User blog:Lemursrule/BLEACH 345 Review: Welcome to Xcution

Sorry about the lateness again, Lemurs has been super busy. It kinda worked out though, since for who knows what reason, Jump is late this week, there is atleast something I can comment on. With that said, let's begin!

I am really liking what Pierrot is doing right now, it is clear that there is a real effort in trying to make the lost agent arc the best it can be. The one thing I don't understand is why everyone is complaning about the animation, I thought it looked fine. I actually think the animation has a little more personally now, especially in come up with more intresting action poses. I guess people's tastes differ, but I thought the overall animation was good. I like how the writing team is creating more of a mystery, which I think will really pay off in the end. Pierrot is doing what I hoped they would do, and I really hope they keep up with this. I am a little iffy on Riruka, in my mind I found her voice to be more mocking and more sarcastic, but I am really not feeling that from her. Maybe I am being too judgmental, but I am still not feeling the "Riruka Vibe" from Megumi Toyoguchi's performance. I am also a little surprised about Giriko voice, its not what I expected. It's not bad, it's just a little different then what I had imagined. Daisuke Ono is a great Tsukishima, enough said.

Overall good episode.
