User blog comment:TVthePunisher/Bleach Episode 287...start of a new filler arc?/@comment-117598-20100818161446

Part of each filler were good, and i like some of the characters that were introduced. To be honest, I liked Amagai and would've liked for him to be a full-time captain added to the manga. I even liked Maki Ichinose. Though I do agree that overall, the Bount Arc didn't keep me interested. The Zanpaktou Arc had decent moments. Interesting to see personifications of each spirit. Not to mention, Koga vs Byakuya was a pretty badass fight. Also, helped shed a little more light on Byakuya and his sense of pride and duty. I didn't like how they always left Kenpachi out, so his sword's spirit could never be revealed. But I understand that if they were going to reveal it's name or even give it a form, TK would want to do it in the manga first.
