With a few episodes under its belt, the third part of the anime series is the one that has reached the top floor, giving anime fans some amazing moments. Unfortunately, one of the biggest problems with Studio Pierrot’s latest project is one that could be fixed quite easily. The post-credits scenes of the Bloody Thousand Year War present a major problem, especially for those who don’t stick around past the credits.

Post-credits scenes have been a part of the anime world for quite some time. Usually, these scenes will give fans an idea of ​​what is happening in the anime they are watching. Show as Demon Slayer, My Hero Academiaand many others include scenes that come after the ending theme. Of course, post-credits scenes in the world of entertainment may have been made more notable with the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The post-credits scene problem

Bleach the current post-credits scenes are absolutely essential to learning what’s happening in the story and what’s going on. For example, in the latest episode we see Yhwach do the unthinkable and absorb the power of the Soul King himself into his being. On top of that, we see the Quincy leader’s terrifying new form and if you missed that scene, you’d be pretty confused if you jumped straight into the next episode, unless Pierrot does a recap in the opening moments of the next one episode.

For scenes like this, Bloody Thousand Year War would benefit from placing them before the credits start rolling and perhaps moving the post-credits scenes to focus more on a brief teaser for the sequel. Having such essential footage take place at a time when people might tune out creates an awkward situation for anime fans, potentially leaving them confused and frustrated. Ultimately, the complaint about the post-credit scene is minor, but it could cause major headaches for those who might have missed key details.

The blood war rages

When it comes to the bloody war, every event must be observed to capture the scale of what is happening in the world of Soul Society. This latest episode not only saw the continuation of the fight against Yhwach, but also the creation of new partnerships in the crosshairs. Thanks to the risky decision to free Aizen from his prison within Soul Society, while he was still stuck in a chair, the villain lent an important hand to the Shinigami. On the other hand, several members of the Sternritter feel betrayed by Yhwach’s resumption of power, meaning they are more than willing to fight against their former leader.

We’re not even halfway through the third part of Bleach resurgence of anime but manga readers know that big moments await them. Now that Yhwach has taken the Soul King’s ultimate power and added it to his own, defeating him will be a feat that will take everything Soul Society has.
