Renji trying to eat those leftovers from Urahara and his group made me laugh so hard. He looks so ridiculous in that school uniform and has no idea how to act normal

Kariya seems like a decent villain for a filler character and his introduction during that night scene was actually pretty cool and eerie

This episode is such a jarring shift after everything that happened with the Soul Society. Renji showing up at Ichigo's school is funny and the interactions work well, but finding out there are like forty more episodes of this filler before the actual plot continues is really discouraging. It might be worth sticking it out for the mod souls though.

I laughed so hard when Ichigo tried to act normal at school while Renji was lurking around the campus because the human world comedy is great

Those three weird dolls that appeared at the end of the episode have such strange designs and they really make the tone feel different than the serious fights we just had

Seeing everyone back in their school uniforms is nostalgic, but the rumor is that this Bount stuff is a total slog and Renji's jokes can only carry it so far.

Why did they have to start a filler arc right after Aizen escaped because the pacing is going to be a nightmare for the next forty episodes and it feels like a mistake

The new mod souls like Ririn are kind of cute and they give the group a fun dynamic even if the story is not canon

It feels so weird to go from the hype of the Soul Society ending to this random school life stuff and I honestly might just skip to the Arrancar arc soon

Renji showing up at the school gate in that ridiculous outfit was hilarious but knowing a huge filler arc is starting now makes it tempting to stop watching

I thought Renji struggling with his gigai in the middle of school was funny and it was the only thing that kept me from skipping this whole new arc

The school setting felt nostalgic for a second but then the ending with Orihime disappearing out of nowhere made the whole episode feel like a setup for a story that does not even matter

Renji trying to act all cool while being a total bum at Urahara's place is exactly the kind of comedy the show needed after all that drama, but the story is slow

Yoruichi sensing that unnatural spirit pressure was a good way to start the mystery but the fact that this is all filler makes it hard to care about new villains

I really wanted to keep going with the main story but everyone on Reddit says this Bount arc is the worst thing ever and it goes on for like forty episodes and even though I liked Renji getting bullied by Ichigo for his terrible fashion sense I might just skip ahead to the Arrancar stuff because this already feels like it is going to be a slog

Uryu still not having his powers back makes the stakes feel weirdly low and the whole soul sucking Bount concept just sounds like a cheap knockoff of the hollows

That dream Orihime had about her brother was actually pretty creepy and it sucks that she went missing right at the end because now the plot is starting already

Seeing Renji just freeloading at the shop while Ichigo looked totally embarrassed by those ridiculous clothes made me laugh out loud and I loved that comedy segment

The tone shift from the intense battles in the Seireitei to this weird mystery with Orihime and her brother is kind of jarring, especially since the community says this arc is boring

Renji showing up in that 70s looking hippie outfit was hilarious because he has no idea how people actually dress in the real world anymore and he looks like a total weirdo

EPISODE CONTEXT

Episode 64 lands immediately after the Soul Society arc wraps in Episode 63, making it a transitional filler episode that bridges the gap before the Bount arc begins. It regrounds the cast in Karakura Town and reestablishes the status quo of daily life while quietly seeding new supernatural developments. Skippable for viewers focused strictly on canon material, but it provides useful character moments — particularly for Renji's integration into the human world cast.
