I'm a Naruto fan, but I've never seen an episode so beautifully animated. I can't get this episode out of my head since yesterday I had chills the whole time and when Rukia finally said « Bankai, Hakka no Togame » I shed a tear. And I'm not even exaggerating it was THAT beautiful. The OSTs, pacing, animation, moments everything was good. And this feeling of relief when Byakuya admit that Rukia is strong, I felt so proud for her. Their relationship is everything. As Nodt, he was perfect, I felt so bad for him at the end of the episode when at the beginning I was just waiting for him to get his ass beat lol.
