Summary:
Kurosaki Ichigo is a 15 year old boy that has an ability to see ghosts/spirits. Because of his ability, he is able to meet a female death god (a.k.a Shinigami) named Kuchiki Rukia. To save his family and friends from unwanted soul-eating spirits (Hollows), Rukia transfers her Shinigami powers to Ichigo. As Rukia takes on a human shell, together they solve mysteries involving spirits and hollows until from the spirit world comes 2 other shinigamis explaining that it is illegal to transfer Shinigami powers to humans and Rukia exceeded the time limit to stay in the human world. After they sentence her death for breaking the laws, Ichigo snaps and swears to everyone he will retrieve Rukia by breaking into the spirit world.
The story of Bleach is unrivaled and the dialogue of it is the best ever on both Japanese and English sides.
the Animation is pretty good though some of the comedy seans have the lazy drawings.
Entertainment its the most entertaining of all..
A lot of problems with this Anime center around the Filler Arcs.. however in every other Anime that has filler it would drag down a series.. but I find that Bleach Filler Arcs are both very interesting and just awesome...
The Only gret anoyance to me is that with all the villians and length of the series...only 1 person has died... Kien. I know its kinda pety to expect all Anime to seem realistic but honestly the awesome realism of the fights are wasted on the fact Im pretty sure no one is going to die...
(Spoiler ahead)
I also think the finally between Aizen and Ichigo was both rushed and didnt quite make sense.. though looking back on it.. how does an enemy make your enemies your friend again.. I dont understand how captain Aizens betrayal made Ichigo okay in the eyes of the soul Society... even if Rukia was aquitted it was kinda a "hu?" moment.
Then when you find Aizen manipulated everything in the last season the villinization of Aizen was so complete and over the top it was almost a Joke.. I mean with his powers it didnt even seem to be a level in which the first 3 seasons showed....
Though overal as an Anime Bleach is still the best their is with its latest Arc soo entertaining and origial.
Simply the kind of Anime that keeps you wanting to know where it is going next...
