Bleach - Episode 211
Betrayal!
Aizen’s Secret Maneuvers
Interesting how Kyouraku always seems to be goofing off but is actually very observing and smart. It was already suspecting Aizen of something but, Aizen’s illusions are almost impossible to break through.
Meanwhile, in the battle field, they try to catch Kensei again, in a more powerful binding this time. Shinji’s "badass" commentary was really funny.
Anyway, no matter if they succeed, they are all in the process of turning hollow so, their loss is inevitable. Hiyori is the first and puts the group in chaos. Tousen use this moment to take out another captain. His bankai is really something, when he fought Zaraki, that was like the only guy his bankai wouldn’t be good matched with.
Anyway, Aizen shows himself. Shinji is the only one conscious for now. He tries to keep his cool in order to slow the hollowfication and manages to fight Tousen back for some time. Hiyori also tries to help him but, she’s quickly taken out. If he had been able to continue, maybe he had a chance at defeating Tousen and probably Gin. But it doesn’t matter the hollow ends up taking over.
Aizen prepares to kill them. It seems his interest was just to see some first test samples and then dispose of them. The loss in Soul Society’s powers would also help him and his companions achieve higher ranking positions.
Urahara and Tessai finally arrive and manage to stop Aizen for now.
How will things go now? Another well done episode. Something not so good is the fact that a filler arc has kind of been announced.. supposed to start after this arc ends.. hope it’s nothing long..
