|Act I| Story [7]
Basically what the heck is 'Bleach' about ? Lemme explain it to you shortly. 'Bleach' is all about fighting, reaching new levels of strength and other minor stuff that entertains a shounen (boy). The main protagonist is 'Kurosaki Ichigo', a boy who became a substitute shinigami in order to defend his loved ones. I do not want to spoil the story to you, but i'll tell ya why i've given it a 7. From the very beginning 'Bleach' is very interesting to watch and your organism asks for more. It begins to act like some sort of fuel to you. Why does this happen ? Because 'Bleach' is a damn awesome show at its early stage (~1-60). But after that fillers begin to show up and it makes you feel a bit disappointed. Also the actual plot weakens and if you follow closely then you will notice some plot holes and things that do not make any sense. All in all it is quite good for a long-running anime.
|Act II| Art [9]
Maybe some of you will disagree but ,man, i like the 4:3 aspect ratio format more than the 16:9 one. I'm thankful that 'Bleach' kept this ratio for about 150 episodes. So back to the point. The art in this show is about excellent. Pierrot did a good job at animating 'Bleach' cause the art is so smooth and few stuff is censored. In terms of art 'Bleach' is great and there are not any issues regarding it.
|Act III| Sound [8]
Well 'Bleach' has got awesome openings and endings. There aren't any that i disliked, there are only some that i found annoying after a period of time. Also there are several songs in the original soundtrack that i still enjoy, after watching over 300 episodes. You will notice that 'Bleach' has an awesome OST which will get you pumped up whenever it plays during various scenes.
|Act IV| Character [9]
Naturally, there is a main character and several others that are less 'flashy', but still count as important ones. As i said the main one is 'Kurosaki Ichigo' a boy who wants to protect the one he loves and as we advance we'll see that he tends to defend everyone. There are a lot of characters in 'Bleach' and I can say that they have pretty various personalities, thus it is quite interesting to watch them develop as individuals.
|Act V| Enjoyment [9]
Sincerely, I've had a lot of fun watching it and i still do. I recall watching it day and night because it was so intense and admirable. Believe me that there aren't people who haven't enjoyed at least an episode of 'Bleach'. There are only people who got bored of it or for whom the show didn't live up to their expectations. Try it and you'll see for yourselves.
Concluding, 'Bleach is a nice shounen that you'll want to watch, especially if you are new to the anime culture.
