To anyone who’s watched the filler arcs — Which is your favourite? Which ones are worth watching and which are really bad? cuz I finished watching Bleach exactly today, (without fillers) and I want to go back and watch all the fillers.
The bount arc is the most boring thing I’ve ever watched
Haven’t watched Gotei 13 Invading Army so i won’t give any opinion on that, but for the rest:
– Bount Arc (0/10): Absolute trash, one of the worst arcs i’ve ever watched in my anime watching career. For comparision, it’s as bad as Boruto’s filler arcs, but at least Boruto’s filler arcs end pretty quick, this Bount arc lasts forever, completely torture.
– The New Captain Shūsuke Amagai Arc (5.5/10): Not really good but not that bad, it gives you somewhat relaxation when the new captain is such a cutie and badass at the same time, the plot twist is ok, not mind blowing but at least when watching it i can tell the scripting team did actually put some effort onto the script. Whatever i just complimented are for the first episodes and the last episodes. The middle episodes of that arc are kinda trash but of course not Bount-level trash.
– Zanpakutō Unknown Tales Arc (7-10): Pretty well done with the plot, like they could be an official arc and i wouln’t mind at all. So i would recommend this arc
Im currently on the Arrancar arrival arc and theres a lot of good fillers it it. But its getting kinda boring because everyone is still training and fillers are good but also boring. When will Ichigo op? i like op characters
don’t watch filler
Why not? A lot of people say that some of the filler arcs are worth watching??
Past arc was best. Change my mind
tywb. No need to explain
Too many corny scene but its fun because of inoue b**bs
what arc is this…
dope
