I love Bleach though I wouldn't call it the best ever.

It's way overrated. The story went completely down the drain after Soul Society, and now the it's been pretty much reduced to minor characters fighting boring battles for a half a year if not more. I still read the manga and watch the anime out of habit, but boy does Bleach suck right now.

Well it smells pretty funky but it is nowhere near the smell of something like pure Ammonia. It does clean fairly well though.

Funny I found this topic. I just started watching the series Sunday on surfthechannel.com. After watching just 7 episodes, I went out and bought the 3 seasons that are out. Never before have I seen an anime that has as an awesome story, great action sequences, and comical moments as Bleach has. Probabily the most engaging anime I've ever seen. And Rukia is probably the most smart and strong anime woman I have ever seen. The only complaint I have are that the episodes are only 30 minutes long. They could easily make the episodes an hour long, and still have the show be engaging.

This topic will probably be seen as union advertisement, first off.

Second off, no, I don't think its overrated. I like it a whole lot and watch each episode once it gets subbed (I'm at the part where the old guy with the longass name fought Allon), but at the same, it is so far from the best ever created.

I like the characters, but the world itself is a little lacking. However, the interesting characters, and more importantly the awesome fights make up for my problems with the series.

Overall, its an above average action anime.

The bount Filler was bad, but I find the Arankars(sp?) to be a lot more intresting. The series may not be the best, but it is has great action, and has comical moments. Plus Rongiku(sp?) is hot.

Eh, I completely skipped every filler, and most of the Huece Mondo arc, and practically all of the Arrancar arc.

I like it right now, though, the fights are entertaining, but theres getting to be way too many characters. Either kill some off or just drop some.

The part right before they go to Hueco Mondo isn't bad, but once they get there is when the show starts to drag at a snail's pace. The series pretty much becomes reduced to Orihime crying about how she's useless, Ichigo yelling that he'll save her, and then him getting magical powerups for completely unexplained reasons...

I only enjoyed like the first 20 episodes or so, the anime just did a huge turn around then, it basically mislead me into thinking it was this cool dark anime, then Rukia got arrested or something and it all went hell, I stopped seeing it right there

Well the english dub is terrible so I had to find it in Japanese online to watch it but other than that it was pretty good. That said I only watched through the end of the sould society and I heard it gets bad after that.

I caught this.

Bleach is an anime.

And yes, there is a Nirvana CD called Bleach, which I've listened to and I kind of like it.

My favorite songs on it are Scoff, Sifting, etc

Not all anime have to be about deep emotion.

Well, if it's your cup of tea, go for it. It's actually kinda disappointing, because when I first saw the show it seemed really promising, but I guess it's just too goofy and long for my likings. If it cut out the cheesy humour, developed the characters in a non-super-happy-fun way, and toned down some of the over-the-top antics, I might actually watch it.

I wouldn't say it was. I don't think the anime is really all that great but Bleach fans don't seem to push Bleach out there and scream about it all the time like it's the center of their world. They just think it's great and that's that and so I don't think it gets put on a pedestal all that much and thus avoids getting overrated. They're a quietly intense bunch.

Well, it's good, but hey, almost EVERY anime is overrated in a way. But at least the fights don't get too emotional unlike Naruto where every fight, it contains at least 3 flashbacks, Naruto saying crap about stuff, and then the fight lasts for 2 minutes.

I don't know. Two of my friends that got me into the show have done watched 200+ episodes, and they said only a few episodes drag, but not to where you stop caring about the show. I'll keep on watching it, cause out of the 30 episodes I've watched 0 were boring or broken.

I have to agree. Most anime series have TERRIBLE English voice overs. I tried watching Bleach English dubbed, it was just unbearable. But I think Rouroni Kenshin maybe worser than Bleach. The only animes that I know that have a decent voice over is Cowboy Bebop, Trigun, Yu Yu Hakusho, and Dragonball Z. I know of a few others, but these are the only ones that stand out......

Yes, after the bount arc filler(yes I liked it, not bad for a filler) it went down. However the current manga chapters are getting better in my opinon. I don't watch the anime.
