Bleach TYBW Episode 6 Recap
The previous episode was titled “The Fire,” and we witnessed the battle between Yamamoto and Yawach after the former defeats Äs Nödt and several other enemies. They are battling again after a thousand years, making their fight even more interesting, and this time, Yamamoto is dedicated to ending the battle once and for all.
While they both are battling, the flames surrounding Soul Society disappear, and it comes to everyone’s notice. Yamamoto releases his Bankai and maneuvers his other great moves, dominating Yawach. He also unleashes an explosion attack. To counter his attack, Yawach uses arrows, and in the meantime, Yamamoto awakes the ones he killed before to attack Yawach. Yamamoto seems quite confident and says that he is yet to show his full potential, and finally, he cuts Yawach in half.
But it turns out that Yawach, which Yamamoto was fighting, was actually Sternritter Royd Lloyd, and moments later, the real Yawach arrives and reveals that he had gone to the underground prison to meet Aizen and recruit him in his army, although he failed. At the end of the episode, Yawach steals his Bankai and cuts his shoulder.
