So, how will TYBW Part 3 end? What's going to happen in the final 3 episodes? Will Gerard's fight begin? Will Askin defeat Ichigo? And will I be correct with where I think Part 3 will finish? Let me know your thoughts below - thanks everyone!
I wont pretend to be an expert on how this stuff usually works, but at a glance, i found myself wondering how theyll manage to fit ALL that into 3 episodes. Then i remember Its not the first time ive thought "theres just no way", but theyve managed to pull it off so far!
I am interested in the new Ikaku scene producers mentioned few months ago in an interview. I think he could replace renji and he could be the opener for Jerald fight since I can't really see him anywhere else at this point in the story.
We are getting an extra episode this cour and then the live stream with kubo saying that cour 4 will have a ton of new anime only content and kubo saying there will be whole episodes that weren't in the manga and will have everyone saying " i don't remember this part". I cant wait for the rest of this cour and cour 4. Cour 4 is about to be something that goes beyond "cinema" and I cannot wait.
Kira vs. Lille has to occur on night if they want to keep the moon panel accurate, this means it has to be only after Friend is done since it only becomes night after Bazz-b vs. Haschwalth is done.
I hope Cour 4 has Nanao healing her up only enough for her to heal the rest of the hurt shinigami including Kyoraku (which should really need some medical assistence lol). If these Soul King Soldat are really shaping up to be a big threat in Cour 4, it's possible everyone will end up fighting them, so Isane bringing back 4 lieutenant level shinigami + Kyoraku will be extremely valuable. I also hope they'll show the shinigami in SS start panicking right after bird Lille shows up, only for Iba to get the Kyoraku phone from the ground and do a motivational speech that would make the shinigami organize themselves better against the threat. I would really like redemption for the Vizards, Isane and Iba. I also want Ikkaku and Yumichika to be the ones to start the Gerard fight.
Yoruichi’s raijin senkei battle could make up for an awesome cliff hanger as well as Gerard’s first resurrection giving us a taste of both Askin and the miracle’s abilities. Placing us back to square one.
This is basically what I've been expecting and said before. We'll probably see an extended battle for the bambis and a quick fight scene of Gerard vs. the captains before he gets started using the Miracle, though, since tenji was defeated by uryu, we'll have to have a short catch-up to see what happened to him since he was in the fight vs Gerard in the manga..
I hope they adapt Kira's short novel "Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow". It would be a perfect flashback sequence that could appear when they reveal that he's still alive.
@@JJ-tq5sk None of the novels are not directly written by Kubo, but Kubo gave the authors the ideas he wanted conveyed and discussed how the stories should be told. The authors then just expand upon what was talked about to create a narrative. So technically it's similar to how the TYBW anime is handled. This novel in particular was written by Ryogo Narita the author of CFYOW, SAFWY, Baccano, and Durarara.
I would rather wait until Cour 4 than Izuru get a 5 minute fight with the lillemingoes. If they can give him at least half an episode and a badass fight like the Renji/Uryuu fight, then Yes! Awesome! If not, I'd rather see him get more content in Cour 4. It would be awesome if we got the Izuru reveal using the iconic panel, then got the "Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow" fight against Shaz done in retrospect in Cour 4... Probably wishful thinking, but ... 😅
I think it's mentioned in CFYOW that the Lille flamingos were eventually defeated and that it took a lot of Shinigami to do it. The only reason I remember that is because at the time, there was a user on either Reddit or Bleach Asylum who was absolutely adamant that Kira must have been defeated by Lille since it took multiple shinigami to beat him. It was one of those 1 vs. 100 arguments and I always remember it when I think about the Lille flamingos haha
It is genuinely insane how many fights we will get in cour 4: Yourichi/Urahara vs Askin, Gerard vs everyone, lol (including Adult Toshiro, Kenpachi Bankai), Uryu vs Haschwalth, Ichigo vs Yhwach, and Ichigo and Aizen vs Yhwach. Kubo just mentioned yesterday on a TokTok livestream that cour 4 will have entire new episodes of content. So could we pottentially see Isshin and Ryuken do something more and get more setup for THAT SILVER THING?
Imagine this as added content: Shunsui catches Isshin and Ryukin and assists them moving through the shadows to deliver the still silver to Uryu. Shunsui quips to Isshin they could have used his ban kai in this final battle stating even his fell short. Teasing Isshin's bankai even further and driving us all mad 😅
Episode 14 was planned way back last year because of the production issues, remember ep 26 had a 7 minute end credit and recap And episode 27 had a 10 minute recap 😂😂 So it makes sense we get another episode
I think they add 1 more Uryu fight. What if it's him fighting The Bambi's instead of Yhwach. 3 of the Bambis are already dead, so he doesn't have to hold back.
I like your last thought about Uryu showing up to the battle and leaving on a cliffhanger of not knowing if he's friend or foe, similar to the fullbring arc
Can't wait. This will be the perfect segway to the final battles before the final confrontation. Askin turning Ichigo into a carpet will certainly get the meme machines working that's for sure.
I've got two theories for cour 4. With Jushiro somehow not quite dead yet, when Yhwach finally comes back down to the Soul Society, either A, Mimihagi'll be puppeteering Jushiro's body, activating his bankai, or B, Aizen'll use his Kyoka Suigetsu to have Jushiro think his organs are still intact and have him fight until his body finally gives out.
So apparently we are getting the beginning of Gerard's and Askin's fight, the bambi's, Uryu vs Ichigo again and finally ending with Uryu vs Hashwalth on a cliff hanger I assume
Episode 40 begins Stark, Barragan and Ulquiorra returning from hell. Ulquiorra and Barragan eliminate Gerard's cross with a lanza del relampago infused with respira while Stark returns to his original form to eliminate Askin by becoming toxic to the quincy as he is a hollow (the most powerful ever seen).
I was wondering if you were going to make a video on this Tommo and once again you keep surprising me with your Bleach knowledge I really like the predicted timeline you set up for us at the end of the video
the fight ends at 12 sadly but heard theres some anime only scenes. i cant imagine it being major and properly just some sternritters we know appearing
@crosis2 dam icl isi possible idk how many chapters it has. I would've thought after friend uryu wud pop up after beating renji n then what ends is seeing jugram almighty maybe. Idk n I'm excited that idk
I think Ikaku will take Renji's place using his bankai along with Byakuya. Remember Ikaku hasn't gotten his big moment yet and the anime team said to look out for him.
9:58 okay i'm probably either jumping ahead a little bit, or jumping to conclusions. but how i see this playing out is that the anime will "ignore" the death of Lille for the final 3 episodes. whatever those happen to be. we'll then pick up on this subplot at the beginning of Cour 4 with a recap section in episode 1. this will act as the bridge, segueing nicely into Gerard. so yes, i think they're not going to show the Gerard fight at all this cour. or if they do, it'll be a tease at the end of episode 13 or 14. so how do i think it'll end as i'm sure you asked us to give our thoughts on at the end of this video? well i think it will end with the conclusion to Bazz B vs Haschwalth. and they'll tease Uryu at the end of that episode. which i think will be 14. so maybe we get a Gerard tease at the end of 13? seems possible to me. but then what about the Bambies? i think they'll intersperse that in to episode 13. cutting back & forth between that subplot and Bazz B vs Haschwalth. i think this weeks episode - i've only seen the firs 3 minutes so far, but it doesn't have subtitles yet so i'll come back to it tomorrow - will be entirely flashback. with maybe the last 2 or 3 minutes being a return to present day. i don't think the actual battle between Bazz B and Haschwalth will start. not the combat part, at least. i think it will be Bazz B confronting Haschwalth. an exchange of words, not blows. which i guess would mean an extra chapters worth of flashback? something like that. well those are my thoughts at least. EDIT!!! i forgot about Askin vs Ichigo. i think they'll add some scenes of this into episode 13 as well. so three fights will be happening simultaneously. and that'll give the Bazz B vs Haschwalth fight enough leeway, to take up the finale.
I don’t want, nor do I expect the anime to play out similarly to the manga. Kubo was being rushed so a lot of the content was cut all over the place. Hopefully he gets to continue with his course corrects. I say extend and change as much as possible. Especially in Cour 4!
There's a sudden, huge explosion. The remaining Shinigami feel a somewhat recognizable, but fierce presence... "HAHAHA. SURPRISED TO SEE ME, SHINIGAMI?!" ?! A large man walks out of the explosion born dust cloud, a man with a familiar mask and pony tail. "You all really thought I was the 0 Espada? Idiots, that makes no sense." The 0 starts to warp into a... Q. Yami, Schwift Q, the Queen of the Quinces joins the war.
I'm fairly confident that the Cour 3 finale will be centered around the reunion between Ichigo with his friends and Uryuu and subsequently the start of Uryuu vs. Haschwalth as Ichigo and co. run towards the final confrontation with Yhwach because we have one small panel of page 7 of chapter 661 (MY LAST WORDS) adapted in the ending (around the 1:15 mark).
making this a separate comment, just 'cause i think it'll be cleaner to read through. but you can consider this a direct follow up to my previous comment. 22:30 so what do i think? i think your outline is pretty good. i think it's a little too messy, and i just don't see them going in this direction. i think we're in the Uryu plotline is way too deep to wrap it up this quick. and i think the Gerard fight is way to grandiose for it to be a simple cliffhanger. so here's my outline, just to make it clear. episode 38: friend. almost entirely flashback, with maybe a couple minutes at the end teasing, possibly even in the post credits scene: their actual showdown. this is to give the whole flashback room to breathe. episode 39: Haschwalth vs Bazz B, Bambies subplot, and Ichigo vs Askin. i think the reason they didn't show Shinji & Omaeda vs Bazz B is because they were waiting to reveal Bazz Bs abilities for this fight. i think they're going to extend it, to give it the love it deserves. and i think the Bambies subplot will also get expanded on as well, because this is just way too interesting a tease not to pay off on. as for Ichigo vs Askin, i think this will get extended here because, well: he's kinda the main character. but i don't think they'll end it with Ichigo getting turned into a rug. i think we've long since passed the memes. episode 40: wrapping up all the loose ends from episode 39, establishing Uryu vs Haschwalth for cour 4, and leaving Lilles demis & Gerards fight for later as well. i think this is because, it's just simply cleaner. and it makes sense to me to open with a recap of the end of Kyoraku & Nanoa vs Lille. do i think they'll bring Izuru back? no, actually. i suspect what they might do is keep him dead, and have the remaining shinigami fend off the chirping birds. only for them to not quite have enough power. this fight will then awaken Aizen from his nap. noticing Kurotsuchi is no where to be found, he begins blasting out his spirit pressure. this destroys Chair Sama, rest in piece. grabbing the attention of the remaining birds, i think he then lines them all up for a kill shot of some kind. maybe even unleashing a brand new Kido. he then mutters, "well i wonder how the rest of the Gotei are doing, up there in War Welt" teasing that he knows more than he should. this than transitions us perfectly into the Gerard fight. which takes up the final quarter to third of the episode. that's how i think it'll go, at least
Uryu vs Ichigo rematch is gonna happen since episode adapt chapters 659 & 660 where both of them meeting again and have a small battle, but probably the anime expand it like they did with royal palace fight.
I think 38 is Friend, with the epilogue showing Kira confront the flamingo's. 39 and 40 will be Kira, Iba, and the resurrected Vizard. But, here's the thing. I think they've left Ukitake alive for a reason, and he'll play a part in killing Lille for good. They will also show some new scenes of Ichigo vs Askin. It'll end with him defeated and the rest of the gang running into Gerard. The last 10-15 minutes will be a party in the hotsprings where the girls and Ichigo can all hang out. Merry Christmas to all us perverts.
Would be cool, but also might be hard to work in. My understanding of him is his whole deal is if you don't One-Shot him, he can basically render the previous damage irrelevant due to his shrift and make it near impossible to hurt him in the same way in the future.
I’ve been saying this for a while now but something that I would love is the next episode being what happens with Izuru in the manga then doing a flashback into the beginning of the revive of tomorrow
I hope the anime will have Kira achieve Bankai. Lillie protested that a soul reaper‘s Bankai cannot kill him. We all know that soul king Yhwach is just playing with the Bambis. He likes to give his opponents a fleeting chance and then deliver true despair. After Auswahlen (and having died), these 5 amount to nothing but Quincy fodder which is why the Schutzstaffel ignored them. I also wish for more focus on Haschwalth as he is my most intriguing Quincy character.
Finally someone mentioned hashwalth he is the quincy grandmaster yet has the least fight scences of any character in bleach he supposed to be the 2nd strongest quincy yet the most mysterious
@@TAUJHpersonally I wanted him to survive the story. He is basically the Quincy equivalent of Byakuya so there was bound to be development. He’d take full responsibility, declare the end of the war and starts negotiations with Shunsui
I think we're ending off with the death of Bazz B and some new thing that'll recontexualized the conflict or someone relationship like we got with the Ichibei/Yhwach meeting in episode 24 I'm hoping we get more Soken, as I said it's baffling to me how little he was adressed in the manga and it would be even more eggrogious with the extra Uryu screen time here.
To me : The final episode or even friend must have some mention of Jugram with the almighty eyes. Mostly because the Cour 3 trailer ended with Jugram voice taken over by YW voice reading a poem of hope n despair
it is a possibility that yorouichi is not gonna come and rescue ichigo, I think THIS is something kubo has had a hand in changing the angle the anime takes completely from the manga; -instead of yorouichi intervening when ichigo struggles I see this happening: After collapsing from Askin’s “gift” and watching Ichigo struggling, Grimmjow grits his teeth, his body trembling as the poison surges through him. Askin gloats nearby, his usual smugness filling the air. Askin: “See? Wouldn’t it have been easier if we teamed up? Honestly, Grimmjow, I expected more from the ‘King.’ But don’t worry, I’ll handle Ichigo for us. You can lie there and be proud of-” Suddenly, the ground beneath Grimmjow cracks as he rises to his feet, blood dripping from his mouth. His voice, hoarse but filled with rage, cuts Askin off. Grimmjow: “Shut the hell up. If anyone’s killing that bastard, it’s ME. You think I’m gonna let some smug prick like you do it?!” Ichigo stares at Grimmjow, wide-eyed, about to object, but Grimmjow glares at him. Grimmjow: “Don’t get the wrong idea, Ichigo. I didn’t come back just to save your sorry ass. I told you before-only I get to kill you. So get the hell out of here. You’ve got bigger fish to fry up there, don’t you? Leave this one to me. This is MY fight.” Askin chuckles, unfazed. Askin: “How adorable. Even with my poison, you think you can beat me? What’s the plan, King Kitty?” Grimmjow lets out a low growl, his grin sharp and feral. His reiatsu begins to surge violently, shaking the air as a dark, crimson aura surrounds him. Grimmjow: “You wanna know what the plan is? I’ll show you just how much stronger I’ve gotten. You’re not fighting some washed-up Espada. You’re fighting the King. Segunda Etapa-Desgarrón Real!” With a deafening roar, Grimmjow transforms into his Second Release, his form more terrifying and regal than ever-sleek, jagged armor with blazing blue stripes, massive claws glowing with raw power, and a mane of flowing energy like a lion’s crown. Grimmjow: “You’re gonna regret pissing me off, poison boy. Let me show you how a real predator fights!” Grimmjow charges Askin with ferocious speed, leaving Ichigo behind. As they clash, Grimmjow yells over his shoulder: Grimmjow: “Don’t make me repeat myself, Ichigo. Get moving. I’ll settle this and catch up. And next time I see you, you’d better be ready. The King doesn’t lose.”
I imagine it will end with My Last Words, but they will shift around some scenes from the chapters before that. Probably wont get Thunder God Yoruichi and Hitsugaya until episode 40.
I think they better save that Thunder God stuff for cour 4, that stuff needs big amount of attention and peak animation. I feel its better to just expand on the original anime front and focus on Uryu and Jugram while preparing the other battles cour 4.
I'd say it'll go like that: -Probably we'll have something Gerard-related. I do remember seeing Hitsugaya's mature form in a trailer so, maybe, we'll arrive at that point in the fight but nothing after (maybe Hitsugaya and Byakuya's joint attack will be the cliffhanger for this fight). -I've heard that Askin vs Yoruichi was finished dubbing, so we'll probably have Shunko Yushiro and Yoruichi but, probably, nothing after. So I don't see Urahara doing anything in the finale (notice that he didn't say "Bankai" in the trailer, so no Urahara fight). So, Gerard and Askin will be carried over to Part 4. -Considering we didn't see the flamingos, I'm suspecting they might adapt Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow. It's a short story that could take, at most, 8 minutes, since it's more flashbacks and a "fight". It'd be the perfect chance to introduce Nayura to the story, since she's a very important character in the background. -Probably some new scenes of Yhwach's "battle" with the Femritters. -Probably the cliffhanger will be Almighty Hachwalth confronting Uryuu.
I quite agree about your final predictions but concerning ep40, i feel that between ichigo's group restarting their marathon scene and their meet with uryu, they may add a few scenes to not just concentrate half of the episode about ichigo running. I think the Gerard and Askin fights might (really) start, we saw in part 2 that they closed the cour without finishing ichibeis fight (altough they maybe planned to do so but couldnt due to productions issue, leading to ep27 1 year later). Personnally i would love (lmao) to see love's bankai against Gerard, altough it seems impossible due to its inexistant popularity...but ending the cour with a new bankai as cour 2 could create a lot of hype, and I dont see any characters who could reveal his bankai except love (would be incoherent to see kira use it) Anyway cant wait this 28/12, that week gonna be so long
Are yall forgetting that Soi fon is still alive ? Why aren’t we talking about how she could play a huge role in fighting Gerard or even fighting askin with yoruichi.
Anyone else still wondering what that pink portal was in the trailer and why we have only seen it once and it was never explained ? Maybe I missed a video but feels like it was important enough to put in a trailer then never seen again
Byakuya and Rukia tag-teaming Geralt would be super cool as we've seen that he's very strong even without the Miracle, as we've seen him in Vollstanding being able of fighting Shikai Senjumaru and smack her around. And man, a Bankai combo would be fanfiction material. Imagine that they combine the ice and petals to create a beautiful snowy blossom barrage that is what's used to destroy Gerard's head, much like it was only Byakuya that did that in the source material.
I'd love to see Gerard's fight in this cour, but there really isnt't any hint of it in the opening right? At the same time the op made clear that mayuri and kyoraku were having a fight
Knowing what we now know about episode 12, I hope we get a fight between the Bambies and either Hachwalt or Yhwach, and the bambies have their own similar, "friends-style" flashback
Adjustments to your outline if i had to guess/wish. 38 all Friend, maybe a post credit setting up the hour special. 39/40 izuru return. Yoruichi tags in with Ichigo so he can go on and she begins her fight with askin (just a tease). the bambi’s vs yhwach. Uryur vs Ichigo round 2 and reveal setting up Uryu vs Haschwalth as Ichigo goes to fight Yhwach. Setup for everyone vs Gerard.
I think it would be messy to get there, but for the themes of this season I think it ending with Ichigo and Co leaving Uryu to fight Jugram would be the best finisher. The season began with us unsure of Uryus motives, and ends with us resting assured that he is there to help.
Honestly one of the biggest predictions I’ve seen floating around is Ichigo vs. Uryu, it will be quite a sight if true. Still with an extra episode it’s a massive guessing game at this point.
Not having seen the leaks I think todays episode will start the same with the end of Kyorakus fight leading into Izurus appearance. If Izuru does get any more screentime it will be short or a powerful technique we havent yet seen. Then the episode will mostly be Bazz vs Haschwalth. Bazz will look like hes gaining the advantage and the scene will change over to Gerard. We will see Gerard get beaten brutally and then he will activate his God Size before bouncing back to Bazz getting beaten by Haschwalth. There may be a flashback but from Haschwalths perspective somewhat justifying his stance. Haschwalth notices Uryuu observing the fight and then makes a comment on how he had every intent to be merciful to Bazz. He never wanted to kill Bazz but he cant let Yhwachs vision be stopped. Then I imagine him saying "in spite of the Auswahlen boost WE can still show restraint" and Uryuu is shocked knowing his loyalty is being questioned for leaving Ichigo and Renji alive. Then Haschwalth tones things down by saying he was just talking to himself (royal we). Then maybe we will see a brief minute or so of Askin vs Yoruichi and the episode ends with Yoruichi on the ropes before Yushiro or Urahara appear.
Considering the general progression i would say that the forst episode is for the Bambies plus entirety of Askin fight. As for the second episode we will see the biggest jump against Gerrard upto Byakuya,Zaraki and Toshiro.
I think final two episodes title name's - god of thunder - where yoruichi comes to help ichigo and the other's then after kiske's help she defeats Askin, it ends up with this, last ep name - bigger, faster and stronger - vizords, captains vs gerard, some new scenes maybe we can see kenpachi's shikai again, toshiro and byakuya also helping him, this fight also ends with a cliffhanger and both will continue in final cour
@MrTommo2304 My own theory of the episodes is very similar but i believe all of askin and bambies will be covered in episode 39 and episode 40 all of gerard, but there is still something the staff hasn't adapted that needs to be covered as soon as possible, so that cour 4 has a better foundation and that is the chapter God like you. So my wild prediction is that episode 40 will not only cover it but contain an original and extended Yhwach flashback, then set up Gerard and finish with Uryu stuff. Hope to be right.
Here what i think will happen. Episode 38: will start with dead man standing and complete the bazz and jugo fight with a little bits of bambis side episodes post credit scenes will show us bambies death and yawach going to sleep and eyes opening to jugo (hashwelth) Episode 39: will open with ichigo and askin and it will go as far as yourichi joining and sending ichigo away. This will be first half of the episode. Send half will hopefull have ichigo vs ishida 2 this part will also set up the gerad fight as the team meet him. The episode will end with the poat credit scene or end of episode with haswelth intrperpting ichigo vs ishida. Episode 40: will start with ishida sending ichigo away to fight yawach and we will keep with ishida vs hashwelth. Episode might break in between gread fight or askin fight but the episode and core will end at the end of haswelth death and ichigo meeting yawach. Post credit scene might show us ichigo dad and ishida dad coming to soul palace with the silver arrow head. That's my prediction if even 70% of it becomes true please like this comment so in can come back and bost in front of my friend.😂
I honestly would prefer if everything to do with Gerard and Askin is pushed to Cour 4, and we just get a mega-Friends saga flashback capping off with Bazz-B's death, the defeat of the Bambis after an expanded battle, and Isshin and Ryuuken making their way to Währwelt relatively early. That last scene is especially important to me because I just want the two dads to have more opportunities to do something and get some character interactions, especially Ryuuken. EDIT: The Wandenreich so desperately need filling out that I would be more than fine with a short Naruto-style flashback filler arc finishing up Book 3. This would actually really help set up Cour 4 by giving Gerard and Askin more context and make it easier to organically reveal stuff about their backgrounds, and it would make this part of the story feel less empty.
Bambis vs the deceased Sternritter ( with the long-awaited reveal of Robert’s Schrift) would be best before Yhwach finish them off. Allow the Vizard to have an extended fight with Gerard, with Love showing his own Bankai, even if he’s soundly defeated
As I remember back before part 3 started Kubo said that there will be a new bankai that wasn't in the manga, so I assume the final episodes are probably a new fight
I would have to agree to your rough estimate of how it'd be for the 3 last episodes. It seems way too fitting to have it exactly like that. Considering the way we are now getting used to what they give us for the anime, it seems plausible to have it end Cour 3 this way.
i’m not surprised at all that we got an extra episode bc i’m pretty sure the second half of the first episode of this cour was supposed to be the last part of episode 26
Even though I'm sure the Bambies still stand no chance, I would love to see Liltotto use the true effect of her Glutton and use Pepe's power to control the new Soldat against Yhwach~
Hm, I don’t see how it possible to do Gerad fight. I think we will get friends and maybe expanded Quincy flash backs and Askin half of a fight , Gerad next season. We definitely getting Bazz B death by the end of Cour 3 along with the Bambi unless we get tons of Quincy flashback
The last couple episodes are likely to introduce the start of the fight against Gerard, and Yoruichi coming to interrupt Askin. Kisuke and Yushiro veering off to assist her, maybe Soifon, but unlikely. Stuff with Uryu, possibly Jugram, Ichigo’s group moving on. As for everything else, I kinda expect original content, including how Liltotto’s group gets defeated. Maybe hopes for bankaizuru vs Lille?
I personally think that it'll end on Isshin and Ryuken showing up in Warwelt. To me, that's the only thing that makes sense to end on at this point, since ending on Friend is officially out of the question. Plus it'll set up a potential plot point with them
I’m glad the anime gave the Gotei more to do, but I wish they could have spread the fights out more. 30ish villains introduced and so many characters are left with nothing to do. Byakuya and Kenpachi alone fight like 12 Sternritter, most of which were offscreen. Not to mention auswahlen kills a few and 2 are executed. There were way too many villains for most of the characters to have no feats. I don’t know how they could fix that without rewriting the entire arc, but that’s my only real complaint.
It's interesting that both Ichigo and Uryu got two fights in this cour with Ichigo losing both and Uryu winning both so knowing Kubo's style he might have Urahara arriving earlier to fight Askin and send Ichigo away so that their score is kept even for a rematch in episode 14 or, alternatively, Uryu wins yet another fight (maybe against the Bambies?) while Ichigo loses to Askin before they can get their rematch lmao Either way if a rematch actually happens I just hope they use Number One in it
i was thinking maybe it ends at jugram almighty scene or it would be uryu v jugram but idk tbh. bleach is the only anime which makes manga readers confuse on whats going to happen. And i love it
i expect it to end on almighty Jugo as well, but additional scenes with gizelle and liltotto or maybe an expanded backstory on Uryu and Ryuken can alter that.
@Archaoen0 it jugram's poem will be heard at the end of the ep 38. So 39 will start with jugram A and it's intittle My last word. So 39&40 will automatically reveal uryu's true intentions.
I keep seeing ads on the Viz Media I Instagram page showing Toshiro, Urahara and I feel like we’re sooo going to get Urahara’s fight with Askin and maybe the last episode will have the beginning of Gerard’s fight with adult Toshiro revealed(?) idk. Everything seems so compressed for that to happen within the last 2 episodes
i had almost the same predictions(setting up the cour 4 fights) until i learned through leaks that ep 39 title is THE VISIBLE ANSWER same as chapter 660, now im just confused as to how the anime will get us there and what will be the cliffhanger of this cour
Probably, a meet of Uryu & his friends with a quick clash between them. Then Jugram popping up to call bullshit on Uryu betrayal with Almighty, along with Kira reveal. Since, at that time it would be night time.
So, how will TYBW Part 3 end? What's going to happen in the final 3 episodes? Will Gerard's fight begin? Will Askin defeat Ichigo? And will I be correct with where I think Part 3 will finish? Let me know your thoughts below - thanks everyone!
When are you doing a live chat on RUclips?
Chad will power up and get a third arm called “El Gun” and he just pops all the bad guys.
I wont pretend to be an expert on how this stuff usually works, but at a glance, i found myself wondering how theyll manage to fit ALL that into 3 episodes. Then i remember Its not the first time ive thought "theres just no way", but theyve managed to pull it off so far!

I am interested in the new Ikaku scene producers mentioned few months ago in an interview. I think he could replace renji and he could be the opener for Jerald fight since I can't really see him anywhere else at this point in the story.
40 is clearly a Beach Episode where the gang goes to Okinawa for Christmas.

Kira vs. Lille has to occur on night if they want to keep the moon panel accurate, this means it has to be only after Friend is done since it only becomes night after Bazz-b vs. Haschwalth is done.
@@wakamoon1910 the moon is a symbol for something in bleach
You can’t even see the sky in the anime version, so i’m not sure how they’ll do it.
@@Dragonpuncher123 seireitei actually should be back to normal now since yhwach used the silbern buildings to make wahrwelt.
Can’t wait for Isane to unveil her Bankai and use it to One-Shot Yhwach.
Or she participates in the fights against Gerard.
Who?
@@TAUJH Our useless tall queen, new captain of squad 4?
I hope Cour 4 has Nanao healing her up only enough for her to heal the rest of the hurt shinigami including Kyoraku (which should really need some medical assistence lol).
If these Soul King Soldat are really shaping up to be a big threat in Cour 4, it's possible everyone will end up fighting them, so Isane bringing back 4 lieutenant level shinigami + Kyoraku will be extremely valuable.
I also hope they'll show the shinigami in SS start panicking right after bird Lille shows up, only for Iba to get the Kyoraku phone from the ground and do a motivational speech that would make the shinigami organize themselves better against the threat.
I would really like redemption for the Vizards, Isane and Iba.
I also want Ikkaku and Yumichika to be the ones to start the Gerard fight.
@@bqw2094She was taken out by Lille Barro. No way that's happening.
Yoruichi’s raijin senkei battle could make up for an awesome cliff hanger as well as Gerard’s first resurrection giving us a taste of both Askin and the miracle’s abilities. Placing us back to square one.
This is basically what I've been expecting and said before. We'll probably see an extended battle for the bambis and a quick fight scene of Gerard vs. the captains before he gets started using the Miracle, though, since tenji was defeated by uryu, we'll have to have a short catch-up to see what happened to him since he was in the fight vs Gerard in the manga..
See this guy gets it 👆
I hope they adapt Kira's short novel "Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow". It would be a perfect flashback sequence that could appear when they reveal that he's still alive.
Same that short novel was awesome
was that written by Kubo? just curious
@@JJ-tq5sk None of the novels are not directly written by Kubo, but Kubo gave the authors the ideas he wanted conveyed and discussed how the stories should be told. The authors then just expand upon what was talked about to create a narrative. So technically it's similar to how the TYBW anime is handled. This novel in particular was written by Ryogo Narita the author of CFYOW, SAFWY, Baccano, and Durarara.
Idk, I feel like that would break the pacing
Prob a chrismas episode lol
Soul reapers and quincies stop fighting for one day lmfao
@@sanicboi9187 Perfect tie in to the Izuru fight: they can serve Roasted Lille for the Christmas meal.
Christmas Episode with Kon
Hell nah..
Man don’t say that shit 😂 I’ll be so
Pissed
I need that Izuru scene so badly 🙏
Wish Kira, Renji and Momo got together again. The rookies turning savage in TYBW
izuru, tetsuzaemon and the doggy beating lilles left over flamingos
Truth. More so since he helped jumpstart Soul Society's change by saving the only reformist member of Central 46. He needs his time to shine.
I would rather wait until Cour 4 than Izuru get a 5 minute fight with the lillemingoes. If they can give him at least half an episode and a badass fight like the Renji/Uryuu fight, then Yes! Awesome! If not, I'd rather see him get more content in Cour 4. It would be awesome if we got the Izuru reveal using the iconic panel, then got the "Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow" fight against Shaz done in retrospect in Cour 4... Probably wishful thinking, but ... 😅
Why?! he sucks!😂😂
I think it's mentioned in CFYOW that the Lille flamingos were eventually defeated and that it took a lot of Shinigami to do it. The only reason I remember that is because at the time, there was a user on either Reddit or Bleach Asylum who was absolutely adamant that Kira must have been defeated by Lille since it took multiple shinigami to beat him. It was one of those 1 vs. 100 arguments and I always remember it when I think about the Lille flamingos haha
I wished one of his flamingos got away
"it was stated in cfyow"
@@P0w_artwhich is canon btw lol
@@P0w_artrelax... both novels are canon
It is genuinely insane how many fights we will get in cour 4: Yourichi/Urahara vs Askin, Gerard vs everyone, lol (including Adult Toshiro, Kenpachi Bankai), Uryu vs Haschwalth, Ichigo vs Yhwach, and Ichigo and Aizen vs Yhwach. Kubo just mentioned yesterday on a TokTok livestream that cour 4 will have entire new episodes of content. So could we pottentially see Isshin and Ryuken do something more and get more setup for THAT SILVER THING?
Imagine this as added content: Shunsui catches Isshin and Ryukin and assists them moving through the shadows to deliver the still silver to Uryu. Shunsui quips to Isshin they could have used his ban kai in this final battle stating even his fell short. Teasing Isshin's bankai even further and driving us all mad 😅
Imagine if the cour ends on the shot of rug ichigo
I thought that may be it for awhile, not gonna lie. I don't think that's the case anymore
Episode 14 was planned way back last year because of the production issues, remember ep 26 had a 7 minute end credit and recap
And episode 27 had a 10 minute recap 😂😂
So it makes sense we get another episode
I think they add 1 more Uryu fight. What if it's him fighting The Bambi's instead of Yhwach. 3 of the Bambis are already dead, so he doesn't have to hold back.
My predictions:
Ep.38 covers the whole bazz-b vs jugo fight.
Ep.39 sets up the Gerard and Askin match ups.
Ep.40 Ichigo has a rematch with Uryu.
you're right about 39 but 40 is all about uryu vs jugram the trailer is out...
I like your last thought about Uryu showing up to the battle and leaving on a cliffhanger of not knowing if he's friend or foe, similar to the fullbring arc
Setup for Cour 4 Ep 1
- Gerard vs Everyone
- Askin vs Crew
- Halshwald vs Ishida
- HoS Ichigo vs Bach
HoS is way too early to be Ep 1 of the Cour. Regardless of extensions or not.
Can't wait. This will be the perfect segway to the final battles before the final confrontation. Askin turning Ichigo into a carpet will certainly get the meme machines working that's for sure.
I really want askin to turn ichigo into a carpet, but the way things are going I have a feeling that's going to be taken away.
Hope we see almighty jugram before the cour ends . Curious to see how they handle his changed personality
It seems we will
I've got two theories for cour 4.
With Jushiro somehow not quite dead yet, when Yhwach finally comes back down to the Soul Society, either A, Mimihagi'll be puppeteering Jushiro's body, activating his bankai, or B, Aizen'll use his Kyoka Suigetsu to have Jushiro think his organs are still intact and have him fight until his body finally gives out.
I cannot wait for tomorrow and next week!
Holding out for Chad vs Yhwach
28 is my birthday, very happy day it will be with 2 episodes. Episode 12 was one of the best, ever.
So apparently we are getting the beginning of Gerard's and Askin's fight, the bambi's, Uryu vs Ichigo again and finally ending with Uryu vs Hashwalth on a cliff hanger I assume
Episode 40 begins Stark, Barragan and Ulquiorra returning from hell. Ulquiorra and Barragan eliminate Gerard's cross with a lanza del relampago infused with respira while Stark returns to his original form to eliminate Askin by becoming toxic to the quincy as he is a hollow (the most powerful ever seen).
That's gonna happen for sure 😂
im gonna lie, this is fire
Stark soloing askin is going to be peak.
I was wondering if you were going to make a video on this Tommo and once again you keep surprising me with your Bleach knowledge I really like the predicted timeline you set up for us at the end of the video
12 extended flashback and Bazz B fight reaching into 13, Uryuu vs Hashwalth in 13 and 14
the fight ends at 12 sadly but heard theres some anime only scenes. i cant imagine it being major and properly just some sternritters we know appearing
@@Abdinio-everythingI seen leaks no sternitteers we know are in it
Or we may get the whole Askin fight in 13+14. His comment about Gerard could be cut as other of his scenes.
It's already confirmed that the fight ends next episode. The episode is 26 mins tho, so there's a good amount of added content
@crosis2 dam icl isi possible idk how many chapters it has. I would've thought after friend uryu wud pop up after beating renji n then what ends is seeing jugram almighty maybe. Idk n I'm excited that idk
I think Ikaku will take Renji's place using his bankai along with Byakuya. Remember Ikaku hasn't gotten his big moment yet and the anime team said to look out for him.
that was a translation error
@troytheboy1985 Guess we'll know for sure next week cause my boy needs some airtime.
9:58 okay i'm probably either jumping ahead a little bit, or jumping to conclusions. but how i see this playing out is that the anime will "ignore" the death of Lille for the final 3 episodes. whatever those happen to be. we'll then pick up on this subplot at the beginning of Cour 4 with a recap section in episode 1. this will act as the bridge, segueing nicely into Gerard. so yes, i think they're not going to show the Gerard fight at all this cour. or if they do, it'll be a tease at the end of episode 13 or 14.
so how do i think it'll end as i'm sure you asked us to give our thoughts on at the end of this video? well i think it will end with the conclusion to Bazz B vs Haschwalth. and they'll tease Uryu at the end of that episode. which i think will be 14. so maybe we get a Gerard tease at the end of 13? seems possible to me. but then what about the Bambies? i think they'll intersperse that in to episode 13. cutting back & forth between that subplot and Bazz B vs Haschwalth. i think this weeks episode - i've only seen the firs 3 minutes so far, but it doesn't have subtitles yet so i'll come back to it tomorrow - will be entirely flashback. with maybe the last 2 or 3 minutes being a return to present day. i don't think the actual battle between Bazz B and Haschwalth will start. not the combat part, at least. i think it will be Bazz B confronting Haschwalth. an exchange of words, not blows. which i guess would mean an extra chapters worth of flashback? something like that.
well those are my thoughts at least.
EDIT!!!
i forgot about Askin vs Ichigo. i think they'll add some scenes of this into episode 13 as well. so three fights will be happening simultaneously. and that'll give the Bazz B vs Haschwalth fight enough leeway, to take up the finale.
Considering extra episodes have been confirmed, the last 2 eps of cour 3 could have been named "The Miracle" and "The Miracle Part 2"
I don’t want, nor do I expect the anime to play out similarly to the manga.
Kubo was being rushed so a lot of the content was cut all over the place. Hopefully he gets to continue with his course corrects. I say extend and change as much as possible. Especially in Cour 4!
There's a sudden, huge explosion. The remaining Shinigami feel a somewhat recognizable, but fierce presence... "HAHAHA. SURPRISED TO SEE ME, SHINIGAMI?!"
?!
A large man walks out of the explosion born dust cloud, a man with a familiar mask and pony tail. "You all really thought I was the 0 Espada? Idiots, that makes no sense." The 0 starts to warp into a... Q.
Yami, Schwift Q, the Queen of the Quinces joins the war.
I'm fairly confident that the Cour 3 finale will be centered around the reunion between Ichigo with his friends and Uryuu and subsequently the start of Uryuu vs. Haschwalth as Ichigo and co. run towards the final confrontation with Yhwach because we have one small panel of page 7 of chapter 661 (MY LAST WORDS) adapted in the ending (around the 1:15 mark).
Cour 4 is gonna be unrecognisable from the manga
making this a separate comment, just 'cause i think it'll be cleaner to read through. but you can consider this a direct follow up to my previous comment.
22:30
so what do i think? i think your outline is pretty good. i think it's a little too messy, and i just don't see them going in this direction. i think we're in the Uryu plotline is way too deep to wrap it up this quick. and i think the Gerard fight is way to grandiose for it to be a simple cliffhanger. so here's my outline, just to make it clear.
episode 38: friend. almost entirely flashback, with maybe a couple minutes at the end teasing, possibly even in the post credits scene: their actual showdown. this is to give the whole flashback room to breathe.
episode 39: Haschwalth vs Bazz B, Bambies subplot, and Ichigo vs Askin. i think the reason they didn't show Shinji & Omaeda vs Bazz B is because they were waiting to reveal Bazz Bs abilities for this fight. i think they're going to extend it, to give it the love it deserves. and i think the Bambies subplot will also get expanded on as well, because this is just way too interesting a tease not to pay off on. as for Ichigo vs Askin, i think this will get extended here because, well: he's kinda the main character. but i don't think they'll end it with Ichigo getting turned into a rug. i think we've long since passed the memes.
episode 40: wrapping up all the loose ends from episode 39, establishing Uryu vs Haschwalth for cour 4, and leaving Lilles demis & Gerards fight for later as well. i think this is because, it's just simply cleaner. and it makes sense to me to open with a recap of the end of Kyoraku & Nanoa vs Lille. do i think they'll bring Izuru back? no, actually. i suspect what they might do is keep him dead, and have the remaining shinigami fend off the chirping birds. only for them to not quite have enough power. this fight will then awaken Aizen from his nap. noticing Kurotsuchi is no where to be found, he begins blasting out his spirit pressure. this destroys Chair Sama, rest in piece. grabbing the attention of the remaining birds, i think he then lines them all up for a kill shot of some kind. maybe even unleashing a brand new Kido. he then mutters, "well i wonder how the rest of the Gotei are doing, up there in War Welt" teasing that he knows more than he should. this than transitions us perfectly into the Gerard fight. which takes up the final quarter to third of the episode.
that's how i think it'll go, at least
Uryu vs Ichigo rematch is gonna happen since episode adapt chapters 659 & 660 where both of them meeting again and have a small battle, but probably the anime expand it like they did with royal palace fight.
I think 38 is Friend, with the epilogue showing Kira confront the flamingo's. 39 and 40 will be Kira, Iba, and the resurrected Vizard. But, here's the thing. I think they've left Ukitake alive for a reason, and he'll play a part in killing Lille for good.
They will also show some new scenes of Ichigo vs Askin. It'll end with him defeated and the rest of the gang running into Gerard.
The last 10-15 minutes will be a party in the hotsprings where the girls and Ichigo can all hang out. Merry Christmas to all us perverts.
ALL I GOTTA SAY IS MY BABY SOI FON HASNT BEEN SHOT
I hope we get to see my boi askin at least one more time before the end imagine he was around during the events of the friend saga!?
Would be cool, but also might be hard to work in.
My understanding of him is his whole deal is if you don't One-Shot him, he can basically render the previous damage irrelevant due to his shrift and make it near impossible to hurt him in the same way in the future.
I want A Very Aizen Christmas. It's a single episode where Aizen is sat in chair-sama reciting a monologue about the spirit of Christmas.
I’ve been saying this for a while now but something that I would love is the next episode being what happens with Izuru in the manga then doing a flashback into the beginning of the revive of tomorrow
I hope the anime will have Kira achieve Bankai. Lillie protested that a soul reaper‘s Bankai cannot kill him.
We all know that soul king Yhwach is just playing with the Bambis. He likes to give his opponents a fleeting chance and then deliver true despair. After Auswahlen (and having died), these 5 amount to nothing but Quincy fodder which is why the Schutzstaffel ignored them.
I also wish for more focus on Haschwalth as he is my most intriguing Quincy character.
Finally someone mentioned hashwalth he is the quincy grandmaster yet has the least fight scences of any character in bleach he supposed to be the 2nd strongest quincy yet the most mysterious
@@TAUJHpersonally I wanted him to survive the story. He is basically the Quincy equivalent of Byakuya so there was bound to be development. He’d take full responsibility, declare the end of the war and starts negotiations with Shunsui
I actually like the idea of Lille insisting a bankai can't kill him only to be done in by one of the most underrated workhorse shikais in the series.
@@tinfoilslacks3750yeah I mean some Shikai alone a pretty op already or work in a team effort.
I think we're ending off with the death of Bazz B and some new thing that'll recontexualized the conflict or someone relationship like we got with the Ichibei/Yhwach meeting in episode 24
I'm hoping we get more Soken, as I said it's baffling to me how little he was adressed in the manga and it would be even more eggrogious with the extra Uryu screen time here.
To me : The final episode or even friend must have some mention of Jugram with the almighty eyes. Mostly because the Cour 3 trailer ended with Jugram voice taken over by YW voice reading a poem of hope n despair
it is a possibility that yorouichi is not gonna come and rescue ichigo, I think THIS is something kubo has had a hand in changing the angle the anime takes completely from the manga;
-instead of yorouichi intervening when ichigo struggles I see this happening:
After collapsing from Askin’s “gift” and watching Ichigo struggling, Grimmjow grits his teeth, his body trembling as the poison surges through him. Askin gloats nearby, his usual smugness filling the air.
Askin:
“See? Wouldn’t it have been easier if we teamed up? Honestly, Grimmjow, I expected more from the ‘King.’ But don’t worry, I’ll handle Ichigo for us. You can lie there and be proud of-”
Suddenly, the ground beneath Grimmjow cracks as he rises to his feet, blood dripping from his mouth. His voice, hoarse but filled with rage, cuts Askin off.
Grimmjow:
“Shut the hell up. If anyone’s killing that bastard, it’s ME. You think I’m gonna let some smug prick like you do it?!”
Ichigo stares at Grimmjow, wide-eyed, about to object, but Grimmjow glares at him.
Grimmjow:
“Don’t get the wrong idea, Ichigo. I didn’t come back just to save your sorry ass. I told you before-only I get to kill you. So get the hell out of here. You’ve got bigger fish to fry up there, don’t you? Leave this one to me. This is MY fight.”
Askin chuckles, unfazed.
Askin:
“How adorable. Even with my poison, you think you can beat me? What’s the plan, King Kitty?”
Grimmjow lets out a low growl, his grin sharp and feral. His reiatsu begins to surge violently, shaking the air as a dark, crimson aura surrounds him.
Grimmjow:
“You wanna know what the plan is? I’ll show you just how much stronger I’ve gotten. You’re not fighting some washed-up Espada. You’re fighting the King. Segunda Etapa-Desgarrón Real!”
With a deafening roar, Grimmjow transforms into his Second Release, his form more terrifying and regal than ever-sleek, jagged armor with blazing blue stripes, massive claws glowing with raw power, and a mane of flowing energy like a lion’s crown.
Grimmjow:
“You’re gonna regret pissing me off, poison boy. Let me show you how a real predator fights!”
Grimmjow charges Askin with ferocious speed, leaving Ichigo behind. As they clash, Grimmjow yells over his shoulder:
Grimmjow:
“Don’t make me repeat myself, Ichigo. Get moving. I’ll settle this and catch up. And next time I see you, you’d better be ready. The King doesn’t lose.”
So we’re just getting a WHOLE episode for the Friend saga, huh?? Whole episode of flashbacks??????? Yes please
I imagine it will end with My Last Words, but they will shift around some scenes from the chapters before that. Probably wont get Thunder God Yoruichi and Hitsugaya until episode 40.
nahh they going to use that form of yoruichi and hitsugaya being involved in the gerard fight in cour 4
I think they better save that Thunder God stuff for cour 4, that stuff needs big amount of attention and peak animation. I feel its better to just expand on the original anime front and focus on Uryu and Jugram while preparing the other battles cour 4.
@@WieldMyWord Yeah they are gonna need to skip it for episode 39 already, if the leaks are anything to go by.
I'd say it'll go like that:
-Probably we'll have something Gerard-related. I do remember seeing Hitsugaya's mature form in a trailer so, maybe, we'll arrive at that point in the fight but nothing after (maybe Hitsugaya and Byakuya's joint attack will be the cliffhanger for this fight).
-I've heard that Askin vs Yoruichi was finished dubbing, so we'll probably have Shunko Yushiro and Yoruichi but, probably, nothing after. So I don't see Urahara doing anything in the finale (notice that he didn't say "Bankai" in the trailer, so no Urahara fight). So, Gerard and Askin will be carried over to Part 4.
-Considering we didn't see the flamingos, I'm suspecting they might adapt Beginning of the Revive of Tomorrow. It's a short story that could take, at most, 8 minutes, since it's more flashbacks and a "fight". It'd be the perfect chance to introduce Nayura to the story, since she's a very important character in the background.
-Probably some new scenes of Yhwach's "battle" with the Femritters.
-Probably the cliffhanger will be Almighty Hachwalth confronting Uryuu.
since apperently cour 4 is going to have a whole lot of original content i wonder what they could do there
I quite agree about your final predictions but concerning ep40, i feel that between ichigo's group restarting their marathon scene and their meet with uryu, they may add a few scenes to not just concentrate half of the episode about ichigo running. I think the Gerard and Askin fights might (really) start, we saw in part 2 that they closed the cour without finishing ichibeis fight (altough they maybe planned to do so but couldnt due to productions issue, leading to ep27 1 year later). Personnally i would love (lmao) to see love's bankai against Gerard, altough it seems impossible due to its inexistant popularity...but ending the cour with a new bankai as cour 2 could create a lot of hype, and I dont see any characters who could reveal his bankai except love (would be incoherent to see kira use it)
Anyway cant wait this 28/12, that week gonna be so long
How on earth did bazz b and the other 2 think they could handle ywach and hashwalth by themselves is insane.
A full episode of Chad, the Testicular Fortitude of the Soul King, fighting against the Ü Sternritter, the Über!
Are yall forgetting that Soi fon is still alive ? Why aren’t we talking about how she could play a huge role in fighting Gerard or even fighting askin with yoruichi.
Anyone else still wondering what that pink portal was in the trailer and why we have only seen it once and it was never explained ?
Maybe I missed a video but feels like it was important enough to put in a trailer then never seen again
Circling back to this after seeing the trailer for the last episodes of the cour, maybe getting some answers
We might get uryu vs ichigo until jugram pulls up to uryu exposing him
Byakuya and Rukia tag-teaming Geralt would be super cool as we've seen that he's very strong even without the Miracle, as we've seen him in Vollstanding being able of fighting Shikai Senjumaru and smack her around.
And man, a Bankai combo would be fanfiction material. Imagine that they combine the ice and petals to create a beautiful snowy blossom barrage that is what's used to destroy Gerard's head, much like it was only Byakuya that did that in the source material.
Praying for a beach episode still mad they cut the masaki scene
I hope I can see Soifon in action. I really hope she does something, even if it’s just a small part. 😔
Soifon is ass
Kira's Bankai please 🙏
It's a longshot, but it'd be neat to see Nel do something.
I'd love to see Gerard's fight in this cour, but there really isnt't any hint of it in the opening right? At the same time the op made clear that mayuri and kyoraku were having a fight
Knowing what we now know about episode 12, I hope we get a fight between the Bambies and either Hachwalt or Yhwach, and the bambies have their own similar, "friends-style" flashback
Adjustments to your outline if i had to guess/wish.
38 all Friend, maybe a post credit setting up the hour special.
39/40 izuru return. Yoruichi tags in with Ichigo so he can go on and she begins her fight with askin (just a tease). the bambi’s vs yhwach. Uryur vs Ichigo round 2 and reveal setting up Uryu vs Haschwalth as Ichigo goes to fight Yhwach. Setup for everyone vs Gerard.
I seen leaks of torromows episode and it’s just like the manga with some new scenes of bazz b home getting destroyed and more
I think it would be messy to get there, but for the themes of this season I think it ending with Ichigo and Co leaving Uryu to fight Jugram would be the best finisher. The season began with us unsure of Uryus motives, and ends with us resting assured that he is there to help.
Honestly one of the biggest predictions I’ve seen floating around is Ichigo vs. Uryu, it will be quite a sight if true. Still with an extra episode it’s a massive guessing game at this point.
Not having seen the leaks I think todays episode will start the same with the end of Kyorakus fight leading into Izurus appearance. If Izuru does get any more screentime it will be short or a powerful technique we havent yet seen. Then the episode will mostly be Bazz vs Haschwalth. Bazz will look like hes gaining the advantage and the scene will change over to Gerard. We will see Gerard get beaten brutally and then he will activate his God Size before bouncing back to Bazz getting beaten by Haschwalth. There may be a flashback but from Haschwalths perspective somewhat justifying his stance. Haschwalth notices Uryuu observing the fight and then makes a comment on how he had every intent to be merciful to Bazz. He never wanted to kill Bazz but he cant let Yhwachs vision be stopped. Then I imagine him saying "in spite of the Auswahlen boost WE can still show restraint" and Uryuu is shocked knowing his loyalty is being questioned for leaving Ichigo and Renji alive. Then Haschwalth tones things down by saying he was just talking to himself (royal we). Then maybe we will see a brief minute or so of Askin vs Yoruichi and the episode ends with Yoruichi on the ropes before Yushiro or Urahara appear.
Considering the general progression i would say that the forst episode is for the Bambies plus entirety of Askin fight.
As for the second episode we will see the biggest jump against Gerrard upto Byakuya,Zaraki and Toshiro.
I hope that we will get Urahara fight as finale for this season.🤩
Praying to god we get an uryu and haschwalth fight where we see haschwalths vollstandig
I think final two episodes title name's - god of thunder - where yoruichi comes to help ichigo and the other's then after kiske's help she defeats Askin, it ends up with this, last ep name - bigger, faster and stronger - vizords, captains vs gerard, some new scenes maybe we can see kenpachi's shikai again, toshiro and byakuya also helping him, this fight also ends with a cliffhanger and both will continue in final cour
@MrTommo2304 My own theory of the episodes is very similar but i believe all of askin and bambies will be covered in episode 39 and episode 40 all of gerard, but there is still something the staff hasn't adapted that needs to be covered as soon as possible, so that cour 4 has a better foundation and that is the chapter God like you.
So my wild prediction is that episode 40 will not only cover it but contain an original and extended Yhwach flashback, then set up Gerard and finish with Uryu stuff. Hope to be right.
Honestly gonna be the best birthday ever especially with episode 38 coming out on it:)
Here what i think will happen.
Episode 38: will start with dead man standing and complete the bazz and jugo fight with a little bits of bambis side episodes post credit scenes will show us bambies death and yawach going to sleep and eyes opening to jugo (hashwelth)
Episode 39: will open with ichigo and askin and it will go as far as yourichi joining and sending ichigo away. This will be first half of the episode.
Send half will hopefull have ichigo vs ishida 2 this part will also set up the gerad fight as the team meet him.
The episode will end with the poat credit scene or end of episode with haswelth intrperpting ichigo vs ishida.
Episode 40: will start with ishida sending ichigo away to fight yawach and we will keep with ishida vs hashwelth.
Episode might break in between gread fight or askin fight but the episode and core will end at the end of haswelth death and ichigo meeting yawach.
Post credit scene might show us ichigo dad and ishida dad coming to soul palace with the silver arrow head.
That's my prediction if even 70% of it becomes true please like this comment so in can come back and bost in front of my friend.😂
Last 2 will probably have the whole Askin fight , so they can have the full Gerard at the start of cour 4 full out. or perhaps Uryu vs Hashwalt
I hope they show us Love's bankai, the only Visored whose bankai we have yet to see.
isnt there a shot of Kisuke in one of the trailer thats like right before his bankai?
I honestly would prefer if everything to do with Gerard and Askin is pushed to Cour 4, and we just get a mega-Friends saga flashback capping off with Bazz-B's death, the defeat of the Bambis after an expanded battle, and Isshin and Ryuuken making their way to Währwelt relatively early. That last scene is especially important to me because I just want the two dads to have more opportunities to do something and get some character interactions, especially Ryuuken.
EDIT: The Wandenreich so desperately need filling out that I would be more than fine with a short Naruto-style flashback filler arc finishing up Book 3. This would actually really help set up Cour 4 by giving Gerard and Askin more context and make it easier to organically reveal stuff about their backgrounds, and it would make this part of the story feel less empty.
Bambis vs the deceased Sternritter ( with the long-awaited reveal of Robert’s Schrift) would be best before Yhwach finish them off.
Allow the Vizard to have an extended fight with Gerard, with Love showing his own Bankai, even if he’s soundly defeated
As I remember back before part 3 started Kubo said that there will be a new bankai that wasn't in the manga, so I assume the final episodes are probably a new fight
We need that Izuru Bankai scene
I would have to agree to your rough estimate of how it'd be for the 3 last episodes. It seems way too fitting to have it exactly like that. Considering the way we are now getting used to what they give us for the anime, it seems plausible to have it end Cour 3 this way.
i’m not surprised at all that we got an extra episode bc i’m pretty sure the second half of the first episode of this cour was supposed to be the last part of episode 26
Even though I'm sure the Bambies still stand no chance, I would love to see Liltotto use the true effect of her Glutton and use Pepe's power to control the new Soldat against Yhwach~
Hm, I don’t see how it possible to do Gerad fight. I think we will get friends and maybe expanded Quincy flash backs and Askin half of a fight , Gerad next season. We definitely getting Bazz B death by the end of Cour 3 along with the Bambi unless we get tons of Quincy flashback
The last couple episodes are likely to introduce the start of the fight against Gerard, and Yoruichi coming to interrupt Askin. Kisuke and Yushiro veering off to assist her, maybe Soifon, but unlikely. Stuff with Uryu, possibly Jugram, Ichigo’s group moving on. As for everything else, I kinda expect original content, including how Liltotto’s group gets defeated. Maybe hopes for bankaizuru vs Lille?
Actually surprised you have kept Ichigo's defeat being off-screen in the outline
I personally think that it'll end on Isshin and Ryuken showing up in Warwelt. To me, that's the only thing that makes sense to end on at this point, since ending on Friend is officially out of the question. Plus it'll set up a potential plot point with them
I’m glad the anime gave the Gotei more to do, but I wish they could have spread the fights out more. 30ish villains introduced and so many characters are left with nothing to do. Byakuya and Kenpachi alone fight like 12 Sternritter, most of which were offscreen. Not to mention auswahlen kills a few and 2 are executed. There were way too many villains for most of the characters to have no feats. I don’t know how they could fix that without rewriting the entire arc, but that’s my only real complaint.
We only have about 30-40 chapters left to adapt and 16 episodes to go.
We are going to have a lore breaking amount of new content.
the episode does have some additions but still manages to completely adapt the friend saga.
Ukitake is literally still alive and spitting out mimihagi how are you not mentioning this
Actually he died the moment mimihagi took over
Hope they leave out the Ichigo carpet entirely or just expand it. More Grimmjow scenes would be amazing too 👏🏼
It's interesting that both Ichigo and Uryu got two fights in this cour with Ichigo losing both and Uryu winning both so knowing Kubo's style he might have Urahara arriving earlier to fight Askin and send Ichigo away so that their score is kept even for a rematch in episode 14 or, alternatively, Uryu wins yet another fight (maybe against the Bambies?) while Ichigo loses to Askin before they can get their rematch lmao
Either way if a rematch actually happens I just hope they use Number One in it
tomorrow will tell whether kubo will play with our dreams or our sanity
i was thinking maybe it ends at jugram almighty scene or it would be uryu v jugram but idk tbh. bleach is the only anime which makes manga readers confuse on whats going to happen. And i love it
i expect it to end on almighty Jugo as well, but additional scenes with gizelle and liltotto or maybe an expanded backstory on Uryu and Ryuken can alter that.
@Archaoen0 it jugram's poem will be heard at the end of the ep 38.
So 39 will start with jugram A and it's intittle My last word.
So 39&40 will automatically reveal uryu's true intentions.
I keep seeing ads on the Viz Media I Instagram page showing Toshiro, Urahara and I feel like we’re sooo going to get Urahara’s fight with Askin and maybe the last episode will have the beginning of Gerard’s fight with adult Toshiro revealed(?) idk. Everything seems so compressed for that to happen within the last 2 episodes
i had almost the same predictions(setting up the cour 4 fights) until i learned through leaks that ep 39 title is THE VISIBLE ANSWER same as chapter 660, now im just confused as to how the anime will get us there and what will be the cliffhanger of this cour
Probably, a meet of Uryu & his friends with a quick clash between them. Then Jugram popping up to call bullshit on Uryu betrayal with Almighty, along with Kira reveal. Since, at that time it would be night time.
