    My favorite bit of foreshadowing is the first time we see ichigos bed it has the original quicy cross on it
    But none of us noticed til the final arc 😂

      i agree with the bed sheet, altough my favorite is when kisuke tells rukia about quincy and i quote" quincy were humans with the ability to see and sense hollow, like ichigo can.
      soul society's when ichigo reiatsu took form of whites mask, while fighting kenny.

    I think that Yhwach to some extent is also a victim of his circumstances.
    When Yhwach was born he was completely motionless. He was born with the ability to split his soul. Everyone who received a portion of Yhwach’s soul was said to feel whole again. Upon their death, the piece of his soul with the person’s knowledge, powers and feelings returned to him.
    Ever since his birth Yhwach is forced to feel the deaths of all the souls that return to him.
    All Yhwach seems to feel is sadness and sorrow. He’s incapable or ignorant of people who find peace or a happy life without his influence.
    So he came to the deranged conclusion that if he’d remove the concept of death invented by the soul reapers. He’d be finally at peace. In other words it would be quiet because people don’t die anymore. With all the powers he built up throughout the centuries, why wouldn’t he turn the world upside down.
    This why I always saw Yhwach as a consequence of the origin sin. A inevitable for of nature. Like out sun that will eventually burn out, swallow Merkur and Venus and turn our planet earth into a piece of coal. That’s the fate of all stars.
    Even if Ichigo and Aizen never set one foot into the seireitei. The Quincies would have wreaked the place one way or another.

    Take note of the theme that doing good leads to misfortune while upholding the status quo has similar bloody results. The Spirit King was protecting humans while the 5 who would become the noble family's founders decided to enact there own goals in paranoia except for the Shiba. Same in the end of CFYOW with Yoruichi's old assassin side showing itself, we are reminded that she and Kisuke were once killers who have ended scores of lives to uphold the status quo.

    Great video, but I'm surprised you didn't mention the volume poems. Not only are they a cool addition and help highlight characters, some of them help understand the series better.
    For example, I think the poems from Volumes 5 and 8 foreshadows Ichigo's character arc for most of the series. Both conflate power with blades. Vol. 5's shows Ichigo's desire to protect others and his fear of his hollow throughout the story. Vol. 8's poem hints at the Vasto Lorde transformation, since Ichigo couldn't control his hollow so he had to fight Zangetsu later, and his pride was damaged by beating Ulquiorra that way, so he subsequently had trouble hollowfying. I think Volume 25's poem takes the cake, as it feels like it explains the series' themes best.
    "We are all
    Born dead.
    The end exists
    Before anything begins.
    If living
    Is a constant quest for awareness,
    The awareness we gain at the end
    is the real goal.
    In other words, death
    Is the discovery
    and complete understanding
    Of the end.
    We are not permitted to seek awareness.
    Those that cannot transcend death
    Will not find awareness in anything."
    The first stanza clearly illustrates the cycle of life and death Soul Reapers uphold. The second and third stanza conflate death and enlightenment, which makes sense, since the end of a person's life would likely be a moment of perfect clarity and reflection. But, also consider the fact that the Soul King, the God of the series, *is literally a corpse.* The final stanza sets it in stone by saying that by not transcending death, or rather, not accepting the inevitability of death, you won't be aware of anything; showing how Yhwach wanted to eliminate death but didn't realize that an endless existence wouldn't be as meaningful as a finite one, as Aizen explained in the final chapter.
    Anyways, I've gone on too long, once again great video.

    Deep lore regarding 6:15 - when the chapter came out in the magazine, the line in Japanese was "a Shinigami and a-", which is the screencap used in this video and definitely hints at a reveal about Masaki. In the volumes, this was changed to "a human and a-", which makes it feel like he was just going to reveal Isshin's true identity. My guess is that Kubo regretted dropping such a large hint and decided to cover it up under the pretense of it being bad wording before the fans cracked the secret years before the proper payoff.
    Similarly, many fans immediately called that there was a connection between Zangetsu and Yhwach due to their designs, which is why Kubo doesn't bring it up until it's time for the reveal and then writes it as Ichigo being in denial about the similarity instead of being blindsided. Normal foreshadowing would have made it too clear. It's the kind of thing that can feel weird outside of the serialization.

    I enjoy your approach and highlighting the fact that people don’t talk as much specifically about how well woven the foreshadowing of bleach is narratively and why it serves the story well.
    Personally I also enjoyed the part where you mentioned why Urahara made mod souls and with the logic of the bleach universe it makes logical sense to make an artificial substitute soul and infuse them with the hogyoku to replace the soul king.
    If you think about it, even though Kona’s fears are out paced now think about how strong mod souls are. They have very powerful bodily motor skills and increase the durability of any body they’re used on, which would be valuable traits for a body being strong enough to withstand housing the hogyoku without being torn apart. Maybe even the intended lack of emotion and being made for general subservience would be a perfect vessel for the hogyoku because they wouldn’t feel fear or other emotions the Hogyoku might reject.
    Another example of perhaps similar technology that lends further credence to the potential for how much stronger artificial souls could be would be Nemu who was created by mayuri. Nemu is depicted as very powerful through soul society, hueco Mindi and TYBW to the point she’s basically lieutenant level. Imagine if she or a captain level hypothetical artificial soul had the hogyoku.
    A strong Gigai, Mod Soul, and the Hogyoku is a pretty astute hypothesis for replacing the soul king and it’s just another reason why Urahara is that guy.

    9:03 *Over 1 million years ago, as that's the age of the seperation.
    Also, Yhwach is relatively young, as far as most of the older characters go. He's around 2,000+ years old, exacts aren't known, but he was definitely far younger than Yamamoto in that time period. Yamamoto created the Shinigami/Soul Reaper Academy 2,100 years before the start of the series. By then, he was already appearing as a middle-aged man, which implies he was perhaps multiple millenia old by this time. I've seen it estimated to be 6,000-ish years at the maximum, but it's all up to just guessing. Anyways, Yhwach is way too young to ever have relation to the events of 'The First Sin' itself, moreso just wanting to free his father from imprisonment _long_ after it happened.
    8:05 *The connection here isn't to Aizen, it's to himself. Just like how Komamura's words to Tosen became reality for him, the same applies here. When Nemu's body is destroyed by Pernida, Mayuri for the first time in the series falls into shock and despair, at the loss of his creation. 'Szayelapporo' (aka, his conscious) comes to chastize him for this, mocking him for believing deep down that Nemu was a perfect being, because he created her. He even throws Mayuri's own words back in his face.

    I think Urahara knew that the balance of the world needed the soul long as a keystone, same as ichibe. If that was lost, then the world was likely to collapse. Even if he didn’t know exactly what would happen, I think he figured the risk was too great. Thats why he looked into a way to disrupt the balance but decided to stop going that direction.

    at first i was gonna ask "if Ichibei sealed his name in the past, how... or rather: when, did he get his name back?" but i think we know the answer. 9 years ago from start of series. although this would seem to suggest his name should've been audible to Ichigo, perhaps since OMZ is only a piece of Yuhabaha, he couldn't regain his name. he's not as powerful as the original, so he couldn't regain his name unlike the original.
    this makes a lot more sense than Ichibei erasing it in the future, somehow effecting himself in the past.
    6:41 there are different translations of this scene. i've seen "human and..." & "shinigami and...". iirc, the anime chose "human and...". this makes more sense to me. up to this point, he didn't know much about his parents. he didn't know where his latent Shinigami powers came from. and i doubt Aizen would've wanted to let him in on the secret of his mother. so when his father shows up revealing himself to be a Shinigami, it confirms that his mother was indeed human.
