I never wasted my time with it, but... is it as bad as everyone makes it out to be?
It's good up to the Soul Society saga.
There's really no reason to watch it.
Bleach is like America. It started out all right, but got really shitty once the Mexicans invaded.
It is just fucking awful. The fights are painfully slow and drawn out because of the fucking exposition sickness the Japs seem to crave and nobody but the main character matters in the slightest.
It's fine, just avoid the filler at all costs. With a filler guide, I feel like it's worth watching.
>>143362006
It's like if LOST was a battle shonen.
>>143362006
The last arch in the series was badthe only good thing was he got to be with the girl again
You gotta watch it and find out yourself nigga, personally it's one of my favourites. I just get such a hard on when a character is about to get FUCKED then a bright light or something happens and someone is deflecting the sword and says something along the lines of "heh your not gonna die on my watch" *smirks*
It's just fun to watch.

>>143362006
It's great until after the rescue arc.
>>143363490
For all the shit people give bleach, it's way more enjoyable than naruto, one piece, or most other shonen
It may be retarded, but on enjoyment alone it is a 10/10
>>143362006
Yes, it was really good at the start, up until the end of the soul society arc it was 10/10.
But then the downward spiral began, every now and then something good comes out of it, but overall it just went to shit.

Made it about halfway through main arc 2 fueled on nostalgia before I realized it was shit, stopped watching it for a while, picked up a different shounen, realized how shit Bleach was, and dropped it completely
It's dangerous to go alone, take this
OP, don't bother with Bleach. You'd be wasting precious time and brain space that could otherwise go to reading Berserk or whatever else. You won't gain anything good from reading or watching it (maybe up until the Soul Society arc but by that time you'll just spiral down a hole of mediocrity like I did and have just recovered from.)
>>143362006
Its great. just miss out the filler. Its still shipping millions of manga today. Remember that youre asking the otaku hipsters of /a/

Watch it in dub
>>143362006
Bleach being "so bad" is a meme from nardo fans because of butthurt.
It's good.
Everyone was saying "Oh Bleach started nice then went to shit after Soul Society" but I decided to watch anyways this year.
First arc is awesome. Both girls are Best Girls, Chad is nice, the setting is awesome, the soundtrack is cool.
Then Soul Society comes up and it introduces a shit ton of uninteresting characters, all the fights are "no! i have yet another powerup!", the heaven-like Soul Society turns out to be shit, but it's still fun.
I haven't been able to keep up because the series apparently ramps up the bad things of Soul Society and completely abandons the good things it originally had.
Whoever decided to give that white-haired shota and the raging lesbian their own flashbacks episodes should be fired.
>>143367356
You must enjoy the asspulls, nonsensical fights and overpowered villains a lot then. It was good until condom Aizen came and fucked shit up
>>143367655
So you prefer predictability, predictable outcomes and weak villains?
>>143362006
It's worth it because of Rukia
>>143367711
Shonen babbies can comprehend actual foreshadowing,complex abilities and interesting villains.
They just want their MC to send the bad guy flying like team rocket and get it over with
>>143362006
Yes it really bad.
>>143367886
About as bad as your grammar.
>>143367711
Actually, predictable outcomes and the trends in Kubo's writings is why Bleach is such a turnoff.
>>143367356
whatever happened to making the rest?
>>143367711
>>143367859
But Yhwach does go over the line though.
>"I can not only see the future. I CAN CHANGE IT."
>>143367356
Too bad this stopped getting updated.
I would loveto see what the reaction to the current chapter would be
I feel sorry for anyone who waifu'd Unohana and Nemu.
>>143367859
>actual foreshadowing
does not make for good writing when that that only way you can justify how Kubo retrofits plots
>Complex abilities
you mean convenient powerlevels to the rescue
>interesting villains
the villains have no pathos whatsoever, there are no moral greys, nothing to challenge perceptions about what it means to fight on the other side. It's just "muh loyalty"
>>143368086
Good thing I have ahusbandowho's still alive
>>143367356
>this final arc is the best
>>143368150Kira?
>>143368187
Not quiet.Ishida
>>143362006
The only reason I haven't dropped Bleach is because I already spent too much time reading it.
Don't get me wrong, I like Bleach but god are there a lot of asspulls
>>143367711
No, I want intelligently planned out fights, outcomes that make sense and believably beatable but strong villains.
>>143368280
I just want it to end already
>>143367859
>foreshadowing
He mostly just fills in on subjects he barely even explained or elaborated on.
>complex abilities
You mean a clusterfuck of abilities.
>interesting villains
In what way? Like a "I wonder what bullshit they'll pull next." or "I am fascinated by this villain's motives/personality/powers/goals/contribution to the plot/relationship to x characters."?
>>143368363
Think it's already ended in some people's eyes and is now just going through the motions
>>143368386
the relationship building is piss
>>143368387
That's what Naruto fans went through. You will soon(if you haven't already) become numb to the "plot twists" and everything else that happens.
>>143362006
Most people who don't like it have either never seen it, or went into it viciously thinking they wouldn't like itor maybe it just isn't their thing.
Most people I've seen who like it 'round these parts seem to say "well it's bad, but it's enjoyable as fuck".
So if you have the time to sink into it, I'd say watch it.Or read it.The manga's better anyways
>>143368458
It's now just a spectacle but an amusing one, I'll give it that. I check in on Bleach every once in a while out of morbid curiousity.
"You smell like semen."
>Look how absolutely unbeatable this power is. It even made the main character, who never had his spirit broken no matter the odds, be thrown into complete despair.
>The next page describes a character's power that has just the specifics to beat it and even has another character acknowledge it.
YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS SHIT UP
>>143368933
Ishida + Ichigo will defeat Ywach.
>>143368840
and then this lame ass track comes on
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaOZ2Fs8pWM
>>143369054
Early bleach was so good.
its degenerate
>>143369204
it was so fucking promising
>>143369204
Was it?
I remember being very apathetic about the introduction arc.
>>143369204
>>143369681
>This was 11 years ago
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ty-Nqm4Pdc
>>143369681
Early Bleach is a fucking treasure.
>>143369740
DELETE THIS
>>143369740
still love that op, remains one of the best.
>>143369054
Where did you get this translation of bleach? This looks like viz.
>>143370281
Mangatraders, but their viz uploads only go up to volume 21 I think it was.
>>143362006
It's actually really good if you don't take it too seriously. Remember, Kubo is a troll.
>>143370585
>letting memes influence how you see things
Im gonna marry this Tsundere and make her a happy woman!
>>143370785
Bleach really does have the best girls.
>>143370785
Reminder that Kubo brought her and gamer kid back because he couldn't remember which Fullbringers were supposed to return.
>>143370917
Leader faggot and bookmark faggot would not be able to survive this shit
>>143371074
I hope they never come back desu.
Which was the most disappointing bankai? I vote for Kyoraku's.
>>143363947
>Skipping the Zanpaktou Tales Arc.
That's the single best arc in the entire series
Bleach overall is just ehhhh
It's an alright read weakly not bad but nothing usually too exciting
>>143371304
Shunsui's bankai was fine, it's the execution that was lacking. (Lille standing still while taking three out of four dans, wtf)
>>143371304
Ichigo's new Bankai.
>>143371577
He said most disappointing, not most hilarious
>>143371450
What? All these new reality distorting powers, instead of abilities that improve the characters performance, are simply awful. It just proves that Kubo has run out of ideas even in this area.
>>143371304
Make way
>Has to charge to have the power to cut things.
>Made completely irrelevant as of Kenpachi's Shikai reveal.
>>143371577
honestly that guy's got too many accessories
it's getting tacky
>>143371696
Ikkaku's Bankai is the weakest one, but nobody expected him to even have one so it wasn't a disappointment.
>>143371780
Also it looks fucking lame as hell.
At least Renji's looked cool as fuck.
>>143372219
I do miss when Bankai were meant to be big ass construct that were supposed to be menacing because of their sheer size. And Ichigo was the perfect foil for that. I don't get that feeling from Bankai anymore, many of them seem too small.
>>143372437
Yeah, and pretty much all the recent ones weren't interesting or "awe-inspiring" at all, like say Renjis, or Byakura's.
And yeah, Ichigo's original bankai design was fucking amazing.
>>143371623
This might be one of the reasons why Kubo sticks to those 3 captains (Shota, Kenpachi, Byakuya), other than popularity, of course. Their powers are relatively easy to get an understanding of while their Bankais are just an expansion on the abilities displayed in their Zanpaktou's Shikai form, rather than a completely new thing.
Dammit, re-reading bleach is making me so stupidly happy.
Too bad it's almost over.
>>143373184
>Too bad it's almost over.
> we will never have a blood soaked sword battle like this again.
>Ichigo gets a twin-blade zan
>It looks like absolute dogshit
>>143373556
Also whats-his-face with the 69 on his face wound up having a double-bladed shikai too.
>>143362006
It is pretty good until the time skip.
Was Cube Tit bullied out of twitter by western or japanese fans?
>>143373556
Captain AIDS' Sogyo no Kotowari looks pretty damn retarded too.
>>143373771
Because of a gay porn star who was ruining his image
>>143374034
what
>>143362006
Yes, do not bother. There is absolutely nothing of value with this manga/anime. Not even all it's hentai is worth all the formulaic battles, and asspull out comes.
>>143373673
wooooah that eye placement in the first panel
I really miss the schooltime shenanigans though.
>>143371696
I don't know that was pretty hype. regardless how weak it was.
Still Ichigo's best looking bankai form.
>>143362006
It's great until the end of the soul society arc. Hueco Mundo arc lasted way too fucking long for not a great payoff. It had it's moments, but they were way too far apart. Fullbring arc was complete shit. This one is like Hueco Mundo arc, but shorter so not as bad.
>>143374210
>bloody
>covered in bandages>my fetish
>>143362006
>>143362006
Anime is an art medium, in which quality is subjective.
Fuck off and watch it yourself to form an opinion. You could have easily watched a few episodes instead of shitposting in this thread hoping that somehow, impossibly, /a/ would all band together and tell you a decisive answer so you wouldn't have to form your own opinion.
>>143367356
>this final arc is the best
It really isn't, it's a massive culmination of all of Kubo's worst writing habits with no "downtime" of decent content in between. I find it hard to sympathise with anyone who's reading Bleach right now for any reason other than a sense of obligation, because why not spend 2 minutes each week keeping up with a manga I'm almost 700 chapters deep into.
>>143374465
fuck you, now I find that hot
>>143368114
What are you even talking about? The guy you responded to does not like Bleach, you realise?
>>143371696
In the anime, him chatting about it was hype
BANKAIIAIYEYEUAYSAUGEGAGSAUGH
RYUUMON HOUUUUZOKIIMARYUUUEUAHAHHAHHHHH
>>143368043
Probably disappointment because Ishida still jobbed hard regardless.
>>143374465
you must enjoy shopping for tampons
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-3YsWp12EA
Bleach will never be this good again.
>>143374574
HOZUKIMAREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHH
>>143373599
I think the stipulation is that both those swords have two blades in their unreleased forms. Shikai can get so wierd anyway, half of them aren't even swords when they get released.
>>143374643
>One of them had shunpo
>another had Bankai, and was captain-level
But okay Ichigo punched them so I guess they're out cold.
>>143362006
Bleach is great
>>143374804
>>143374043
>he doesn't know about KBTIT
>>143374210
We barely got to see his new one before he got bodied. Which was hilarious.
>>143374643
I remember screaming and giggling like a schoolgirl with the lads during this fight
>>143374643
>laying a violent hand on that amazonian qt
I'll cut you ichigo
>>143362006
Yes.
>>143374119
IIRC, Kubo's art was a bit janky in the first few chapters.
>>143374721
>>143374574
>>143371696
Get hype for it. Skip to 1:10.
https://youtu.be/BeuNTXSJctw?t=1m10s
>>143374978
Because it was just that shitty. It was like a bad joke.
>>143369054
If Kubo end the series killing Yhwach with a glorified version of this I will forgive him of everything.
>>143375102
He seemed to go easy on her at least.
But yes, she's pretty glorious.
>>143372219
Renji's new Bankai is 100x better, and that's not only because his old one was useless.
>>143375521
I don't even remember his new bankai.
>>143375577
He roasted Superstar with it.
>>143362006
It's fun. Kinda all over the place but it's pretty much always entertaining. Starts as ghostbusting which is fun, goes to Soul Society which is pretty great, then it gets a bit questionable but Aizen's Wild Ride is enjoyable enough. Then current arc has tons of shit go down.
Probably better to read the manga which while slow-paced can be binge read extremely fast, as compared to the anime which is super slow and gets pretty excruciating even if you skip all the filler.
I hadn't even thought of Bleach and the first thing I thought was if they revealed Urahara's bankai. It looks neat. Maybe I'll bother re-reading.
>>143375619
>Superstar
Jesus, I completely forgot about that.
Wait.
Did no one fucking realize Ishida even lost his powers during the SS Arc?
>>143375829
Yeah they commented on it numerous times just not to his face so as not to hurt his pride.
Objective fact coming through, beep beep:
Just watch until Soul Society. That said, it doesn't get BAD until after Ulquiorra's final fight.
YOU KNOW WHAT THIS IS WHERE YOU GOTTA BE, IT MUST BE YOUR DESTI-
>*blade grab*
The exact moment Bleach started to suck
>>143375893
That moment was great, though.
What would you have preferred, Ichigo and Renji beat Aizen 2v1 and it's all over right there?
>>143375893
That was honestly fantastic. I wish the anime played number one after Ichigo grabbed Aizen's sword in the FKT arc as a poetic finish.
>>143375893
That was fucking hilarious though.
>Tell Your Children The Truth
KUBO
>>143375893
I would be okay with it if they picked up where they left off when Ichigo caught Aizen's blade
Is this the Bleach thread? First fake spoilers are out.
Ishida does something causing Jugo to halt and backs away. He explains that he switched Jugo's "confidence in winning" with Ichigo's despair. Switches to Ichigo, Ichigo regains his spirits, slaps away Yhwach's hand and summons zangetsu. Flares his reiatsu and remakes the sword, it's apparently more compressed now.
Ichigo: That was my last "despair"
>>143376349
Lmfao
>>143376349
>he switched Jugo's "confidence in winning" with Ichigo's despair
I can't stop fucking laughing, holy fucking shit.
>>143376349
>>143370886
Hanataro is not a girl.
>>143376349
This is actually kinda cool.
>>143363947
I lucked out
I quit watching and began reading right after Ichigo fought grimmjaw. It were a lot better to consume.
I watched for major fights. A shame we wont get to see Ywach lay ichigo out.
Faggots on /a/ who eat up any loli anime they see have zero clue what they're talking about. Out of all the shounen there are, Bleach is probably the best.
>>143376622
Only if marathoned, because then you don't get the urge to call asspull, or complain about wasted/short chapters.
>>143376506
Isn't it ironic that the cure for watching this show is its own namesake? I can't rember one episod and I
>>143363947
A couple of filler episodes are worth watching for the animation alone. The climax of the last filler arc is as good as it gets as far as animation goes in the TV series.
>Download whole series
>Quality of the scanes is amazing in the start
>It suddenly goes to shit
Fuck time to find another download.
>>143376622
>Out of all the shounen there are, Bleach is probably the best.
Jesus christ are you wrong. Holy shit
If you're talking DBZ, Naruto, One piece kind of shonen, whatever, they're all pretty much the same.
If you're including shorter shit in the same category like Jojo, sports shonen, etc. Bleach is complete shit. The plot moves GLACIALLY slow in parts, and after a decent first 2 seasons the show goes off the rails with filler and tropes.
>>143376806
I'm not talking about filler. I'm talking about the canon story. People love talking about tropes. Look, shounen is shounen. Every shounen is going to have similarities. If you don't like shounen then you don't like shounen, it's as simple as that.
>>143376899
I like plenty of shonen. You must not have watched a whole lot if you think Bleach's main story is the best shonen. That is just absurd, and probably comes from a small portfolio watched on your part. I can name like 10 sports shonen off the top of my head with better pacing, action, characters, intensity, writing, etc. than Bleach.
Even Bleach's main story moves almost unwatchably slow. HunterxHunter is a long running show that shits all over Bleach in pacing and continuity. The power creep never gets out of hand and it has multiple arcs that blow every single Bleach one out of the water. Watch that unbiased and I will provide you more.
>>143377068
Calm your autism. Us adults can actually enjoy a slow pace without sperging out.
>>143377068
Another Hunter X Hunter fag.
I've watched all of Bleach and am still reading the manga. I don't care for sports shounen, and I'm not talking about sports shounen.
>>143377117
>us adults
>vehemently defends Bleach as the best shonen ever and will hear no dissenting opinions
I would bet my ass you're not 18. And if you are god help you, you might be retarded. I tried to give you an anime recommendation that might be up your alley but much better than Bleach. Watch it if you want, I'm just trying to help you watch better shows. Bleach is objectively worse than most shows in character, story, pacing, writing, and art. I'm not trying to troll you, there is just much better shit out there and its sad to see people limit themselves to entry level anime without trying anything else
>>143362174
I' GONNA BUILD A WALL AND THE HOLLOWS GONNA PAYS FOR IT
>>143377129
I'm not even a huge fan but its a shitload better than Bleach.
Okay, things like Death Note for example are technically shonen. Shonen is a wide, wide genre. Saying Bleach is the best of all time is an insult to so much shit that actually has writing and not only giant battles
>>143377190
Two different people my friend.
>>143377190
>objectively
Silly bitch, your buzzwords cannot harm me.
And while I do enjoy HxH, I still prefer Bleach. It has more personality.
>>143377274
I disagree but at least you've watched something other than Bleach unlike that other retard
>>143377420
You shouldn't use retard to describe people who are smarter than you.
>>143377068
HxH is better but Bleach has my waifu since I was 12.
>>143377464
>no u
nice, that's some quality banter. I'm never coming into a Bleach thread again
>>143377708
Please don't, you contribute so much.
>>143362006
the best arc is the Soul Society, the best villains are in Arrancar saga, Fullbringer saga is shit btw
I only follow it because I want to see Aizen pointing and using his finger more.
>>143375747
Most of the Quincies are utterly forgettable.
>>143369054
Nope
>>143377420
I've watched Bleach, Naruto, Hunter x Hunter, Full Metal Alchemist, Soul Eater... shall I go on?
>>143368386
That poster meant that they CAN'T COMPREHEND.
It's shit.
BUT SHIT WITH STYLE!
>>143378075
never forget
>>143377485
>Translate
Up through soul society arc bleach is a legitimately good shounen. It continues to have some good moments after that, but the overall quality definitely declines. If someones interested in it they should at least try up until that point.
>>143378484;)
>>143377841
Preferably on Ichigo.
>>143362006
Skip filler

>>143380962
Probably. But his chances are lower than those of the two other Sternritter.
>>143378634
Thanks, that's the only thing keeping me going
>>143381173
I hope this fucking matters to Kubo but knowing him anything can happen
>>143362290
I think you got it reversed when it comes to the main character meaning more than the rest of the characters. Up til recently we hadn't really seen Ichigo do anything of relevance in this arc. Everyone else got their 15 mins fighting various Sternritter.
Netabare spoilers
Yhwach grabs Ichigo and proclaims that he is going to take back everything as he begins to extract his power.
Orihime goes "Kurosaki-kun" as always and fails to do anything of consequence as Yhwach stabs her feet with his shadow and she falls to the ground.
Ichigo hears a voice and meets the spirit king in his mind. This meeting causes Ichigo's body to shine with a dazling light.
Yhwach: Is this quincy power?
This new power repels Yhwach and brings Ichigo back to his senses. When the dust settles he has taken on yet another new form.
>>143381173
>1º - Ichigo X Rukia
>2º - Ulquiorra X Inoue
I agree entirely.
>>143382698
sounds good, even if it might be fake
though it seems asspull-y that the soul king just happen to talk to ichigo's mind, we didnt however see his quincy power in his bankai or horn form
>>143382819
It's a good pairing
>>143382698
Are these spoilers usually correct or fake?
>>143382698
>When the dust settles he has taken on yet another new form.
And I guess there is going to be ANOTHER new form after this one fails?
>>143382819
Yeah me too.
It worries me that Renji x Rukia is so high on the list though. Renji is cool but shouldn't get the Rukia.
>>143381173
>1º - Ichigo X Rukia
>32° Isshin x Masaki
>>143381173
>Shirosaki x Inoue
How is this even a thing if nobody but Ichigo has seen "Shirosaki"?
>>143383019
Who knows. On very rare occasions have early spoilers turned out to be real. We've gotten spoilers somewhat earlier than usual in the last couple of weeks, usually late tuesday, or wednesday, but we haven't been able to verify them until pics come out on the day of release.
>>143383046
I do want to see a quincy form before we get the inevitable final super simplified endgame mode, that is actually just a black coat with a lazily designed sword made of reiatsu, because Kubo loves his parallels.
>>143377230
And what makes your opinion on what makes a good Shounen objective? Fucking dumbass, you're existence is an insult.
>>143362006
Between One Piece and Naruto only Bleach anime discontinued, so I guess the Japanese lost interest in it.
>>143383693
Because Bleach had more filler than canon. And I'm pretty sure nobody was fond of having three or so filler arcs interrupting canon arcs(Everything about Hueco Mondo was just chaotic).
>>143383693
Not by a long shot, Bleach was TV Tokyo's highest rated anime and the only one of the 3B anime to ever pull its weight in disc sales and also the only 3B anime to get a spot in the top 100 best selling anime of all time.
I'm pretty hyped for the upcoming Aizen VS Yhwach fight honestly.
>>143380962
No. "Orihime will heal dead Ritters" fags got BTFO.
>>143362006
It's not as bad as everyone says. The pacing is incredibly frustrating though. Just wait until the manga is over and then marathon read the manga.
>>143377068
>HunterxHunter is a long running show that shits all over Bleach in pacing and continuity
Yeah... how are those hiatuses treating you?
>>143362006
>>143381173
>Ulquiorra X Inoue
This ship made absolutely no fucking sense and it still got popular for no fucking reason amongst the most delusional of fujoshits. Thank God Kubo killed all of these faggots hopes and dreams by killing off Ulquiorra and confirming his death in an interview.
>>143378075
Ichigo and Rukia's team-up will be critical but it might be saved for the REAL final boss.
>>143367939
Lab Member is dead or something.
>>143383693
It's for the best that bleach ended there, take some time to cool off while you're still decently popular.
Naruto is still going on despite shit TV ratings and is complete shit now, one piece has slowed down so much it's unwatchable.
>>143382876
But lon. You said you hate Orihime
Kubo please become a hentai artist
>>143378075
>>143378484
>>143378634
This damn meme.
>>143381173
>Ichigo X Tatsuki
This is the true end game. Objectively so. Ichigo will marry her, and Karin will have a cool older sister in law to play video games with.
>>143362006
I have seen all of bleach last month in like 2 weeks or so, soul society arc is as good as shounen can get.
if you skip the filler and some of the sidecharacter fights its really awesome.
i loved it
>>143377841
That is a long finger
>>143387470
I forget, why did they give up on rescuing Halibel ages ago?
>>143362006
I'd say read up to the last Grimmjow fight and if you still don't like it drop it.
>>143389699
Kubo will do something with her. I really thought he'd forgotten about Nanana, Grimmjow, Ryuken, and Kira, having all disappeared for dozens of chapters, but they came back into the plot.
>>143389699
Was that ever Ichigo's objective? He helped the Arrancar; he didn't need to save every last one of them, especially once Soul Society itself was attacked. Nelliel and Grimmjow, who are probably the strongest Arrancar after/alongside Harribel, are to blame for forgetting about her.
>>143390084
Except Grimmjow wouldn't give a fuck about Harribel and I imagine Nel spent most of her time with Urahara and learning how to work the device so she could stay in adult form.
>>143369054
>Implying
>>143362006
It's worth watching up until the end of the SS arc because it's legitimately good until that point, and while it has some moments of greatness afterwards they're overshadowed by the bad. I basically only keep reading at this point for Rukia.
>>143362006
It has 750 episodes, who the fuck would spend all that time on one animu?
>>143362174
>>143391897
I know that feel, anon. It's suffering.
>>143381173
>9º - Ishida x Inoue
This gives me life.
>>143391897
Me Too
>>143383200
>Ichigo getting a quincy form
>Ishida gets to do nothing but bleed all over the floor
I hate this world.
She deserved better
>>143393655
And it's Uryuu who has the power to overcome Yhwach, while Ichigo gave up and is losing his powers.
What's the point of bleach anyway?
There is no over arching theme or goal, it's just constant battles and saving someone, the characters are bland, the artwork is ugly looking now, the character designs are piss poor, why do you even waste your time with this?
It's one of the worst manga's out there, I dropped it at ch 200.
>>143396735
>What's the point of bleach anyway?
Kubo.
>>143363947
Dont skip Power Rangers Filler. Shit is enjoyable as fuck
>>143362006
It's really goodfor a laugh
>>143398154
>tfw your favorite Bleach character is only relevant in filler
>>143399337
Ichigo?
>>143399422
I said FAVORITE character.
>>143399337
>Isane.
So, what happened with Aizen after all this time?
Is he a good boi now, like it happens with most villains?
>>143399715
He's just been sitting in a chair the whole arc acting smug.
>>143399715
He's always been a good boi
>>143399715
>Implying Aizen wasn't a good guy all along.
>>143362006
I refuse to watch 336 episodes of this garbage.
>>143399715
>>143399960
Aizen was probably just pretending to be evil to train everyone so they could be ready for the quincy invasion.
>>143400182
The early parts are pretty good.

Literally the GOAT episode.

Is that the last episode?
>>143401639
No, it's theIchirukiepisode.
>>143401683
What number?
>>143384046
Source? Having a hard time believing Bleach has sold more than One Piece.
>>143401854
342.
>>143401891
Was this after Fullbring or after Aizen?
>>143402055
After Aizen.

The art fell apart completely, there're too many characters and not enough villains causing villains to compensate by having utter bullshit powers (which in the end hurt the art as well because they're not visually interesting), Ichigo is getting too many power-ups too quickly, etc, etc, etc
