How Bleach Broke the Villain Redemption Trope
Aizen, Madara, Doflamingo, Hisoka. I could go on for days about the countless iconic villains featured in shonen anime, but when it comes to the cool factor, Bleach's Aizen has everyone beat by a country mile. What is it about Aizen that makes him so compelling to everyone, to the point where when someone mentions anime and villain in the same sentence, most people think of Aizen? Naruto, One Piece, Hunter x Hunter, and Jujutsu Kaisen have GREAT villains, but why does Aizen's name carry so much weight? In this video, I explore the magic behind Aizen and how him shifting from main villain to antagonistic force lurking in the background was a genius decision by Kubo, as it allowed Aizen to maintain his terrifying presence while also helping the main characters achieve their goals when he's absolutely needed to. It speaks volumes about how well Bleach is written for such a villain to exist in it, even when he isn't the main big bad in the TYBW arc.

The Art of Tonal Whiplash in Anime
มุมมอง 9K14 วันที่ผ่านมา
Anime like Chainsaw Man, Gintama, Madoka Magica, and now Dandadan are known for how they're able to switch moods and tone at the drop of a dime no matter any situation.They keep watchers on the edge of their seat, ready to have their emotions toyed with at any given moment. Although tonal whiplash is present in all sorts of anime, I was truly reminded of how powerful of a tool it is when watchi...
Revisiting Parasyte 10 Years Later

When I first started watching Parasyte, I wasn't expecting to leave it with a profound message in mind that made me question the meaning of being human. Parasyte's an anime that's been discussed in the anime community for well over a decade now and that's for good reason. Despite coming out in 2014, Parasyte still looks fantastic thanks to the courtesy of Madhouse and the subjects it touches on...

As My Hero Academia and Jujutsu Kaisen come to a conclusion, Weekly Shonen Jump finds themselves in quite the sticky situation.

Demon Slayer is Suffering From Success.
มุมมอง 52K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
Demon Slayer, the biggest shonen anime in Japan from the past 10 years, has been slowly, but surely progressing its story through multiple seasons. In an effort to stretch Demon Slayer out, a lot of padding has been added to various arcs to increase run time. Demon Slayer Season 3, which revolved around the Swordsmith Village, was notorious for doing this. When I heard Demon Slayer Season 4 was...

Ranger Reject is The Boys, but with Power Rangers

Ranger Reject is a manga that I've kept my eye on for quite a while since it's written by one of my favorite mangaka, Negi Haruba. Yes, THAT Negi Haruba, the one behind Quintessential Quintuplets.

Although Ranger Reject isn't identical to The Boys and obviously takes place in a diff...
How Wind Breaker Perfected The Strongest

Wind Breaker is a delinquent anime and manga I've been looking forward to as a Tokyo Revengers fan.

Kaiju No. 8 is Wonderfully Stuck in the Past
มุมมอง 1.3K7 หลายเดือนก่อน
Kaiju No. 8 is pretty great and it's partly because of that good old shonen feel it retains while somehow feeling modern at the same time. Normally something like this would be a negative for a modern shonen anime, but Kaiju No. 8 has somehow turned it into a strength. Really, really fun show.

The God of Manga's Mysterious Masterpiece is Must Watch Anime.
Aizen truly kept me guessing on what he was going to do when he was reintroduced in the final arc. Little did I know he was going to do absolutely nothing besides distracting yhwach in one fight! Incredible job, Kubo, my expectations were subverted
Just wait until Aizen trains Kazui.
It broke nothing lol. Ywach basically freed him and he still willingly let then recapture him and put him in muken. Clearly a redemption
Dandadan has entered the chat:
I don't know why but I always cheered for Azien and Thanos. Villains are just more interesting. Winners speak not of the world is it is, but as it should be.
Please have anime original to show Aizen's bankai, please
And none of them have a decent level, jjk is so hyped and so mid
from what i heard kubo has been mentioning a name when talking about the forth season that got everyone hyped. since the anime added a lot of things in the manga since it was rushed i wonder will we hear aizen saying bankai?
by TYBW i dont see aizen as a villian. am i crazy for that?
my hero is garbage and jujitsu kaisen is even worse.
So your saying is we need the hell arc
Dub aizen did such a good talking about ichigo beating him to the royal realm he sounded so pissed
Aizen is an unknown, he just wants to overthrow anyone above him like the soul king but even though he lost to ichigo, Aizen remained true to his character and even now we don't know his motivation, his origin story, his bankai.. He's an eternal cool villain that doesn't change his course no matter what
Dandadan
The things i was surprised to realize after watching about the relationships were well thought out: For example that *Rudy and Roxy are about the same age mentally, her being around 44 in S2 about 10 years after they parted ways at his age of 5, which mentally lines up as a 44 year old in a relationship with a 5+10+34 approximately 49 year old who suffered from mentally failing to mature in his past life, Roxy doing the same due to her developmental disability(lacking telepathy and being hurt by it) and her races slower growth rate keeps them both at around the same level.
Most series: Villain becomes good, then died immediately after. (because God forbid you actually get to enjoy seeing their redemption arch in fruition.) Bleach: Villain remains villain, can't be killed off due to immortality, and got stronger while incapable of moving, and having all their senses restrained.
exept demon slayer all new gen shonen jump manga have disapointing endings

ALS players who watch black clover .Anyone relies that comrades star looks like avatar
you actually pronounced it correctly his name is a jewish word so its gonna sound a little funny no matter how they say it but for english the way you said it is correct
I think one piece did this quite a while ago with crocodile.
This is the first time I've seen anyone talk about how brilliantly well done Norn was as a character. You took the thoughts right out of my mind.
Am glad people have recognized Japanese music. Have amazing artists, makes want to learn the culture and language more.
As you get older Aizen only becomes more relatable. He simply opposes those which aim to control him. Literally anyone can relate to this; esp as you get older and realize everything comes down to control
Super bummed that “Call of the Night” isn’t on Crunchyroll
LOTS of jersey club in the last two anime openings. Totally with a unique spin but the bed creek sound is like the center piece of NJclub and the Otake drum loop
PAAAAAUUUUL
zombie toshiro. bad boys. it makes sense. it is what it is…
They’re screwed when OP ends, since Togashi’s back is already too bad to carry the magazine on it 😂
Aizen just wants u to think that he is not the main antagonist :D
Bleach super fans. Y'all should staph this! 😂😂😂 If Aizen was so smart. He should have shown Ichigo his shikai. And why does the bad guy not use his most powerful skill? His bankai? He let them catch him and seal him... Because it was all part of his plan! (so stupid) And can't Ywach see the future? Couldn't he tell that Aizen was going to refuse him? That's a trip that shouldn't have been made. But he just gotta go through the process. 😂😂😂😂
Nga you must be slow, yhwach didn’t have the almighty until ichibe erased him with his bankai.
What about Frieza?
This is my Umemiya is the best and my favorite
Aizen can even activate a kido while he's talking . Dayum son .
Thanks for the spoiler warning!!
Manga writers don’t know when to kill characters in general
Its like he is the MC or something!😂😂😂😂
Without missing a BEAT GINTAMA was innmy head beforeni finished reading the title. Four devas for me isnmy no.1 gintama arc. And joiricho vs gintoki is WITHOUT A DOUBT top 5 fights in all of gintama
blue lock?
The only sad part about this is that he, like many other villains, ends up defeated by the next stronger villain ultimately. It would've been cooler if he managed to defeat Yhwach alongside Ichigo like Frieza did with Goku against Jiren. Speaking of it, there's also Frieza that helps the main cast at one point but never becomes good.
Bleach has "antagonists" not villains they are likely just stop fighting because they aren't killed but they are still their own personality and you can't change that you are only teamed up with him because you have the same goal or that their goal needs your goal to be finished and half the time they know that they will just go to hell arc and aizen would have 2 plans to have a backup plan in case he wins or loses and he would lose and you know that aizen will just have the main villain to die because its is own turf
Villain redemption trope is one of the WORST tropes when it’s done wrong… it isn’t like other overused tropes which are usually just annoying. Sometimes it just makes the story ass, for example MHA
Shinigami do genocide and kill deku friends.deku thinks he can still save him
@@Jedifox2010 To Deku's credit, not like he completely overrules the idea, but he wants to help first and foremost, even though at some point, your crimes rack up a bit too much to ever believe society would even allow someone a chance to change, ala that climaz.
Broke it by doing nothing with aizen
just realized that the only big main bad that died at ichigo's hands was Kugo Ginjo.
That guy is still doing well in Soul Society.
@@salmannazeer2688 what really?
@@meswil The fullbringers that died in that arc are all now in Rukongai. They were humans and they got killed by soul reapers so they went to Soul Society after death. They were actually shown hanging out with the Shiba clansmen in TYBW anime
You learn about it in TYBW
i don't know about that coz byakuya and grimjaw were villains at some point but they came to help out help out and some of the espadas and source wasn't there aleast in my eyes.
Byakuya was antagonistic. Not a villain. He didn't commit anything that could be considered villainy.
@@salmannazeer2688he tried to murder a 15 year old In the street he was pretty questionable
Grimmjow wasn’t really a main villain, he was more being used by Aizen
It is a popular trope of long series when in order to defeat a greater evil a previous villain helps main characters.
Honestly Kenpachi is one of the nicest captains around man, he does not deserve to be called that crazy. He actively chooses to spare people and try make them change in his own way and outside of battle he's kinda level headed since he just doesn't care about much else. It's why he was one of the only ones to help Ichigo and co in soul society. Sure he did it for a good fight, but he was the only one to not be wrapped up in weird squad squabbles and politics in the gotei. Meanwhile Soi-Fon is unhinged. She was way too trigger happy to kill people.
Zaraki feels like a second main character. We see him becoming stronger both in terms of power and mentally.
Zaraki doesn't actively chose to spare people. He choses not to finish them off once they're down. There's a difference between the two. If you're too weak then you'll get killed. If you're lucky enough to survive a strike despite being defeated then he won't finish you off. He won't help you either. He'll leave you there to bleed out unless someone else comes to help. Also we've seen the literal mountain of corpses that Zaraki cut down back then as a child.
Soi-Fon was literally raised to serve as a killing tool subordinate to the Shihoin. And the Shihoin were incharge of an organisation that either killed off or imprisoned anyone they deemed "dangerous" to the safety of Seireitei. Soi-Fon is trigger happy to kill people because killing people is her job description. She's not trained to kill hollows. She's trained to kill people.
Can you blame Soi Fon when she hardly has any good things happening during her early life all the way until she became a captain? Heck, she was outright taught to kill.
@@Honest_Mids_Masher Soi fon is the leader of an organisation whose objective is to assassinate or capture people who might threaten soul society. Her job isn't to fight hollows. Her job is to literally kill people. She was raised from childhood to be a part of that organisation as well.

I like aizen because he didn't change after 5 minutes talk like naruto villains
Or the idea that just because a group of people have excused your actions or defeated you means you are obligated to completely change your ways.
Aizen himself spent most of his time yapping, only for Ichigo to counter his talk no jutsu with a face palm hand sign.
Because he doesnt have a background, they have nothing to talk about to use on him. No family, no childhood friends, no nakama.
