Best characters are ones with good dialogue or are interesting. Ichigo has good dialogue with people sometimes, especially when Bleach started. BazzB has been pretty good, spouting off dumb one-liners and basically not giving many shits. Renji is fun sometimes. Ikkaku's friend is generally pretty good. Ichigo's gang had fun conversations before, and the last chapter with him was pretty good for that. Kenpachi is just really fun to see because of how much ass he kicks.

Bleach has good characters when Kubo allows them to have retarded dialogue while the plot happens in the background.

I have really been enjoying Bleach the last few weeks (aside from a couple chapters). Kubo has always had some great character interactions, and freaky science dude makes for some good stuff. It makes me sad knowing that once we get back to actual story progression its going to be slow and boring and Ichigo will probably be stupid

So I guess Itachi made a brief trip to Soul Society to give Mayuri drug-enhancing effect with the Izanami and give it a test experiment to Hitsugiya.

So... yeah, I fail to understand why a >>>Mind-controlled Zombie<<< Hitsugaya would care about ending up trapped in an endless loop inside his head.

I'm pretty sure its because he/she zombie thing is controlling hitsugaya and forcing him to fight/kill Mayuri. Its not that he CARES, its that he has no other choice (because he's under mind control) but to fight and kill Mayuri. And when that happens Mayuri loops him back to before he did it.

I think it was more about Mayuri essentially incapacitating Hitsugaya moreso than Hitsugaya giving a fuck about his current situation. Mayuri can do whatever the fuck he wants now

Ok, so that was cool. Basically, Hitsugaya got hit with the Izanami, then they coupled it with more of Kurotsuchi's maniacal monologues. I approve.

And I loved that part about exactly when the drug was administered - "you'll find your answer, in the past", I wish Bleach had always been like that, shit. Then the Fullbring arc wouldn't have been a slow-moving train-wreck.

I think part of the charm is that only one character can do this shit. Also pretty much anything would have made the Fullbring arc better. That shit was filler tier

That's my point, he's being mind controlled so he doesn't have a reason to give a fuck about being trapped in a loop as long as he kills Mayuri as he is commanded. Even if Hitsugaya ends up trapped in 'the loop', that won't change the fact that Mayuri is dead, because he's not manipulating time but altering Hitsugaya's perception of it...

I guess it was all a silly plot device to make us wow about Mayuri's drugs since "Lol I just injected you something <drop to the floor>" was not impressive enough, in a "Look at that, it's the opposite of the move he used against whatshisnamearrancardude Szayel Apollo" kind of way...

i think you missed the aprt of the drug also slowly destroying his sense of balance, so sure he doesnt care hes ina loop but he does care that he cant stand up anymore

That's what makes Kurotsuchi a good fit for the Gotei 13 (in the narrative sense). He is the exception to the flashy fighting styles of his fellow captains. Like any good tactician, he elects to win fights through using cheap shit instead of merely reacting to his circumstances.

The sword sensor was pretty dumb, but I'm always a sucker for people getting stuck in time loops. Also maniacal rants.

Latest chapters have been better than those of Naruto, I'll concede, but I still have no idea what's going on in Bleach, like why are there all these zombies to begin with, hell, why are there all these quincy to begin with, nothing has made any sense for a very long time, and even though Naruto's ending looks like it might be disappointing, at least I know what the hell's going on there lol. They each are having their problems right now.

Its not about "giving a fuck" its a matter of he can't do anything. I think the part you missed (or I misunderstood) is he can't kill Mayuri because just before he does he gets warped back to the point where he asks Hitsu to take the drugs. He's a mindless Zombie and his only objective is to kill Mayuri. He is incapable of performing his only objective.

Think about it like the stereotypical "give a paradox to a robot" thing that happens in TV shows all the time. He's just trapped in a paradox.

Now Hitsugaya is out of commission, and conveniently in a way that keeps him alive, while Mayuri is free to continue doing what he pleases. It just so happens that what he pleases is more fucking with Hitsugaya because he feels like the little prick has it coming. Or he's just insane. Or both. Eventually (hopefully) Mayuri will move on to zombie thing and will kill it so that hitsugaya comes back and no more, more dangerous Captains get turned

I think the drug is supposed to keep Hitsugaya in a loop until he comes to a "self realisation" and subsequently dispels the zombie curse... Mayuri is basically giving Hitsugayas brain time to kick back into gear and re-take control by slowly awakening his ability for reason and think critically.
I really wanted a bigger opponent, like Nate Marquardt, or King Neptune, or Zeus, or Zeus and Fedor, or Fedor on Zeus's shoulders, and they can both punch but only Zeus can kick.

So basically Hitsugaya is a faulty electronic and Mayuri just held down the reset button.

no the drug is literally eating away at his brain destroying his sense of balance so Mayuri can easily finish him off
