I think the first episode of Bleach is better than One Piece and Naruto.

I decided to start watching this anime but after the first episode I'm not quite sure how I feel about it, I wouldn't say it's good but it's not dreadful either. Although the character designs are quite neat I still don't like the idea that Ichigo is so OP from the get go with this "unknown power". I'll have to continue watching and see if my opinion changes.

Finally deciding to rip off the bandaid and start this monster of an anime. I've been putting this off for so long, so it's about time.
This episode was great. My first impressions:
Op is great, ed is good but skippable
Ichigo looks really cool, I'm a fan of the guts sword
Every frame with rukia was perfect. I already love her so much. Her VA reminds me of kyubei's VA from gintama which gives me all the more reason to love her.
Animation is dated but not bad

This show gets a lot of flak because of the filler I'm assuming but I will be skipping that. Really hope I can stick with this to the end because if so it will be my 2nd longest completion (203 eps minus filler)

basically i wanted to start rewatching before the new continuation series began, but i have free time in vacation and couldn't resist.
as like every shounen anime many question at first and introduction of the new MC, ichigo x rukia are great.

Have been wanting to start bleach a long time now but after the trailer for the 1000 year blood war arc I decided to start the anime and just finished episode (of course am gonna skip fillers and watch canon episodes only)

Episode 1 was amazing. Ichigo’s family is a weird one and wasn’t expecting it to lmao. The concepts of ghost, hollows and soul reapers is a really cool one. My first impressions of rukia were also interesting because I’ve known about characters like rukia, aizen and yhawch for a long time and when it came to rukia saying she wasn’t human like ichigo and said she was way much older than him caught me by surprise because I always thought she was around Ichigo’s age and that she became a soul reaper the same way ichigo did. Overall liking the show so far and that early 2000s feel always has a special place for me. 10/10 introduction.

It's about time I started watching the other 2 anime of the Big 3(Although I've still not completed Naruto lol)
Anyways with all this hype of the Bleach anime (1000 year blood war arc) coming.....I thought why not complete the first part....So yeah a pretty good start....we have Soul reapers, Wholes, and Hollows.....And the power system too is kinda interesting....Hopefully I'll be able to complete the remaining 365 episodes.....

Most of the episodes are fillers that you can skip. You can just search on Google: "which bleach episodes should I watch in order."

Oohh is it? So Bleach and Naruto have something in common lol :)
Anyways thanks for letting me know....although, the way I am I'd probably watch all the episodes no matter how boring it'll be....

This was such a massive nostalgia rush. I'm rewatching this for the first time since 2007. Bleach was my all time favorite anime back then. While this first episode hasn't aged particularly well, I have to say I'm excited to be kicking this journey off through the anime that defined my high school years.

Not what I expected, I thought Ichigo got too powerful too soon, but his personality and determination makes up for it. Pretty good start to the series.

Yeah that was pretty hype. I do like Ichigo as our main protagonist, dude is no pussy and doesn't hesitate whatsoever. After hearing that there's a way to save his family, he immediately tells Rukia to give him the sword.

While I'm sure I'll have a great time with this series, I'm still on the fence about committing to 366 episodes. I just don't have much left on my PTW list so I thought I'd give one of the big 3 a try; the shortest, and honestly the one that looks the most compelling to me as well. Another big reason for me to pick Bleach is to watch Thousand Year Blood War which is airing right now, and from the common perception it's rather phenomenal.

I think I'll finish the small handful of titles I have left in my PTW, and then come back to this. If I truly do decide to go for it, I'll most likely skip the over-abundance of fillers though. Might watch some videos to see if some fillers are worth watching though.

More outstanding than majority of first-episode shounen. Let's see if these hundreds of episodes are a small price to pay for the Thousand-Year Blood War

Been meaning to watch Bleach for the longest time but I've not been able to sit down and watch anime for a while, kind of an anime burnout but I easily sat through the first episode which I'm hoping will stay because I've heard really good things about bleach and want to see it all. I've been more into manga this year but I read the first chapter after watching the first episode and it's one of the first I've actually preferred the anime than the manga. I'll probably skip the fillers and watch them after but that first episode was really good!

God what a trip down memory lane, Bleach was one of the first animes I ever got into,my third specifically. I never got to finish it and only managed to do the first 7 episodes so hopefully I'll do a lot more with it this time. The opening, oh my god,the opening was so nostalgic as soon as it started playing just bam I'm back to being a teenager again. I didn't think I'd laugh quite abit throughout it when rewatching it especially Ichigo kicking Rukia in his room. I thought it was a great introduction, it's good to be watching this show again.
