For me it's the glossy color vibrants. Like look at the hair, it's not just 1 color gradient, but literally goes from dark shade to lighter shade. The haori's are even better, with the black and lighter shading really complimenting each other. It feels...detailed!
The new colors are amazing, the brightness refelcts the rebirth of the series for me. I think a fucking 9.3/10 on my arbitrary scale. Everything reflects Tite Kubo's style so much more this time around. Every slow paced scene or still taken from the manga has that iconic minimalist clean cut fucking sleekness to it that makes me nut everytime I see it. The creators have used the improvement of technology brilliantly and I'm so happy that they were able to exceed the previous art style thanks to the break.
im just like in awe that its in HD n the animation is so smooth but i wish they stuck closer to kubo's art style the whole way through. ichigo looks really young in some scenes n im like who is this
Given how it gives every episode a consistent look, how it creates a great atmosphere for each battle and how it just looks dang neat, I'll say I think me likes it a lot.
It has the added benefits of a colorful palette while not completely straying from the muted colors during important scenes. Also the introduction of the original gotei 13 was fantastic.
The brightness and the Colora. I also love the contrast between the different places in the SS, how the royal palace is bright and funny, the SS is a more gloomy and the Muken is this dark obsidian. I love it
It's nice. It's closer to the original animation than the middle or the end. They really went all out in the earliest episodes before it got cookie-cutter outsourced.
To be honest, i don't really like it. Especially when it changes the style in fight animations. But.... I can deal with it. It is not bad. It is just dufferent than before. I am simply happy to have it animated at all .
the new animation style is SO GOOD I cannot possibly pinpoint onet hing. I havent watched many new anime I realize so this quality jump is insane for me.
The new style has it's ups and downs. However, they do a good job adding movement where it should be. I remember a couple episodes ago where they animated Ichigo's long coat to look like it had weight to it, and I was like, "wow, I never realized that the previous studio never did that".
Yeah, same. Like, the art in the Arrancar Arc. I'm not a fan of these added shadings and whatnot (i dunno the correct term, I'm not an artist lol) but I'm happy that they don't over-redesign the animation. It's still faithful to the original animation that we know and love.

bright color make brain happy
Especially when Kirio was cooking. Reminded me of Miyazaki
!ThesaurizeThis
make my brain unhappy
The lighting and special effects have been really good so far. It gives Bleach a unique feeling, and sets it apart from other anime.
It feels...HD and CLEAN!
its the new directors influence. if u look up the other anime he worked on ul see the similarities.
And it's previous arcs . It feels like I'm watching a brand new high quality anime with a cool plot .
It’s super vibrant and soft. The movements are swift and fluid while making hits look heavy when they need too.
I love it, feels so modern and fresh but without completely changing the aesthetic
Exactly!
Agreed I was really worried that it would change too much and the humor would also change but it's been going well so far.

Way better lighting effects and lines in the art are heavier.
Renji’s hairline is not so bad anymore too
it's from episode 8?
9
I watch every 3 episodes. An episode gets done in a flash from what I feel.

Color palette and special effects, also style and use of colors, like in Yamamoto Tenchi Kaijin scene or Zanka no Tachi activation
I love it. This season has been the best animation of the franchise imo
“imo” Bro😭😭😭😭😭😭
It's clean, fluid, and colorful.
For some reason I still like the older animation 🫣
I like the fullbring arc animation a lot lol
liking the older aint wrong just that this one is better
Me too! When I watched the first episode I was like what this is not the bleach animation I know and love
You can like both, no one can blame you lmao
I like the way they’re using colors to depict the tone. Light hearted scenes are very vibrant, while sad/heavy scenes are muted and dull.
im just like in awe that its in HD n the animation is so smooth but i wish they stuck closer to kubo's art style the whole way through. ichigo looks really young in some scenes n im like who is this
Everything
IT'S ABSOLUTE
What are the red lines for
Is that a bean and a heart
Ep released?
Is it just me that thinks Sōma from food war in English dub sounds like English dub ichigo Completely unrelated just thought of it
Honestly the colors and the way Reishi moves. Like how you see the arrows and Yhwach’s sword

Am I the only one who feels the coloring in many of the scenes are so dark that its hard to see clearly ? Am not hating am just an opinion .
I never had that issue. My brightness was fine. Maybe check your device brightness?
Everything ?
Orihime
The brightness and the Colora. I also love the contrast between the different places in the SS, how the royal palace is bright and funny, the SS is a more gloomy and the Muken is this dark obsidian. I love it
Same!
It’s tipped towards Ufotable color schemes, I like it lots of clean animations with dark colors such as purple red ect.

What are some examples you don't like?
if I'm being honest, lighting in some places is my only issue with it
I agree with you .
Is this Loss?
Just when these folks couldn’t get sexier, the animation went 📈🥵
Amogus
It looks so gorgeous! I love the attention to detail and the vibrant colors. Makes the fights sooo much cooler to watch!
LOVE IT
The best animation and quality imo
I prefer it to the style of og bleach
I like the GETSUGA effects
They should do the episode where shinji uses his upside down sword in inverted colors
Feel like I'm watching OG Bleach but in High Def. I love it
Probably one of my favorites out of all the anime I’ve watched
The visuals are what I wanted from the start of the anime in the 00’s
I really like the new style. It manages to look modern and unique, but not overly glossy like Dragon Ball Super.
Its definitely the colours and the lighting
i like the fullbring artstyle a lil more, but the way ichigo vs yhwach was animated cant be beat
the new animation style is SO GOOD I cannot possibly pinpoint onet hing. I havent watched many new anime I realize so this quality jump is insane for me.

It's like Renji is scolding Isane's sister 🤭
It’s definitely more modern, but I do miss the cartoony look it has before.
Aww man, why did you have to spoil the Ichigo and Renji sex scene?
Rangiku matsumoto
Don't get me wrong i think the animation is GOD TIER but in some scenes they give too much filters in some scenes
Yeah, same. Like, the art in the Arrancar Arc. I'm not a fan of these added shadings and whatnot (i dunno the correct term, I'm not an artist lol) but I'm happy that they don't over-redesign the animation. It's still faithful to the original animation that we know and love.
Looks great
The colors and particle effects are on another level. You can see dusts floating in the daylight in some scenes of the new episode
Wtf are you circling?
OP should learn the difference between art and animation
Whats the red circle for?
I wish I could caption but it's my highlight of what I find gorgeous about it, the color contrast and attention to such detail
it looks more polished and brighter
Good
I miss the Cloak openings they used to draw on the shihakusho
this entire comment section but the opposite. Just don't like the new look with it's weird glossy , unclean blue tint look is plain bad to me.
Looks a bit Pokemon-ish
nothing
