Fillers start at episode 64, they are still going, I don't know if they're good because I stopped watching when the fillers started airing.

How ya doing, buddy?

I stopped as well. This whole Bount arc is really boring. I did get used to the new opening theme at least.

FELIPE NO

whats a site to watch Bleach on other than Youtube ?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Torrent sites. There should be a sticky or something about downloading anime.

About the manga, it's up to 229 as I know it. About the Chad/Inoue thing

Spoiler:

I don't think they have the power of a Vizard but they have some sort of power. I don't think it has been explained. Also Aizen was looking at Inoue and wondering why she's like that. At first I thought when Urahara told Inoue that she's useless in the upcoming battle (Urahara... you bastard!), I thought she was going to defect to Aizen. But glad that wasn't the case.

Still, the manga is in this "power up" mode before

Spoiler:

meeting up with Aizen again

so it's slow right now.

Also about the Quincy

Spoiler:

Ishida getting his powers back is pretty short. Still, glad he got his powers back. Just wish there was more of him.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yea, I stopped watching it after the fillers started as well, I watch one of the new episodes that come out and every now and then to see how far it is along.

Most amazing jew boots

I have only seen bleach music videos at YouTube. :/
At least thats what the search field brings up.

How ya doing, buddy?

The Bleach fillers are alright. I just caught up over the weekend. (That break in April messed up my viewing routine). Anyway, there's been a lack of LOL and AWESOME throughout the filler but it's ok. It's all about those clips at the end they show anyway. They remain to be ridiculously random and often funny imo.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Okay finally the manga is going somewhere.

Ch. 230

Spoiler:

Grimjaw is back and armless, and Ichigo is going to fight him. So far it doesn't seem like Ichigo can harness his hollow power for more than 4 seconds if I recall, so how in the world is he going to fight him now? I guess we'll see!

I was speaking idiomatically.

Is it just me, or has like the filler episodes been stuck at episode 80 for the longest time. I was starting to get afraid that ALL of the series has been licensed, I know the 1st season has hit American airwaves...but I don't know about the rest.

Most amazing jew boots

Dont forget, maybe this is just a first filler arc. Perhaps there would be 2nd, 3rd, 4th.

Let's hope not.

FELIPE NO

Its up to 83 now, with another one-hour special coming up... and for those of you who can't find the episodes you can download the torrents and some direct episodes at www.bleachportal.net

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Ch. 231 spoiler... Am I the only manga reader here? =\ But the M7 lq release was horrific... but beggars can't be choosers.

Spoiler:

Surprised Ichigo would use his hollow powers so quickly, even if he is to retain it for a mere 11 seconds. Seems like one hell of some power he's got there.

Having Urahara in action will be pretty damn sweet! It just seemed pretty sudden to have him say, "I'll go" when we barely ever see him fight. I'm psyched on this match.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I also read manga.

Bleach is getting pretty much boring now. It is DBZ with swords instead of fist fight. I am sick and tired of Ichigo powering up, for instance, he first learned bankai, I am pretty sure that is more then enough for a Shinigami since he is able to move fast like that. Now he is mastering his hollow form to be "stronger", like seriously, now what? Fusion?

Spoiler:

It is alright. I am pretty suprised how he accepted to use the hollow power. But the last chapter was pretty disapointing IMO.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I'm just not really feeling the whole "power up" arc right now. I didn't like it in Soul Society and I don't like it now.

I think this is the sad state of most shounen mangas, since Bleach lost its appeal after the Soul Society arc for me. For now it seems bouncing around the arrancar deal. Naruto already fell into this trap long before, like a year ago. If anything, it is rare for me to encounter a long manga (20+ vol) that kept with the rhythm since first go, although I can readily name a couple that have.

I thought that the manga lost steam sometime during the one-night attack against everyone (Mala Suerte!, I think). It still managed to hold my attention before that happened.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Err, I dont think so. At first glance I was just like you, disappointed by how this arc seems goes nowhere. I restrained myself reading bleach around 2 months. Because it seems I lost track of the story, I reread the entire vaizard arc, and to be honest, I began to enjoy this one afterward.

The main reason I felt this arc getting lame probably because I only read fragments, if you read the entire chapters again, you *might* enjoy this series again just like me.

lol:

I think Kubo Tite is yuri lover. Just take a look of the recent Rukia-Orihime cover.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Spoiler:

I think all men are yuri lovers... deep down inside...

It's true about reading a chapter at a time vs. reading a volume at a time. One chapter a week doesn't hold my attention very long, but reading entire volumes at one sitting can do wonders at how you view the manga. There are pros and cons with both though.

Pros with reading full volumes in one sitting is that you get sucked in with more force, almost like you can't put it down and that you have to read as much as you can before you decide to do something else. The story unfolds more clearly. Cons with this however is that, in cases such as mine, you leave the manga hanging for around a year until next summer break, then when you pick it up again, you forget just about everything except for main characters' names or whatever else significant. The adjustment varies depending on what genre you're reading or how much knowledge of the previous volumes are needed for catching up now; it might even take rereading previous volumes to get the ball rolling once again.

Manga serials like Shounen Jump are those weekly chapters, where some pros can be you get a little dosage per week instead of heavy injections. But in the case like Bleach, it seems disconnected. And for people like me, we forget to remind ourselves every week that there's a new chapter out and don't really bother devoting ourselves to it every week. To me it's a chore to remember, and I would much rather wait until a break until I can massively download and catch up with things.

Sorry for the long rant.

FELIPE NO

If anyones interested in the english dub.... I visited the ANN bleach page today and they have Kate Higgins (Sakura in Naruto) listed as one of the VAs.

EDIT: She'll be doing Karin....

EDIT 2: According to Kate Higgins in a email to Bleach7.com, Michelle Ruff will be doing the voice of Yuzu, and Ichigo has also been cast, but she forgot who was going to do his voice.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

For those interested, the movie's official site just went live. The full title is 劇場版BLEACH MEMORIES OF NOBODY or, taking out the annoying little "gekijouban" part, it's simply "BLEACH: MEMORIES OF NOBODY." Hm.

Unfortunately, I can't really read the summary they have on the site (which is pretty barebones at the moment) besides "Soul Society" and something that looks like "plan" in katakana.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

www.bleach-movie.com

The movie's official site updated again with TV spot #2 and the first teaser trailer. Both are actually fairly similar. There's not much in way of content unless you like looking at Ichigo trying to look cool. December's still five months off, so I suppose they've got more up their sleeve to show us.

Most amazing jew boots

There is teaser site for Bleach game for Wii. But hell that movie trailer is pretty sweet.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Reading up to 235

Spoiler:

Geez, this is getting really choppy. First there are too many "surprises" that aren't really surprising, like people coming out of nowhere and pulling moves from thin air. And then switching between three battles can be kind of hard to catch. Although, my favorite parts are seeing Urahara in action. That's just plain sexy.

That trailer came out a long time ago.. Why would they talk about it so recent...?

Alright, I've been away from the anime fillers. What's been going on with the filler arc? Are we still going to get the real thing yet?

How ya doing, buddy?

I haven't been following the anime lately either because of the filler episodes.

What episode features the new ED (or was it OP or both)?

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
