Bleach - Episode 274 - Hitsugaya's Desperate Frozen-Heavens Countless Ornate Entombment! - Review and Summary

Summary:

The majority of the episode was focussed around Harribel and Hitsugaya. Harribel releases and fires some water at Hitsugaya, who turns it into ice. When Hitsugaya attacks back Harribel turns his ice dragon into water and attacks back surprising him, using her special technique, cascade.

Hitsugaya attacks again, Harribel turns his ice into water, then Hitsugaya appears behind her and turns the water back into ice and slashes at her. Encasing her in ice. There is a short break from Hitsugaya and Harribel's fight and we see Kyoraku and Spark who are pretty much fake fighting. Kyoraku gets Spark to use his cero, which is a nice deep blue.

Then we go back to the right between Hitsugaya and Harribel who uses her cero, which interestingly enoug she fires with her sword.

Hitsugaya shields himself using the wings of his bankai. When Harribel catches back up to him she tells him no more running. He informs her he knows they're both waiting for the area to fill with water but says after that he doesn't need to wait, just when it look like he's about to go all out, he looks down and notices all the injured and decides against it, instead he uses sennen hyoro and encases her in ice, but of course that doesn't work and she turns it all into ice and uses cascade again, except this one is much more powerful since there was a lot more ice to be made into water.

Hitsugaya uses ryusenka and turns the massive cascade into ice, which takes a lot out of him. He crashes down to the ground, his wings barely holding. Harribel comes saying he made a sacrifice but then cold air comes, his wings reform, black clouds roll in, and Hitsugaya says the heavens are under his control. Hyoten Hyakkaso!! TO BE CONTINUED...

Thoughts:

Great episode, I love Hitsugaya and it was nice seeing him fight with the majority of his abilities. Harribel is great fun to watch to, I like her character. I can't wait till next week, whilst I did read it, I really would love to see it.

Bleach - 273 - Fury of the Shark! Halibel Releases - Review/Summary

Summary:

Very early in the show Yammy releases, showing that he's number 0, the strongest espada. He turns into this weird giant humntipede (human/centipede). He's extremely resilient in this form. He's the only espada that can increase his reiatsu by simply sleeping and eating, which is a little weird. We then go back to Karakura town where Soi Fon and Hitsugaya are having some trouble fighting. Harribel unzips her top to show she is number three. She begins attack Hitsugaya. She releases and attacks him cutting him in half, but really it's just an ice clone.

There is a small comedy moment when Soi Fon and Omaeda are against Baraggan. Omaeda goes on about how they need to release their true strength because when in the real world their reiatsu is cut; however, we find out that the restriction was never placed. The episode ends with Hitsugaya telling Harribel to not under estimate them.

Thoughts:

Well, I already read this. I wasn't really looking forward to reading this. I only really cared about Ichigo going full hollow. It's not bad though, just was pretty boring to me. Not much progression was made at all, I hope they don't start fillers soon.
