Firstly,

I have to say its not easy to rate an anime like bleach, an anime which has a few arcs are very like to have one or two arcs which aren't very good.

The storyline for bleach was at its best at the first Arc where ichigo has to save rukia .This is where the story was far more complicated and unpredictable compared to the later arcs. The storyline in the later arcs is just beat up bad guys.

A major weakness in the anime is the fillers, fillers generally generate a lot of hate among the anime fans. For one, ichigo's bankai . One ... of the best scenes for bleach was when he first used his bankai againt kuchiki byakuya , during the fight ichigo looked so strong . However when he used bankai in the fillers in the later episodes he looked so silly and weak. In the fillers, he was never consistent, this is a very bad downside.

The art for bleach was actually very good for its time of production. However, the fillers spoiled much of it . the art for some of the fillers were horribly made. But overall id say the art for bleach is fairly good.

Sound, the sound for bleach really gets you into the mood when u first hear it especially those boss fight scenes.

The character for bleach was very good in the beginning, especially in the first arc. His last progress for me was when he fought ulquiorra on top of the hollow dome. When he unleashed his full hollow powers, and then later on unleashing getsuga. But the progress from his bankai to his later powers are very slow and bad.
I felt that ichigo should have learn some kidou (magic) . And make the fight scenes more tactical . So the fight scenes will become more intelligent rather than just beating the enemy time after time.

I really enjoyed the first arc of bleach. It was the best. The later arcs was not so bad. One of the most recent arc with Ginjo in it left a distaste in my mouth. In my opinion, they should have ended it when Aizen got beaten by ichigo after he used getsuga.

The biggest weakness for bleach was the fillers and the lack of abilities and the ginjo arc, if they had managed this factors, I would have given bleach a much better review probably scoring a 9. I believe bleach is overrated because of the reviews given by new anime viewers. Those new anime viewers are probably inexperienced and would compare their anime to cartoons rather than anime to anime overall in that genre.

Overall, Bleach was one of my favourite anime's but I would only give it a 5.
