I actually really liked that the Bambi's ambushed Kenpachi. Bleach traditionally only had 1v1 honor fights, so it was realistic and really pragmatic to ambush one of the biggest war threats while he was weakened. It gave the female sternritters an opportunity to show their abilities, and it helped solidify that this was a war where they weren't afraid to take cheap shots.
Didn't they beat yhwach the first time with a cheap shot having chojiro hide in some corpse. Or in the fake karakura town arc having 2-3 soul reapers fighting one Espada?
Giselle and Mayuri have a lot more in common than I think some people realize. Both are very entertaining and funny to watch but so immensely cruel and twisted.
One of the funniest moments with the Bambis is when Mayuri askes Giselle what fun there is in controlling someone with no will of their own. And Giselle responding with that she wouldn't know, since she is not a sadist... The sheer irony of that scene is so strong that it's hilarious, and it really highlights the dark humor that make both Mayuri and Giselle such fun characters.
@@hyokodesu Yeah pretty much said so in the manga his one those femboys... Always found that reveal creepy and weird how he was just pretending to be a girl just to fit in with the Bamabi's! Kubo probably thought it would be funny though so that's why he probably did that. I mean It did surprise me at least. I don't get how Bambi's didn't figure it out sooner also thier wasn't much reaction from them which was also strange, Hope the Anime makes the scenes better and fills in plot holes a bit on it though
My Theory is that Giselle, Liltotto and Meninas are the main group with Bambi forcing her way in and Candice is the new member so shes not fully integrated yet which is why she fights alone.
Meninas became my favourite in the anime. Despite being rather kind-hearted, open-minded and easily influenced by others, she seems to have a strong sense of duty and can operate by herself doing what's necessary to follow orders. Unarguably the most reliable of the Bambies, the only one who'd never lay a finger on any of them unless it's Yhwach's order or someone else's enchantment. Also, a formidable fighter - more than any other girl excells in prolonged combat, as well as a good bodyguard with absurd physical strength. The only thing to break this image is her indifference about Bambietta. Even if it was actually done to save her from becoming Yhwach's emergency ration (which is most likely not the case), she could at least question if it was the only option. Kinda wish we knew what her actual motivation is. She gives an impression of someone who'd rather not do what she's doing if it wasn't for given orders.
Meninas sometimes gives the impression that she isn't fully in synch with what's going on, even if she knows what's happening. Maybe it's because of her flat emotional affect.
@@MrGksarathy maybe in a way. But she's also quick to point out when something dumb is happening around her. Like when Rukia decided to just run away leaving her back unprotected, or Ichigo seeing only Yhwach despite being surrounded from all sides.
I don't know if anyone can relate to this, but the Bambies have grown on me so much over time. Like, I didn't care for them when I read TYBW at first and thought they were rather annoying side characters. Now they are some of my favourite Sternritters and I can't even really understand why I disliked them back in the day
Makes sense kind of, they really didn't much in the manga, which is why I find it insulting they were Ichigo's opponents because they felt so weak. To me I still find them annoying b*tches with "sh*t" personalities, but at a lesser extent.
The Bambi's acted like proper soldiers regarding Kenpachi while the Shinigami, as usual when it comes to the Gotei 13, behaved like Warriors despite supposedly being a military organization.
I like the point you brought up about them possibly trying to help Bambietta in a twisted way by letting Giselle kill and zombify her. Bambietta would have not only still been executed but her soul would have been appropriated/absorbed by Yhwach.
@thedeephustlers8650 true but Yhwach didn't seem to be executing the defeated ritters cause they were injured, it seemed to be punishment for being defeated. So even if they healed Bambi, she still could've been beheaded. But I would still agree, bottom line Giselle def zombified her as a tactical/fetish move not for compassion.
Menina's power was expanded so that was cool. And Giselle got some 1 on 1 abilities to summon minions without corpses. So that's good. Hell even Liltotto got cool now powers. It was a great episode.
Liltotto best sternritter, shes calm and rational unlike all these bloodthirsty backstabbing freaks. She actually helps her comrades. Also her name is adorable
This might sound wierd, but Liltotto is one of my favorite Sternitters. I really like the petite girl who can kick all sorts of ass. And the fact that she's the strategist as well is a bonus.
Liltotto is my absolute favorite. Underrated power that COULD make her the strongest Stern but she chooses not to abuse it and the fact that she’s one of the more intelligent Sterns in general made me like her more. Plus I love Kuudere types that show little emotion and have strong poker faces. Still the best A1 shit talker too. Problem is I can’t say that cause there’s a lot of annoying people that associate anything involving a petite woman to liking kids as if irl there aren’t petite women.
The Bambi Squad are honestly up there among my favorite Bleach antagonists, just because of how much personality they're able to convey in such a short time.
Did Kubo ever actually confirm Bambietta sleeps with people before killing them? It always looked to me like she just lured them and didn't actually do anything before just killing them.
No, nothing was ever confirmed. The panel flow suggests that next to no time passed, and everything we know of Bambietta impatience and short-temperedness suggests she wouldn't wait for a man to "relieve" her when she could just get that relief killing him.
Despite how certain sections of the fandom feel, the Bambis have proven to be a popular and marketable faction, in particular I'm glad Meninas has been getting alot of love following the latest episode, she was always my favorite since the start.😊
To the point of why Giselle didn't just heal Bambi over turning her into a zombie, I think you sort of answered that question moment before asking it. If Bambietta lost her fight to Kamamora, then healed to full or not, she failed, and would likely be pulled in by Uryu anyway.
@@be4u724 kubo calls her a girl when talking about her so thats answer enough. he did say she was born male when asked once tho, every time since he still calls her a girl.
Liltotto's my favorite. Aside from being the smartest quincy shown out there, she's Garfield in terms of personality. Ability-wise, she's basically Kirby, despite everyone comparing her to a chain chomp.
Was not really a fan of Giselle or Meninas in the manga, but this episode changed that. Especially with Giselle. Loved every reaction the character had. Was very fun to watch 😂
I like the Bambies, specifically Liltotto, but I wish we were given their backstories, not like a full backstory, but more hints as to what might of led them to their current selves, something like As Nodt's past. My reason for why I wish they had pasts is because if one wants to write fanfic involving them, you basically have to take a massive guess with how little you see of their personality, specifically either Liltotto or Candice, maybe Bambietta, given you have to really read between the lines. For example, if one wants to explore their character, you have to create a backstory for them, be it to explain their personality or any issues they have, like Bambietta's fear of death, Giselle's abandonment issues, or Meninas's seeming lack of emotions to any situation. I bring up their lack of backstory because I'm working on a Bleach: An Odd Little World fanfic. The fanfic is a rewrite, with various changes done throughout the whole story while following the canon events to the best of my abilities and taking a different interpretation of the work. But the biggest and weirdest change that I've done is about some of the Bambies, specifically Liltotto, Candice, and Meninas, where instead of ever becoming Sternritter, they end up being taken care of Ryuken Ishida, changing their roles from villains to main characters of my story, who must deal with their traumas and issues. The idea for this change came from a bizarre fanfic called Vow of the King, where Nemu went to Karakura Town instead of Rukia and gave Ichigo his power, and for some reason, Bambietta and Candice were allies during the Soul Society Arc. It wasn't very good, but I like the idea of those two being allies or main characters, something that isn't explored often in any fanfic on them, so I decided to add that to my fanfic while I decided to add in Liltotto because I like her character.
I’ve recently created a fanfic involving my personal favorite group for a few reasons: seeing each of their perspectives in the events of the TYBW arc, what did they discuss when Bambietta was going face to face with Komamura, and most of all fleshing out Candice, Liltotto and Meninas’s proper fights (since Kubo gave Giselle a bunch of screen time in the manga and probably will do so in the anime) and give hints of what led these 5 ladies together. It’s in the works and I’m creating one chapter after another. Bleach is what made me became a fanfic writer after getting to know the series and loving the show a lot.
@@clydu91 My theory/just a massive guess is that Liltotto was an orphan either abandoned by her parents or they died somehow, with her born somewhere in France or Great Britain due to her first name being English while her surname was French. For most of her childhood, she was constantly starving, always without a full belly, leaving her somewhat stunted in her growth. Throughout her hardship, no one ever helped her or cared, leaving her to believe that one must survive by one's own merit and power while also making her distant from any relationship. All of this leads her to become apathetic and rather sardonic Sternritter, with Liltotto joining the Vandenreich after Yhwach 'saves' her from her grim life, giving her power and gaining her loyalty for being one of the first people to truly notice her existence. This is just the best and most interesting backstory I could I think of.
@@ezra1735 This would make the most sense for her. Adding to that she is the smartest of the 5, if not the smartest out of the entire group of quincies, in a pragmatic sense. It wouldn't be surprising to believe that her intelligence comes from a time in her life where she's constantly trying to survive, learning to adapt in harsh environments, looking for food, and the many ways to forage, pillage, purchase, and store as much food as possible while avoiding trouble. This would even tie into how her schrift truly works in the CFYOW light novel.
@@supersonicmario56The idea was one my best concepts for Liltotto past, with the current idea making the most sense due to it not only explaining her personality but why she seems to not have interest in others, when in reality, it's due to her being uncertain about relationship in general due to her past.
She's still considerably strong even before her RG training, but I'm a little suprised Rukia even lasted somewhat long against Meninas in the first invasion. And why did she even come back to say bye to Rukia after beating the poor girl to near death 😭
Lol. That was funny. Like, who did they think they were to take on Yhw? The gals thought they were the MC for a second. That's the equivalent of krillen and yamcha trying to defeat Beerus😂.
Right after the fights end we can see Yhwach goes back to sleep and the Almighty switches to Haschwalt. I like to think that they were aware of how Yhwach power switch works so the plan was to have Bazz B distract Haschwalt while having the Almighty expecting Yhwach to be vulnerable and they'd just sneak kill him but since now Haschwalt sees the future he rapidly switched back to Yhwach to deal with both.
Yea, Kubo definitely likes the Bambies. Even before he mentioned them having an extended scene, I figured he liked them when they were used to scuffle with Ichigo. Then he had McAllon say it was unsurprising that she and Liltotto were able to fight after NaNa, Candice, and Robert got trounced by Byakuya.
The fact that Candice wings can be ripped off and used makes me think of Kilge Opie wings coming off and falling down around the opponent creating a reishi prison based on their design. But he has the jail ability so that's probably not the case. But Giselle generating bones from her wings to make henchman could say otherwise
It's obvious that from the moment Ywach takes everyone's power Kubo started rushing the story. Hope anime will fix that problem and give Bambis actual fight scene with him. On a positive note, considering Bleach logic a lot of them can be saved. After all we had characters survive worse.
Just like In type soul im an arrancar and my god are quincies annoying legit had people saying quincyk for months because they were so broken the quincyk is like the kkk so we hunt em down
This video made my day since the Bambies/Femritters are my personal favorite group. And I’m still glad that they’re getting the love and respect they deserve in the anime including revealing Liltotto, Giselle and Meninas’s holy forms. If I have to rank my favorites of the Bambies: 1. Liltotto 2. Bambietta 3. Candice 4. Giselle 5. Meninas I would be lying if said I was never a fan of neither Meninas or Candice, no I was definitely a fan of them from the moment they first appeared in the manga. Liltotto totally won me over and became my personal favorite when she killed Pepe. The fight between her and Giselle vs Yhwach needs to be slightly expanded upon in the anime because I want to see both Liltotto and Giselle put up a fight with Yhwach before he defeats them. I’m really glad that in CFYOW the Bambies are still alive and not forgotten about, because personally I didn’t want them to be one and done characters.
There is something I really do not like about them: Giselle's power. It makes very little sense, is totally broken, and is just used as a plot device to revive character who are dead in a cheap way. And the fact that Mayuri can regain control over the zombies, with just technology, is even more contrived. He basically created a better version of Giselle's broken ability with technology. What next then? Can he invent a fridge so cold it's colder than Rukia's bankai? A bizillion remotely controlled tiny blades more powerful than Senbonzakura?
@@user-gj5gu2wl9f yeah, and any other skill when the author feels that way apparently. It is generally a good trope when the "brain" means strategy/quick thinking during the fight. Less so when it means "I invented the perfect solution to beat you before our battle even started, so I win". Oh and I just remembered Mayuri's zombies just happens to also be a perfect counter to Pepe's love that is already stronger than Giselle's zombies. Isn't that wonderful?
@@Zakeru750 mayuri's solution isnt an asspull at all- giselle's ability revolves around her blood infecting people to make them zombies. Remember that hollows are toxic to quincy- mayuri just so happens to have multiple arrancar. By injecting the blood of the arrancar into the zombies, it effectively kills the blood giselle has in them, and frees them. literally anyone could have done this- and if not mayuri's arrancar, he could have just as easily gotten blood from say, nelliel. mayuri likely wasn't even PLANNING to use the blood to fix zombies in the first place- knowing him, he probably wanted to see what happens when he injects arrancar blood into living quincy.
@@SylvisNuvara Nope, that is not at all what is said in the manga. The Arrancar's blood is only used to inject an ass-pulled drug that gets the victim stuck in a time-loop that basically OS several captain level Shinigamis (INSANELY HUGE ass-pull), and then a "blood-like" serum made of the blood of the member of the Gotei 13 turns them into Mayuri zombies, overriding the ability of a character whose core ability is to make zombies (huge ass-pull). And of course Mayuri happens to have a blood sample of every officer of the Gotei 13, but I will only count that as a minor ass-pull. So, yeah, we are quite high on the ass-pulling scale. Btw, even if your head cannon were true, it still sounds like quite a big ass-pull.
Kubo said that Bambies and Ukitake are going to get more new scenes in cour 2 and 3 so I believe that their story will be extended a bit in cour 3. I hopr that maybe Bambietta will get more scenes because it's weird that she completly dissapears after aushwalen. Maybe Lilltoto and Giselle will take her to fight Yhwach.
I’m glad they gave them more screen time to display their abilities . And I’m also glad they displayed other quincies using different quincy techniques other than the holy form
You didn't have to put DESTROYED, lol. Just beaten would've been fine for my favorite character. Love the video as always you're one of my favorite Bleach content creators! You're so versed and eloquently spoken when it comes to Bleach knowledge! Thank you for the videos and keeping Bleach alive on CZcams!
I remember a LONG ass time ago when someone put forward the idea that the Bambies were all actually one Sternritter with multiple personalities, and it was all because of their early presentation in the manga and how Bambietta was essentially the only one of their group we saw actually taking the field, and this persisted all the way up until after Bambietta's death. It was a crackpot theory even then, but the idea has stayed with me all these years and I still love bringing it up.
I think the reason why they didn't just heal Bambi, was simply cuz jugram would take Bambi and just execute her anyway. And if they simply healed her it would go against the Quincy rules and they would risk being called traitors to yhwach and they would all get executed with Bambi. Turning Bambi into a zombie simply let's Bambi stay in the group without any drawbacks to pretty much anybody but Bambi herself. Cuz Bambi will forever be under control of giselle, it was better for her this way anyway, cuz She is basically back to being normal again in the bambi group post tybw arc while sometimes Giselle if Bambi gets to annoying Giselle will turn Bambi back into her mindless zombie state. Honestly Bambi deserved worse than what she got. she is literally a deranged psychopathic murderer. That kills her own subordinates to make herself feel better. I don't get how anyone can feel bad for Bambi honestly. But yes giselle did save Bambi in their own twisted way.
I don’t believe kenpachi was “savagely beaten” if you look at the imagery he looks severely concerned with idea of yachiru missing. He also tells ichigo to worry about himself. Just a thought kenpachi was distracted not beaten.
@@-------....___ rude as always is see dipshit and of course he would agiesnt a one v 4 versus some of most busted haxs in the series gislle turns him into a zombie of lilitono eats himhowever he would crush both candice and meninas had he been at his best and not worrying about yachiru especially since even after taking two more hits from candice they still could barely react to him
@@asuraofwrath When you rewatch that fight or read the manga do you subscribe to the idea that the damage he sustained from Gremmy was so great he would be taken out so easily by the Bambies? Do you see any of Kenny’s true nature exhibited in the brief Bambi fight?8 don’t I see someone lost in concern, uninterested in the battle in front of him. Kenpachi would sooner strip himself of the title before allowing himself to lose like that.
I can't wait for the battle of the zombies! In particular, Hitsugaya looking fresh af in the sternritter uniform lol. Him vs Mayuri, even tho its pretty short, is one of my favorite fights in the arc. Giselle getting plenty of screentime is great considering she's my favorite Bambi as well.
I hope we get to see Liltoto actually subdue Meninas on screen because I'm actually curious as to how Liltoto could actually pull that off, were just sort of told to accept that without being given any proof.
Ikr, Meninas' physical stats are supposed ti be up there with Kenpanchi's. Liltoto is not just the smartest, but probably the most powerful amongst the group
When I saw them in the manga I honestly liked Candice the most, but after seeinf them all in the anime Liltotto grew on me a LOT! Love the demeanor of hers and the voice is perfect
I always had this theory that none of them liked Bambi. Like in the manga Bambi shows a violent steak towards them . In the manga Bambi throws a bomb at them after Giselle and Candice as thwyre aurguing Not to mention they ditch her the moment they get the chance . Giselle straight up calls her dumb so its likely they were predicting it. Its such an overlooked detail because they knew how fast Bambietta could hit the roof , Giselle even says she won't win the fight. Them delibertly leaving her,and giselles comment is such a interesting character moemnt because they would've stomped kamamura had they all been together.
Bambi is the worst and not Giselle? LOL the weirdo trans character that molests people. Funny. When a woman is violent towards friends its cuz she's a bitch, but if a man is doing its Lawl guy stuff
@@Shinntokuwhat in the headcanon bullshit have I just read, take that shit to watt pad because none of that makes sense at all 💀 the guy was legit walking out so either he was done and she was satisfied or nothing happened
@@klemenhudobreznik3421 straight up lying now.. thats sad you know, that you cant accept a man being feminine they are humans not objects. your fetishes need to go
Is it possible that before giselle and liltotto confronted yhwach. Giselle picked up more deceased Stern Ritter members to add to her zombie army possibly even Cang Du, BG9, Robert, Meninas, Candice maybe even the three kenpachi killed in the beginning? Also, based on CFYOW, Liltotto could have eaten some of the deceased Stern Ritter members and obtained their powers. Im guessing this is how they could "justify" standing up to yhwach. I hope this event gets expanded upon in the next arc.
They managed to make Ywach stand up from his chair, so they must've at least put up some fight otherwise it was kinda stupid if they came there without any preparation knowing how powerful Ywach is.
But CFYOW also mentions that Meninas and Candice are locked in soul society and not zombified, and as well for Liltotto, she doesn't show the abilities of neither Cang Du, BG9 or Robert, only mentions having Pepe's ability.
I think in the CFYOW light novels, it's revealed that those people revived by Giselle's "The Zombie", are brought to their true personality. So while she comes off as cocky with a violent temper, Bambietta is actually submissive, meek, and somewhat of a masochist
@@Dixie-Normus-True According to Giselle, she can only zombify Quincies when they're dead, hence why she had to kill Bambietta to possess her. Apparently Shinigami don't have to be dead to control them It's easier to suppress the personalities of those who were zombified when they're alive. When the target is dead, their actual personality comes out
@@Dixie-Normus-TrueI think Gigi did suppress Kensei and Rose, but when it comes to Toshiro he didn't really change much. He is a warrior after all, and he acted as if Mayuri was his enemy, so he attempted to kill him, kinda what he did to Luppy.
Yes! I’ve been waiting on this video ever since you said you were going to do a video on the Bambies in another one of your videos (I think it was the Komamura vs. Bambietta one). Bambietta is my favorite Bambi and I hate the date that she got. I felt that her character could’ve gone so many different ways but Kubo decided to make her Giselle’s zombie. That’s a worse fate than dying. 😭 And the rest of the Bambies, they ain’t shit because Giselle really turned someone that was supposed to be her friend into a zombie and the other Bambies let her. And even though I like Giselle, I also hate her for what she did to Bambi (and Toshiro, Rangiku, Kensei, and Rose). Even though the rest of the Bambies ain’t shit, I still love them. They really made this last episode entertaining for me. I’m so glad they kept in the part of Giselle, Meninas, and Liltotto purposefully landing on Candice’s face. That, along with Bambietta demolishing Shinji, are my favorite Bambies moments lol. These girls are absolutely hilarious. Here’s my ranking for the Bambies from my favorite to least favorite: 1. Bambietta 2. Candice 3. Meninas 4. Liltotto 5. Giselle (Meninas and Liltotto’s placements could switch) Bambietta does have a named/enhanced Holy Form. Kubo designed shirts for the Bambies that have one of their attack names from their Holy Forms on the front of them and one of the shirts had Bombing Bambi on it. So, she does have one but unfortunately she didn’t use it. Side note: those shirts are only available in Japan because the website that’s selling them doesn’t have international shipping for them and I’m so sad about it. 😭😭😭
I think Bambi's wings are inspired on a Garuda. Of course it's all headcanon and fanfiction at this point, but if Kubo were to draw her enhaced magical girl Vollstandig I bet it will gain more birdie features. We can only hope he one days fancies to do a special drawing.
Maybe this video is long enough already but i think you could've gone briefly into what they did in CFYOW even if its dubiously canon at this point. I feel like that would've been a better ad to draw people to the CFYOW summaries like giving a taster. Maybe another video for them if they do more stuff in the anime and you can include the light novel stuff there. I think even if giselle heals bambi she still ends up executed for her failure. Cang was healed from the vollstandig and BG9 was recovering himself but they still got executed. So zombifying her was the only way.
They were in the 6th(or 5th prob I forgot) Cfyow part which is cannon where they join tier, Nel, and grimjow + some random arrancars fight a Black Trans ichigo Candice and meni were captured by mayuri though.
Meninas is my personal favorite. I never got to know her as a character until the Thousand Year Blood War anime since I never read the manga, but I like the way she looks. I would argue that she is the bustiest of the Bambis, and perhaps hotter than Candice.
Meninas is definitely a character that was just sort of "there" in the manga, but I think she's my favorite of the Bambies and one of the best of all Sternritter in the anime specifically. The cross between a weight lifter and a baton twirler with her enhanced Volstandig is inspired.
Reading again the manga I had the impression that Gigi actually could've "slept" with Bambi zombie. Because it matches the moment when Yumichika said she smells like semen. Maybe that's what Bambieta keeps asking Gigi. She could be a ninfomaníac even as a zombie. I don't know. But I thought it was interesting.
@@bynosaurus4024 Exactly, that's why she was smelling semen. She had a sex relation with Bambi. It could be oral or regular sex. Not even regular men smell of semen if they haven't had sex.
@@bynosaurus4024 in japan gender and sex mean the same Kubo meant that he is fully a man. he didnt say Giselle is "a woman deep inside" (which is a better description to a trans people in japanese)
If you think about it, Giselle did her a kindness. If Giselle had healed her instead of turning her, then she'd be taken and executed by hashbrown for failure, like Cang and BG-9.
"Admittedly though i still don't know why Giselle didn't just heal Bambiettta rather than kill her." Because like you said: If she were alive after her mistake of winning, no matter what condition she would be in (You yourself point out Cang Du seems mostly fine after breaking out of Toshiro's ice), she'd then be collected by Uryuu for execution.
3:47 Given BG9 indicated he could repair his damaged body himself, Gigi healing Bambi likely wouldn't have changed Uryu coming for her. The failure matters more than the damage I think.
I don't think Giselle dreams of void or something censored. The joke is that she acts all excited at the perspective of a reward but empty headed as she is, she does not even know what to wish for.
Yes. It’s disturbing how we need to ‘respect the identity’ of an utter amoral psychopath, the playing as a woman clearly fits into the weird fetish he has but no we need to respect it. Yumichika knows giselle is male because he smells ‘like semen’ - giselle is getting off on what he’s doing. This is a fetish. Is giselle representative of trans people? No…? Why would anyone think that. Giselle is just a freaky psycho, quite simple honestly no respecting required.
@@tragiic333 I do not want to start a gender/sexe distinction and transgenderism discussion. But he/she is probably a biological male identifying as a female. So, I feel ok with using whichever pronoun.
@@leonie_gata_de_outono except thats not how it works. a person can deeply feel they are a dog and wear a furry suit. doesnt make em a dog. this concept of "belief makes it so" for gender comes from John Money and Volkmar Siguch Giselle is confirmed to be a male who crossdresses cause he enjoys it sexually, thats "autoginephilia"
This was surprising seeing a video on the Sternritter Girls. I just started on the banner in Brave Souls and got 3 Bambietta and 2 Candice. Also can we get a hashtag “Justice for Ebern” going?
Good afternoon. I'm fan of bleach and Bambie's. Everyone have great day and next day and week and weekend and next week and full happiness😊😊😊😊😊. Great video and keep make great videos.
It would be nice if they somehow managed to fit in Liltotto's mini-backstory (though I think it was just one small meeting) with Gremmy somewhere later in the anime. It would help to give some of the Sternritters a bit more backstory, and might add some nice depth to her feelings towards Yhwach when she eventually goes to confront him. Also, always thought it was weird that Liltotto and Giselle attempted to fight Yhwach by themselves without much of a plan, knowing what they know about how strong he is. Thinking about it, if the anime includes the Glutton's ability to steal powers, then that plus the Zombie could be kind of a powerhouse combination. I wonder if we might actually see what happens in that fight - I could see them fitting it and the Bazz B/Haschwalth stuff in one episode.
The thing with Bambietta having least powers compared to other bambis and her being their leader is quite interesting. Her power was so devastating that in the beginning others weren't able to surpass her. She was kind of like Kenpachi, strong from the beginning, so she stagnated when other Bambis were working to surpass her. That's why they don't respect her anymore, because they feel they surpassed her and they are probably right. But if she really worked on her power she would reach Shutztoffel level I guess
Tommo it’s crazy how these ladies are still around even after the war is over! Since they do show up in the novels later on. Bambi’s holy form was probably called explosion of god. Being bambietta is suffering! Honestly these girls were all the most unique Quincy in this whole final arc and it’s super shocking because I think a lot of us didn’t expect them to become fan favorites so damn quickly. In a way meninas feels like orihime if she was Quincy while Candice reminds me a lot of grimmjow.
@@tragiic333 probably "excuse me bidgott and tansophobus, shes a lady!" Alot of lying is going on on twitter, saying "Kubo confirmed shes trans!" when in reality Kubo said Giselle is a crossdressing man who gets satisfaction from it. they are called "autoginephiliacs" Same drama as Bridget where the creator had to backtrack 10 years of story and rewrite everything in order to please the queer community.. making grooming out to be a good thing. he did this after getting pipebombs sent to his mail, and now is rumored to be regretting his submission to these people
@@DarkMark-cf1ec ACTUALLY BASED ON OLDER TRIVIA SHOWS IT MORE LIKELY IT IS TRANSWOMAN! THE TRIVIA IN MANGA RELEASE MENTIONED PHYSICALLY MALE WORDING aka SEX OF GISELLE!
Some of them I get why people would like them. But Gisele and Bambi are two of the single least likeable if not outright evil characters in bleach. Yes in my opinion at least these two are more evil than aizen. With aizen he had an understandable motivation (ambition) but horrid methods. But with these two? Bambi is just cruel and sadistic in that she gets off on seducing people just to kill them and Gisele is just... evil. Seriously not only do they belong on a registry for assaulting who was supposed to be her best friend but she then killed her then brought her back to torture her further and to get off on their control of said "friend". Giselle more than likely just brought her back just to be her meat shield and sex doll given their obsession for her and disregard for her well being. Under normal circumstances I'd say that Bambi deserved to die and that it was karma, plain and simple. But nobody deserves... THIS! I wouldn't call Giselle a sadist because that doesn't do it justice they were just evil for the sake of being evil. I'll never understand the appeal of characters like this.
@@truthspreader1996 worst part is that even though I despise Kurosutchi because I hate people who get off on hurting and treating people like crap, I found myself once again hoping that he'll give someone what they deserve...again I don't agree with how he chose to do it but I can at least say that he not only gave Giselle their just desserts but also at least saved a few people from having to exist as puppets and/or toys. Was he a douche about it?...Of course he was. Did I want to sock him for how he went about it? When do I not? But at least he... kind of cared (if you could call it that) enough to save some of the victims. And let's face it as much as I loath the snake he is pretty based from time to time and is an all together interesting character with depth and layers to him. There is a reason for most everything he does. Do I agree with those reasons?... No. But at least there's rhyme and reason to his motives as opposed to Gissele and Bambietta who just seem to be vile for the sake of being vile.
They didn't destroy Kenpachi, he was literally fried and internally liquified from being in space. What the hell are you on about. They took the advantage and attacked him when he pretty well couldn't fight back.
What do you think of The Bambies, and which of these characters is your favourite? Were you happy with how they were used in Bleach? Let me know!
I like the one with the green hair
None tbh they were boring characters
One with the Pink, Black, Green hair.
I hate Bambietta
Litotto is my fav probably, especially the anime I just really like her personality and voice
I actually really liked that the Bambi's ambushed Kenpachi. Bleach traditionally only had 1v1 honor fights, so it was realistic and really pragmatic to ambush one of the biggest war threats while he was weakened. It gave the female sternritters an opportunity to show their abilities, and it helped solidify that this was a war where they weren't afraid to take cheap shots.
I mean both invasions themselves can be considered cheap shots to begin with.
And people get mad at grimmjow for sneaking these quincies. Screw that. The quincies don't care about fighting fair.
Didn't they beat yhwach the first time with a cheap shot having chojiro hide in some corpse. Or in the fake karakura town arc having 2-3 soul reapers fighting one Espada?
@@jouskehigaskita8835I thought Coyote with Lilenette vs Shunsui and Utikate was a Tag Team Fight not Handicap
This is why it's called Thousand Year Blood War.
1st rule is there are no rules when it comes to war. 😎
Giselle and Mayuri have a lot more in common than I think some people realize. Both are very entertaining and funny to watch but so immensely cruel and twisted.
Truth. They are shadow reflections of one another, same as the others like Ichigo and Ginjo, Yamamoto and Yhwach, Aizen and Kisuke etc.
& They’re Men
New Blunder has just dropped @@YooSouth
So true!
@@YooSouthmakes sense why he would want a sex doll after probably being the only guy Bambi would never choose to sleep with.
One of the funniest moments with the Bambis is when Mayuri askes Giselle what fun there is in controlling someone with no will of their own.
And Giselle responding with that she wouldn't know, since she is not a sadist...
The sheer irony of that scene is so strong that it's hilarious, and it really highlights the dark humor that make both Mayuri and Giselle such fun characters.
It helps how in the Anime Mayuri is voice by Furiza's VA which just adds to the dark humor! 😅
@@fateslegacy Oh yeah. The voice actor for Mayuri is awesome, it really adds to how fun he is to watch on screen!

@@hyokodesu Yeah pretty much said so in the manga his one those femboys... Always found that reveal creepy and weird how he was just pretending to be a girl just to fit in with the Bamabi's! Kubo probably thought it would be funny though so that's why he probably did that. I mean It did surprise me at least. I don't get how Bambi's didn't figure it out sooner also thier wasn't much reaction from them which was also strange, Hope the Anime makes the scenes better and fills in plot holes a bit on it though
Actually she's transgender.@@fateslegacy
My Theory is that Giselle, Liltotto and Meninas are the main group with Bambi forcing her way in and Candice is the new member so shes not fully integrated yet which is why she fights alone.
Bambi was the leader tho
@@altria5615a self proclaimed leader you mean? The other girls never acknowledge her being their leader that's why they always leave her
Liltotto is def the leader 😅 you know she runs that group lol
@@jboww2121
Definitely best girl
@@renzrebancos8543 yes but she was still leader.
Meninas became my favourite in the anime.
Despite being rather kind-hearted, open-minded and easily influenced by others, she seems to have a strong sense of duty and can operate by herself doing what's necessary to follow orders.
Unarguably the most reliable of the Bambies, the only one who'd never lay a finger on any of them unless it's Yhwach's order or someone else's enchantment.
Also, a formidable fighter - more than any other girl excells in prolonged combat, as well as a good bodyguard with absurd physical strength.
The only thing to break this image is her indifference about Bambietta. Even if it was actually done to save her from becoming Yhwach's emergency ration (which is most likely not the case), she could at least question if it was the only option.
Kinda wish we knew what her actual motivation is. She gives an impression of someone who'd rather not do what she's doing if it wasn't for given orders.
Meninas sometimes gives the impression that she isn't fully in synch with what's going on, even if she knows what's happening. Maybe it's because of her flat emotional affect.
@@MrGksarathy maybe in a way. But she's also quick to point out when something dumb is happening around her. Like when Rukia decided to just run away leaving her back unprotected, or Ichigo seeing only Yhwach despite being surrounded from all sides.
why does menina give off (how heavy are the dumbells you lift)
I like her because her name literally means "girls" in portuguese. I don't know if Kubo knows but I think it's pretty funny.
@@RandomiusBroniusprobably Kubo probably knows some Spanish since he put so much Spanish in Hollow names like Hueco Mundo, Arrancar and etc...
I don't know if anyone can relate to this, but the Bambies have grown on me so much over time. Like, I didn't care for them when I read TYBW at first and thought they were rather annoying side characters.
Now they are some of my favourite Sternritters and I can't even really understand why I disliked them back in the day
Makes sense kind of, they really didn't much in the manga, which is why I find it insulting they were Ichigo's opponents because they felt so weak.
To me I still find them annoying b*tches with "sh*t" personalities, but at a lesser extent.
Agreed! Watching everything animated has made me love them.
Even with the anime their still Meh...
Liltotto is by far my favorite Sternritter
I like her power, her personality and her role in the story
The Bambi's acted like proper soldiers regarding Kenpachi while the Shinigami, as usual when it comes to the Gotei 13, behaved like Warriors despite supposedly being a military organization.
I like the point you brought up about them possibly trying to help Bambietta in a twisted way by letting Giselle kill and zombify her. Bambietta would have not only still been executed but her soul would have been appropriated/absorbed by Yhwach.
Yhwach appropriating the girlboss culture
Instead of just going into hiding?
@@odst72397 lol there is no hiding from Yhwach
@thedeephustlers8650 true but Yhwach didn't seem to be executing the defeated ritters cause they were injured, it seemed to be punishment for being defeated. So even if they healed Bambi, she still could've been beheaded. But I would still agree, bottom line Giselle def zombified her as a tactical/fetish move not for compassion.
I disagree. If that was the case she could just heal her or at the very least, not abuse her as a Zombie. They were not trying to help
Menina's power was expanded so that was cool. And Giselle got some 1 on 1 abilities to summon minions without corpses. So that's good. Hell even Liltotto got cool now powers. It was a great episode.
Funny how they're called the "Bambies" when Bambi herself died first, got zombified and abused by her squadmate.
Liltotto best sternritter, shes calm and rational unlike all these bloodthirsty backstabbing freaks. She actually helps her comrades. Also her name is adorable
Yea she's got the most unspoken rizz besides Ichigo and Aizen.
This might sound wierd, but Liltotto is one of my favorite Sternitters. I really like the petite girl who can kick all sorts of ass. And the fact that she's the strategist as well is a bonus.
Edp445
I agree with liking liltotto but we just can't when it comes to anime controversy my friend. We gonna get called 445.
Liltotto became the number one Sternritter the moment she got rid of Pepe imo
Liltotto is my absolute favorite. Underrated power that COULD make her the strongest Stern but she chooses not to abuse it and the fact that she’s one of the more intelligent Sterns in general made me like her more. Plus I love Kuudere types that show little emotion and have strong poker faces. Still the best A1 shit talker too. Problem is I can’t say that cause there’s a lot of annoying people that associate anything involving a petite woman to liking kids as if irl there aren’t petite women.
The Bambi Squad are honestly up there among my favorite Bleach antagonists, just because of how much personality they're able to convey in such a short time.
Did Kubo ever actually confirm Bambietta sleeps with people before killing them? It always looked to me like she just lured them and didn't actually do anything before just killing them.
No, nothing was ever confirmed.
The panel flow suggests that next to no time passed, and everything we know of Bambietta impatience and short-temperedness suggests she wouldn't wait for a man to "relieve" her when she could just get that relief killing him.
she definitely slept with them 😂 dont be jealous she isnt a real person
@@ceyuh There's no proof she did other than your thirsty ass' wishful thinking.

Despite how certain sections of the fandom feel, the Bambis have proven to be a popular and marketable faction, in particular I'm glad Meninas has been getting alot of love following the latest episode, she was always my favorite since the start.😊
To the point of why Giselle didn't just heal Bambi over turning her into a zombie, I think you sort of answered that question moment before asking it. If Bambietta lost her fight to Kamamora, then healed to full or not, she failed, and would likely be pulled in by Uryu anyway.

Liltotto's my favorite. Aside from being the smartest quincy shown out there, she's Garfield in terms of personality. Ability-wise, she's basically Kirby, despite everyone comparing her to a chain chomp.
Also she kind of adorable in a murdery way
Was not really a fan of Giselle or Meninas in the manga, but this episode changed that. Especially with Giselle. Loved every reaction the character had. Was very fun to watch 😂
LILTOTTO is a very underrated character. She is a cerebral character. She knows how to gauge an opponent if stronger than her. I LOVE HER!! ❤️❤️❤️
I like the Bambies, specifically Liltotto, but I wish we were given their backstories, not like a full backstory, but more hints as to what might of led them to their current selves, something like As Nodt's past. My reason for why I wish they had pasts is because if one wants to write fanfic involving them, you basically have to take a massive guess with how little you see of their personality, specifically either Liltotto or Candice, maybe Bambietta, given you have to really read between the lines. For example, if one wants to explore their character, you have to create a backstory for them, be it to explain their personality or any issues they have, like Bambietta's fear of death, Giselle's abandonment issues, or Meninas's seeming lack of emotions to any situation.
I bring up their lack of backstory because I'm working on a Bleach: An Odd Little World fanfic. The fanfic is a rewrite, with various changes done throughout the whole story while following the canon events to the best of my abilities and taking a different interpretation of the work. But the biggest and weirdest change that I've done is about some of the Bambies, specifically Liltotto, Candice, and Meninas, where instead of ever becoming Sternritter, they end up being taken care of Ryuken Ishida, changing their roles from villains to main characters of my story, who must deal with their traumas and issues.
The idea for this change came from a bizarre fanfic called Vow of the King, where Nemu went to Karakura Town instead of Rukia and gave Ichigo his power, and for some reason, Bambietta and Candice were allies during the Soul Society Arc. It wasn't very good, but I like the idea of those two being allies or main characters, something that isn't explored often in any fanfic on them, so I decided to add that to my fanfic while I decided to add in Liltotto because I like her character.
Maybe Liltotto with her small frame wished she had a bigger appetite to grow more considerong her small frame or something of the sort.
I’ve recently created a fanfic involving my personal favorite group for a few reasons: seeing each of their perspectives in the events of the TYBW arc, what did they discuss when Bambietta was going face to face with Komamura, and most of all fleshing out Candice, Liltotto and Meninas’s proper fights (since Kubo gave Giselle a bunch of screen time in the manga and probably will do so in the anime) and give hints of what led these 5 ladies together. It’s in the works and I’m creating one chapter after another.
Bleach is what made me became a fanfic writer after getting to know the series and loving the show a lot.
@@clydu91 My theory/just a massive guess is that Liltotto was an orphan either abandoned by her parents or they died somehow, with her born somewhere in France or Great Britain due to her first name being English while her surname was French. For most of her childhood, she was constantly starving, always without a full belly, leaving her somewhat stunted in her growth. Throughout her hardship, no one ever helped her or cared, leaving her to believe that one must survive by one's own merit and power while also making her distant from any relationship. All of this leads her to become apathetic and rather sardonic Sternritter, with Liltotto joining the Vandenreich after Yhwach 'saves' her from her grim life, giving her power and gaining her loyalty for being one of the first people to truly notice her existence. This is just the best and most interesting backstory I could I think of.
@@ezra1735 This would make the most sense for her. Adding to that she is the smartest of the 5, if not the smartest out of the entire group of quincies, in a pragmatic sense. It wouldn't be surprising to believe that her intelligence comes from a time in her life where she's constantly trying to survive, learning to adapt in harsh environments, looking for food, and the many ways to forage, pillage, purchase, and store as much food as possible while avoiding trouble. This would even tie into how her schrift truly works in the CFYOW light novel.
@@supersonicmario56The idea was one my best concepts for Liltotto past, with the current idea making the most sense due to it not only explaining her personality but why she seems to not have interest in others, when in reality, it's due to her being uncertain about relationship in general due to her past.
She's still considerably strong even before her RG training, but I'm a little suprised Rukia even lasted somewhat long against Meninas in the first invasion. And why did she even come back to say bye to Rukia after beating the poor girl to near death 😭
Maybe she always wanted to have a little sister.😭
Bleach tybw has the highest rating in IMDb right now. This is a comeback done right
What about breaking bad
@@Spurgteanime bruh🤡🤡
Its pretty safe to say that Liltotto was the true leader of the bambies.
It’s crazy how much of a role they play in Can’t fear your own world
Liltotto and Gizelle fighting ywhach on their own is definitely one of the dumbest most illogical things in this entire story lmaoooo
What other choice did they had?? The main cast originally was their enemies and their own teammates tried to kill them before.
Maybe don't fight the being that gives you your powers, huh?
Lol. That was funny. Like, who did they think they were to take on Yhw? The gals thought they were the MC for a second.
That's the equivalent of krillen and yamcha trying to defeat Beerus😂.
Right after the fights end we can see Yhwach goes back to sleep and the Almighty switches to Haschwalt. I like to think that they were aware of how Yhwach power switch works so the plan was to have Bazz B distract Haschwalt while having the Almighty expecting Yhwach to be vulnerable and they'd just sneak kill him but since now Haschwalt sees the future he rapidly switched back to Yhwach to deal with both.
Liltotto was the smartest of the bunch by far and she always had that dawg in her
Imagine if ALL the bambis were fighting together. That would be a sight to see
Yea, Kubo definitely likes the Bambies. Even before he mentioned them having an extended scene, I figured he liked them when they were used to scuffle with Ichigo.
Then he had McAllon say it was unsurprising that she and Liltotto were able to fight after NaNa, Candice, and Robert got trounced by Byakuya.
The fact that Candice wings can be ripped off and used makes me think of Kilge Opie wings coming off and falling down around the opponent creating a reishi prison based on their design. But he has the jail ability so that's probably not the case. But Giselle generating bones from her wings to make henchman could say otherwise
It's obvious that from the moment Ywach takes everyone's power Kubo started rushing the story. Hope anime will fix that problem and give Bambis actual fight scene with him.
On a positive note, considering Bleach logic a lot of them can be saved. After all we had characters survive worse.
Both groups are team killers but the sheer amount of times the Sternritter turn on one another they make the Arrancar look downright civil.
Just like In type soul im an arrancar and my god are quincies annoying legit had people saying quincyk for months because they were so broken the quincyk is like the kkk so we hunt em down
This video made my day since the Bambies/Femritters are my personal favorite group. And I’m still glad that they’re getting the love and respect they deserve in the anime including revealing Liltotto, Giselle and Meninas’s holy forms.
If I have to rank my favorites of the Bambies:
1. Liltotto
2. Bambietta
3. Candice
4. Giselle
5. Meninas
I would be lying if said I was never a fan of neither Meninas or Candice, no I was definitely a fan of them from the moment they first appeared in the manga. Liltotto totally won me over and became my personal favorite when she killed Pepe. The fight between her and Giselle vs Yhwach needs to be slightly expanded upon in the anime because I want to see both Liltotto and Giselle put up a fight with Yhwach before he defeats them.
I’m really glad that in CFYOW the Bambies are still alive and not forgotten about, because personally I didn’t want them to be one and done characters.
There is something I really do not like about them: Giselle's power. It makes very little sense, is totally broken, and is just used as a plot device to revive character who are dead in a cheap way. And the fact that Mayuri can regain control over the zombies, with just technology, is even more contrived. He basically created a better version of Giselle's broken ability with technology. What next then? Can he invent a fridge so cold it's colder than Rukia's bankai? A bizillion remotely controlled tiny blades more powerful than Senbonzakura?
Brain beats muscle
@@user-gj5gu2wl9f yeah, and any other skill when the author feels that way apparently. It is generally a good trope when the "brain" means strategy/quick thinking during the fight. Less so when it means "I invented the perfect solution to beat you before our battle even started, so I win".
Oh and I just remembered Mayuri's zombies just happens to also be a perfect counter to Pepe's love that is already stronger than Giselle's zombies. Isn't that wonderful?
The sternritter’s with broken abilities were beaten with the biggest ass pulls.
@@Zakeru750 mayuri's solution isnt an asspull at all- giselle's ability revolves around her blood infecting people to make them zombies. Remember that hollows are toxic to quincy- mayuri just so happens to have multiple arrancar. By injecting the blood of the arrancar into the zombies, it effectively kills the blood giselle has in them, and frees them.
literally anyone could have done this- and if not mayuri's arrancar, he could have just as easily gotten blood from say, nelliel.
mayuri likely wasn't even PLANNING to use the blood to fix zombies in the first place- knowing him, he probably wanted to see what happens when he injects arrancar blood into living quincy.
@@SylvisNuvara Nope, that is not at all what is said in the manga. The Arrancar's blood is only used to inject an ass-pulled drug that gets the victim stuck in a time-loop that basically OS several captain level Shinigamis (INSANELY HUGE ass-pull), and then a "blood-like" serum made of the blood of the member of the Gotei 13 turns them into Mayuri zombies, overriding the ability of a character whose core ability is to make zombies (huge ass-pull). And of course Mayuri happens to have a blood sample of every officer of the Gotei 13, but I will only count that as a minor ass-pull. So, yeah, we are quite high on the ass-pulling scale.
Btw, even if your head cannon were true, it still sounds like quite a big ass-pull.
Kubo said that Bambies and Ukitake are going to get more new scenes in cour 2 and 3 so I believe that their story will be extended a bit in cour 3. I hopr that maybe Bambietta will get more scenes because it's weird that she completly dissapears after aushwalen. Maybe Lilltoto and Giselle will take her to fight Yhwach.
I’m glad they gave them more screen time to display their abilities . And I’m also glad they displayed other quincies using different quincy techniques other than the holy form
I love how both explanations of Gigi's wish work very well with her personality
Probably to be female, but how exactly could you show that? Kubo probably thought of the private region, and just censored it as a joke.
You didn't have to put DESTROYED, lol. Just beaten would've been fine for my favorite character. Love the video as always you're one of my favorite Bleach content creators! You're so versed and eloquently spoken when it comes to Bleach knowledge! Thank you for the videos and keeping Bleach alive on CZcams!
Yeah just saying they jumped Kenpachi would work too.
hands down, I like the whole group more or less, but Liltotto is my absolute favorite
I remember a LONG ass time ago when someone put forward the idea that the Bambies were all actually one Sternritter with multiple personalities, and it was all because of their early presentation in the manga and how Bambietta was essentially the only one of their group we saw actually taking the field, and this persisted all the way up until after Bambietta's death.
It was a crackpot theory even then, but the idea has stayed with me all these years and I still love bringing it up.
I think the reason why they didn't just heal Bambi, was simply cuz jugram would take Bambi and just execute her anyway. And if they simply healed her it would go against the Quincy rules and they would risk being called traitors to yhwach and they would all get executed with Bambi. Turning Bambi into a zombie simply let's Bambi stay in the group without any drawbacks to pretty much anybody but Bambi herself. Cuz Bambi will forever be under control of giselle, it was better for her this way anyway, cuz She is basically back to being normal again in the bambi group post tybw arc while sometimes Giselle if Bambi gets to annoying Giselle will turn Bambi back into her mindless zombie state. Honestly Bambi deserved worse than what she got. she is literally a deranged psychopathic murderer. That kills her own subordinates to make herself feel better. I don't get how anyone can feel bad for Bambi honestly. But yes giselle did save Bambi in their own twisted way.
Giselle is so amazing. I love sadistic characters in anime
I'm glad this group is getting extra moments, they deserve it.
I don’t believe kenpachi was “savagely beaten” if you look at the imagery he looks severely concerned with idea of yachiru missing. He also tells ichigo to worry about himself. Just a thought kenpachi was distracted not beaten.

Kenpachi would sooner strip himself of the title before allowing himself to lose like that.
I can't wait for the battle of the zombies! In particular, Hitsugaya looking fresh af in the sternritter uniform lol. Him vs Mayuri, even tho its pretty short, is one of my favorite fights in the arc. Giselle getting plenty of screentime is great considering she's my favorite Bambi as well.
Gigi changed hos clothes mid battle so he could show up whit drip
I hope we get to see Liltoto actually subdue Meninas on screen because I'm actually curious as to how Liltoto could actually pull that off, were just sort of told to accept that without being given any proof.

Is it possible that before giselle and liltotto confronted yhwach. Giselle picked up more deceased Stern Ritter members to add to her zombie army possibly even Cang Du, BG9, Robert, Meninas, Candice maybe even the three kenpachi killed in the beginning? Also, based on CFYOW, Liltotto could have eaten some of the deceased Stern Ritter members and obtained their powers. Im guessing this is how they could "justify" standing up to yhwach. I hope this event gets expanded upon in the next arc.
They managed to make Ywach stand up from his chair, so they must've at least put up some fight otherwise it was kinda stupid if they came there without any preparation knowing how powerful Ywach is.
But CFYOW also mentions that Meninas and Candice are locked in soul society and not zombified, and as well for Liltotto, she doesn't show the abilities of neither Cang Du, BG9 or Robert, only mentions having Pepe's ability.
@@Sweetwolfyn yes that is based on what we know. But things could change.
I think in the CFYOW light novels, it's revealed that those people revived by Giselle's "The Zombie", are brought to their true personality. So while she comes off as cocky with a violent temper, Bambietta is actually submissive, meek, and somewhat of a masochist
So Bambietta’s whole personality is just a front? That’s actually kind of interesting.

@@Dixie-Normus-True According to Giselle, she can only zombify Quincies when they're dead, hence why she had to kill Bambietta to possess her. Apparently Shinigami don't have to be dead to control them
It's easier to suppress the personalities of those who were zombified when they're alive. When the target is dead, their actual personality comes out
@@Dixie-Normus-TrueI think Gigi did suppress Kensei and Rose, but when it comes to Toshiro he didn't really change much. He is a warrior after all, and he acted as if Mayuri was his enemy, so he attempted to kill him, kinda what he did to Luppy.

Yes! I’ve been waiting on this video ever since you said you were going to do a video on the Bambies in another one of your videos (I think it was the Komamura vs. Bambietta one).
Bambietta is my favorite Bambi and I hate the date that she got. I felt that her character could’ve gone so many different ways but Kubo decided to make her Giselle’s zombie. That’s a worse fate than dying. 😭 And the rest of the Bambies, they ain’t shit because Giselle really turned someone that was supposed to be her friend into a zombie and the other Bambies let her. And even though I like Giselle, I also hate her for what she did to Bambi (and Toshiro, Rangiku, Kensei, and Rose).
Even though the rest of the Bambies ain’t shit, I still love them. They really made this last episode entertaining for me. I’m so glad they kept in the part of Giselle, Meninas, and Liltotto purposefully landing on Candice’s face. That, along with Bambietta demolishing Shinji, are my favorite Bambies moments lol. These girls are absolutely hilarious.
Here’s my ranking for the Bambies from my favorite to least favorite:
1. Bambietta
2. Candice
3. Meninas
4. Liltotto
5. Giselle
(Meninas and Liltotto’s placements could switch)
Bambietta does have a named/enhanced Holy Form. Kubo designed shirts for the Bambies that have one of their attack names from their Holy Forms on the front of them and one of the shirts had Bombing Bambi on it. So, she does have one but unfortunately she didn’t use it. Side note: those shirts are only available in Japan because the website that’s selling them doesn’t have international shipping for them and I’m so sad about it. 😭😭😭
I wish we couldve seen all 5 of them fight together.
I think Bambi's wings are inspired on a Garuda. Of course it's all headcanon and fanfiction at this point, but if Kubo were to draw her enhaced magical girl Vollstandig I bet it will gain more birdie features. We can only hope he one days fancies to do a special drawing.
Love how kubo focused more on fodder sternriter than on elite.
to be fair kenpachi was kinda in outer space before this moment
Maybe this video is long enough already but i think you could've gone briefly into what they did in CFYOW even if its dubiously canon at this point. I feel like that would've been a better ad to draw people to the CFYOW summaries like giving a taster.
Maybe another video for them if they do more stuff in the anime and you can include the light novel stuff there.
I think even if giselle heals bambi she still ends up executed for her failure. Cang was healed from the vollstandig and BG9 was recovering himself but they still got executed. So zombifying her was the only way.
I like all the Bambi girls but I wish their backstories were explored. Seriously these girls should get a spin off.
They were in the 6th(or 5th prob I forgot) Cfyow part which is cannon where they join tier, Nel, and grimjow + some random arrancars fight a Black Trans ichigo Candice and meni were captured by mayuri though.
OH. I haven't read the manga since it came out, but makes soo much more sense why all the NSFW art draws Giselle with a dong.
r34 of giselle is a bless
That "she longs for the void" line killed me lmao
Meninas is my personal favorite. I never got to know her as a character until the Thousand Year Blood War anime since I never read the manga, but I like the way she looks. I would argue that she is the bustiest of the Bambis, and perhaps hotter than Candice.
zombie was op!
Meninas is definitely a character that was just sort of "there" in the manga, but I think she's my favorite of the Bambies and one of the best of all Sternritter in the anime specifically. The cross between a weight lifter and a baton twirler with her enhanced Volstandig is inspired.
Thank you. As an anime-only viewer.
Candice is my favorite⚡️💚
Good taste! 👑
Candice nuts
Reading again the manga I had the impression that Gigi actually could've "slept" with Bambi zombie. Because it matches the moment when Yumichika said she smells like semen. Maybe that's what Bambieta keeps asking Gigi. She could be a ninfomaníac even as a zombie. I don't know. But I thought it was interesting.
this would almost work but kubo actually confirmed on klub outside that she is biologically a male
@@bynosaurus4024 Exactly, that's why she was smelling semen. She had a sex relation with Bambi. It could be oral or regular sex. Not even regular men smell of semen if they haven't had sex.
@@bynosaurus4024So Giselle nutted on the sight of Bambeitta's corpse or something? Why else would Yumichika smelled semen on her
@@bynosaurus4024 doesn't make sense to me how you can smell semen from a guy normally....if giselle did the deed recently however, its another story.
@@bynosaurus4024 in japan gender and sex mean the same
Kubo meant that he is fully a man. he didnt say Giselle is "a woman deep inside" (which is a better description to a trans people in japanese)
They Survived in a side book, they work for Mayuri to earn their freedome.
I forgot how much back stabbing there is in this story. Giselle is one thing but I forgot bazz-b sniping them.
If you think about it, Giselle did her a kindness. If Giselle had healed her instead of turning her, then she'd be taken and executed by hashbrown for failure, like Cang and BG-9.
Hasbrown oh my god...I. stealing that 😂
Nah bro bambi literally begged Giselle not to.
The girlritters were neat but I really wish that they came to rescue bambi and got caught by shinjis bankai. give him a real W for once.
30:17 one of these is not like the other, one of these... commits crimes against humanity.
Ah yes Bambie squad
5 people in paper
6 actual show up
Kenpachi was already at Death's Door. Sure they 'Destroyed' him but it wasn't in a Fair way.
"Admittedly though i still don't know why Giselle didn't just heal Bambiettta rather than kill her."
Because like you said: If she were alive after her mistake of winning, no matter what condition she would be in (You yourself point out Cang Du seems mostly fine after breaking out of Toshiro's ice), she'd then be collected by Uryuu for execution.
I came here only because I saw editing Yhe Bambies of either being The Winx Enchantix or Sailor Moon like it actually fits!! 🥹
3:47 Given BG9 indicated he could repair his damaged body himself, Gigi healing Bambi likely wouldn't have changed Uryu coming for her. The failure matters more than the damage I think.
I don't think Giselle dreams of void or something censored. The joke is that she acts all excited at the perspective of a reward but empty headed as she is, she does not even know what to wish for.
Isn’t Giselle a dude?
Yes. It’s disturbing how we need to ‘respect the identity’ of an utter amoral psychopath, the playing as a woman clearly fits into the weird fetish he has but no we need to respect it.
Yumichika knows giselle is male because he smells ‘like semen’ - giselle is getting off on what he’s doing. This is a fetish.
Is giselle representative of trans people? No…? Why would anyone think that. Giselle is just a freaky psycho, quite simple honestly no respecting required.
@@tragiic333 I do not want to start a gender/sexe distinction and transgenderism discussion. But he/she is probably a biological male identifying as a female. So, I feel ok with using whichever pronoun.
@@tragiic333a trans woman, so, not a dude
@@leonie_gata_de_outono except thats not how it works. a person can deeply feel they are a dog and wear a furry suit. doesnt make em a dog. this concept of "belief makes it so" for gender comes from John Money and Volkmar Siguch
Giselle is confirmed to be a male who crossdresses cause he enjoys it sexually, thats "autoginephilia"
I'd rather have Kyoraku fight them instead of Ichigo. And can we just appreciate how calm and collective Ichigo was in the 4 vs 1.
Or a Fullbringer
This was surprising seeing a video on the Sternritter Girls. I just started on the banner in Brave Souls and got 3 Bambietta and 2 Candice. Also can we get a hashtag “Justice for Ebern” going?
Good afternoon. I'm fan of bleach and Bambie's. Everyone have great day and next day and week and weekend and next week and full happiness😊😊😊😊😊. Great video and keep make great videos.
It would be nice if they somehow managed to fit in Liltotto's mini-backstory (though I think it was just one small meeting) with Gremmy somewhere later in the anime. It would help to give some of the Sternritters a bit more backstory, and might add some nice depth to her feelings towards Yhwach when she eventually goes to confront him.
Also, always thought it was weird that Liltotto and Giselle attempted to fight Yhwach by themselves without much of a plan, knowing what they know about how strong he is. Thinking about it, if the anime includes the Glutton's ability to steal powers, then that plus the Zombie could be kind of a powerhouse combination. I wonder if we might actually see what happens in that fight - I could see them fitting it and the Bazz B/Haschwalth stuff in one episode.
The thing with Bambietta having least powers compared to other bambis and her being their leader is quite interesting. Her power was so devastating that in the beginning others weren't able to surpass her. She was kind of like Kenpachi, strong from the beginning, so she stagnated when other Bambis were working to surpass her. That's why they don't respect her anymore, because they feel they surpassed her and they are probably right. But if she really worked on her power she would reach Shutztoffel level I guess
Giselle needed back some of her blood from Zombietta, likely when Zombie Kensei stabbed her.
My favorite from bambies is Meninas Mcallon
You could say Bambietta has a pretty explosive personality
Correction destroyed the weaken Kenpachi. If he was at full strength, he would rip these hoes a new one.
Honestly,Liltoto's physical and personality traits make me think of a female version of Shinji
I like all of them, but I think Liltotto is the most fun.
Tommo it’s crazy how these ladies are still around even after the war is over! Since they do show up in the novels later on.
Bambi’s holy form was probably called explosion of god.
Being bambietta is suffering!
Honestly these girls were all the most unique Quincy in this whole final arc and it’s super shocking because I think a lot of us didn’t expect them to become fan favorites so damn quickly.
In a way meninas feels like orihime if she was Quincy while Candice reminds me a lot of grimmjow.
Main reason they're probably still alive is that Kubo can't seem to kill of female characters unless in flashbacks.
You get a W for being the first bleach content on Giselle that gets it right.
She’s my fav character and I hate the slander she gets 🖤
What slander exactly?
@@tragiic333 probably "excuse me bidgott and tansophobus, shes a lady!"
Alot of lying is going on on twitter, saying "Kubo confirmed shes trans!" when in reality Kubo said Giselle is a crossdressing man who gets satisfaction from it. they are called "autoginephiliacs"
Same drama as Bridget where the creator had to backtrack 10 years of story and rewrite everything in order to please the queer community.. making grooming out to be a good thing. he did this after getting pipebombs sent to his mail, and now is rumored to be regretting his submission to these people
@@DarkMark-cf1ec ACTUALLY BASED ON OLDER TRIVIA SHOWS IT MORE LIKELY IT IS TRANSWOMAN!
THE TRIVIA IN MANGA RELEASE MENTIONED PHYSICALLY MALE WORDING aka SEX OF GISELLE!
Am I the only one that thinks of Halibel and the Tres Bestia when I see the Bambies……..the way they interact reminds me of them
Basically the Quincy version of them
Excellent video as usual. Ty for your work
Some of them I get why people would like them. But Gisele and Bambi are two of the single least likeable if not outright evil characters in bleach. Yes in my opinion at least these two are more evil than aizen. With aizen he had an understandable motivation (ambition) but horrid methods. But with these two? Bambi is just cruel and sadistic in that she gets off on seducing people just to kill them and Gisele is just... evil. Seriously not only do they belong on a registry for assaulting who was supposed to be her best friend but she then killed her then brought her back to torture her further and to get off on their control of said "friend". Giselle more than likely just brought her back just to be her meat shield and sex doll given their obsession for her and disregard for her well being. Under normal circumstances I'd say that Bambi deserved to die and that it was karma, plain and simple. But nobody deserves... THIS! I wouldn't call Giselle a sadist because that doesn't do it justice they were just evil for the sake of being evil. I'll never understand the appeal of characters like this.
Ditto!!
@@truthspreader1996 worst part is that even though I despise Kurosutchi because I hate people who get off on hurting and treating people like crap, I found myself once again hoping that he'll give someone what they deserve...again I don't agree with how he chose to do it but I can at least say that he not only gave Giselle their just desserts but also at least saved a few people from having to exist as puppets and/or toys. Was he a douche about it?...Of course he was. Did I want to sock him for how he went about it? When do I not? But at least he... kind of cared (if you could call it that) enough to save some of the victims. And let's face it as much as I loath the snake he is pretty based from time to time and is an all together interesting character with depth and layers to him. There is a reason for most everything he does. Do I agree with those reasons?... No. But at least there's rhyme and reason to his motives as opposed to Gissele and Bambietta who just seem to be vile for the sake of being vile.
They didn't destroy Kenpachi, he was literally fried and internally liquified from being in space. What the hell are you on about.
They took the advantage and attacked him when he pretty well couldn't fight back.
I don't know what you were watching, maybe some Kenpachi fanfiction, but in the anime, Zaraki got destroyed, regardless of the reason.
@@-------....___ Destroyed would imply he could fight back. Ichigo man character simps go hard.
I always give you a Videos a thumbs up before I even watch it. Keep up the good work love the channel.
it’s a good day when mr tommo drops a video
