Description:
|
Genre: Action/Drama/Comedy
Creator: Tite Kubo
Number of Volumes: 21+
Number of Episodes: 77+
Status: Incomplete
Overview:
Kurosaki Ichigo is a 15 year old high school student who has the ability to see ghosts. His troubles start to occur after a hollow (an evil spirit) attacks his family. During this incident, Ichigo runs into Kuchiki Rukia, a shinigami (death god). Rukia is severely injured while protecting Ichigo from the Hollow, and decides to give half of her shinigami powers to Ichigo. This gives him the opportunity to face the Hollow in an equal battle. The outcome of the fight – Ichigo defeats the Hollow with a single sword strike.
"The strength of Ichigo’s spirit caused him to fully absorb Rukia’s powers rather than taking half, leaving her trapped in a Giggai – an artificial human body" – derived from Wikipedia. Ichigo has no choice but to take over her role as a shinigami while she recovers her abilities, but the outcome was unexpected…
Personal Opinion:
The first 30 or so episodes of Bleach were ok – funny, entertaining, but not such a thriller as I had anticipated. However, after those 30 or so episodes, I become attached to the anime. The action really sets in and it became so addictive, I just couldn’t stop wanting more. The animation’s superb and the soundtrack’s great as well. Bleach has a really great storyline, and the twists in later episodes are really gripping.
The only downside, once again, would be the filler episodes. However, they're not part of the original storyline, so… no need to mention them! Bleach is a must for those who are into action packed anime with comedy and slight romance.
Rating: 9/10

Cons:

First season or so is rather boring and average as far as animes go, its also plagued with filler.
|

As was mentioned in the review the first 20-30 episodes really arn't anything special. Its more of an increadibly long character intro. You get a feel of how the characters interact and a few things of what they can do. Which helps since after episode 20 or so one of the main characters is taken to a prison cell and really isn't seen that much until she is rescued some 20 episodes later.
BUT! During that time(after episode 20 or so, and she is in prison) the story and plot become increadible. This anime just takes off. The story is so entertaining that you start to hate every day but the day a new episode is aired. Awesome fighting, hilarious encounters, interesting(but uplifting) music, character interaction, and betrayal all make this "arc" of the anime a must watch for anyone that enjoys a good action anime. Its a feel good anime that keeps you on the edge of your seat for a good 20 episodes or more.
However, all good things must come to an end. Let the filler begin. Though I will say the filler isn't as bad as Naruto or some others that I have seen. They keep it entertaining enough to keep watching at least, and have actually ended the fill and started up another "arc" with more of a story line. But... I can't see it living up to what the anime has already acomplished. We will have to see how it continues.

When I watched first episode I thought it was really boring. But, don't know why, I kept on watching and so I reached 75 episode and I'm watching it till today. After first season (I agree it was yhe worst) it start to be really breathtaking. I love it, and I think it's very funny and ideal as a good entertainment.

bleach is a fantastic show with very good characters,it has a lot of good material and all in all it is something that makes you want to stay up late to wach a seconed time.one of my favorite aspects is that the hero goes into deep thought with his rival and doesn't take anyone's crap.
