The change from being a weekly show to a more highly-produced seasonal show seems to have really paid off for them.

The extra time spent really shines in the animation. These episodes are just fun to watch no matter what’s happening on screen. There’s a lot of subtle details and nuance to the way things are done that simply didn’t exist in the older stuff, arguably even the movies. For the first time in a long time I’m rewatching episodes multiple times because I’ve missed things while reading subtitles or something.

I don’t want to over sell it, they haven’t reinvented the wheel or something, but for this series it’s gold IMO.

I’m not surprised to see Bleach TYBW hanging around the top of the list. (Full disclosure this is the first time I’ve seen the list lol)

It may not be for everyone but it was enough to get me interested in the series again after not really following it for a while. I’ve been excitedly waiting for the new episodes to release each week and I’m already bracing for the letdown when it’s gone.

Don’t miss this one.

I don’t believe I’m spoiling anything by saying it’s a solid episode even if it doesn’t reach the peak of some of the recent releases. I wanted more, but I always do.
