Black, white... combination of those are the combination of our dreams. Dreams that one day we shall win this ever lasting darkness and keep the balance of the world as it is.
This is the world dedicated to Bleach and everything that follows around it.
Yuup, understand him completely.. That's how I am when I get in my toilets. First of all I make sure that everyone understands their position, put up a straight face and tell them to their own.. Yuup..
Joke on the side, I may sometimes put short posts like this about the new manga chapters of Bleach, just like I did months ago, except little more random this time.
Hello Bleach fans and likes! It has been a while since I posted my last post, so I am going to do an important one now, because the arc is already deeply cut into the story, so without further ado let's see what we got here~!
First things first, visual impressions.. They are, splendid! Bleach unlike some other three-digit-number of episodes animes actually keeps on increasing quality of the animations, shading, colors and just the overall drawing. It is actually quite nicer and more smooth looking that it was by now with more details and the ones that we can actually recognize. It is also good how they set the tone for the characters and how they changed after 17 months. I
especially like all the shading, lighting and darkness effects.
The soundtrack is for one of the rare times, recycled from the previous soundtracks. But is that a bad thing? Not actually, they still haven't made a new one and based on how many songs they have (150+) they have some pretty good ones which they can always fit in and some quite memorable and nostalgic. That gets a big plus~!
And now for the main story and presentation... It is so nostalgic. Even though it is so different than when the Bleach started it still takes you back to that time and you enjoy watching it from the beginning taking it as complete new arc. It is so well done and you will actually try to understand the characters more now because they have their expanded personalities and back stories.
Also what is good is that it focuses mostly on the human characters (well at least until later in the arc) so that might add to the nostalgic factor as well.
There are also many new characters and the story about fullbringers (that thing that Sado, Orihime and Ishida have) is explained more into this one and it plays a key role.
Ichigo is of of course without its powers, but will he manage to take them back? Well the set of events will unfold for him to do that, but he will also get many other side ones to that too.
And as always Bleach is full of comedy. Funny or not, you will still enjoy it. But still you can feel how this series has matured along with characters, getting a more darker and serious tone, but still keeping the goofy background (or am I the only one who notices these things?).
Well anyway, as for everyone and not only the Bleach fans, I highly recommend this. It has been so long since I really cheered for Bleach and it feels waiting the whole week for an episode far more enjoyable.
Tite Kubo, we give you our full support~!
Hey hey hey, Bleach fans and haters, how are you all doing?^^ Well as for yesterday (or the day before, depends do you live closer or not to Japan… the time zones I mean) the filler arc that was going around for like 5-6 months, I don’t even know anymore, has finally come to end.
Now let’s talk about something interesting in the last episode:
1) The last episode was actually a combination of filler added parts AND original manga ending. It comes that they wanted to actually do the original manga ending but since it was a filler there, they cut that out only to somehow combine later. Not badly done actually.
2) There are many MANY IchiRukia moments!! Okay, not that many like in some other more romancing animes, but for Bleach standards, it is. It could mean because at the end they actually go separate ways and she disappears. But also because they were friends for that long time. Whole episode is about them with only minor sight of other characters. At the ending part we can even see all the moments that they spent together. Buuuut, still they say that they are friends, so… don’t get your hopes up there IchiRukia fans just yet. We have to wait until the true end of Bleach to see will something happen.
3) The last thing is that shadings, highlights and drawings in general (pictures below, look) were a lot better done that usual. It may come because it is the end and such, but still they have developed and advanced in this part in general I think.
So starting next week, Bleach will resume from the manga and the all brand new Fullbringer (Substitute shinigami or some other name) arc.
The last episode of Bleach of course that came out... After this one there is only one episode left of this filler arc, but before that let me talk about this episode.
Surprisingly it was TOO good! The end how it should be, with lot of action, some touching moments there and how it all comes together at the end is even above the average not only of the filler but normal episodes as well.
The animations and music was also well introduced and animations at one moment looked almost the same as from the movie. So yeah, I can honestly say that I really enjoyed in this episode. :)
Now the other thing that I want to say is that I noticed by the preview of the next episode that it seems that they are going to be airing the new season and arc of Bleach in general in a new quality. That means different animations and colorings, which look a lot better and remind me actually on the manga somehow. BUT those were only my impressions from the preview, we have to wait for the actual show to see if they did that.^^
The remains of Soul Society after the final fight..
Wow, it has been some time since I posted here... Well now I do, so hello everyone! ^_^
Speaking about Bleach, there are some things that everyone should now. One is that I read some info on Bleach upcoming episodes and arcs today on wikipedia, but when I went there today... There is no topic on 16th arc!! o_O
It just disappeared withing few hours. I always knew that we are not alone.. XD But seriously.
Still I do remember what was written there. One of those things is that this Gotei 13 invasion force (or whatever the name of Kageroza arc is) is coming to an end with just two more episodes (counting the one that has come out today).
After that or on 11th of October, the 16th arc or the Fullbringer arc as someone would like to call is coming out. The manga is based on that one, so no more fillers folks (until however they hit another 30 or such episodes, then we are back on track XP).
Also they said who will sing in the opening and closing of these arcs.. No idea, can't remember their names, but it is a popular girl based Japanese pop-rock band, so it ought to be good.
As for these endings.. They are actually awesome!! I like the song at the end and how in every ending they show different scenes from anime (not counting the fillers) from each arc per episode. It is pretty nostalgic for that.
~ Well then so long and enjoy in these last episodes of this arc!
