@@BladeZlayer nah, others are also not greedy, ichigo is just relatable because of his reasons for why he want it. Otherwise he is just a teenager who is learning about himself throughout bleach
@@luffys_ naruto is also relatable. Pretty sure most would feel naruto is more relatable than Ichigo. I mean naruto has literally made so many people change their lives around, accomplish their dreams, and everything, he taught me that sometimes forgiveness and violence isn't the answer, that showing empathy isn't a bad thing, taught me that I should be grateful for everything I have
@@Swagjutsusolosfiction I get where you are coming from but honestly I just find Ichigo way more relatable to me. Unlike Naruto he (Ichigo) doesn't seem to care about pleasing people that treated him like shit and cares mostly about his friends and family. Naruto strives to be accepted by everyone, goes out of his way to relate to villains and will try to pull them from the darkness which is admirable but just not relatable to me personally. I could care less about being accepted by others and cherish those who accept me for who I am
Can say that to him again, It’s been more than a decade I’ve watched bleach more than once and read the manga. Been waiting for its return and trust me the next season to come, every true bleach fan knows Aizen and Ichigo tag team, horn of salvation Ichigo and so much more definitely going break the internet fr.
I don't understand how people slept on Bleach when it has so many dope character designs that you would want to know more about, how is a goofy ass child Naruto more appealing?
@@ZolPsyko Makes sense lol, back then I was already an older teenager so when I saw Naruto used to come on Toonami I used to think it looked goofy and never watched it, Bleach looked way cooler to me. I have started Naruto and One Piece recently though just to see what I missed out on.
@@troytheboy1985 I never got into Dragonball, I just remember seeing episodes come on TV way back in the day they were on the same fight for like 10 episodes. I didn't get, but I was way younger back then. My main show was Yu Yu Hakusho, thats the one that got me into anime.
People enjoy naruto because they like it. That's like saying why do people like bleach, and you would probably give me many reasons why bleach appeals to you. Same as how other people have many reasons why naruto appeals to them more.
Oh trust me Bleach has lots of nuance, poetic writing, depth and layers to it. The anime is known to be a bad adaptation that was unfaithful to Kubo’s writing, it left things out such as Orihime’s characterization, ichigos character, symbolism etc TYBW is an amazing adaption though, so the manga really showcases the core themes of Bleach, character writing etc far better, Kubo is a GOD at foreshadowing and subtleties hopefully you read the manga it showcases all of these much better, if not at least after you finish the anime, also Ichigo is also definitely NOT one dimensional he is very well written that’s all I’ll say about that for now
@@Roshiyoshiiii657 Don’t get me wrong the osts were great skin with the fights and some moments but they didn’t faithfully adapt Kubo’s writing, many things were left out that’s why people say the manga is a MUCH better experience
@@Roshiyoshiiii657 it was a lot more than just scenes taken out, lots of themes, nuance, pacing were lost in the anime. Hell one of the MAIN symbolism with the rain when Ichigo visits his mothers grave was completely removed from the anime it made that scene in the manga pointless and if you’ve read Bleach you know rain is one of the important symbolisms in it.
When I saw the title I immediately knew you would be flabbergasted by the female characters in Bleach. Cuz we all know how Kishimoto treated his female cast...
@@ZolPsyko The fact that tsunade is only halfway a decent female character speaks volumes. Even Kishimoto in a interview adimited he eventually gone slef-aware and adimited he just can't write woman.
@@wander7812 As an amateur writer (first fanfic is the only work to my name and it’s not even completed yet), I don’t understand why some people struggle with writing women. I’ve gotten complimented on my characterization by several people, including on the female characters, and I literally just write them as people with their own personality. Not much different from how I write the male ones. Wanna write women good? Write people. Simple as.
(14:00) Exactly!!! No matter how important or unimportant the character’s may seem it’s that variety that makes the Bleach universe feel like a living breathing world whose inhabitant’s are worth protecting. :)
Most Naruto fans are ok but some Naruto fans are truly hypocritical about other anime. Plus Naruto fans should be like you and know that watching anime is not a competition but an enjoyment.
It's not just naruto. It's bleach fans, Dragonball fans, one piece fans, berserk fans, jjk fans, hunter x hunter fans. It's just fans of anime in general
Fr man if it wouldn't for those toxic fans naruto wouldn't be my most hated series.for me naruto is series avarage enjoyable series with inconsistency.it isn't superb but it isn't also bad.
@@humayunkabir4814 this isn't a excuse it never was for any show. Just because the fandom is toxic doesn't mean you have to bash the show. The writing and what you enjoyed About naruto has nothing to do with the fandom, sake with mha or one piece. People just use this excuse to hate on a show just to be different(not saying you specifically but many people who hate on mha, one piece, Naruto, etc)
Among the Bleach fandom its largely recognized as a psuedo seinen. Specifically because of how Kubo writes it. Its shonen plot line with a seinen execution. To be more clear, most of the themes of Bleach are shown, not said. You'll miss most of it if you arent paying attention. For example using the most obvious unmentioned plot: Byakuya's inner conflict. You'll see the absolution in his behavior but when you look at his history you can tell he's conflicted. A second one is Ichigo's inner conflict. You'll think there's inconsistency in his character but he's still consistent, he just goes through changes. Its also a surface level plot line. Then there's the REALLY deep ones like Aizen's personality and motivation, Ichigo's Zanpakto, how the power system blends into the structure of the world, etc. Its the really hard to see ones that're the nest. Like seriously, most of the characters introduced have incredible significance to the plot of the story. Some are just there for perspective, like a benchmark a certain thing is supposed to be like or in Momo's case, there just to give hints about Aizen's personality.
>psuedo seinen lol Hunter x Hunter, D Gray Man, and Gundam are psuedo Seinen.... bleach is just really subtle and requires you to pay attention a bit more which isn't exclusive to seinen
@@dc7981 Another hidden theme of Bleach is it's existential philosophy in regards to existential dread, which is one of the very dark themes of it (I am not just talking about Ulquiorra). There's also some really dark side plot lines like how Ichigo used to visit a lonely child ghost and even fought people over her and saved her, only for a couple episodes later after he comes back from the soul society he could only find signs of a hollow coming through and her missing. There's a lot of other dark themes and events in Bleach. That's why it's considered a psuedo seinen.
3:56 i disagree with this one, ichigo had both moments where he was reactionary or he took decisions himself. Whole ss arc happend bcuz going to save rukia was the decision ichigo made.
Bro, I absolutely used to be the same like you back when I just started watching anime full time in 2011. I was a Narutard and the only other anime I watched was Dragon Ball Z. I binged Naruto until I caught up to the war at around episode 232 or so but at the time I couldn't really wait for the episodes to release so I reluctantly watched Bleach as a way to pass the time until a new Naruto episode was released and after a few episodes I wanted to watch more Bleach. After arriving at the Arrancar saga (at episode 271 specifically, which is easily one of the most craziest fight scenes in the entire series) I officially recognized Bleach as my favorite anime of all time. I watched every episode including the fillers and they were all interesting in their own way. Bleach is so slept on within the Big 3 but it's fine, as long as there are people who understand it's worth it's all fine. I will say tho bro, please don't skip the Fullbring arc which starts at around episode 342 or so. A lot of people who watch Bleach think it's filler and a lot of them think it's trash but it's a canon arc within the Bleach manga and it's extremely interesting because Tite Kubo uses the arc to completely break down Ichigo to rebuild him as "HIMOTHY" and from that point onwards Ichigo has maintained his "HIMOTHY" status to the point that the final and strongest villain of the series was terrified of his power and had to tamper with time a bit to gain an advantage against Ichigo in the manga. The final arc of Bleach is absolutely nuts so trust me, you will be entertained if you continue with the series, in fact, cour 3 of the final arc will be in October of this year so you might be able to get caught up at this rate
"not every battle needs power you need strategies, you need alliances" THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! We've been saying this for years that Ichigo isn't just a guy with big sword and big attacks, there are actual strategies and techiques in play
In bleach the soul society arc shows how the shiginamis are viewed as the bad guys in the beginning but are actually good, the betrays, alliances and backstabbing on the soul society, it shows how corrupt soul society is
Soul Society in general is neutral and will kill normal souls/humans if needed, they kill not out of anger or love but for the balance of the universe.
@@troytheboy1985 The shinigamis includes both good people, bad people, and morally gray people. Considering they’re a large group and the military of a state, that’s what would be realistically expected.
3:56 I wholeheartedly disagree. Ichigo does move the plot forward. The entire plot if bleach isn't possible without ichigo as the central point of the show. Yes, other characters have their separate motivations but ichigo is the centre of the story. It'd be like saying Spiderman is only a reactionary main character. I think he's easily my favourite right next to byakuya and zaraki. You gotta check out the new bleach game trailers. And Don't forget to skip the fillers bruh. Especially the bounty arc The arrancar arc is longer but expands on the worldbuilding too
@@rabbitmane9265 i recommend watching it after finishing the series without filler. Because when you watch it during the OG series, it just kinda destroys the flow
That manga helped lift my mother’s manga ban during my childhood lmao. She banned all manga after she picked up my Naruto volume 4 and just so happened to open it to the page where Kakashi had his arm through Haku’s chest. She was super Christian and I never told her what Naruto was about. I still watched and read Naruto in secret, it was just hard to aquire and I couldn’t buy them with my allowance anymore, so I relied on my friends. Then I started watching and reading bleach in secret… I worked the angle of bleach having a “Christian influence where a guy exorcised demons and evil to protect good innocent people.” (Obviously that was a lie and very warped). Lo and behold, that somehow worked. Anyways, I can’t wait till you get to the Arrancar Arc. Hands down my favorite arc.
Honestly, I would love a bleach reboot just to fix the pacing issues and remove all the noncanonical filler and update the animation and art style make it a little more current
@@yalovoyhznepomnyout of the big 3 the BLEACH anime adaptation is the worst for a couple of reasons. 1. A lot of minor foreshadowing moments just straight up taking out or changed in the anime/skipped content. 2. Characters act differently than the manga making a sympathetic character feel annoying or whiny. 3. Obviously pacing but instead of funny characters like Zoro getting lost in One Piece or long quiet scenes/flash back on events that just happened in Naruto. BLEACH's bad anime pacing is being told the same info multiple times, no jokes and no different perspectives on the story. The only real good thing about the anime is the music, plus the BLEACH author Kubo hates the original anime adaptation, that's why his working heavily on TYBW anime adaptation.
It brings me great joy so many people are hopping on the bleach train now. Bleach was one of my favorite animes and it sucked when it was canceled. When they brought it back, it was so hype. Didn’t have to go that hard 🤩
Ngl bro, idk if you have a cheaper mic or anything, or if its a filter bc you have the VHS aesthetic. Either way, its a genius workaround or a nice choice for your channel overall anyway. Subbed (and thats not even considering me being a Bleach fan lol)
I started bleach a year ago, now I am one of the biggest fan of the show, I'm trying my best to learn Japanese, so I can understand Bleach on a deeper level, and maybe translate some lost material for other fans.
The anime did drag things out especially in arrancar arc but tybw pacing is perfect, youll be thoroughly hooked once you get there 🔥 Besides tybw s3 is coming next month imagine you catch up before
Bleach was and still is my favorite of the Big 3 both when I was a kid in middle school and rn in my mid 20s. One thing to note tho is that aside from certain fights that were animated and choreographed really well, the soundtrack, and some actually cool filler…the manga for Bleach up until the TYBW smokes the Bleach anime. If you like reading manga, I recommend the Bleach manga up until the TYBW and then watching some of the fights animated. Some of the filler arcs like the Zanpakuto Rebellion and Reigai Arc I actually enjoyed. I ain’t like the bount arc but it has one or 2 cool fights. Also, I peep the SA2 Soundtrack, respect for that
same thoughts exactly bruv. been sleeping on it and in bleach everyone is unique and have something for every character we see. naruto had a smaller cast yet messed up in building the history of their characters or understanding more about them and their clan and most fights in the series like lets say sasuke with the rinnegan is a "kishimoto forgot type thing" when it comes to boruto and him not using six paths justu. even trying to time keep every event is a tough task
Naruto has far more characters than bleach. And I mean far More. And for your information kishimoto didn't have much control over his own manga. His editor would tell him to do this to do that. Then once the Sasuke vs itachi fight ended his editor left, and kishimoto worked alone and created the pain arc. Shueisha rushed kishimoto to end the war arc, kishimoto wanted to end naruto many times but was told not to, kishimoto had hella burn out, sick, and mental. Plus most of the side cast was supposed to die during part 1 but his editor told him not too. Kishimoto wrote a 700 chapter with all of this going on, it shouldn't be surprising he was ready to end the manga.
@@SwagjutsusolosfictionBro the only reason Naruto is a hit is because of the editors helping Kishimoto out, plus in an interview he even said he was scared his first published manga story was gonna fail so he was always WILLING to get help with the story, worldbuilding, power systems and character arcs from his editors. Editors don't control the author's story they just help clean up parts of the story until the authors say "no!" All authors have the final decision on how their story goes. If you don't believe me go read Kishimoto's other hit manga he made after Naruto and no I don't mean Boruto.
@@tacoo7697 I Know. Kishimoto let his editor make the decision but ONLY because the editor was a few years older than him in the industry. Plus all yahagi was ruin the world building, made the pacing faster, made kishimoto give side characters plot amor which led to them getting hated, which led to it being a problem by naruto fans, and he stopped kishimoto from making them animal's but that's literally it. He had more of a negative impact than a good one, because kishimoto even said he had rush to put everything he wanted into the war arc.
@@Swagjutsusolosfiction Fair enough I'm just coming from a fan of og Naruto who's disappointed in Shippuden's dropped characters and other story beats besides Naruto v Sasuke. Also the editors helped out heavily with the power system from Kishimoto's original idea of random powers per character to an actual system.
Im glad I heard about Bleach before the anime adaptation was aired. It was discussed online back in the days of Facebook surprisingly. But once I started it I could not stop until I had to wait for the revival of it. And it's still so good 👍🏼
Man, this is the exact same way I came to Bleach. Total Narutard, now huge Bleach fan Naruto will always have a special place in my heart, but Bleach is just straight gas
Im a naruto fan myself since 2008 but man this show is gold itself, their fillers are top tier and worth the watch. Just finished watching the whole series four days ago
Just saying 20% if bleach criticism comes from people watching the anime (bad adaptation) another 40% is from agendas 30% is due to not watching the show) the last 10% is valid(normally due to a rushed ending or other things)
even tho bleach anime can be a bad adaptation, its still good as anime. i personally love it, im not used to reading manga but i should try bleach manga sometime
I couldn’t ever finish bleach until recently. So many fillers between the actual canon material, you just gotta skip over all of them and watch it consecutively, then go back and watch at least the zanpakuto arc because that’s really good. I also enjoy the beach filler for certain reasons involving orihime and rangiku
Whoooo buddy, you just got done w/ soul society arc? You're in for a wild ride, and I'm glad to have you be a part of the fandom now! Or at least to have honestly given it a try lol. Also if you have an issue with the pacing I'd highly reccomend that you read the manga, or look up a filler guide. It's a 2000's anime, it has a bunch of superfluous material because they were waiting on the manga to catch up, whatcha gonna do 😅🤷♂️ Some fun facts: 1. The name of the series comes from the dichotomy between black and white, the shinigami and the hollows. The shinigami's robes are all black, and they are the focal point of the series, so "Bleach" or "white" would be the complimentary color for that. Lots of thing's in Bleach have symbolism to them, but it would take forever to point them out plus there's so much to the story you haven't experienced yet lol. 2. Kubo originally wanted to be a fashion designer. That's why his character design is on point. Keep an eye on Captain Mayuri, as that's Kubo's favorite character, and his appearance will change every arc lol. 3. Yes, that shit was fucking nuts back in the day when Aizen's betrayal happened. It was like the Sixth Sense's twist, and there's a *REASON* why it's such a meme to this day. Wish you could've experienced it firsthand.
Ichigo motivation is always going to be to protect the people he cares about plan and simple and in order to he’s going to need power as the the threats get bigger
i see bro hasnt gotten to one of the most badass arc in bleach, the espada's are literally monster! and their designs are really fcking badass! cant wait for your next video about that bro!
I definitely recommend reading as well as watching, if you're enjoying the series. There are scenes the anime didn't adapt, as well as a lot of censorship (if you care about that).
The reason bleach isn’t as big as naruto and one piece is cause bleach isn’t for kids. It never was if you watched bleach as a kid you were either very lucky or probably had cool parents most of the people who watched bleach back in the early 2000’s were teenagers in college or adults. there’s a reason it was never on children tv channels like Cartoon Network, Disney channel or 4kids.
Bleach is the best of the 3. Hands down. Naruto and Shippuuden were epic and great. Boruto was great when it started, but its just getting absurd now. One Piece is an expansive story and going strong, just not my thing.
Bleach fan for life here, though I acknowledge its flaws and its not even in my top 5. That said, I want to urge you, as someone who is probably still getting through the series and already found pacing to be a problem in the Soul Society arc, to: 1) Bear in mind/learn which parts are canon and which aren't. The filler arcs can drag harder than Ru Paul. Just take them as fun additional content. And 2) Absolutely watch the Thousand Year Blood War arc. I'd argue it's peak Bleach and shows just how cleverly written the early parts are. Even episodes 1-15 will hit different once you see the amount foreshadowing that was in it for anime episodes that wouldn't follow for nearly two decades. Plus it looks absolutely stunning with the more contemporary animation style.
Id suggest skipping fillers to keep the momentum of the main story, but it also recomend to go back and watch all the fillers!!! They are pretty good :))
Some of the filler is good but it kind of tanks the pacing which is an issue for the original anime adaptation as a whole due to episodes being produced faster than the manga
idk if you read manga but for this id highly recommend reading it . The anime adaption is not very good and they miss a lot not to mention the filler. Watching the thousand year blood war would be best for an anime adaptation since kubo is heavily involved in it.
1:52 I don’t blame you to me Bleach is targeted towards late teens and young adults trying to find themselves that’s Ichigo’s main character arc of self acceptance and overcoming grief(death of his mother), guilt(blamed himself for his mothers death), depression, n fear. Very relatable themes for an older demographic and that what makes Ichigo such an interesting MC to me.
You posted this 6 days ago, ...so i might as well tell you, 1) Drop your expectations cuz Bleach gets different from other Shonen 2) Focus on each dialog n think cuz there is Tons of foreshadowing. 3) You can skip The Vampire filler arc and royal princess arc, but try to sit through rest of Filler Arcs..they r important. 4) Try Manga uptill before TYBW arc and then switch to bleach-TYBW anime
I like both Naruto and One Piece, both shows are amazing, but Bleach was always my favorite of the three. It just had something that the other two lacked. It was a bit more mature, in a sense, and had a ton of badass characters.
Be careful when skipping through some of the fillers because some of it is Canon content hidden in there. Not the bount arc though. The arrancar arc is my favorite
@@ZolPsyko dark and Edgy? Did you actually watch Naruto? And too long? Naruto has 700 chapters with 720 eps. Bleach has 600 chapters with only nearly 400 eps(including tybw)
I still remember seeing the first episode, with rukia narrating the intro into the world.. shivers. Such a good show, and glad you've taken the time to watch it.
I hope this advice can make you appreciate bleach more (no worries this is not really a spoiler, it's more like the main plot/synopsis). Bleach's theme and MC is unlike Naruto and One Piece's. Luffy and Naruto are characters that strived to be the best and see the end goal of their dream, be it the Hokage or the Pirate King. And no shame to them btw, those are good theming. However Bleach is different because as you can already tell it's more on the mature side which is why you can appreciate it more as you grow up than as a kid. Anyways, all I want to say is unlike the previous two, Bleach and Ichigo isn't about being the best at something or being the strongest shinigami there is... Bleach is about the main character's self discovery and self acceptance. It's a story about a guy who was blessed with everything but has a hard time accepting 'those everything' as part of himself. Ichigo never wanted to be the strongest, he just wanted to be strong enough to protect those around him.
as a bleach glazer, pacing is my biggest issue in bleach too, esp in the arrancar saga omg I really hate how some battle takes lots of episodes when they're not even important or interesting.. however in TYBW literally there's no mid episode so far, there's only 8/10 and above. and mostly 10s.
I honestly never understood this "relatable" thing people have they obsess over. I was 7, I used to watch Robotech, and I looked up to characters like Rick Hunter in it who are all grown adults.
@@ElKabong3345 just overused but ichigo seems relatable because he is a teenager who just wants his normal day to day life with his friends, there is also this moment where ichigo was asked what he would do after school he answered idk and that is very much relatable to me atleast. Otherwise there is also him trying to get over his trauma which can also be relatable to some.
Bount arc is GOOD but it has a lot of build up, so it's not everyones cup of tea. Other fuller arcs are better, there are 4 filler arcs the last 2 are fast paced, the filler after this is same pace has SS i think? Anyway the manga had WAY more content and the director has a hate boner for orihime ao he cut her scenes and altered remaining ones. So, you should re-read the entire manga unti the end of SS. The first arc is vastly different in the manga too, SS has important differences.
You’re gonna need to update us as you progress. The show is epic and it would be nice to hear you experience. I grew up on Naruto too but I have to admit bleach is better, it’s like Naruto if Naruto was based on the Akatsuki, well at least the vibe wise. Are you watching everything or using the filler guide ?
I NEVER LIKED NARUTO. I though it was the worst of the big 3. Bleach is definitely the best of the big 3. Plus the Naruto community ruined it for me. You haven't even gotten into to best parts. But dont watch the bount the arc
Part II really dragged it down imo. Then the ending. But there's just so many scrubs nowadays who overlook the faults of the other two and drag Bleach down. It's honestly tiresome.
Bleach is the best. God tier. Trust me bro, their are so much you missed from just the eps you saw. Kubo is a master at foreshadowing, never been done the way he made it. You fully understand when u have seen the series a handful of times. And you will rewatch it. Edit: Pls watch the filers. first filer arc is okej to skip but i didn't. But all the other filler arcs, just pls watch it. Trust me some of them has better fighting than main story. A arc is called The Zanpakuto Rebellion Arc, trust me, you don't want to miss out. it's a way to get more info about the world of Bleach and that's why i love the fillers. It's just more Bleach and some are canon too. Same thing with the movies just watch them. 2 of the movies are also canon, watch it all, be a real fan. fr.
Now here a real fact bro. ☝ Soul society is not the best arc in entirety of bleach. ☝ From arrancar arc and fullbring arc then the final arc of bleach which is the tybw - bleach will be go on different level of what peak is all about.☝ Kubo write bleach in different manner than its counterpart. Kubo want people to read or watch bleach like puzzle so reading it for 5x over is not enough even for an adult to catch what is the story of bleach realy is all about.☝ P.S. im following bleach manga for 20 years, rereading it multiple times over and i can still discover new things in kubo's insane writing.👌👌👌
"P.S. im following bleach manga for 20 years, rereading it multiple times over and i can still discover new things in kubo's insane writing" i wonder what is that?
10:30 I disagree with the pacing thing.I thought the pacin was great and the lore was great.They weren't "throwing words" for me.They gave us the most important bleach lore overall
skip all filler except rhe zanpaktou rebellion arc its the only good one, trust me its so hype with literally movie quality animation i have no idea why they snapped so hard on it
"its not super deep" my guy it is literally the deepest of the big three by a significant margin. once you get to it, look at the philosophical war that is being waged with aizen vs kisuke. it is the underlying theme of the entire show. Nietzche vs Socrates. Not to mention all the religious symbolism, Ichigos self-acceptance arc, aizens hypocrisy. There is so much elite writing, dont skip over it!
1:52 ichigo is easily the most relatable one for teenagers in the big 3
After giving it a watch, I 100% agree
i mean obv, he's not greedy for power like the others. He's really just a cool dude with a big heart.
@@BladeZlayer nah, others are also not greedy, ichigo is just relatable because of his reasons for why he want it. Otherwise he is just a teenager who is learning about himself throughout bleach
@@luffys_ naruto is also relatable. Pretty sure most would feel naruto is more relatable than Ichigo.
I mean naruto has literally made so many people change their lives around, accomplish their dreams, and everything, he taught me that sometimes forgiveness and violence isn't the answer, that showing empathy isn't a bad thing, taught me that I should be grateful for everything I have
@@Swagjutsusolosfiction I get where you are coming from but honestly I just find Ichigo way more relatable to me. Unlike Naruto he (Ichigo) doesn't seem to care about pleasing people that treated him like shit and cares mostly about his friends and family. Naruto strives to be accepted by everyone, goes out of his way to relate to villains and will try to pull them from the darkness which is admirable but just not relatable to me personally. I could care less about being accepted by others and cherish those who accept me for who I am
Jeez soul society.....your not even done with appetizer
Can say that to him again,
It’s been more than a decade I’ve watched bleach more than once and read the manga.

(14:00) Exactly!!! No matter how important or unimportant the character’s may seem it’s that variety that makes the Bleach universe feel like a living breathing world whose inhabitant’s are worth protecting. :)
Most Naruto fans are ok but some Naruto fans are truly hypocritical about other anime. Plus Naruto fans should be like you and know that watching anime is not a competition but an enjoyment.
100%
I love Naruto, but the anime space is too big for me to not experience other great shows
It's not just naruto. It's bleach fans, Dragonball fans, one piece fans, berserk fans, jjk fans, hunter x hunter fans.
It's just fans of anime in general
Fr man if it wouldn't for those toxic fans naruto wouldn't be my most hated series.for me naruto is series avarage enjoyable series with inconsistency.it isn't superb but it isn't also bad.
@@humayunkabir4814 this isn't a excuse it never was for any show. Just because the fandom is toxic doesn't mean you have to bash the show. The writing and what you enjoyed About naruto has nothing to do with the fandom, sake with mha or one piece.
People just use this excuse to hate on a show just to be different(not saying you specifically but many people who hate on mha, one piece, Naruto, etc)
@@humayunkabir4814explain the problems then with Naruto
Among the Bleach fandom its largely recognized as a psuedo seinen. Specifically because of how Kubo writes it. Its shonen plot line with a seinen execution.
To be more clear, most of the themes of Bleach are shown, not said. You'll miss most of it if you arent paying attention.
For example using the most obvious unmentioned plot: Byakuya's inner conflict. You'll see the absolution in his behavior but when you look at his history you can tell he's conflicted.
A second one is Ichigo's inner conflict. You'll think there's inconsistency in his character but he's still consistent, he just goes through changes. Its also a surface level plot line.
Then there's the REALLY deep ones like Aizen's personality and motivation, Ichigo's Zanpakto, how the power system blends into the structure of the world, etc. Its the really hard to see ones that're the nest.
Like seriously, most of the characters introduced have incredible significance to the plot of the story. Some are just there for perspective, like a benchmark a certain thing is supposed to be like or in Momo's case, there just to give hints about Aizen's personality.
>psuedo seinen
lol Hunter x Hunter, D Gray Man, and Gundam are psuedo Seinen.... bleach is just really subtle and requires you to pay attention a bit more which isn't exclusive to seinen
@@dc7981 Another hidden theme of Bleach is it's existential philosophy in regards to existential dread, which is one of the very dark themes of it (I am not just talking about Ulquiorra). There's also some really dark side plot lines like how Ichigo used to visit a lonely child ghost and even fought people over her and saved her, only for a couple episodes later after he comes back from the soul society he could only find signs of a hollow coming through and her missing. There's a lot of other dark themes and events in Bleach. That's why it's considered a psuedo seinen.
3:56 i disagree with this one, ichigo had both moments where he was reactionary or he took decisions himself. Whole ss arc happend bcuz going to save rukia was the decision ichigo made.
Tru I can see that point
Bro, I absolutely used to be the same like you back when I just started watching anime full time in 2011. I was a Narutard and the only other anime I watched was Dragon Ball Z. I binged Naruto until I caught up to the war at around episode 232 or so but at the time I couldn't really wait for the episodes to release so I reluctantly watched Bleach as a way to pass the time until a new Naruto episode was released and after a few episodes I wanted to watch more Bleach. After arriving at the Arrancar saga (at episode 271 specifically, which is easily one of the most craziest fight scenes in the entire series) I officially recognized Bleach as my favorite anime of all time. I watched every episode including the fillers and they were all interesting in their own way. Bleach is so slept on within the Big 3 but it's fine, as long as there are people who understand it's worth it's all fine. I will say tho bro, please don't skip the Fullbring arc which starts at around episode 342 or so. A lot of people who watch Bleach think it's filler and a lot of them think it's trash but it's a canon arc within the Bleach manga and it's extremely interesting because Tite Kubo uses the arc to completely break down Ichigo to rebuild him as "HIMOTHY" and from that point onwards Ichigo has maintained his "HIMOTHY" status to the point that the final and strongest villain of the series was terrified of his power and had to tamper with time a bit to gain an advantage against Ichigo in the manga. The final arc of Bleach is absolutely nuts so trust me, you will be entertained if you continue with the series, in fact, cour 3 of the final arc will be in October of this year so you might be able to get caught up at this rate
Soul Society is great, but i think the upcoming arcs, especially in the manga, are amazing!
"not every battle needs power you need strategies, you need alliances" THANK YOU!!!!!!!!! We've been saying this for years that Ichigo isn't just a guy with big sword and big attacks, there are actual strategies and techiques in play
In bleach the soul society arc shows how the shiginamis are viewed as the bad guys in the beginning but are actually good, the betrays, alliances and backstabbing on the soul society, it shows how corrupt soul society is
There never shown as the good guys in any arc
@@troytheboy1985 yup they were always grey and some of their actions in past are straight up evil
Soul Society in general is neutral and will kill normal souls/humans if needed, they kill not out of anger or love but for the balance of the universe.
They are actually the bad guys that prevailed, what ever they are doing now is they think what is necessary.
@@troytheboy1985 The shinigamis includes both good people, bad people, and morally gray people.
Considering they’re a large group and the military of a state, that’s what would be realistically expected.
3:56 I wholeheartedly disagree. Ichigo does move the plot forward. The entire plot if bleach isn't possible without ichigo as the central point of the show. Yes, other characters have their separate motivations but ichigo is the centre of the story.
It'd be like saying Spiderman is only a reactionary main character.
I think he's easily my favourite right next to byakuya and zaraki.
You gotta check out the new bleach game trailers.
And Don't forget to skip the fillers bruh. Especially the bounty arc
The arrancar arc is longer but expands on the worldbuilding too
DONT skip zanpaktu rebellion arc. Its technically filler but its regarded by fans as a damn good arc
Bount arc is great if you are into seeing more bleach and more of human world :))
It's cannonozed by Kubo for Cfyow @@rabbitmane9265
@myfredo898 No. It's bad answer the anims director who made it tried to force Kubo to change the story to fit the anime directors direction.
@@rabbitmane9265 i recommend watching it after finishing the series without filler. Because when you watch it during the OG series, it just kinda destroys the flow
That manga helped lift my mother’s manga ban during my childhood lmao. She banned all manga after she picked up my Naruto volume 4 and just so happened to open it to the page where Kakashi had his arm through Haku’s chest. She was super Christian and I never told her what Naruto was about. I still watched and read Naruto in secret, it was just hard to aquire and I couldn’t buy them with my allowance anymore, so I relied on my friends.
Then I started watching and reading bleach in secret… I worked the angle of bleach having a “Christian influence where a guy exorcised demons and evil to protect good innocent people.” (Obviously that was a lie and very warped). Lo and behold, that somehow worked.
Anyways, I can’t wait till you get to the Arrancar Arc. Hands down my favorite arc.
Honestly, I would love a bleach reboot just to fix the pacing issues and remove all the noncanonical filler and update the animation and art style make it a little more current
Why?
@@yalovoyhznepomnyout of the big 3 the BLEACH anime adaptation is the worst for a couple of reasons.
1. A lot of minor foreshadowing moments just straight up taking out or changed in the anime/skipped content.
2. Characters act differently than the manga making a sympathetic character feel annoying or whiny.
3. Obviously pacing but instead of funny characters like Zoro getting lost in One Piece or long quiet scenes/flash back on events that just happened in Naruto. BLEACH's bad anime pacing is being told the same info multiple times, no jokes and no different perspectives on the story.
The only real good thing about the anime is the music, plus the BLEACH author Kubo hates the original anime adaptation, that's why his working heavily on TYBW anime adaptation.
@@tacoo7697 interesting situation
Kubo said he's interested in a reboot. With what we've seen in tybw, man the past fights would be clean af with new animations
Its happening, trailer released after cour 3 of tybw came out
It brings me great joy so many people are hopping on the bleach train now. Bleach was one of my favorite animes and it sucked when it was canceled. When they brought it back, it was so hype. Didn’t have to go that hard 🤩
Been a bleach fan and will always be a bleach fan
Ngl bro, idk if you have a cheaper mic or anything, or if its a filter bc you have the VHS aesthetic. Either way, its a genius workaround or a nice choice for your channel overall anyway. Subbed (and thats not even considering me being a Bleach fan lol)
Im glad you like Bleach so far, hope you continue to watch all the way through until TYBW AND get up to date, you're in for a helluva ride
I started bleach a year ago, now I am one of the biggest fan of the show, I'm trying my best to learn Japanese, so I can understand Bleach on a deeper level, and maybe translate some lost material for other fans.
The anime did drag things out especially in arrancar arc but tybw pacing is perfect, youll be thoroughly hooked once you get there 🔥
Besides tybw s3 is coming next month imagine you catch up before
TYWB is just a tad too fast paced but very entertaining
Bleach was and still is my favorite of the Big 3 both when I was a kid in middle school and rn in my mid 20s. One thing to note tho is that aside from certain fights that were animated and choreographed really well, the soundtrack, and some actually cool filler…the manga for Bleach up until the TYBW smokes the Bleach anime. If you like reading manga, I recommend the Bleach manga up until the TYBW and then watching some of the fights animated. Some of the filler arcs like the Zanpakuto Rebellion and Reigai Arc I actually enjoyed. I ain’t like the bount arc but it has one or 2 cool fights.
Also, I peep the SA2 Soundtrack, respect for that
You know what else people are sleeping on? Your channel bro its underrated asl
The tybw arc is cookinh
Good luck joining bleach fan...
i actually liked the full bring arc as far as story telling goes its awesome, it wasnt as popular with many people but i thought it was really good
I like it too
When we tell people Bleach is that show they think we just defending a trash bag...
same thoughts exactly bruv. been sleeping on it and in bleach everyone is unique and have something for every character we see. naruto had a smaller cast yet messed up in building the history of their characters or understanding more about them and their clan and most fights in the series like lets say sasuke with the rinnegan is a "kishimoto forgot type thing" when it comes to boruto and him not using six paths justu. even trying to time keep every event is a tough task
Yea in Bleach I'm definitely liking the side characters a lot more than in Naruto so far
Naruto has far more characters than bleach. And I mean far More. And for your information
kishimoto didn't have much control over his own manga. His editor would tell him to do this to do that. Then once the Sasuke vs itachi fight ended his editor left, and kishimoto worked alone and created the pain arc.
Shueisha rushed kishimoto to end the war arc, kishimoto wanted to end naruto many times but was told not to, kishimoto had hella burn out, sick, and mental. Plus most of the side cast was supposed to die during part 1 but his editor told him not too. Kishimoto wrote a 700 chapter with all of this going on, it shouldn't be surprising he was ready to end the manga.
@@SwagjutsusolosfictionBro the only reason Naruto is a hit is because of the editors helping Kishimoto out, plus in an interview he even said he was scared his first published manga story was gonna fail so he was always WILLING to get help with the story, worldbuilding, power systems and character arcs from his editors.
Editors don't control the author's story they just help clean up parts of the story until the authors say "no!" All authors have the final decision on how their story goes.
If you don't believe me go read Kishimoto's other hit manga he made after Naruto and no I don't mean Boruto.
@@tacoo7697 I Know. Kishimoto let his editor make the decision but ONLY because the editor was a few years older than him in the industry. Plus all yahagi was ruin the world building, made the pacing faster, made kishimoto give side characters plot amor which led to them getting hated, which led to it being a problem by naruto fans, and he stopped kishimoto from making them animal's but that's literally it.
He had more of a negative impact than a good one, because kishimoto even said he had rush to put everything he wanted into the war arc.
@@Swagjutsusolosfiction Fair enough I'm just coming from a fan of og Naruto who's disappointed in Shippuden's dropped characters and other story beats besides Naruto v Sasuke. Also the editors helped out heavily with the power system from Kishimoto's original idea of random powers per character to an actual system.
Im glad I heard about Bleach before the anime adaptation was aired. It was discussed online back in the days of Facebook surprisingly. But once I started it I could not stop until I had to wait for the revival of it. And it's still so good 👍🏼
Man, this is the exact same way I came to Bleach. Total Narutard, now huge Bleach fan
Naruto will always have a special place in my heart, but Bleach is just straight gas
Im a naruto fan myself since 2008 but man this show is gold itself, their fillers are top tier and worth the watch. Just finished watching the whole series four days ago
Just saying 20% if bleach criticism comes from people watching the anime (bad adaptation) another 40% is from agendas 30% is due to not watching the show) the last 10% is valid(normally due to a rushed ending or other things)
Yea I'm starting to see that now. I never gave it a fair shot.
Re reading bleach cuz its that good
even tho bleach anime can be a bad adaptation, its still good as anime. i personally love it, im not used to reading manga but i should try bleach manga sometime
I couldn’t ever finish bleach until recently. So many fillers between the actual canon material, you just gotta skip over all of them and watch it consecutively, then go back and watch at least the zanpakuto arc because that’s really good. I also enjoy the beach filler for certain reasons involving orihime and rangiku
You'll be in for a ride esp how good TYBW arc is being animated now, it's def a redemption from the rushed manga.
the soul society arc is my second favorite so far, my favorite being the one you're about to experience called the "Arrancar" or "Hueco Mundo" arc
Whoooo buddy, you just got done w/ soul society arc? You're in for a wild ride, and I'm glad to have you be a part of the fandom now! Or at least to have honestly given it a try lol. Also if you have an issue with the pacing I'd highly reccomend that you read the manga, or look up a filler guide. It's a 2000's anime, it has a bunch of superfluous material because they were waiting on the manga to catch up, whatcha gonna do 😅🤷♂️
Some fun facts:
1. The name of the series comes from the dichotomy between black and white, the shinigami and the hollows. The shinigami's robes are all black, and they are the focal point of the series, so "Bleach" or "white" would be the complimentary color for that. Lots of thing's in Bleach have symbolism to them, but it would take forever to point them out plus there's so much to the story you haven't experienced yet lol.
2. Kubo originally wanted to be a fashion designer. That's why his character design is on point. Keep an eye on Captain Mayuri, as that's Kubo's favorite character, and his appearance will change every arc lol.
3. Yes, that shit was fucking nuts back in the day when Aizen's betrayal happened. It was like the Sixth Sense's twist, and there's a *REASON* why it's such a meme to this day. Wish you could've experienced it firsthand.
Ichigo motivation is always going to be to protect the people he cares about plan and simple and in order to he’s going to need power as the the threats get bigger
Lol I had the same thought like you did about the name is stupid until I accidentally found myself watching ichigo vs kenpachi i got hooked instantly
Only gets better imo. Keep going
i see bro hasnt gotten to one of the most badass arc in bleach, the espada's are literally monster! and their designs are really fcking badass! cant wait for your next video about that bro!
Glad to see your recovering from your illness.
I definitely recommend reading as well as watching, if you're enjoying the series. There are scenes the anime didn't adapt, as well as a lot of censorship (if you care about that).
Bleach by far the best of the big 3 . Design , plot , characters ,ending power system
Ichigo is my favourite protagonist in big 3
And op and BLEACH are my favorite in big 3
Even though Naruto was the first big 3 I've watched and read
you should keep watching. it gets better. promise
bleach's art style changes over the years has to be the best out of the big 3 and the fashion goes crazy
Tite Kubo is one of the best artists Jump has ever had
The reason bleach isn’t as big as naruto and one piece is cause bleach isn’t for kids. It never was if you watched bleach as a kid you were either very lucky or probably had cool parents most of the people who watched bleach back in the early 2000’s were teenagers in college or adults. there’s a reason it was never on children tv channels like Cartoon Network, Disney channel or 4kids.
my fav character is a character you’ll see in the final arch, The Father of all Quincy, Yhwach
Bleach is the best of the 3. Hands down.
Naruto and Shippuuden were epic and great. Boruto was great when it started, but its just getting absurd now. One Piece is an expansive story and going strong, just not my thing.
Bleach fan for life here, though I acknowledge its flaws and its not even in my top 5.
That said, I want to urge you, as someone who is probably still getting through the series and already found pacing to be a problem in the Soul Society arc, to:
1) Bear in mind/learn which parts are canon and which aren't. The filler arcs can drag harder than Ru Paul. Just take them as fun additional content. And
2) Absolutely watch the Thousand Year Blood War arc. I'd argue it's peak Bleach and shows just how cleverly written the early parts are. Even episodes 1-15 will hit different once you see the amount foreshadowing that was in it for anime episodes that wouldn't follow for nearly two decades. Plus it looks absolutely stunning with the more contemporary animation style.
Thing about Bleach is... There's so many great characters you could be like "nah my MC is Kenpachi/Aizen/Urahara/Byakuya" ... and you ain't be wrong.
Id suggest skipping fillers to keep the momentum of the main story, but it also recomend to go back and watch all the fillers!!! They are pretty good :))
Some of the filler is good but it kind of tanks the pacing which is an issue for the original anime adaptation as a whole due to episodes being produced faster than the manga
When he said the fillers were good I was about to say "Oh no they're tricking him to watch the Bount Arc"😭😭😭😭
idk if you read manga but for this id highly recommend reading it . The anime adaption is not very good and they miss a lot not to mention the filler. Watching the thousand year blood war would be best for an anime adaptation since kubo is heavily involved in it.
1:52 I don’t blame you to me Bleach is targeted towards late teens and young adults trying to find themselves that’s Ichigo’s main character arc of self acceptance and overcoming grief(death of his mother), guilt(blamed himself for his mothers death), depression, n fear. Very relatable themes for an older demographic and that what makes Ichigo such an interesting MC to me.
You posted this 6 days ago, ...so i might as well tell you,
1) Drop your expectations cuz Bleach gets different from other Shonen
2) Focus on each dialog n think cuz there is Tons of foreshadowing.
3) You can skip The Vampire filler arc and royal princess arc, but try to sit through rest of Filler Arcs..they r important.
4) Try Manga uptill before TYBW arc and then switch to bleach-TYBW anime
Yea I just started reading the manga. It's been cool so far.
I like both Naruto and One Piece, both shows are amazing, but Bleach was always my favorite of the three. It just had something that the other two lacked. It was a bit more mature, in a sense, and had a ton of badass characters.
Nice, and may many more like you come your way rather it's whatever other shonen they've watched or seen before Bleach etc.
Be careful when skipping through some of the fillers because some of it is Canon content hidden in there. Not the bount arc though. The arrancar arc is my favorite
I'm on that arc rn. It's sick!
The majority of the Bleach cast is Born to be goofy, forced to lock in
Tybw arc gets animated and a game gets announced and suddenly bleach "fans" started spawning like they weren't trashing it for years
Just be happy Bleach getting the love it deserves
@ZolPsyko it hit top 10 on yt trending so bleach is winning over naruto and one piece
you thought bleach was stupid!? 😥Man the first few episodes were my favorite. SS Arc goes too hard. I used to read this shit weekly alongside Naruto
Never gave it a chance 😭. It just looked too edgy and dark for me back then. Then later my excuse was that it was too long.
@@ZolPsyko dark and Edgy? Did you actually watch Naruto? And too long? Naruto has 700 chapters with 720 eps. Bleach has 600 chapters with only nearly 400 eps(including tybw)
Wait till he starts hearing some banger Spanish guitar and he sees the Emo Bat
I still remember seeing the first episode, with rukia narrating the intro into the world.. shivers. Such a good show, and glad you've taken the time to watch it.
I hope this advice can make you appreciate bleach more (no worries this is not really a spoiler, it's more like the main plot/synopsis).
Bleach's theme and MC is unlike Naruto and One Piece's. Luffy and Naruto are characters that strived to be the best and see the end goal of their dream, be it the Hokage or the Pirate King. And no shame to them btw, those are good theming. However Bleach is different because as you can already tell it's more on the mature side which is why you can appreciate it more as you grow up than as a kid.
Anyways, all I want to say is unlike the previous two, Bleach and Ichigo isn't about being the best at something or being the strongest shinigami there is... Bleach is about the main character's self discovery and self acceptance. It's a story about a guy who was blessed with everything but has a hard time accepting 'those everything' as part of himself. Ichigo never wanted to be the strongest, he just wanted to be strong enough to protect those around him.
btw, the filler arcs of bleach are def not canon to the manga but are still good, people just hate it because it has the tag 'filler' on them.
as a bleach glazer, pacing is my biggest issue in bleach too, esp in the arrancar saga omg I really hate how some battle takes lots of episodes when they're not even important or interesting.. however in TYBW literally there's no mid episode so far, there's only 8/10 and above. and mostly 10s.
I honestly never understood this "relatable" thing people have they obsess over.
I was 7, I used to watch Robotech, and I looked up to characters like Rick Hunter in it who are all grown adults.
@@ElKabong3345 just overused but ichigo seems relatable because he is a teenager who just wants his normal day to day life with his friends, there is also this moment where ichigo was asked what he would do after school he answered idk and that is very much relatable to me atleast. Otherwise there is also him trying to get over his trauma which can also be relatable to some.
Yea when I was around that age the only adult characters I looked up to was Goku and Piccolo 😂
I think if you a DBZ fan, you could easily transition to Bleach.
Bleach and Naruto ran North America back in the day....O don't see how anyone could skip it over here but better late than never.
Nice vedio and your thoughts just nice bro you gonna love this series
Thanks for watching!
better late than never & enjoy the show bro 😎👍🏻
soul society is one of the best arc and my favorite character is byakuya kuchiki
Bount arc is GOOD but it has a lot of build up, so it's not everyones cup of tea. Other fuller arcs are better, there are 4 filler arcs the last 2 are fast paced, the filler after this is same pace has SS i think?
Anyway the manga had WAY more content and the director has a hate boner for orihime ao he cut her scenes and altered remaining ones. So, you should re-read the entire manga unti the end of SS. The first arc is vastly different in the manga too, SS has important differences.
You’re gonna need to update us as you progress. The show is epic and it would be nice to hear you experience. I grew up on Naruto too but I have to admit bleach is better, it’s like Naruto if Naruto was based on the Akatsuki, well at least the vibe wise. Are you watching everything or using the filler guide ?
I'm also a narutard that loves bleach
I NEVER LIKED NARUTO. I though it was the worst of the big 3. Bleach is definitely the best of the big 3. Plus the Naruto community ruined it for me. You haven't even gotten into to best parts. But dont watch the bount the arc
Part II really dragged it down imo. Then the ending. But there's just so many scrubs nowadays who overlook the faults of the other two and drag Bleach down. It's honestly tiresome.
4:26 same for reasons 😏
Tbh the only filler arc that you need to watch is Zanpakto Rebellion
Bet
Kubo...the drip lord 😏
Funny thats what i felt when watching naruto, and which is why i stick to bleach till now
You should read the manga, it's a lot better than the original anime
I recommend you read the manga instead cause the anime skipped a lot of stuff. Kubo's work is so good you will be surprised
Yea that's exactly what I'm doing
I loved the arrancar arc tbh
Bleach is the best. God tier.
Trust me bro, their are so much you missed from just the eps you saw. Kubo is a master at foreshadowing, never been done the way he made it. You fully understand when u have seen the series a handful of times. And you will rewatch it.
Edit: Pls watch the filers. first filer arc is okej to skip but i didn't. But all the other filler arcs, just pls watch it. Trust me some of them has better fighting than main story. A arc is called The Zanpakuto Rebellion Arc, trust me, you don't want to miss out.
it's a way to get more info about the world of Bleach and that's why i love the fillers. It's just more Bleach and some are canon too. Same thing with the movies just watch them. 2 of the movies are also canon, watch it all, be a real fan. fr.
I cant wait to see what you think of the final arc. Also thank GOD you skipped the Bount Arc
Yea that shit was so ass
@@ZolPsyko The Bount Arc has caused more damage to Bleach's reputation than any UA-cam video or internet slander ever could
Now here a real fact bro. ☝
Soul society is not the best arc in entirety of bleach. ☝
From arrancar arc and fullbring arc then the final arc of bleach which is the tybw - bleach will be go on different level of what peak is all about.☝
Kubo write bleach in different manner than its counterpart. Kubo want people to read or watch bleach like puzzle so reading it for 5x over is not enough even for an adult to catch what is the story of bleach realy is all about.☝
P.S. im following bleach manga for 20 years, rereading it multiple times over and i can still discover new things in kubo's insane writing.👌👌👌
I'm on the arracnar rn this shit is 🔥🔥🔥
"P.S. im following bleach manga for 20 years, rereading it multiple times over and i can still discover new things in kubo's insane writing"
i wonder what is that?
Skip the bounts arc(filler) and get into the arrancar arc for peak bleach
Bro wait until you get to the Arrancar vs Soul Society arc.
favorite bleach character mayuri
10:30 I disagree with the pacing thing.I thought the pacin was great and the lore was great.They weren't "throwing words" for me.They gave us the most important bleach lore overall
It was a little bit too much exposition for me, but it wasn't that bad.
Ayt ur opinion @ZolPsyko
Read Bleach. Manga is vastly superior to the Bleach Anime. The new TYBW is very very good.
skip all filler except rhe zanpaktou rebellion arc
its the only good one, trust me
its so hype with literally movie quality animation i have no idea why they snapped so hard on it
Naruto is leagues above one piece in bleach IMO. But im willing to start reading the op and bleach manga soon.
I already read the first chapters of all 3, but im gonna read op and bleach all the way through
"its not super deep" my guy it is literally the deepest of the big three by a significant margin. once you get to it, look at the philosophical war that is being waged with aizen vs kisuke. it is the underlying theme of the entire show. Nietzche vs Socrates. Not to mention all the religious symbolism, Ichigos self-acceptance arc, aizens hypocrisy. There is so much elite writing, dont skip over it!
deadass you just said narutard. your brain has melted out of your ears
There's nothing in there anymore
The non canon bount arc was prob the worst arc imo it dragged badly and the pay off from the fights was not helping either
