I'm almost at the end of the long and adventurous Arrancar arc.I skipped all the fillers in between so as not to dilute the enjoyment.Usually,I don't care for filler arcs,but two filler arcs caught my eye - The Zanpakuto Betrayal arc and the Gotei 13 Invasion arc.So,wanted to ask if they are worth watching the extra 30 episodes

I can’t really remember all of them but what I do remember is that the bount arc is a huge waste of time so definitely do not go back and watch that

I'm a big fan of bleach but I don't really think you should watch the fillers but at the end of the day it's all about personal preference

If you want to see their weapons in character form then yeah, the Z arc is fun.

There both some pretty fun arcs that were pretty enjoyable imo. I’d say if you want to watch more bleach definitely check them out.

I sat through all the fillers as I’m sort of a “completionist” and would feel weird if I didn’t. Personally, I’d say you can check out the fillers and if you don’t like it then skip it

The Bount arc was my favourite but could have really call it filler since Jin Kariya does make an appearance in a story arc

Well A) I don’t like the idea of skipping episodes, I get a feeling of incompleteness
B) Not only do I enjoy the main story, I also really enjoyed the characters. So if watching fillers mean I get to see more of them, regardless of if it impacts the main story or not. Then I’m all for it.
Like for example: a lot of anime’s or people who like anime, like to see a “Fun beach episode” but some shows that don’t have it, people have to make up their own “beach episode”. But in this case with bleach, they have a beach episode so I get to *see* it instead of making it up on my own. Basically I’m just as invested with the characters as I am with the main story.

Oh well in that case I understand completely😂. As long as your enjoying it then good for you. Your original message kinda made it sound like it was a chore is all, forget I said anything😅

Tbh most of the fillers suck, although I don't remember all of them I think there were a couple of arcs that I thought was good compared to the rest of the fillers

my opinion from memory is that the vampire arc I think was pretty bad, I can’t remember the rest but I don’t think I skipped them meaning that they’re probably alright

the fillers suck, just like everything else in this god forsaken show. It was so bad, I didn't even bother watching more than the first 10 episodes of the dang thing. ichigo and everyone around him is obviously a dumb idiot, just like you.

I don't understand how you can say something sucks when you haven't bothered to watch it. It just doesn't make sense to me...

It’s been a while but if I rember right theZanpakuto was the better of the two but not by much (only because you get to see them in human form )

It was good until Ichigo literally became an abomination of EVERYTHING the manga has. As for filler arcs, it was too forgettable but I believe if my memory serves me right, it had the same problem as the mainline plot.

No... it ruins the Main Story by suddenly inserting it between Hueco Mundo Arcs

I’d go as far to say that Bleach has one of the better filler arcs out there right now. The Bount, Gotei 13 or even the Zanpakuto are all really solid arcs that are more relevant to the story then other anime’s filler arc that have nothing to do with the story at all. It is all personal preference though at the end of the day. If you don’t like filler arcs then it won’t be for you.

Well if you're watching it for the first time then imo you should just watch the whole series including the fillers for the sake of completion...
But if you find it boring then you can simply skip it...
Just give it try and see for yourself...

Skip filler arcs majority are bad. If you want to know if specific fillers are good search them up when you're watching them and skip if they seem bad to you, because everyone has personal preferences. For single filler episodes just start watching them and if they seem bad skip onto the next.

ok if we're judging tastes here i'll go right ahead :) - Kimetsu no yaiba 9/10 akame ga kill 7/10 and darling in the franx 8/10. You are an extremely ignorant guy, with strong opinions but no experience to back it up. You're taste is incredibly bad and you have no right to judge others like you have. I'd like you to try be more civil as you are just embarrassing yourself :) I would respect your awful taste if you'd had respected everyone else's.

For the most part the filler arcs are very hit-or-miss in their pacing and structure, however one point I will defend is that - with the exception of the Bounts - the main antagonists of each arc are generally quite interesting and well developed. If you’re into tragic anti-villains, then I recommend giving them a watch.

As a person who also dropped bleach for years in the bout arc I suggest that you watch the Invading Gotei 13 arc. While the it is slow in the begining and far from perfect, there is a huge animation and pacing increase, I think that the villain was quite convincing and felt a lot like early bleach. As long as you struggle through the begining episodes you'll enjoy it. I'd you decide to skip it watch the endings of 330 to 341, as they are some of the best endings. It has amazing music and does this really cool flashback of the whole series through different characters
