Cleaning up the afterlife ? one spirit at a time!Ichigo Kurosaki never asked for the ability to see ghosts - he was born with the gift. When his family is attacked by a Hollow, a malevolent lost soul, Ichigo becomes a Soul Reaper, dedicating his life to protecting the innocent and helping the tortured spirits themselves find peace. Find out why Tite Kubo's Bleach has become an international manga smash-hit! The race to save Rukia from the Soul Society is officially on, and Ichigo and company have come to their first roadblock, a very, very big roadblock. Jindanb?, the monstrous, fez-sporting gatekeeper hasn't let a single soul enter the Western Gate he guards in over 300 years, and he isn't about to change his mind about it just because Ichigo's crew wants to go through either. But, in a where-the-rubber-meets-the-road kind of way, Ichigo wasn't expecting his assault on the Soul Society to be a piece of cake either. After all, that'd just be boring. White Tower Rocks: Ichigo and Yoruichi race to save Ichigo's friends from Rukia's cold-blooded brother, Byakuya Kukichi. They arrive to find Ganju in tatters, and Rukia with him. Ichigo is bent on defeating her brother this time, but he is nowhere near prepared. Can he learn decades' worth of skill in just a matter of days? | | | Product Details: | | | Paperback:

 A Mist-ifying ChangeOct 28, 2006
By Oliver
"The Fart-full Dodger"
A good volume in a great series, it is nevertheless a victim of Viz's recent policy of censorship in their books. In the scene where Yuruichi changes into her true form, Viz added some smoke to the smoke ALREADY covering her "neckid bits". It's such a minor edit, which only makes it more baffling as to why they would even bother.
 Quick, accurate, and quite a dealFeb 05, 2011

Ichigo, Ganju, and... Hamtaro?Jun 26, 2007

Tite Kubo, Bleach: White Tower Rocks (ViZ, 2001)
Everyone's still scattered around the city, but Ichigo is closing in on the tower, and Ganju and Hanataro are already there, torn between rescuing an oddly reluctant Rukia and having to fight her brother, the captain of sixth company. We're fourteen volumes into this series, and a pretty fair stretch into a long, long plotline, and usually at this point a series (even a good one, e.g. Yuyu Hakusho towards the end of the Dark Tournament series) would start flagging. Bleach, though, has enough going on to keep it interesting. I keep getting more impressed with this series. Great stuff. ****
What? No one's reviewed this yet?Aug 28, 2006

Orihime and Uryu have managed to evade capture for quite some time since their battle with the underhanded Jirobo... of course, that might have something to do with their new duds. One wonders just how long the deception will last.
Mr.Yuruichi has saved Ichigo time and time again, but he has a secret... two of them... and large ones at that.
At the tower, with escape almost within reach, Byakuya is bearing down on Ganju's rescue party and it's highly doubtful that he will show mercy. It's up to the ailing Ukitake to play politics in order to save lives, but will his intervention be enough?
Elsewhere, The mad scientist (and captain of the 12th division) Kurotsuchi has his eye on a new subject, Orihime! Can Uryu save them both before they're turned into fresh meat for the 12th's captain to tinker with?
Lots and lots of drama in this book, with a minimal of fighting. Many side characters gain prominence and it is through their deeds and words (and inner monologues) that we gain greater insight into our heros and villains.
Art is par for the course, and it's wonderful to finally see Mr.Yoruichi's human form in American print. Pacing is brisk, moving from each of the disparate parties as action (and cliffhangers) dictates.
Pick it up!
