I always wandered about Bleach and why is it so popular, now I see it. The first episode, admit it, kind of boring. And some people give up On whole thing, but don't! It really is amazing gets interesting every second. I spend night nonstop watching episodes, because I liked it so much. And never skipped a episode or dropped it once.
Art-9: At fist art was shitty because it was just the begging, fuzzy and not high quality drawings. After a while it got much better, now is very hd. I would give it a 10 if the creator (Tite Kubo) wan't a pervert and

draw giant breasts on every female character (not Rukia). Some characters are very interesting (arranacrs, hollows) and some clothes that characters wear are too revealing (Rengiku, Hallbel) Also a lot of male are attractive (Ichigo)
Sound-10: I LOVE IT! the opening themes are fantastic! I don't listen to much closing themes. Because of Bleach I find my self in to Japanese music. Plus the sound effects are the best I ever heard. Whenever there is a battle EPIC MUSIC! Something funny happening, the music just adds and makes it more funny! And the best of all are the sad moment soundtracks. Whenever there is something sad happening, the soundtracks lead me to tears. It the best thing about bleach. Most of all when "number one" is playing, you know Ichigo is gonna kick ass. It makes me exited.
Characters- 8: Could do better. That's the part where it makes me mad about bleach. Ichigo half shinigami and human, gets all this power. He gets stronger and kicks ass until he socks again! After he rescued Rukia, he all super strong and shit. But in the next arc he's all dam weak again.He gets strong, but then he becomes week again! It's like a cycle! It's kind of like, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOU ICHIGO! YOU STINK! Too much about the main character, not enough concentration on the others. Ichigo seems like the only one getting stronger! Maybe some characters like Uryu and Rukia are gaining more powers. But still so dam week! In some battles they are so strong and awesome, in others they stink! It's like they got weaker! But I really love most of the characters. Accept Orehime who is constantly crying, so dam useless. And doesn't use her dam power at all! When ichigo is on his way to death all she can do is cry cry cry! The only use of her self she can make his her healing power! However she does encourage Ichigo to keep on fighting for her sake! But gets kidnapped and bullied by opponents stronger then her! Forget Orehime, there are also a lot awesome female characters, like Rukia, Yoruichi, Soi Fon and others.
Dubbig-8.5 He dubs were great at first but over time the character voices changed. And to worse! They already changed awesome voice actors for Chad, Urahara and Kenpachi! All of them were awesome, now they sock! But I still love the main voice cast, Ichigo, Rukia. Orehime and such. And I think Johnny Yong Bosh was born to dub Ichigo! He does great job with the bankai, getsuga tenshoue, and ichigo's tone according to the mood. And Vic as Ikaku is bit a surprise, but as always he does an amazing job. I always preferred dubs over subs, and this one of them. So check out the dub first, maybe you might like it. Personally I do not like the sub voices.
Plot/Story-9: could be better. Despite the fact most people don't like the plot I'm ok with it. In every arc Ichigo has to fight a a strong bad guy, and he gets stronger an so on. I don't see why people have a problem with the plot. The filler arcs are pretty interesting. And some filler episode are good too. I love the random amount of charters there are. Unllike Naruto with all ninjas. Bleach has all rendom characters (hollows, soul reapers, arrancars, bounts, quincy...) it's very interesting to know the ability of every character.
Weapons-10: Like before very character has unique powers, and always fun to find out. Some might have a Zanpakuto, while others have a ceto, or doll, or reseraccion form.
Shikai is when the owner finds out the name of his Zanpakuto it turns different shape and size. Ex: Rukia's Sode no Shiroyuki.
Bankai or final release: is even a highher level, they become stronger, with all this awsome ability, even their clothes change. Ex: Byakuya's Senbonzakura Kagiyoshi.
The fights are epic. With characters revealing there awsome abilities. But also predictable, Ichigo fights, he's good so far, then it seems like he's loosing then at the last moment he wins...
Despite all of the complains and all the flaws Bleach has. For me it's my favorite anime serious ever. Few more things: Not much romance: There is no atrraction between Rukia and Ichigo, or Orehime and Ichigo, whatsoever!! But few cute scenes, and a possibly a confession.
Enjoyment is 10 because since I watched I don't stop going. Something new and awsome happens in every episode.
Overall 9: I have may other anime I could give a 10 to and might be better then bleach. But so far it's my favorite anime.
Don't give up on this anime after one episode or just because elf fillers, if you do, you will be missing a lot of excitement. Give this anime a try at keat once, and don't listen to other people bitching about it being waste of time. Hopefully what I wrote make sense, and sorry if something is wrong with my English. Hopefully u will find this anime enjoyable, and this review helpful.
