Never watched Bleach but I agree, there's something about Rukia that's very appealing. Has that "it" girl factor. Kinda reminds me of Tsuyu from MHA, who has a different appeal but still her design stands out to me, as someone who didn't really get into the series.

Bleach is still the worst of the big 3
>>
>>283581778
It doesn't take long to read because the chapters are so light on dialog for the vast majority of the manga, and only one whole arc (Fullbring) and about 70% of TYBW are outright bad. I think it's worth reading just because Kubo is a really good illustrator. That being said, it has a ton of issues, subpar storytelling and very uninspired character writing. So without the lens of nostalgia, it's pretty weak on the whole. But the manga is definitely the better version of the story than the anime. Though I guess people tend to think the anime improves TYBW a fair bit, but I don't really take that seriously because as soon as the anime adaptation of that arc was announced revisionist history kicked in and people started pretending that it was actually popular and well-liked when in reality most people hated it when it was releasing weekly.
>>
>>283575469
Nobody cares.
>>
For me, it will always be Nemu
God she’s so hot and underrated
>>
>>283581901
I don’t like TYBW either. And I predicted it’s decline before airing. But the manga is very poor in terms of character relationships and proper worldbuilding. I think Bleach is good to decent up until the end of the fullbring arc.
>revisionist history kicked in and people started pretending that it was actually popular and well-liked when in reality most people hated it when it was releasing weekly.
>That was just marketing shills and astroturfing. Not everything on the internet is honest, don’t let the fake reviews fool you.

>Bleach in general just has a really, really bad problem with character bloat
I’m so fucking happy someone mentioned this. I don’t give a fuck about 98% of the cast. All I want to watch is Ichigo, Kenpachi, Aizen, Rukia, Grimmjow, and Ulquiorria. Call me selfish but I in all honestly could not careless about anything else. Holy fucking shit I despise most of Bleach’s cast.
>>
>>283580968
Kubo never planned for it, she just became the "clear choice" in the fanbase's eyes by accident and he stayed the course.
>>
>>283581901

Cour 3 on mal had a bigger ratio of negativity than the other cours. Not even the bots could save that one. I think it was cour 2 where the fatigue hit and cour 3 was the nail in the coffin.
>>
>>283575637
No, Bleach is easily one of the worst manga of its era
>>
>>283581901
This shitty revisionism is so annoying, like everyone wasn’t shitting on that garbage manga back then. I wonder which e-celeb retard started this crap
>>
>>283582692
I only see revisionism with shills and Kubo bootlickers. No one is watching Bleach over the other new gen anime. It had its chance to make an impact and fucked it up using this trashy arc.
>>
>>283575469
You must be pretty mad about the ending then huh
>>
>>283575469
Rukia looks like the type of girl who would be really weak to shoulder messages from behind and gentle nibbles on her ear lobes.
>>
>>283582761
It was always trash, you dumb fucking nigger. The same problems that happen in TYBW happen in all the other arcs too
>>
How the fuck are they going to make Bleach “as profitable as Naruto” with cour 4?
>>
>>283575469
What's the appeal of Rukia? I always thought she looked like a literal kid with ugly short (boy) hair.

>by accident
It's really hard to say it's by accident. She's on the very first page of the manga, she's the reason Ichigo became a Shinigami, she has really good chemistry with Ichigo and the goal of the first big story arc is to save her from being executed. Everything spelled out main heroine so it's not hard to see why she ended up being the "clear choice" for the fanbase.

I finished it today. it's mostly good but the final arc was disappointing. especially the second half. but other than that I had fun and I loved the art both the early art and the late art.
>>
I dont know how anyone could say tybw is movie quality. Ichigo vs Renji in fade to black looks a billions time better than Uryu vs Renji. And it’s actually has animation.
>>
The only ones shitting on Bleach are salty shippers and fans of other shonenshits
>>
>>283582692
The revisionism is slowly dying out, and more and more new videos keep popping up calling out this shitty series. Just today, an e-celeb dropped a video showing how Getsuga Tenshō is one of the worst attacks ever made in a shounen manga. I think once the anime ends, people will start hating on it again
>>
>>283584380
Or Bleach is just a really badly written manga. There’s nothing wrong with liking trash, just don’t pretend it’s better than it actually is.
>>
>>283583130
I agree, what I meant to say was that he always intended to ship Ichigo with Orihime. The accident was making Rukia superior in every way as the romantic interest of the self-insert MC.

It's probably just one guy. He brings up the same talking points and never elaborates on any of them.

Is this bait? The last arc is so shit that manga readers have been banking on the anime original additions to give us a more thorough story. There are enjoyable parts in TYBW, but it falls apart halfway through. Did you actually enjoy the last Yhwach battle?
>>
>>283585011
I don’t think part 1 is bad, I actually enjoyed it as an anime only. But I thought cour 2 and 3 were bad, not sure if I should continue.

Kubo has always been the villain of Bleach. He is one of the worst writers in shonen jump history. He has cool ideas but it lt’s better off in the hands of a competent writer.

Are you mentally ill? You say the same shit in every fucking Bleach thread, I can’t believe a series like Bleach has a schizo of this level kek

>>283585011
No that shit was so bad that I completely forgot about the existence of the quincies. I didn’t know their names either and that includes Yhwach. Zero memory of the last battle or the last arc for that matter yet I recalled everything else in Bleach.

>>283585511
Alot of these Kubo worships don’t realize that halfway through the story, Kubo began to despise Bleach. He didn’t care whether it flopped he just wanted to move on and forget about it. He hates listening to editors and he didn’t want any background art assistance. The man is screwed up in the head and I find it embarrassing people actually worship this bad writer.

Rukia is just petitite, not a kid. Loads of women just like her.

My dude you've just graduated from fanfiction into real writing
What's bad about it?
>>
>>283590527
It's not hypocrisy at all
The characters in one piece and naruto are way less bloaty than this
It's not the amount that matters, it's the place they have in the story and how important it is for them to be there
>>
>>283589456
This is what Demon Slayer did. It’s movie is projected to do 700 million+ while cour 3 was a forgotten nothing burger
>>
>>283590575
Lmao, you think the Konoha 11 or all the randos Edo Tensei'd in the war were not bloat but the actual Shinigami who all get their little slice of action and development are? Give me a fucking break. At least Bleach never became a gay drama about Ichigo and Uryu to the detriment of the cast like a certain shitty shounen did
>>
>>283590527
I didn’t want to feel this way but I simply do not give a fuck about anyone else other than the MC and a other select few. I especially get irritated when Ichigo is off screen for too long. I can’t stand a bloated cast if the worldbuilding doesn’t cooperate.
>>
>>283590690
Thank God Naruto treated its side cast like shit. I don’t have time for a bunch of nobodies.
>>
>>283581835
So you’d rather have a series with only 3 relevant characters like OP?
>>
>>283590741
What do you mean by the world building doesn't cooperate? Bleach has great worldbuilding; look at all the lore surrounding the Soul King or Ichigo's hero journey and the factors involved people wrote essays about. How does that impact character bloat for you?
>>
>>283590828
Then that's a you issue. A good writer doesn't create named and relevant characters just to pad out the world; you need to develop them. Kubo did that even with one's who were sidelined by the plot like Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizurio, who appeared more than they had any right to.
>>
>>283590868
I don’t know if it’s Kubo’s writing style but I can’t stand most of the side cast. That’s is just how I felt while reading and watching it.
>>
Considering JJK fanbase is mostly women maybe Bleach would’ve benefited from fujos and shippers.
>>
>>283590934
Kubo isn’t a good writer lol.
>>
>>283590690
I didn't say Naruto didn't have a problem at all
Just that it's less of a problem
>>
>>283591065
I'd sau he's better than either Oda or Kishimoto
>>283591084
The final arc alone should prove you wrong.
>>
>>283591172
No I say he’s worse because the end of the day the final product is what matters. I think Kubo’s ideas and concepts are great but his execution pales in comparison to other writers.
>>
>>283582411
>Kubo never planned for it
>>
I do not care for Renji
>>
>>283591397
Renji isn’t the best but he’s still superior to Ichigo’s friends imo.

Pierrot films ruined Osomatsu 4th season and is getting backlash from japanese fans for derailing too much from what made the original good in both writing and style.
This company is such a joke.
>>
>>283591649
it’s specifically tominaga’s line that has a string of flops. Everything this man touches ends up failing. During the release of cour 3 he admits pierrot has a reputation for poor global reach which is needed to thrive in the anime department. He also ruined Akatsuki no Yona’s anime which is one of the highest selling shoujos in japan.

Fair. But get this: I watched Bleach for Lucy.
>Anon wtf were you smoking
What happened is that I once saw a Fairy Tail lewd AMV when I was 13 that got me wanting to watch FT for the PLOT, but by mere association I got it mixed up with Bleach after a month or two had passed since I watched the AMV, so I jumped into Bleach expecting FT, but kept watching even after I realized it was something else because Bleach happened to be cooler and more intriguing than I was horny for Lucy at the time. Now, Rukia, since you mention her, stood out to me as a fantastic female character in that she was remarkably noble and likeable without relying on love or sex appeal to be popular (even though she's fairly charming), the kind of girl you're not particularly into but strongly admire and wouldn't mind going all the way with. And so it wouldn't be after roughly 80 episodes of Bleach (things lost steam after Soul Society and the anime started to feel like a chore) that I would pick up FT as a 14 year old. I got into Bleach as a detour, but it's one I don't regret taking.
>>
>>283593757
It’s quite ironic how this shill bleach cult like to trash on Abe but gaslit Taguchi as a director, as if he wasn’t director of the most obnoxious Pierrot adaptation, Twin Star Exorcists. He also directed Tunnel to summer movie and rushed the whole story cutting the key plot points.
>>
>>283575637
No, she ends up getting with the biggest jobber in the series who wanted to execute her instead of the guy who looks like her first love.

All so some uninteresting titcow could win.
>>
>>283581901
It's not revisionism. Only people who stick with the manga to the end are actually excited for the anime, which means they probably have no issue with it in the first place.
There are people outside your bubble.
>>
>>283593986
Considering the loss of interest from cour to cour. I’d say it’s history repeating itself all over again.
>>
>>283590690
Bad comparison, Uryu is one of the worst rivals I’ve ever seen in any shonen and his design is dogshit. Giving him sasuke’s voice is the cringest shit ever. A face only bleachtards can like.
