Thinking about watching this series, after seeing a few ytb short about it. Looks like a lengthy series with 366 episodes, but do you guys recommend it?
>>283590179most episodes are filler, so its shorter than that, but its better than most shounen slop
Please care about bleach...
>>283590179Yeah, it's one of the big 3 for a reason. But the manga is a better experience, especially with how the anime altered things.>>283590375Not to forget how they mixed canon stuff with filler episodes. God, I hate Pierrot.
>>283590179I loved it back in the day but it aged poorly. You are better off watching something modern that iterated and improved on the Bleach formula. Like Jujutsu Kaisen or Demon Slayer.
>>283590179the early filler adds to it since the manga was pressured to get to teh stakes faster at the expense of the core cast bonding over basic ghost hunts, but once they get to soul society you should skip all the filler arcs
>>283590179Read it then watch it. The manga becomes real artsy later on that just doesn't translate well with the anime. If it wasn't for the god tier ost, OP, and ED the anime would be a hard skip. Bonus points, read it with /a/ if someone ever does another read through. Bleach is a fucking is a comedic circus on a speeding train track derailing off the tracks when you read it with /a/. You truly missed out not reading it when it was still on going.
>>283590574Jujutsu did not improve on the formula you are high to even suggest that. Hell its not even like Bleach its more like Naruto. Demon Slayer I havent seen but Jujutsu is ass compared to Bleach. The MC is joke, majority of the characters suck and the power system is really forgettable.>>283590179I wouldnt recommend it unless you just need some shonen slop. If youre alright with that then watch the anime raw up until the end of the Soul Society arc(IE when everyone pretty much goes "Oh those Ryoka are cool") and look up a guide of what episodes are filler and skip the filler.
>>283590179Don’t waste your time, Bleach is the worst shounen of its generation, watching that shit will only piss you off with how dumb it is
>>283592937This. I watched blood war and that turned into one of the worst pieces of fiction I’ve ever laid my eyes on.
>>283590179Read the manga. You can watch the fights in anime though.Then when you finish Fullbring Arc (chapter 470 or so) go straight to TYBW anime and drop the manga entirely.
>>283592631Boomer take. JJK is basically Bleach with aura farming and better fights.
>>283594448Its really not. As a quick comparison Yuji is bland compared to Ichigo who you can define as cool and an annoying retarded brat all at the same time. Theres no equivalent for Captains it again is more like Naruto with the whole ranking shit and then theres the power system that again is more like Naruto with how they like to stress basic fundamentals like the weaver basket shit than how much power someone has.
>>283590179i just watched this for the drip
>>283594448>JJK is basically Bleach with aura farming and better fights.Nice joke
>>283590179I keep forgetting how much canned anime hijinks the first season had. Wish more of the show was like that.
>>283590179Watch the first arc and then switch to the manga
>>283590179No, it's a boring slog with less substance than even Naruto.
>>283594659Am I the only one who thought Gojo was the main character. I had no idea who yuji was.
>>2835904653 comments until someone mentioned the big 3
It's a fun shounen to watch and read. I like the art direction, the fashion, the flamenco soundtrack when they go to ghost Mexico, and everything about Aizen. Like others said, identify and skip the filler.
Not even Jump is confident in the last arc characters....
>>283594914The community pretty much dickrides Gojo and he had a special based around him so probably not.Its well deserved though because the JJK cast is basically Narutos but more dynamically fucked. Gojo(Kakashi) and Megumi(Sasuke) more or less drown out Yuji(Naruto) in relevance even his despite his connection with the strongest being of the universe.
>>283595578What's Yuji's role in JJK if Gojo and the rest fucked him over???
>>283590179>actually using a somehow worse version of tiktok>abbreviating youtube
>>283594659>Yuji is bland compared to IchigoI don't understand the take that Yuji is bland when he's easily the most compelling character in the manga especially after Shibuya. Definitely has more going on than fucking Ichigo of all characters.
>>283595780His role is being a strong but kind kid who keeps getting traumatized by the ruthlessness of the curses around him. Thats really kinda all there is to the character. He fucks around a bit at the start but the trauma makes him start being stonefaced.It doesnt produce the effect that Gege really wants because Yuji is just really naive to begin with. Like he actually begs his inner demon to save someone and gets mad when he obviously laughs and does not give a shit.
>>283596072>I don't understand the take that Yuji is bland when he's easily the most compelling character in the manga>Gojo is the most compelling character in the manga Fixed.
>>283596072Hes not. I was waiting for him to die myself with the way Gege killed one of his mentors and made him look helpless in the grand schemes of Sukuna alon top of giving him scars. He added nothing anyone cared about to scenes and when JJK was still being serialized people started mocking the characters massive irrelevancy by calling him COGjiSay what you will about Ichigo but Kubo Tite made sure that at the end of the day Ichigo had style and people who read Bleach will never forget that he was a punk that didnt just have pathetic moments he also had cool moments.
Now I'm curious has there been any conflict between Gojofags and Yujifags for this shit. Is Gege a fucking idiot?
>>283596305Not as bad as Sanji and Zorotards arguing.
It's got great characters and build up but this only serves to ultimately disappoint as no character gets a satisfying arc. Instead of exploring one of the 3 dozen characters introduced in the first 2 arcs, you get 2 dozen new characters every arc that also serve no purpose other than "here new bad guy, bankai, fight"It gets incredibly bland....but you will want it to be good the whole time. It's heartbreaking but worth watching through the soul society arc (skip filler and watch subs)
>>283596351Kubo's "I DO WHATEVER I WANT TO STOPPED LISTENING TO MY EDITOR HAHAHAHA">Kubo's hack writing exposed>Bleach sales decline What a fucking loser this writer is.
>>283594448JJK feels more like Togashi's work to me than Kubo's.
echoing the "watch subs"there's a je ne sais quoi when Japanese men are in the middle of a sword fight and they start talking about their feelings in Spanishhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_igvokycaw
>>283596427Listening to the Editors are the reason sales declined. Thats why the Soul Society hijack shit happened.
>>283596698Nah Kubo admits to not giving a fuck about his editor. He doesn't like being told what to draw. Unless Kubo is a chronic liar which makes him look like an even bigger idiot.
>>283592138
I miss the times when this image was all over the front page..
Aizen? Weaker than Chad
>>283596351Why does this guy have Voldemort in his throat?
>>283597267>>283597349When are you fags going to admit Aizen did not live up to the hype?
>>283590179its worth watching to understand the hentai better.but its the same as other shonens. It has it's moments but it's mostly drudgery with half episode long recaps, 20 second pan ins of characters faces, long ass dialogue that feels like it's there simply because they are struggling to fill the run time and such.
>>283598380Aizen made the entirity of Soul Society look like helpless babies after chapters of hyping them up by introducing the concept that no matter how broken their abilities are it doesnt matter if his powerlevel was that much higher and it was. This is also on top of how he set up the Arrancars to be distractions at best and successfully manipulate Orihime into a practically NTR plot.THEN he was so absurdly fucking strong at the end of things they couldnt even KILL him. He definitely did.
>>283590179Bleach? Best animanga.
>>283598366watch Where The Dead Go To Die
Don't
Do it. I give you permission to do it. Do it when in a state of deep sleep deprivation when the sun won't be up for hours
>>283590179I started watching it at the beginning of the year and went a "season" a month. Overall been really enjoying it but the 2 months of bounts could have been fine but it felt they had ideas for 26 episodes but were told to make it 52.
