No word yet on whether or not Japan will be getting Hardened or Prestige editions as well....

Bleach Thousand Year Blood War Episode 9 Review The Drop

Episode 9 of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, “The Drop” is a lesson in dichotomy. Divided in tone as well as location, the story contrasts a wholesome spa experience with an unexpected, embittered life-and-death struggle that apparently has been a long time coming. It’s a shocking juxtaposition whose primary purpose seems to be both relieving and increasing tension, dropping hints and revelations as well as flecks of blood. Partially set in the firmament of the Soul King’s palace, and then in the lowest bowels of the Soul Society, the episode is a smash cut of contrasting pressures that are sure to burst forth in the next episode....

It’s a fantastic introduction to her eccentric pleasures.
