    Bleach is addicting and just plain awesome!

    When I first started watching Bleach it was because I had nothing else to do, i caught it around episode 5. After i watched two shows i was completely hooked. I love everything, the characters, the animation everything! I was running around like a mad woman trying to catch up on the episodes. For main characters we have

    Ichigo: A normal 15 year old boy, except for the fact he can see spirits. He's torn up over his mothers death and he's angry. Rukia: A past soul reaper who's lost her powers helps Ichigo all while trying to understand him. Kon: A mod spirit who is actually really funny, i love that he was added to the show.

    Once you start watching your captivated for the next half hour, as soon as i turn on Bleach the next thing i know its over.

    There are no words to explain how much i love this show, and i know i'm not the only one.

    Legendary Anime

    One of the best Anime shows ever made. Bleach sets the bar for any anime I watch, and a high one at that. The fights are epic and I have yet to see a better battle system and fights then Bleach has.

    I've seen the show multiple times, never gets old.

    My advice

    If you are looking to enjoy anime you should watch it without Filler.

    Bleach is amazing.

    I can't remember when I started watching Bleach, I was suddenly hooked. I started at like, episode 30 and had no clue what was going on. After about two episodes, I decided to watch them online in a English sub-titled version. I'm not a fan of English dubs, either. I watch Bleach all the time, it's really addicting Bleach is about this kid, Ichigo. 15, currently in High-School. He's been able to see ghosts ever since he could remember. Rukia, a death-god suddenly appears one day. She gets wounded trying to protect Ichigo and transfers most of her power to him.

    It has a lot of action, comedy, and a bit of drama. Great show for teenagers, or even older than that.

    Action, redefined

    For anyone who enjoys action anime, this is the stuff to watch. Bleach revolves around Kurosaki Ichigo, a regular always-grouchy high-schooler who for some strange reason is able to see the souls of the dead around him. Although they are not usually dangerous, there are some called 'hollows' that aim to eat the regular ones, and on one fateful night, his entire family is put in danger by them. A death god, Kuchiki Rukia, happens to be there to battle these creatures, and after a dangerous mistake she is forced to give her powers to Ichigo in order to defeat the monster.

    Henceforth, Ichigo has to take over her duties as a death god, protecting good spirits and other humans from hollows. The action in this series is stylish and fast paced, and the story line has you wanting more almost every episode. Ichigo is funny because of his ever-grouchy personality, and his friends are just as hilarious in their own way.

    If you watch any anime at all this year, make Bleach number 1 on that list.

    • Trivia
      Bleach was created because Tite Kubo wanted to draw kimono-wearing shinigami, so he drew the character of Rukia Kuchiki, making her the first character to be drawn as well as the first character to appear in the series.
    • Quotes

      Zangetsu: [looking up at the sky; thinking] Ichigo... do you know how I hate rain? And it rains in this world, too. If your heart is troubled, the skies will become cloudy. If you grieve, it will rain ever so easily.

      [pause]

      Zangetsu: I wonder if you can understand... the fear of being rained on in this lonely world... To stop that rain, I shall lend you any strength, any power. If you just have faith in me, I will not allow any rain to fall upon this world.

      [speaking out loud]

      Zangetsu: Trust me, Ichigo. As long as I am here, you'll never fight alone.
