Here is everything you need to know about the five Bleach filler Arc (in chronological order).

The Bount Arc: Episodes 64-91

Urahara’s secret mod souls encounter Ichigo, Chad, Renji, and Orihime. At this point, they are destined to be enemies and treated as such. Later, however, it becomes clear that Kisuke invented Noba, Kurodo, and Ririn to identify certain entities known as Bounts. These entities are ordinary people who can imbibe innocent spirits and obtain immortality.

Soon after, Utagawa Ryo kidnaps Ishida Uryu, but the villain’s plan is foiled by Yoshino when the latter changes his allegiance. The Seiretei hierarchy is rather anxious about the Bounts, while Team Ichigo meets the chief antagonist, Jin Kariya. He goes on to kill Yoshino, mounting a large-scale attack against his Shinigami opponents and then returning to his hide-out, where a portal exists to access the Seireitei directly.

Thankfully, Ichigo Kurosaki’s Tensa Zangetsu helps maintain the power balance between him and Kariya. Uryu subsequently ends the battle by allowing the Bounts through the portal in the Bount arc’s final episode, “Shinigami and Quincy, the Reviving Power.”

The Bount Assault On Soul Society Arc: Episodes 92-109

Uryu’s plan to defeat the Bounts in Soul Society almost seems like a failure. Since the villains can extract Reishi from various aspects of the environment. The Bounts cannot bypass the security separating the Rukongai and the Seireitei districts. The Bounts finally break in after conscripting a group of powerful combatants and receiving help from a Squad Eleven spy named Ichinose Maki.

In Episode 98, “Clash! Kenpachi Zaraki vs. Ichinose Maki,” the Squad Eleven Captain battles and defeats his turncoat subordinate. Of course, Kariya informs his new “allies” that their services are useless now that their job is done, adding injury to insult by taking them down.

Captain-Commander Yamamoto Genryusai finally takes action, ordering his subordinates to spread across the Seireitei and inactivate the Jokaisho “bombs” concealed deep below the surface. The concluding fight between Ichigo Kurosaki and Jin Kariya takes place in “The Wailing Bount! The Last Clash” and ends with the villain slowly disappearing into the air.

The Zanpakuto Unknown Tales Arc: Episodes 230-265

The Zanpakuto Unknown Tales arc revolves around a rogue Zanpakuto spirit named Muramasa. This villain seeks independence from the Shinigami. As such, Muramasa breaks the bonds between nearly all the Shinigami and their Zanpakuto.

At first, it seems like Muramasa has captured the Captain-Commander within an unbreakable force field. Yamamoto has been maintaining the shield to prevent Ryujin Jakka from being stolen. Muramasa traps all the Captains and their Zanpakutos within the blazing inferno before initiating the final stage of his plan.

He frees his original real owner, Kuchiki Kouga, after decades of imprisonment. Kouga retaliates against Muramasa, spouting some random nonsense about being betrayed by his Zanpakuto. Ichigo Kurosaki arrives in time, but the Zanpakuto spirit somehow transports both of them into his former Shinigami’s “inner world.”
