 Great anime with non-stop action & laughsNov 14, 2009
When I first viewed Bleach I was kinda skeptical, however; After viewing the first 7 episodes I was hooked. Its nonstop action, supernatural element, and humor really grew on me. Bleach is about a high school student named Ichigo with a sort of sixth sense, enabling him to see and speak to the deceased. While thats all fine and dandy, labeling him somewhat of a psychic, the real ordeal begins with his encounter with a shinigami named Rukia. The first 20 or so episodes are mainly character and plot development leading to what is deemed as the soul society story arc. Bleach without a doubt has some of the most interesting characters that you'll either love or hate. Its humor is top notch and fits within the right moments and moods. With that said, this series isn't without its downside, let me explain:
First: the recaps at the beginning of every episode is way too long. Giving you that feeling that a huge chunk of valuable minutes per episodes has been used on recaps alone, kinda makes you wonder if the creators really believe that its audience is in a constant state of amnesia.
Second: As the series progresses, mainly during the Hueco Mundo story arc, you'll notice that the flow of the story is abruptly disrupted to introduce its viewer to the series unrelated (story wise) fillers, this is quite annoying. While the fillers themselves are not bad (unlike Naruto), the way they are implemented into the series itself is the problem.
Third: This series seem to suffer from what I call the GI JOE syndrome (Talking about the 80's cartoon series), which means that as many slashing and critical blows dealt, none seem to die, with the exception of villians & non-essential characters of course. You could probably play this off as, "Well it is an anime." or "They are shinigami's." Yet at key moments, which I deem heart felt moments, the emotional impact loses its meaning or credibility.
Despite those flaws, it's still a great anime with some great characters. Unlike this series counterpart, Naruto, the fillers themselves are well done and well written. This series plot, its enemies, its heroes, its side characters, and its comedy are all well done and blend together to make it a wonderful viewing experience. Its not for everyone, but a good choice for any anime fan to add to their collection.
 Bleach Seasons 1, 2 and 3 = A great story arcNov 01, 2009
I was looking around for a good anime and was asking friends what was good. They said either Full Metal Alchemist or Bleach. I researched both and came to a decision to look into Bleach due to the supernatural and samurai fantasy fiction I like, plus the plot and imagination is just astounding. Pretty much, my friends were right about Bleach.
Seeing Im able to do only one review, Im going to include the other 2 seasons of Bleach as well. Warning: I am just giving you a one sentence summary for each season, so read ahead at your own risk.
The first season is amazing and shows pretty much what the show is about.The second season shows Ichigo and his friends arriving in the spirit realm on the way to rescue Rukia from the Soul Society and fight the Soul Reaper captains along the way. And finally, season 3 draws down to who ordered the execution of Rukia, which will be a twist you will not believe; as well as the amazing fights that Ichigo will have as well some of the Soul Reaper Captains.
The way I see it, each episode I watched, the show was getting better each disc. Bleach is one of those animes that gets better each time you watch a new episode, to be honest; it is very rare to find a good show that gets you interested these days. I bought it on trust and instinct, and both of those turned out to be good. I highly recommend this anime for anyone just starting out or beginning to discover anime. Besides, all the Bleach dvds are original and uncut, do not waste time buying the separate little discs; get it all in the box sets on Amazon for cheap.
Good actions and fightingsOct 18, 2009
Man that was sweet so many hollow killed and many human saved. I like the part where Ichigo fought against the Menos Grande
Bleach is a GREAT Anime!Oct 07, 2009
Bleach is a amazing anime! I have watched all the episodes out so far In the English Dub (153 episodes with more episodes to come) and in the Japanese Sub (240 episodes with more to come) and its just AMAZING! Sinse Amazon already tells you what Bleach is about in the desription, I'm just gonna get right to the point and talk about the box set.
When I got my box set in the mail it came in great condition and their were no scratches on the discs either. The boxset cover has Ichigo Kurosaki and Rukia Kuchiki on the front and on the back it tells you what Bleach is about and what you will expect in the first season. Their are 5 discs with 4 episodes on each disc and it even comes with a douple sided Ichigo poster and on the back of the poster has Bleach character production art inside too. This boxset is made a little different then other anime boxsets, you have to open the Bleach boxset kinda like a book to look at the discs unlike some other anime boxsets that have you unfold it to see the discs and such. Personally, i like how the Bleach boxsets are made better then how other anime boxsets are made. ANYWAYS....If you don't like the English Audio and prefer the Japanese version with subtitles you can always go to "Set Up" on the Main Menu of whatever Bleach disc you are on and change the language, I like the Japanese version and the English version but when it comes to which one i like better i would have to say that i like the Japanese version better but i still very much like the English version too. The subtitles they use for the Japanese version for the boxset are kinda similar to how the English cast people talk BUT the subtitles are still different then it though! i just said that they are KINDA similar, The subtitles are very seeable and easy to read also.
There is also special features like "Behind the scenes from Bleach", Production Art, and the Bleach Ending with no credits in it. The boxset all together is approximetley 460 minutes. If you are a Bleach fan or anime fan PLEASE give Bleach a try!! i'm sure you would like it, especially if u like shonen anime!!!
Excellent Anime. Better than watching it in poor quality onlineSep 30, 2009
Excellent Anime and Ive watched every episode out online on Anime websites even to the point of reading the subs on the 200+ episodes out. The Video Quality difference is so huge you would just have to see it to believe it.
