Transcript

About to watch episode 228 of BLEACH. People have told me to to watch it, so I'm excited. I swear I didn't know that was in the episode. People just told me to watch it. No, you knew it because you saw it on TikTok. And you still chose to watch it. They said it was a direct reflection of the type of person you are. It said it was canon.
