BLEACH

[Qloxx]

Butter Butter Butter no it's Cheese lol. 161 Was awsome got me all fidgety to see what happens because Ichigo usually Bankai's then puts on the hollow mask but it looks like he trying something with that massive Black spirit power.
Yo mugsy can you pass in arima tomorrow.

OH SNAP anyone see 162 that siht was bad but ah go have to get something keep me occupied while i wait for 163 lol

the animation and style of the bleach anime is simply the best, for a weekly release. simply supurb, naruto story nice and all but it just fails to reproduce the manga like bleach. bleach anime stretches the episodes while still maintainng the pace of the manga. i love that. not like naruto ridiculous use of slow motion imagine it take nauruto bout 20 mins out of a 45 minute episode to charge up and fire the chakra ball. i mean seriously. anyhow back to bleach. damn the animation blows me away sometimes. they certainly make up for that dry spell during the bounto arc where hitsugaya look like some randon fella off the street draw him. or the toothpaste looking ice attacks. but now phew. fast paced high quality wonderfulness. naruto on an indefinite suspension from my anime roster.

BLLEEEAAAACHHHHHHHH *squirt* ahh......

how come nobody talking about the manga? the entire naruto thread is about the manga why not here?

[rassmatic]

Bleach 162!!!!!!!!!!! BEST EPISODE SINCE BYAKUYA VS ICHIGO IN THE SOUL SOCIETY!!!!!!!!! NUFF SAID!!!! BTW.......

BLLEEEAAAACHHHHHHHH *squirt* ahh......

ewww

Bleach keeps the pace with the manga because Bleach isn't really fast paced. Fights in the Bleach mange to suffer from a lot of filler and useless extension because so little happens in a chapter as averse to what can be done and shown in an episode.

Naruto Manga>Bleach Manga
Bleach Anime > Naruto Anime

[Xerotolerant]

o

Naruto Manga>Bleach Manga
Bleach Anime > Naruto Anime

there is no better way to put that. and what i mean by pace is not the conversations while the fights going on, but for some reason how i imagine a naruto fight would be in the anime -perfect example being when naruto and sakura fought kakashi again.- it would be awsome when i read it but the anime makes it seem longer than it should be. that sakura really didn't need 30 odd seconds to think that up. bleach on the other hand just always seem to be how it should people's dashes are instantaneous that kinda thing. what on earth is up with these slow motion dashes they does want to be doing in naruto? seriously??

all bleach need if for some method to the madness *chop* *chop* *chop* is good for the adrenaline but nobody would complain if ichigo learns an actual technique and no *chop* *chop* *chop* *big chop* doesn't count as technique. i would talk about technique but i not sure if talking about the manga is allowed here.

[Crixx_Creww]

well i talk bout manga all the time but most of these peeps dont seem to read it so my info is lost on them

like months ago i was explaining the espada names and stuff like nnoitara (night crown) and all that
and was preaching ulquiora's manly manliness but again it was like a ghost town, tumble weeds an all..
amazingly, ulquioras been in that phantom zone esque place for a long time.. lol
hes probably this "new enemy " for kenpachi an dem to fight
also, kendo might be kenpachi's zapaktou's name, he may not have just been refering to the art of fighting. just my guess

[Synchronomyst]

Nah. They would've made a bigger deal of it if it were.

[ProtoJoe]

but before the end of the series most def we gonna see something to do with kenpachi's released zapaktou, there has been alot of foreshadowing about it...

also, i wonder what roll nell is gonna play after this arc, i cant see her staying there, but at the same time i doubt she'll go back to soul society, maybe she'll shack up with itchigo, dam itchigo is becoming a real player....

[ProtoJoe]

dude, i was talking about the real nell,the newest edition to bleach boobs, not the little girl....

[EmpireKing]

lol ok....


ichigo did get pwn't in the las episode...i was kinda expecting him to get possess by d hollow wen he had knock out on d ground but it didnt happen...*sigh*....Hime-chan gettin quite a beatin too from dem two "ppl"

[Qloxx]

Come on man how long you watching bleach I sure he had to go through something like that to get in touch with the hollow side because like Sado he would react differently while in Hence mundo or whatever. But correct me if i'm wrong but Tensa Zangetsu is a technique

[Crixx_Creww]

no
is just lixx

no setta complicated ting bout it
no inexplicable raise in power

he come rong ulquiorra and get rinse
infact not just rinse he get ah whale wash

LOL but all in all we know he have to get hella stronger to move on.

[W1nTry]

It's not just stronger... Ichigo needs to be more efficient at using his reatsu... cause its always leaking all over the damn place. Unlike say... Naruto who has an unlimited supply of Chakra, Ichigo has a finite source of Reatsu.. yet it's wasted like a leaking WASA main.... I mean I wonder to myself even Bankai transformations are SOOO wasteful... the amt of energy that goes into releasing the Bankai... I would think it's just kinda dumb... that aside... considering Ichigo's released form compresses all that reatsu into a small form to enable utlra high speeds attacks... yuh would think the attacks would be more concentrated as well... man flood the whole floor with err... black flames??? and all he do is singe he opponent clothes... I mean its like a laser.... if you concentrate the beam more and more it's more effective... if Getsaiga Tensho was a extremely focused attack I think it'd be almost impossible to block... yet... ahw ell...

Some news I just found out, which was released earlier this week. Bleach will once again plummet into fillers with the anime right on the mangas tail. What is more interesting is the news that has been released about the fillers according to bleach-fan.jp a new character, Amagai Shuusuke, will be taking over the third division captain position. The story will also return to Soul Society starting sometime next month, April. What puzzles me is the episode titles that have be released up to the April 02 are the following, 164. Ishida's Strategy, the 20-second Offense and Defense, 165. The Murderous Intent Boils! The Joyful Grimmjow, 166. Ichigo's Promise, the Destined Battle, 167. Grind Pantera! Grimmjow Strikes Back. Now as us manga readers know, if 167 or even 168 is the last Bleach episode before fillers that would mean that they're planning of cutting a whole lot of Hueco mundo action out. Which I can't even begin to imagine how they plan to fix. Hopefully they will finish the Hueco Mundo ark off before splicing in some fillers.

Was it just me, or did this weeks introduction of the last episode painfully long? Like they pullin a lil Naruto there...

Edit: Oh and the new characters - http://www.bleach-fan.jp/amagai/index.html

[W1nTry]

No, it wasn't just you... they did indeed pull a Naruto... in a sense... not quite as tasteless but equally as BORING

[ProtoJoe]

yea they trying to pull back the anime cause its REAL close to the manga right now, just a couple of fights away...

[W1nTry]

One would think they would have KNOWN that eh? but now they're gonna PAD episodes like there's no tomorrow... cause if they DON'T there won't be cause there'll be no story... I think as with D.Grayman it would be a nice time to focus on the background of other not as important characters that way it doesn't mess with the main storyline, BUT give nice filler information to questions you prolly always wondered about...

[Xerotolerant]

they kinda stuck in a place where character development is sorta impossible more or less. i mean all there is from there forward is big fight after big fight after bigfight. they would  probably throw in some of that storyness a lil later they might stretch out that nell thing, who knows? what i do know is
BIG SWEAT IN THE BREWING!!!!!

BIG SWEAT!!!! ISSHIN & UAHARA & YOURICHI VS. AIZEN & TOUSEN & GIN!!!!!!!
tell them i say so. i do sir believe i have just wet myself.
