A fantastic Easter egg

At the original end Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War Part 3 Can be found above for ease of reference. The first image seen at the end is Yowatch's Welt to the left of the Ruined Seireiti, complete with a blood-red sky, shown on the other side as if they were standing back. This is a reference to the fact that the Wandenrecht were hiding in the shadows of Soul Society, but after the attack, their existence has come to light, so Welt is on the sunny side of the image and Soul Society is on the dark side.

As Suisoh's vocals kick in, the image shifts to Yowatch, post the activation of the Almighty, which almost gives the impression that we should associate what is being said with him. After Yowatch, we get similar close-ups of Uryu and then Ichigo before we see fragments of the shattered crystal – which once imprisoned the Spirit King. Some are tinged with an amber color while others are tinged with light blue, set against the backdrop of a strange staircase separating Ichigo and Uryuu, which replaces the crystal shards that belong to them. Uryū faces to the left, where the welt was, while Ichigo faces to the right.

I will continue to search for an answer to an unsolved thesis, making choices until I die

Then I remember where we came from, and a life that could never interact

No one is allowed to use the scale

Because it breaks in an instant

So, what can I measure myself against?

Instead, I hold onto your words that give meaning to your heart

The sequence begins with a montage of still images of the other characters, starting with Captain-Commander Kyoraku and his lieutenant, Nanao Ise, panning over the disturbed backdrop of the Seireitei as more Gotei 13 officers appear, each in various poses from their throw. Battle, including Nemu Kurotsuchi, Mayuri, Byakuya, Renji, Kenpachi, Rukia.

Sternritter A – Anti

Event reversal on the fate-change scale

You're probably wondering when Uryū's nickname was revealed in the anime. It wasn't. In the anime, we've seen Uryū use the associated ability several times before, most notably in the first episode of Part 3, titled “A”, when Uryū managed to rid himself of Shutara Senjumaru's fate-sealing ability. Bankai and kill him immediately where other members of the Schutzstaffel were killed. Uryu Ishida Sternritter is A – The Antithesis, and the Schrift's ability is similar to Jugram Haschwalth's B – The Balance in that it deals with event or concept reversal, but according to Yhwach, this Schrift rivals the future-altering, omnipotence of the Almighty. .

Antithesis allows Yuryu to reverse events between the two targets, such as how he enabled Yōwatch to escape from Kiryo Hikifune's life cage by swapping the Quincy King with the Quincy Medal he threw from the cage, or how he wrapped Senjumaru inside himself. The Fabric of Fate, or, How He Reversed the Relationship Between the Different Parts of the End Sequence, Making What Came Before Later and Reversed.

If Uryu has suffered a large amount of damage from an enemy, he can switch the event (injury inflicted by the enemy) between the targets (himself and the enemy), but it is important that he must switch between the targets to reverse the event. Each other by that event. So, as powerful as the ability is, he cannot injure himself and transmit those wounds to his enemies. The flashback sequence illustrates the concept behind Uryu's script, and interestingly, the part of the sequence where Ichigo, Yuryu, and Yowatch open their eyes also depicts Yowatch's belief that it can undo the Almighty, as the reverse goes to Yowatch. Closing his eyes once more, a metaphor for returning to the kingdom preceded his awakening. Soul King's Crystal can also be seen repairing itself in the “True World” version of the ending theme.
