Yes, they're born to balance the flow of souls, which is disrupted by hollows and quincies.
Also to breed stronger shinigami to protect soul society.
Byakuya should be born a ghost.

Hey, I've started Bleach few days ago and it's definitely a fun ride so far, I got what I expected. Simple and enjoyable, does it job well.

Anyway, I'm on episode 44 and there is a thing that's bugging me, so I need some explanation regarding the Soul Society and the living world.

Shinigami send Hollows and Pluses to the Soul Society, right? So the residents of Rukongai are basically dead people, but are there also ghosts that are already born as ghosts? I mean, Rukia and Renji grew up there, right? Already as a ghosts. They have never been alive?


Rukia died a human, then passed on. Renji too I'm assuming, since they were all looking for their families in Rukongai.

And like Introver hinted at, there is a cycle of rebirth involved. In reality, Soul Society is no different to the Human Realm bar the fact that it's made of Reishi (spiritual particles) while the Human Realm is composed of Kishi (i.e atoms basically). People are born in both worlds and go back and forth between the two as they die in each. So being born in SS as is the case with Noble families like Byakuya's doesn't mean you never were alive. They're both "living" worlds, with just earthly beings in one, and spiritual beings in the other, and souls getting recycled from each world.

Compared to one piece slow ass pacing and naruto fillers, bleach is a godsend.
It's just that most of the bleach fans are mature adults and are just waiting for the anime to come back.
Because we will wait years for a quality anime instead of a cheaply done anime.

Maybe he means to say it was a masterpiece at the start but is still great but that it won't be around after another few years so we have to treat it sort of as our book of revelation.

So which part of my post was hating on Bleach? Fanboys assume everything. And you needed to shit on the other two to boost your morale. But that part was probably trolling so whatever.

SS arc was a masterpiece compared to Arrancar arc.

I have my fingers crossed. AT being heavily involved and the anime not following a manga so as to have no need for fillers gives me hope. The only things I'm worried about is the whole idea of retelling Battle of Gods and the possibility of Toei cheaping out with the animation.

I hope the BoG arc lasts about 15-20 eps, I'm not so excited about this one. The rest I don't care, as long as it's not too slow paced.

Vegeta must defeat a major villain this time. But apparently Akira Toriyama doesn't like him so I'm not expecting any impressive feats from him.

@babymimi I just can't wait for when they arrive in the other universe and begin looking for the other Dragon Balls. People kind of over exaggerate that. AT even if he dislikes Vegeta has always given him a lot of focus. For me I'm not that interested in Vegeta I'm more hoping for Piccolo and the human z fighters to get some kind of attention. I haven't seen Resurrection of F yet but it was good how the human z fighters actually took part in the fighting.

Yes, that's why I hope the whole thing about re-telling the BoG story is as short as possible. I don't mind the Frieza arc since I haven't seen the movie yet (I may watch it next year at this rate). He does get a lot of screentime but he never really defeated a main villain. For someone who trains that much you'd think he would've caught up on Goku by now but no. I agree about the Piccolo part, I don't care for the human z fighters anymore honestly. I hope Piccolo does more than just saving Gohan like in every movies.

I hope it isn't long as well. Vegeta even though by himself he hasn't defeated a villain he has been influential in their defeat. He helped distract Cell so Gohan could land the finishing blow and it was his plan that led to Kid Buu's defeat. Also in Resurrection of F he has caught up with Goku. The reason he wasn't able to catch up with Goku before is because he never trained under any of the Kais or anyone for that matter, he always trained alone. Resurrection of F changed that because he was willing to train under a sensei like Goku. I don't care for Yamcha , Chiaotzu , Yajirobe but I want to see more of Tien, Krillin and Master Roshi.

Not sure I haven't seen it yet. Going by what AT said that makes sense. It's 6 months after the Buu fight so it would start off with cool down episodes. You know those episodes in every battle shonen after a big fight where the characters are just chilling until the next arc begins.

Just done watching Dragon Ball super. The Big 3´s Dad is back again.

Does anybody remember Mr Satan being that honorable?
Anyway it´s a nice layer to his character if I didt miss it during Z.
I mean the guy was just a total goof before and what´s with the severe design change, he was massively beefy in Z and now he looks like his head is half of his size.

Also looks like that´s where Toei´s animation budget One Piece goes. Here and into Sailor Moon.

Heh, but even if it was true, he'd just have more work since neither of the works are tied up. Especially HxH, the disjointedness of the arcs in it will be his downfall. Maybe he already gave up.

Jokes aside everyhing is possible till proven otherwise, it is possible but unlikely we didn´t get to see officially Kishi´s face till Naruto ended and Oda took also around 10 years to release a picture. It´s nothing special for mangaka to hide their faces.
