If you like blood, swords, and boobs, the Bleach and Akame ga Kill! are for you. If you are a casual anime fan, who is looking for a general anime expierence including awe-inspiring art work, a decent storyline, with decent characters and epic battle scenes, the Bleach is for you. Following in the footsteps of Ichigo Kurosaki, we find out that Ichigo is about to learn the full extent of the universe; including the realms of the dead and 'soul reapers'. During Ichigo's travels, he encounters some wild and wacky characters; a beautiful soul reaper who cant draw called Rukia, a talking teddy bear named Kon, a man obsessed with fighting called 'Kenpachi', and many more. Meanwhile, Akama ga Kill! Reaches out to the more hardcore anime fan; with more blood, guts, and R17+ content then you can throw a book at, keep this away from children! We follow Tatsumi, a young swordsmen who is looking to get money for his crumbling village, that is tight on finance due to the corrupt imperial government. Finding out that the capital is a lot more corrupt then he originally thought it was, Tatsumi joins Night Raid, a guild of assassins that use Teigu (Imperial Arms) as their signiture weapons. These range from a sword that poisons people, a pair of scissors that can cut anything, a pair of gloves that produce razor thin wire, and even a bullet less gun. Both Bleach and Akame ga Kill! have their ups and downs; Bleach is almost 400 episodes, and that is a little bit too long to count on. But Akame ga Kill! is only 20-odd episodes, but differs from the manga, and the ending is rather shoddy at best. However, I would pay to see Aizen from Bleach against Esdeath from Akame ga Kill!. The Yaegers vs The Arrancar would be icing on the cake. In short, if you watch anime as a form of entertainment, watch Bleach. If you watch anime because it enthralls you, and you love everything about it, pick up Akame ga Kill! Bleach - 7.5/10 Akame ga Kill! - 9/10
