions from an unfavorable situation. Simultaneously, Uryu discloses that he had never been fully allied with the Wandenreich. However, Haschwalth, who now possesses Yhwach’s The Almighty as the Quincy King rests, was already aware of this fact.

In the initial part of the climax, a series of intense confrontations are being orchestrated. However, it’s important to note that the outcomes of these battles will be revealed later, specifically during the final episodes, which have already been scheduled.

Uryū Ishida, The Traitor

Jugram Haschwalth Confirms The Truth He Always Knew

In the room strolls Jugram Haschwalth, exuding an air of superiority, observing Uryū appearing troubled. Uryū mirrors this concern, but Haschwalth, having recently slain his childhood friend, boasts about his abilities to foresee events due to Yhwach’s powers while Yhwach is asleep. This implies that he can see the future. Surprisingly, Uryū implicates himself by questioning if Haschwalth has seen that he’s a traitor. With three irises in each eye, Haschwalth is strikingly beautiful yet eerie, and the color shifts from deep red to cool blue, suggesting a transition between his true self and Yhwach’s persona. Confidently, Haschwalth queries Uryū as to why he’d make such a statement when all he’s done is mention having access to Yhwach’s foresight. It’s been clear since the beginning of Part 2 – The Separation that Uryū has betrayed his bonds with Ichigo and various Soul Society-related entities, joining forces with the Wandenreich instead.

In “The Visible Answer”, it is revealed that Uryu does not truly side with Yhwach, contrary to initial assumptions. This information is known to Haschwalth due to his connection to The Almighty, which means Yhwach would also have been aware. Interestingly, the injuries Uryu inflicted on Renji appear to heal too quickly for lasting damage, even though they targeted crucial areas like Saketsu and Hakusui that are essential for maintaining spiritual powers. This is surprising given the severity of these wounds. In Ichigo’s case, despite his impressive regenerative abilities thanks to Orihime, Uryu managed to avoid striking the critical area during their intense battle in Part 3.

Ist das der Zerstörer?!

Gerard Valkyrie Gigantifies, Refuses to Stop Elaborating

Facing off against the array of powerful opponents that Gerard was about to encounter simultaneously, most characters within the BLEACH universe would find themselves in a precarious situation. Up against Kisuke Urahara, a revitalized 6th Squad Captain Byakuya Kuchiki; his Lieutenant Renji Abarai, newly healed by Hachigen; Spec Ops Division Captain Soi-Fon; 5th Squad Captain Shinji Hirako; his Lieutenant Momo Hinamori and 13th Squad Lieutenant Rukia Kuchiki, who is now capable of unleashing an incredibly powerful Bankai, many characters would undoubtedly have to concede defeat. However, instead of being intimidated, Gerard Valyrie appeared to grow more confident, as Askin Nakk Le Vaar narrates that he is said to be not just any Quincy, but the very Heart of the Soul King himself.

‘You don’t stand a chance beating us by yourself.’

If I manage to defeat you all, it would be quite astonishing, almost like a fluke! Now, when does something extraordinary or unexpected happen? Typically, such events go unnoticed as ordinary occurrences. People might say, “What luck!” or “Strange things do happen,” rather than recognizing them as miracles.

A miracle is only a miracle if it occurs in a moment of crisis.

Initially, it appears that the opponent stands no chance against Byakuya’s Senbonzakura attack, causing Momo to question if such a brutal end was necessary. Shinji explains that the opponent seemed to possess a hidden power that could have wreaked havoc on them had he activated it, warranting their cautious approach. As the situation unfolds, the Quincy dramatically grows in size, a power strong enough to momentarily destabilize the three realms, much like Senjumaru Shutara’s Bankai. Ukitake and Yhwach react to Gerard Valkyrie’s apparent death. This hidden power allows Gerard to amplify his wounds into an enormous size, making him taller than most buildings with the damage inflicted by the Shinigami team being sufficient for this transformation. The scene becomes somewhat similar to Attack on Titan as Gerard hurls chunks of buildings at his enemies, much like the Beast Titan. Despite their united efforts, Gerard’s immense size proves too overpowering for them, and he effortlessly fends off their attacks.

Finally A Fight For Yoruichi

Yoruichi vs Nakk Le Vaar Will Be First Up Next Cours

In the final episodes of Part 3, Nakk Le Vaar functioned as a storyteller, summarizing for a weakened Ichigo the lore of the Sternritters, including Pernida Parnkgjas and Gerard Valkyrie, who are believed to be living fragments of the Soul King. Nakk Le Vaar is particularly fearsome among the Sternritters due to his unique ability to adjust the potency of substances he consumes, a power that left Ichigo, Orihime, and Chad incapacitated. Yoruichi appears beside Nakk Le Vaar, questioning why he doesn’t simply choke his opponents, but Nakk Le Vaar explains that such brutal methods align with the nature of himself and individuals like Bambietta Basterbine. The battle commences swiftly as Yoruichi effortlessly dodges a powerful reverse roundhouse kick from Nakk Le Vaar, gracefully jumping to the opposite side of the battlefield. The animation is impressive, as Yoruichi promptly escalates the confrontation by activating her Shunko ability, which surrounds her with electric arcs and gives the appearance of wings emerging from her back, a visual effect also utilized in Nakk Le Vaar’s response, firing three arrows simultaneously; one of which Yoruichi catches and returns to him.

The battle is remarkably spectacular, with Yoruichi’s lightning-infused attacks inflicting severe injuries and offering a stunning display of frame-by-frame impact scenes. Regrettably, the Quincy proves to be stronger than he appears, recovering fully following each attack. Briefly, we get to witness Yushiro, Yoruichi’s younger brother, in combat, demonstrating remarkable skill with Shunko at a young age and initially overpowering Nakk Le Vaar. However, this wasn’t enough to faze the opponent, who quickly turned the tide against both siblings due to his resistance to their Reiatsu. The first part of the hour-long special ends, teasing the central conflict between Haschwalth and Uryū, which will unfold in the next episode titled “My Last Words”. As the battle wears on, Yoruichi struggles to defend her brother while dishing out powerful blows. We’ll have to wait for the final episodes to see how this fight unfolds.
