Hey, there's nothing sad about that. They might have found it troublesome to make the whole episode some gala with everybody attending in suits and dresses like that. Thus, the only way to give us joyous images like that (kind of fanservice) was to have them as nonsensical background for the credits.
There's only so much you can tell in 30 mins, as an independent story especially with lots of characters, which I believe was probably a studio requirement for this kind of Jump Fest extra. Considering that, considering this was equivalent to fillers, I say this was a masterpiece.
What would be interesting is that maybe later in the future episodes, we'll all see Kenpachi use Bankai and it'll flash back to this episode in that he picked up the sword in the end since it does look like his very own sword. Perhaps his swords name is BAISHIN!!! ZOMGWTFBBQSAUCE!
It was very refreshing indeed. I would have liked it more if I could understand what was happening. Seriously some storyline elements got a little confusing for me there, I know it sort of makes some sence but it got too the point of "Let's show Ichigo kick some ass"
Why did they need like 4 Captains there if Ichigo handed that guy his ass... with Bankai (huh?) which to me looked like his battle with Byakuya (They had little shards of blades TOO!) I could go on with things that didn't make much sence but I enjoyed it so I'd be hitting myself over it
I'll just say this, It was Fan Service, and I as a Fan loved it
image fail!
pretty nice ova, i somehow liked the grand fisher fight ova better though, all those captains+ yoruichi ( you know she kicks ass ) for someone that was beaten easily by ichigo's bankai was kinda lame, i was hoping for more ukitake and kyouraku action, i also couldnt understand that rukia was telling the ppl the run or something, while she was in shinigami form.....i mean isnt she supposed to be a "ghost" then lmao.
anyway i think the best part was when byakuya made his short appearance at the credits
this ova fuckin sucked. all the characters were dumbed down just like in every one of these ova's.
If I remember correctly, they said sealing the guy earlier had costed the lives of a couple of captains. Not to mention all those vice captains and such before the dude escaped SS. So, it would make sense to send more people of captain level to handle him this time. Why it took only Ichigo to defeat him this time is another question of course. Maybe he had just gotten rusty while rotting sealed in the mountain for such a long time...Originally Posted by Deadfire
But one thing is certain: It won't do anything good to Toushirou's selfesteem that he couldn't even scratch the enemy while a halfdead Ichigo still defeated him...
I'd say he let himself get killed so he can be free from his Zanpakutou. Just my 2 cents
I have to agree with LaZyKiD, I don't think the guy wanted to be all half Zanpakutou, so he wanted to be killed for freedoms sake, why he needed Ichigo probobly coes down to plot, but then again, why does Ichigo ever win a fight?
Ahahahah, I was thinking the same thing. Toushirou's bankai is just all show and no substance.
Bad guys: 2
Toushirou's Bankai: 0
All in all, an entertaining 'filler'. Like others have stated, it is better than what we are currently watching; however, it still is lacking the 'feel' of Bleach (kinda heartless). Still, worthy effort and worth the time. Yes, the credits was puuuuuuure fanservice!
Currently watching: One Piece, Black Lagoon, Bleach, Death Note, Suzumiya Haruhi,
The 12 Kingdoms, and Soukou no Strain (kinda)

exactly what is his bankai? all i see is him with iced outwings. and his attack is rather weak for a bankai. meh its probably because hes not usually in a cold place or something whih might give his sword a boost or something. well atleast after this ova i know that ichigo can preform bankai in the real world unlike in the current anime where he needs alot more strength to do it.
