Spanning 366 episodes, Bleach is regarded as one of the big shonen shows out there, sitting at the same table as One Piece, Naruto and Dragonball. Watching it in 2024, however, I can tell you that Bleach aged like milk.
First of all, I could sit here and talk about fillers all day, but we've all seen the memes. Bleach is *at least* 45% filler, but even that is a generous number. If you remove all the useless shonen tropes like pointless flashbacks, repetitive shouts, long running scenes, still shots, slow camera panning and reused frames, you'll soon realize that Bleach is more like 70% filler.
Bleach also has a serious issue with bystanders that *constantly* interrupt fights and serious moments so they can do their comedy routine. And it's not even good comedy. It's children's comedy. M…

Bleach is the ultimate delusion. You may take a look at the average rating for this show and think "Hey, this show must not be that bad. I'll give it a watch." I am posting this review to warn you ahead of time: those reviews are not for Bleach in its entirety. Let me explain.
I, like many others, got hooked by Bleach in its first season. In fact, I should state now that if you're only interested in watching the first three seasons you'll probably come away feeling pretty happy. Up to that point, the show is stellar. It's fast-paced, full of interesting characters and has a great story set in a fascinating setting. If this were a review for the first three seasons, I would be offering glowing praise. Unfortunately, Bleach is a lot longer than three seasons. A lot longer. And that's where…

Story - 2
The narrative of Bleach is, in summary, a failure. The pacing of this show is god awful; and I even skipped the filler. The arcs were very generic and predictable, nothing noteworthy really. Now what is noteworthy, is how terrible the powerscaling in the show is. No show that I have seen has worse powerscaling than Bleach does. Without spoiling, mc beats a character in one arc, then he gets a big shounen power up, loses to someone in the next arc, and then the person that he beat in the previous arc shitstomps the person he lost to (without a big shounen power-up, mind you), this is not a one-time occurrence, it's frequent and happened not with just that one character but with multiple. People that lost to other people besides Ichigo also had similar…

Bleach is one of the best anime to ever exist. its a 10/10 people down play it because they dont understand the characters at all. most of them are sheep if you disagree just say your biased and explain.The first arc is one of the best new arcs with grand fish vs ichigo coward vs pride. it also shows a lot of foreshadowing like the quincy symbol on ichigo bed and also ichigo absorbing more reistu which are all foreshadows. Then the SS arc shows the best of ichigo titainism vs byuakuya legalism. then the next arc which i think is the best arc which grimmjow vs ichigo shows nature vs nurture and also him accepting himself as a hollow in the fight which then he showed his full power because he wasent scared about what other people think. people are blind or the just dont really watch the show…

What makes a good anime ? Is it the art ? Is it the story ? We can say a lot of things but in my opinion, what makes an anime legendary is that if you watch it again and again without getting bored, you crave for it when you got nothing else to watch, that makes a great anime. Bleach makes you feel that way. I've read the manga too and its a solid 10 points for me.

This will be my most controversial opinion yet; Bleach is the most under-rated anime ever made with how popular it is. It has a %45 filler rate and suffers from a classic shounen main protagonist style which can be seen as a bad thing but the story itself is far away from boring. It evolves with every arc and it's really enjoyab…

Don't let anyone tell you that Bleach is a bad anime. For some reason it has become a trend to hate on this masterpiece, mainly due to tiktok and other social media platforms. But this show is a masterpiece nonetheless. Some people may think it there are random power-ups, plotholes etc, but I know for a fact that those guys didn't read the manga which answered all these questions.
The Power System: 10/10 best I've seen
Character Design: 10/10 has the drippiest characters in shounen
Plot: 9/10 very entertaining, very enjoyable
Villains: 10/10 the best villains I've seen
OSTs: 10/10 the osts are absolute vibes, and bring it all together
Fights: 10/10 so many epic moments and cool powers that aren't rushed or prolonged
This anime in general is a 10/10, and you should give it a try. Watch ti…

Bleach has got to be one of the worst series I have ever watched and I've watched 113 series. I heard that the show will be returning soon so I have to deliver the facts as to why this series is dead
Firstly , The story in Bleach is so tedious and lacklustre , it is a blatant Yu Yu Hakusho ripoff and in short , it follows a teenage boy who gets chosen to be a part of the Spirit FBI and so he joins and as such is forced to wear a ridiculous outfit and fight with a kitchen knife
The power scaling in this show is all over the goddamn place , everytime I sneezed Ichigo had a new power up and I thought it couldn't get worse than Dragon Ball
The characters in this show are so generic and one-dimensional , You get your cliche dumb but strong (thanks to plot) MC , generic emo kid and generic…

One problem I noticed is people giving notes based on what others have said, without saying what they thought of such a subject. With the animes the same things, of course there will always be someone who will hate something, there is no ''perfection''.
To be honest the first 4 episodes made me drop the anime, but after reviewing dragon ball, I decided to give this one a chance. (It was anime that made me see the otakus differently). In the end I did not stop, I finished in 3 or 4 weeks or so. Well, knowing that, let's go to what I found.
History NOTE: 10
Ichigo, (the protagonist) has the ability to see spirits. One night, he meets a reaper named Rukia, she is impressed by his ability to see her, but in the midst of it all, a Hollow appears an ugly and evil beast. She decides to transfer…

Now i know that everyone saw that Bleach has sooo many Fillers and what if u don't want to watch them then skip them. The story is amazing Kubo Sensei wrote this amazing manga that turned into an amazing anime. And now Thousand years blood war for me the long wait was worth it. I recommend everyone to try and watch Bleach and see the amazing character development that is there.
Bleach has the story of Ichigo who is just an outstanding man and to follow his development in the anime is just amazing not just him but everybody else
I Recommend everyone to watch the anime and see how great it is!!

I do not care what people on the internet say about Bleach. It is a total masterpiece and have wonderfull and epic episodes.
I really hope that, they will adapt the final arc!
It deserves to have a proper ending, it sad that the final arc has not been adapted to the anime.
And the characters are awesome too.
The animation is different and uniqe
The voice actors for both the dub and sub are well chosen, they fit the characters perfectly
It is one of my most favorite, if not my favortie anime.
So yeah, that is my honest and true opinion of Bleach

I have been thinking of doing this review in the long time, and now I think it is time to do it,
I have been the bleach fan for over 10 years and I am still going to be it until I died, for this I am going to tell about it,
Bleach is my very first anime ever and I have watching many anime after that, but I couldn't find any similar anime as a bleach, bleach have something so special place in my heart, so I going to say what I am feeling about all of this though about bleach,
For me bleach is the best manga and anime series of all time,(yes I know bleach have many fillers)(yes I know bleach when down after arrancar arc)(and yes I know the bleach ending was extremely rushed) but if you could take it on a side, bleach has been an unbelievable journey and adventure on every arc (including fill…

Bleach will always warm my heart no matter how many times I watch it. There are scenes in this anime that I consider iconic to the anime community, regardless of how many people disagree with me, I truly believe Tite Kubo inspired greatness in so many fans. He has the most beautiful artwork I've seen in manga, and while the anime doesn't quite reach the level of skill Kubo possessed, it still presented a beautiful adaptation of his story in a way that impacted millions of people around the world.
You can argue that it has cliche moments, or maybe some flat characters, and yeah, the ending was extremely rushed (due to Kubo's poor relationship with his publishers), but none of that matters when compared to the enormous amount of fans who adored Bleach. A community of millions of people were…

Bleach is a good choice for you if you're looking to observe the process of the mainstream anime of the 2000's and what they tried to pull off to sell and stay relevant. Outside of the popularity that it got, I see Bleach as a very stale and mediocre anime, which I'll go and detail in the review later, but I'd like to start with the cause and then the effects.
You see, Bleach is a product of a time when a shounen reaches popularity to an extent that it can be milked, hinduism will then sue the studios and authors in question for treating their cattle with such disrespect, because those innocent cows have like four japanese businessmen attached to all ends of the udder, with them chugging the milk hard. The strategy was to sell it like it's crack-cocaine, because people will love it and pe…

Bleach is one of the three so-called "mainstream shonen animes"; together with Naruto and One Piece these three are immensely popular, and the topic of endless comparison among their fans set out to prove that their favorite is the best out of them. They simply refuse to exit their fanboyism to view the series in an objective light, which is a shame, because they are probably missing out on great adventures, which is the case of Bleach in many ways. If you want my review short and good, give Bleach a try no matter what people have said, as it, despite a lot of shortcomings, presents a most interesting and enthralling universe.
The concept seems pretty basic at first; there's the Soul Reapers (Shinigami), empowered souls who guide departed human souls to Soul Society, the afterlife deimen…

Bleach had great potential, but became annoying with poor character development and random powers.
Bleach has one of my favorite concepts ever. The Soul Society is awesome and the Gotei 13 are probably the best part of the show. They are squads composed of a multitude of Shinigami(Soul Reapers) and the show focuses more on the Captains and Lieutenants of those squads that are the most interesting characters in the show. Although, their could have been less squads(like 6) with less members in them(like 5) to have a more focused cast of characters that get more development. Hollows are also very interesting, they are souls that have either decide to let themselves be taken by evil or have been capture by other hollows. The basic concept is that the Soul Society dispatches Sou…

(FIRSTLY THIS SEIRES CONTAINS AT LEAST 40-55% FILLER! )
Bleach: This anime is a cluster-fuck!
Nothing more, nothing less.
The concept of bleach is actually decent, and it's execution was 8/10 right up till episode 63. The relationship between hollows , humans and shinigami(death gods) was interesting and continued to progress into a rescue mission . This anime honestly should of ended as that!
But instead we get shitty plot after plot hole, deus ex machina(shikai >bankai> hollow mask>hyper bolic time chamber) and basic shounen formula... the current manga for this series is in such a shit-hole that there is literally no hope for this series in my opinion ESPECIALLY with the death of Tsukada Masaaki the voice actor of yammamto.
Essentially, the plot for bleach has devo…

Bleach was an anime i got into after a recommendation from a friend. At the time I had caught up to naruto and was looking for another good shounen anime. I was introduced to bleach and I was hooked. However as time passed, the quality of the series took a significant dip. Here is why.
Story-
In the beginning Bleach had alot going for it. It had an interesting premise. Shinigami aka Death gods send Hollows or Evil spirits to the after life. It was comparable to ghost busters if i may say so. The 1st 15 episodes were of this nature, focusing on Ichigo Kurosaki the main character slaying hollows. The introduction of Renji And Byakuya shook things up and propelled the story into its 2nd arc, The Soul Society arc. This was were Bleach was at its peak: Brand new characters were introduced, The…

Bleach, yea after watching this that's what I want right now, a big bottle of bleach so I can wash some of my clothes and try to get my mind of this train wreck. Bleach is nothing but a dubious shire twisting down a landscape of softened pathways. Do you really wanna watch bleach? I mean do you? I would like to think if you are into anime to the point of being on this site you would be aware of much better shows. The characters, you know what they have such little character that they shouldn't be called characters, the connected lines in the shape of bodies with mouths that move during dialogue are horrible abominations with very little development or personality. After 23232 episodes Ichigo could get decapitated and I wouldn't give a fuck, I barely knew the guy. He was a kind of a delinqu…

Bleach, you were once considered by the anime community to be one of the greatest shows of all-time. Now you're considered one of the worst.
Let me start out by saying, this was my gateway anime, and it's what got me actively into anime 4 years ago. Despite its flaws, I still love this series, but not as much as I used to for many reasons which I'll get to in a bit.
Bleach is about a high school student named Ichigo Kurosaki, who can see the spirits of the dead, and later encounters Rukia Kuchiki, a Soul Reaper (Or Shinigami as it is in the fansubs) who helps send the deeply departed to the Soul Society, and slays Hallows to do that as well. She later ends up having to give him her powers in order for him to protect his family.
However this is a grave crime in the Soul Society, and Ruki…
