‘The Half-Blood Prince,’ Bleach Season 17 Episode 8! Is the release date changing?

Bleach TYBW Episode 7 kept fans in suspense last week. Yamamoto’s blood began to thin as Yhwach slashed his body and stepped on his skull in the pouring rain. Yamamoto’s lower body stayed standing, with his top half on the ground, which is almost poetic. Yhwach, on the other hand, was fixated on the sliced half beneath him. It will be intriguing to observe how he connects the distant past with the present. Is there any resemblance between the two that fans should be aware of? The solutions are contained in Bleach Season 17 Episode 8!

However, it appears like the release date will be pushed back. Don’t be concerned. We have all the latest information about Bleach TYBW Episode 8 Release Date and Plot. Fortunately, the studio is making amends. Both ep 8 and 9 will be dropped at the same time. As a result, the future ones will not be affected by the domino effect. On the other hand, perhaps the break is beneficial to Ichigo. He has to reconcile with his history. This respite, hopefully, will serve as a form of rehabilitation for him. He doesn’t have much time to rest, though! Soul Society is in disarray. And Ichigo must prepare for the next battle. Continue reading to learn more!

What Happens Next in Bleach Season 17 Episode 8?

‘The Shooting Star Project- Zero Mix’ is the title of Bleach Season 17 Ep 8. The next ep will cope with the battle’s aftermath. Chapters 511-514 of the manga were covered in Episode 7. As a result, Episode 8 will most likely begin with Chapter 515. The following episode will focus on the arrival of Squad Zero. Their main goal is to safeguard the Soul Society and its King. The Soul Reapers will regroup and repair their fighting wounds after Quincy’s retreat.

In the meantime, Ichigo has concluded that his present numbers are insufficient to safeguard Soul Society. Byakuya has entrusted him with the protection of his fellow Soul Reapers. Ichigo will have to work harder in the gym. Perhaps this is the time for him to use his dormant Quincy abilities. Ichigo is currently in denial mode. Quincy was always his adversary in his eyes. He is ripped apart after discovering he shares their blood. Will Ichigo recognize his true identity? The following one will include all of the answers! Although Episode 8 will not be as action-packed as the previous one, it will compensate with storyboarding, emotional weight, and profound character moments.

A Quick Review!

‘Born In The Dark’ was the title of Bleach Season 17 Episode 7. The scene began with a sight of the first fight between Soul Society and Quincy. It was the start of a thousand-year bloodbath. And it was Sasakibe who murdered Yhwach. The plot then resumed with Episode 6’s conflict. Yamamoto was slashed in half by Yhwach. The rain seemed to slow down and the sound faded every now and again. This technique created an almost calm moment in time. Nonetheless, it displayed a horrifyingly dismal scene.

Yhwach then directed his Quincy foot soldiers to slay all remaining Soul Reapers. Meanwhile, Ichigo has finally escaped from prison. He instantly ran into Byakuya, who was on the verge of death. Rukia and Renji were still alive, according to Ichigo. Byakuya, unable to breathe any longer, uttered his farewell words to Ichigo. The blade eventually fell from his grasp and disappeared. Ichigo, enraged, dashed away and eventually confronted Yhwach to square off. Unfortunately, all of the odds were stacked against him. In the struggle, Yhwach had the upper hand.

He swooped down on Ichigo and stabbed him in the throat. Ichigo, on the other hand, managed to survive this clean attack. Yhwach decided to lay down his blade. He discovered Ichigo was employing the Quincy technique, Blood Vein. He reasoned that Ichigo might have managed to reawaken his spiritual memories while incarcerated. Yhwach was taken aback when he saw this. He decided to withdraw for the time being and told Ichigo they would meet shortly. The episode concluded with Ichigo referring to him as his son, born in the dark.
