The Worst Bleach Character: A Critique of Mayuri Kurotsuchi

Mayuri is my least favorite character in all of Bleach. Not just due to his detestable personality, but also because of how he is handled and framed in the narrative, which to me ruins the message of the story as a whole. I don’t see this discussed in the community much so I’d like to make Bleach readers at least a little bit more critical through this video. Let's discuss the interesting yet problematic Mayuri Kurotsuchi! The Mayuri Problem. This video discusses the Soul Society arc, Arrancar arc, Fullbring arc, the Thousand Year Blood War arc all the way to the end of the series, and past that to the Hell arc.
