Bleach Review: The Betrayer

"It's finally my time to shine"

Ichigo and Yoruichi continue to battle Yhwach who still continues to mess with Ichigo's mind and Uryu then decides to step in.

Finally we got some really fast paced action with some proper fighting between the characters. Yhwach still tries to mess with Ichigo by talking about his Quincy blood and has been controlling his actions however I didn't really like it because Aizen and Ginjo already tried a similar trick before. Sure it's different with Yhwach because we have already seen he has some control over Ichgio actions but we have still already been through this before. I did though like the jab Yhwach made at Ichigo's mother which I thought was about time because I have been waiting for Ichigo to mention that Yhwach killed her. We also got to see an Elite Sternritter in action again, Pernida Parkgjas The Compulsory, who takes Yoruichi out of the fight for now in a pretty gruesome way. Finally we get the arrival of Uryu (about freaking time!) who still seems to be siding with Yhwach for now and it looks like there might be a fight between him and Ichigo next chapter. All in all there isn't much to say about this chapter because it doesn't feel like a lot has happened, I am of course still disappointed that Chad and Ganju just seem to be standing around doing nothing and the way Mimihagi was ripped off makes me think that it's part is already over after there was so much hype about it.



Doesn't that hurt her at all?

Overall a good chapter that might have set up a fight between Uryu and Ichigo next chapter and with Uryu's and Pernida's arrival this will mean the other Elite Sternritter will fight as well. 

SCORE: 7/10

Highlights: Ichigio vs. Yhwach
                   Uryu and Pernida finally step in
                   Pernida's brutal attack on Yoruichi

Let - Downs: Really, Ichigo has been controlled by another main villain
                      Why isn't the rest of Ichigo's group helping out?
                       Mimihagi finished already?
