man... i dunno how you lot can all sit around pickin holes in bleach and slaggin it off. you seem to have missed the point that this episode was like the coolest thing ever. maybe its a bit blah if youve read the manga, but for me, who hasn't... this episode totally smacked it and i can't bloody wait for more episodes exactly like it. there was nothing wrong with it at all and I love it. if you're gonna let a different ending theme or a badly-drawn doll spoil it for you then i feel sorry for you.
