    This episode wasn't as bad as I expected it to be after hearing it is a comic relief episode beforehand. Although nothing was really that funny, everything was amusing. Unlike a lot of other people, I find comic relief necessary. It wasn't the funniest Bleach episode, but it was decent enough. The whole scenes with the dolls inventing new traps was a bit stupid, but for some reason it offered a small giggle. It got better by the second half when the dolls tried convincing Ichigo and crew that their traps were worthwhile and disguised themselves as Bounts to prove their point. Overall, not a great episode, but decent enough.
  • Boring episode with only a couple of humorous moments.

    this past week's episode of Bleach was complete filler material. there was nothing on the main storyline with the Bounts. And to make matters worse, it was not really funny at all. the only part that was mildly funny was when Hanataro got stuck in Kon's trap and ended up with a pie in his face. I think that some of this problem has to do with using Claude and Ririn, who completely stink as characters and have been quite annoying since they came in to the show. this episode was one that can be skipped and i urge you to do that. hopefully next week's will be much better and get back to the actual plot.
  • I can accept that a comic episode won\'t go anywhere, if its purpose is just to invoke a couple of laughs. The only problem is, I didn\'t laugh, and I was embarrassed at how stupid and weak the characters were made to look.

    With tools from Urahara\'s shop, the three dolls decide to set up various traps for the Bountou in case of an attack. When Ichigo is hardly impressed by any of the traps, Cloud, Ririn, and Nova hatch a plan to teach Ichigo and Rukia not to underestimate the Bountou. Cloud and Ririn dress up like the Bountou bug-things and decide to scare Ichigo and Rukia, all the while proving that their traps are effective.



    None of them notice how bad the costumes are, or that they actually hardly look like the Bountou. Frankly, they all look like idiots; running around and destroying the neighborhood because they thought the Bountou had captured Ririn and Cloud. It just wasn\'t a great episode. The excitement of the dolls in their traps was cute for a little while, but is nowhere near enough to justify an unnecessary and farfetched episode.
  • A funny filler episode where Ririn and Cloud try showing Ichigo and Rukia that the Bounto traps really do work.

    This episode was funny, though it had absolutely no real point. It was needed. You can only go so long without something to laugh at! I admit, I was somewhat ticked at first because I wanted to know more of the story. Who wouldn't? After Yoshino's death and Kariya creating all those new dolls, it felt like you couldn't end the episode right there! But afterwards, I was kind of happy that they had this episode. I was even happier once the story continued... I tend to enjoy things with no point and seeing Rukia try to kill Ririn and Cloud was really hilarious!
  • Ririn and Cloud think that Ichigo and the gang are underestimating the Bound. To prove the Bound's strength, they put on suits to get them to beleive they're dolls and that their Bound traps work. Unfortunately, they don't think it through and get attacke

    i agree..this episode was just ok..it was a good filler and it kinda gave a comedy sense to this show 2 get our minds off all the action/adventure thats been going on..it had its funny moments but it was also kind of silly..i think this episode would have been better if the 3 stuffed animals had gone into their human bodies (gigais?) and made themselves look like they were actual Bounds and given themselves real powers and things of that sort..it was pretty cool when cloud used his illusion power to make it look like they had morphed together (i actually beleived it at first)
  • Was ok, for being like a mini-filler. More for laughs after all the tense stuff that has been happening.

    For all the annoying parts Ririn and Claude put us through in the first part of the fillers, they finally get some pay back. The traps as stupid as they where, seemed funny, but wouldn't work. Even if it was just a delay trap, it still looked funny to see what lame thing they could have made.



    It was sort of odd, that, Renji, Rukia and Ichigo couldn't figure out it was Ririn and Claude in after they merged dolls. I know it is making them look like there skills are down, but now that the main battles are going to start, I think it will be good.
  • Mod Souls, cute little dolls as bounts, I like funny.

    This episode may of been filler, even inside a filler, this was entertaining in my perspective. I really love the cute little dolls, especially Ririn. And it was funny to see a rivalry between her and Kon. I have no idea what they were arguing about over that magazine in the beginning, but it must of been something funny. Then they try making traps to stop the bount, which don't impress no one. So then Ririn and Claude try to make them get serious by disguising as bount, and things go horribly wrong when they start getting owned. Then when they merged into that large creature, they really start owning with the replacement of Renji's blade with a broom, and the kidnapped sister act. Over all I found this pretty funny. I like some entertainment between fights, even if it is filler.
  • the worst episode to date

    "Abysmal"
    the storyline didnt progress at all.

    nothing merely related to the bount was shown.

    the characters were made to look like idiots.

    all the tension from the previous episode is gone.

    stupid pie-on-face \'joke\' happens =.=

    ichigo apparently has no skill anymore... he couldnt even chase after those dmn DOLLS ! wat happened to flash step ?

    rukia\'s only ability is shooting balls of spirit energy and jumping from building to building...

    renji and ichigo together cant take on 2 dolls joined at the hip...

    this was the most pathetic episode to date... NOTHING HAPPENED !

    the only thing i liked about it is tht keigo could see tht afro dude, which has some link to the current manga arc...

    at least hitsugay is coming in the next episode... hopefully it\'s not another let down... if the fillers are goin to be like this, there is no point in showing them, it just makes people angry and will kill ratings... this episode made the karakura superheroes episode look like the season finale of LOST... it\'s tht bad...

    Since the dolly gang wants to help Ichigo and his allies, they create various traps to stop their foes. Sadly, the traps are almost as bad as this episode. The key point is when Ririn and Cloud try to convince Team Ichigo by preventing to be Bounto dolls. It fails and they almost die from Rukia's attacks. To make this episode worse, they "combine" into a hidious "monster" and use their unique abilities to defeat the heroes. They fail and surrender their new suits. To be honest, this is a horrible episode due to the fact that it is a filler in a filler arc.
