Notes for nerds
Per-episode chapters come from the "chapters" field of each Bleach Wiki episode page; filler status combines missing chapter data with animefillerlist.com. When an episode lists scattered flashback chapters, only its main contiguous block of chapters is given (Thousand-Year Blood War episodes reorder material heavily, e.g. TYBW ep 14 also uses ch 565, ep 40 jumps to ch 674). Turn Back the Pendulum (episodes 206-212) uses the manga's negative chapter numbers (-108 to -97). Episodes 46, 109 and 227 are marked filler although they use bits of special chapters (227 adapts the one-shot chapter 0.8). TYBW episode numbers are the 1-50 numbering used by the streaming release; the original series numbering (1-366) continues as 367+ in the title text. Part 4 is airing: only episodes 41-48 are mapped.
