What to expect from Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War episode 11?
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War episode 11, titled Everything But The Rain, will follow Ichigo after he was deemed unworthy by Oetsu Nimaiya. He was kicked out of the Soul King Palace, after which he found himself in front of Kurosaki Clinic.
Ichigo would immediately run away, as he was ashamed of himself and unwilling to meet his friends and father. He would then go to Ikumi-san, his employer at his part-time workplace, which is where his father would find him in his Shinigami form.
Isshin Kurosaki will then proceed to tell Ichigo about his lineage, as not knowing about himself is the reason Ichigo's Bankai Zanpakuto couldn't be reforged.
The episode is set to show fans how Ichigo's parents first met each other while also revealing the truth about Masaki Kurosaki.
What happened last time?
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War episode 10, titled The Battle, saw the battle between Yachiru Unohana and Zaraki Kenpachi get full-blown, as fans got to see a flashback of the first time the two met.
It was revealed how Zaraki Kenpachi scarred Unohana, all while remaining her biggest opponent to date. This was when it was revealed how Zaraki would try and seal away his powers to extend his battles for as long as possible.
Thus, Yachiru repeatedly dealt death blows to Zaraki, soon after which she would heal him, causing him to open his seals. When Unohana revealed her Bankai Minazuki, Zaraki managed to open his seals and kill her.
Elsewhere, Ichigo and Renji were finally acquitted by Oetsu Nimaiya at Hooden. The two were instantly sent for a test using the Asauchi, which Ichigo failed. Ichigo was then sent back to the World of the Living to learn more about himself.
