I think it's about time we got a general Bleach topic going in this Anime Forum.

Anyway, I've been watching Bleach ever since episode 1 was released months ago and I haven't stop watching the series yet. Call me a fanboy of the series, I could careless. I think this series is awesome. Has a great cast of characters, great plot and cool music. I know many people won't agree with me on the music, but meh, whatever.

For those that haven't seen the series yet. The story is led by Ichigo Kurosaki, who meets a Soul Reaper name Rukia Kuchiki when she appears to save Ichigo's family from a Hollow. For some reason, Ichigo could see her. No normal human should be able to see a Soul Reaper, but Ichigo could, Ichigo was different. I could go on more, but we all know what the story is about. I don't expect people that haven't seen the series to post or view this topic.

Bleach is up to episode 27. I'm about to watch it. I'll give my opinion on 27 after I'm finished watching it.

I think that this is an awesome series.The characters, plot and music are really good.I fell in love with the music the first time i heard it especially, Asterisk, Thank you and the new OP D-technolive.

I've also read the manga, awesomeness..can't wait to watch the anime^__^
By looking at the new OP, i would expect some episode fillers..i hope this would just make the series even better ^^

anyways, i've yet to watch episode 27, will comment on it later

Ah, I have slacked on the episodes ever since I caught up in the manga. I should be downloading episode 26 and 27 later on tonight. So until then, Ive got to say that the anime series is okay, nothing too exciting as of yet but nothing too disturbing either.. [Except for that 'bwahahahah' thing, that was just freaky]

- Anywhoo, Manga rocks. Go read

...I haven't seen the anime, but I'm quite hooked on the manga. ...It rocks! This was the only manga that I bother downloading the raws too...^^;

I been watching the series laterly and I think it's great. It's funny to see a mixture of humor and action at the same time. At the moment I'm trying to find episode 27 to download. Anyone know where I can find it?


L-O-L

Rukia's drawings too

EDIT: oops didn't know episode 27 was there XD

Great anime, I've been watching it since last week until epsiode 26, then I started searching for episode 27 since last night. Luckily this topic was made else it would of took me longer. I'm currently downloading 27 now so I haven't watched it yet.

I love the music to the show and the style of it. the plots great and it keeps you watching ...no dull moments at all.

Good series. =) I'm really impressed it's going on passed episode 27. =) Like Eva, I downloaded it on the first day of it's released. That and I heard about it from Dark. =) I loved it from the start. So far all the eps are on tape. =D I can watch them over and over again. ^.^p

Heh. Episode 27 was really funny. That bald headed guy really had me laughing. I hope they show more of him. LOL.

Crap, I really must find a way to get this anime =/ ...all I've got is the manga ^^; ...btw, chp.175 + text translation is out! The plot is finally revealed...

i just read it too...one of the best chapter i think..though the quality was really terrible but oh well..>.<
in this chapter, many things cleared up..but more questions arised..now i can't wait for the next chapter..x_x

Yes, the animation changes every week for the ending is awesome. You know I ripped that image of Gin from this week ending animation. I'll rip some Renji images for you later on when I'm not feeling lazy for you, Specter. That is a pretty neat thing they're doing with Bleach ending.

If you're smart, stick with Lunar. The video quality of Lunar release are much better than the other group that release Bleach as soon as possible.

I wonder which Captain and Vice-Captain will be feature next week. I want to see Yachiru and Kenpachi.

Yeah i'm downloading ep27 too. so does anyone know how many total eps there are.!!!???

@Tidyun:

It's still ongoing.

...anyway...I wonder what'll happen on chp.176 @_@ We want answers...NOW!! XD ...it's just cliffhanger after cliffhanger.

Which bothers me. =/ I don't want it to go over board like Naruto has. As in meaning draging on. I love the series, but I don't want to see that happen. =x The endin' is awesome. Gin's smile is something else. =) I'd rip it, but there is a problem the ending all the texting in there is annoying. =/

I like bleach too. I'm glad they are actually kicking into action now. I started watching it around Ep 9 came out. (I watched 1-9 then)
I like everything about it. I can't wait for it next week.

I'm patient enough to wait for DVD rips. We'll get them sooner or later, because the first DVD recently came out, no? R2, I mean.

Anyways, Yeah, I want more. XD
Everyone who is interested, SLIGHTLY, should watch it.

Yeah the cliff-hangers are pretty annoying. And the thing is that we have to wait for the next episode to download it . What the ending your all talking about? Is it the actual ending or just the ending of each episode?



Hehe, I just had to post this

Episode 26 introduce a new ending with a new song and animation of 6th Division Captain and Vice-Captain. In episode 27, same music, but different animation that's now featuring 3rd Division Captain and Vice-Captain. In episode 28, the animation will change again to another division captains and vice-captains.

Bleach new OP/ED set kicks serious ass.

The story in Soul Society will be a _very_ long one. It's like a neverending stream of "fight, lose, powerup, fight, win, next enemy, fight, lose... blah blah" though.

Needs more Kon! >:E

Just watched the new Bleach this week. Just another standard episode to move the season along. Ishida showing some random Shinigami how powerful he is by totally owning him in a bad way. Ganju continue to run away from the 11th 5th most powerful Shinigami. He's nobody, so I tend not to remember that Shinigami's name. You almost get a small introduction to Mayuri, the 12th Division Captain and his vice-captain Nemu. Those two will probably be feature in next week ending.

I think the ending are in order of which division you met. You met the 6th Division first, then the 3rd, then 11th and now the 12th, so I think this pattern will continue with next week ending animation. I got some got pictures to rip from this week episode ending. Just need to wait for Lunar release since their quality is much better than the speed sub.

Yeah, I must say though, It was a nice episode. Its great to finally see Ishida kick ass instead of be comic relief, like he has been for the past 293485329475 episodes.

I can't wait to see Sado kick some heavy ass. >=D. Although, I'm liking all the shinigami more and more, I want to see more of the captians/vice captians. Mayiru looks the most interesting. As well as the blind dude.

Just finished watching episode 28. It was a good episode just leading things on. Ishida sure does kick ass, love his Shinigami. It was too bad with inoue though I really wanted to see her kick some ass.

Looking forward for sado to do some butt kicking. The next episode should be funny ^^

Haha. You guys/gals are fast. =P I haven't seen it yet, but I got the episode lastnight. No time to watch it. But from readin' all those the stuff you guys are sayin' makes me wanna check it out. =x Hopefully another cool character will appear so I can rip and make sigs outta him/her. =P

On a site note that "To Be Continue.." is just a tease. =/

I watch episode 28 the other day, didn't have time to reply. Anyways it was pretty funny watching Ichigo lifting all those death gods and saying "get off me so I can run" XD. And him giving away is position .

As for Ishida, man he looks so much cooler in this episode .

Umm....which episode did Renji and Byakuya first appear to capture Rukia? ..because if I'm gonna donwload the anime, I'd rather start at the soul-society arc ^^; .

Anyway, for the manga readers out there, chp. 176 is out...Man, I hope no one dies too soon...=(

Renji and Byakuya first appeared in episode 16 to capture Rukia

just read Chapter 176...the quality is not that good, so there's still some parts where i still don't understand what happened..x_x
but overall, it's good especially the last part

oh and the next chapter is only gonna be out in 2 weeks time..can't wait..>.<

GYAH HA HA HA.
Wow, the latest ep was pretty sweet stuff.

I enjoyed every last bit of it. Expecially this character, The captian? I forget his name, but he's in EVa's sig.

He is the sweetest out of all of them.
"Come on, Retard". How he insults everyone, this dude is pretty sweet.
And Kenpachi, hahaha. His moments with the pink haired girl are funny, and awesome.

Just watching the latest of episode of bleach, I must say this is getting better and better by the second.

How ichigo and gajun met XD
their faces were hilarious. Ishida's one of my favourite character's now he's empowered alot since the last time he fought.

Can't wait for next weeks

I finally got around to watching this, the series is pretty damn good. Keeps getting better over time, I honestly didn't see any of this happening when I started the series. Here is to next weeks episode.

Havn't posted around this place in a long time eh.

yep yep, saw the latest episode quite some time ago..took me long enough to post here..^^;;

anyways, yeah this episode is great, i love almost every single bit of it especially the scenes of Zaraki and Yachiru looking for the ryokas..xD
oh and the scene where Inoue just keeps blabbering alot..^^;;

hehe, can't wait for the next episode

lol lately i've watched episode 29 and i realised like in the last couple of episodes you don't see much of Chad and i thought it was weird but now he finaly pops up out of no-where and i thought that he's got to be the smartest character out of everyone cause he's not getting himself caught by all the Death gods running loony around the place.

It is damn long. It's nearly 180 chapters in manga, and Ichigo and co. hadn't even finished their Soul Society mission...

It does get very interesting though, but IMO it's been far too long... and probably won't end until 200+

Heh, I'm gonna wait til I can get some decent shots of Renji, and whore him around for a couple months. I still gotta use Lems baiken sig x_X;

Anyways, The series is getting real good. Since Evar spoiled the manga for me, I'm gonna read that instead of just waiting. But the anime is still teh win. I just wish it had more Kon and Kisuke (urahara).

*sigh* Oh well. Its still got a kickass collection of characters, I can't wait til the series starts moving. :3

Episode 30 is out already? That's something to look forward to this week.



True. I miss Kon.

Heh, The new episode was awesome. Although, I suspect a Naruto Complex soon enough.

Still, Anything with renji is awesome, and next week, one of my fav. characters gets development (seemingly pointless development at that).

to anyone who isn't, watch bleach.

Disgusting! Bleach is having it's first filler episode. Geez, a bad one at that. They should have an episode covering Gin's and many of the other captains' and vice-captains' past, like they did with that special manga chapter. At least it won't be so pointless as this filler episode, but meh, big series like to fire pointless filler episodes at us, as usual.

Anyway, Bleach OST is out. So, go out and download it or buy it.

Also, I should say something about this week episode, which was in the manga for you anime only watchers. It will play a role in the future episodes of the series. Shows reasons behide Renji's action and feelings now and in the future episode towards Rukia. It was a pretty dull episode this week. With the ending I wanted, but terrible pictures of the 9th Division.

Hehe, I downloaded most of the OST along with the opening and ending music too ^^;;

Anyways I would read the manga but... can't be bothered lol. I'll just keep with the anime.


So erm did they cut stuff out then?

No. They just move the fights along, I guess? They didn't stall by adding pointless sword to sword contact over and over again. If you watch Naruto, those fights were so dragged out. Though, I can't make the anime to manga comparison in Naruto, because I haven't read the Naruto manga yet.

Wow, I didn't know that was a filler. but, I hope they do go into something anything with the captians and Vice-Captians. I wanna know whats up with Rukia's captian. I'm hooked to this and gget off my FFXI Reign of terror to watch this. Hope they show Ishida(My fave character whoopin some ass soon) (hopefully Ishida and Sado can take at least a vice captian seeing how easily Ishida defeated Kamataichi errr Jiroubu)

The new bleach made me want to tear my eyes out.
a really bad attempt at emulating the manga creators sense of humor.
REALLY Bad. I mean, it hurt just watching it.

Gah, and the ending sucked too.

Chapter 180 and Episode 34 are out.

Anime spoiler

Episode 34 is where Captain Aizen is killed. The anime is going to get very interesting from this point on, so get ready. Ichigo's party was the complete focus in the anime up to this point. You will get into the Gotei 13 members at this point. You will be seeing more of the captains and vice-captains of the Gotei 13.

End of Anime Spoiler

Manga Spoiler

Chapter 180 is covering the aftermath of Aizen, Tousen and Gin's betrayal of the Gotei 13. Pretty straight forward chapter with not much happening. Showing how everyone is dealing with the betrayal of the three former Gotie 13 captains. Again, the manga should be getting more interesting from this point. I can not wait!

End of Manga Spoiler

If you have no watch Bleach, then what are you waiting for?

Oh, if you have no watch the Bleach Omake yet, then do try to locate it and download it. All possible download are down for the Bleach Gotei 13 Omake, so I have yet to watch it. Also, if you watch it and you're an anime only watcher, then beware of spoilers.

UVERworld - D-technolife TORRENT =p

Found this on the lunar boards, nothing too special sounding. Probably as full as we'll ever see til July 7th.

Anyways, This version seems...err..inconsistent.

As for last weeks epi, Yes, yes, goodness. >_>
I want a new ep already.

This track is AWESOME! I love this track. Good boy, Specter. You did well to find this track.


You are on the right track with that theory. It will be explain a bit in the future episode about Ichigo's connection with the Hollows. Trust me, when you find it, it will be good. Nice theory made up by only watching the anime.

If you're a manga person or big enough fan of the series, like me, then check out the manga. Manga is still quite ahead of the anime.

anime Spoiler
.
not hat anyone cares
.
.

Watched eps 39. the ken fight was alright, not as flashy as it could of been. hoever it was good to see them show ken-chan fight like he acts nto caring if he takes a hit or twelve XD .gah I get tired of battle auras. but you still gotta love the show. ichigo looses (bleach >naruto) in that apsect.

ah... a new ending... what do you think of it?
I liked the previous one more. the song and the thing that they introduced new characters there each time.

I'm not very fond of the ending theme, but I always liked the current opening. I think it's bringing a unique and different feeling to the anime. And I like all opening themes that are like that. Reminds me of how I viewed Naruto back when it was still in the early stages.

This episode was pretty good. Especially the part where he got his sword back.
Though I didn't expect Ichigo to loose just like that. lol

lol. the latest episode was hilarious! When Ichigo saw Yoruichi

er.. I don't read manga, so it was a total surprise for me ^^;

Ichigo is naruto ichigo is naruto, annoyingly invincible, constantly gets more powerful in large leaps. but he does it in a way that you cant help but love, his introscene to break up the fight in this last eps just simply made me swoon, with the dragon wing and all.

yeah, Ichigo and Naruto are probably relatives
but what else should be expected from the Main Character.. =)

Well I would like to see non main charecters such as chad and sakura, win a fight that was to strong for the main charecter. or for ichigo to take more then 5 minutes to completely heal from a life threatining wound. =O i'm adding realism to anime.

..... By cat girl ;_;.....

Is anyone still keeping up with this? Hmm...maybe.
The recent episodes with Kurostchi and Ishida were quite..er...entertaining.

SPOILERS


Jesus Christ, Kurostchi is one cool sick #####. "It hurts...it hurts...my face feels like its melting" XD
Damn, and the way he was kicking around his subcaptian, not to mention his Soul Slayer is so damn cool.
I can't wait for the next episode <3

As for the manga...

SPOILERS

I had heard that Isshin is a shinigami. WTF!? I need to start reading it instead of summaries, honestly, I'm not understanding things behind that. XD And Kubo Tite is a god of foreshadowing.
