Saphen Fasumbra Langardo Lots of anime/manga begin to have alternate "main goals" for the heroes. Hell, DBZ did. All the time. But as for all the other stuff, suspension of disbelief is key to...well, any fiction. Any form of entertainment involves the willingness to say "y'know what? It's just a show/movie/book/comic/etc., I should chill out". Nothing survives if all you do is point out every logical fallacy. @ KB: ...I'm all for criticism, but did you just compare Bleach to...Inuyasha? That's a low blow, my friend. That isn't entirely true. What I like to call fantasy-truth is always a factor in many shows. When a person is able to take a small leap of faith due to something that sounds logical *insert a billion star trek technology references here* For some people it makes a show that much better. The explanation of spell components for a mage or the different types of mythic metals that compose a weapon do help drive a story and a world. It goes the same way for character motivation. When someone who has nothing to do with a place suddenly feels like going there to destroy it the leap of faith is "Why did you switch your goal?" I agree, but that hasn't happened in Bleach. There is a great deal of explaining in Bleach ((which is part of the reason some people dislike it, due to the talky)), and the storyline, while not entirely logical, is still able to be followed if you just go with the flow. I could hate DBZ, as some people do, for some of the same reasons I could hate Bleach. Or for some of the same reasons people hate...Twilight. It all depends on the person, I suppose. I could kill this conversation by saying "WE ALL HAVE OPINIONS LOLE", but that would be lame.

Old Man KB Both the main characters are retarded, have size-changing swords, and stereotypical love interests. Difference being one of them is a fagwolf, and the other is Marowak. I'm pretty sure that makes them both furries. The only thing I liked about Inuyasha was that dude who loses his arm, and the only thing I liked about Bleach was the dude with the bird. Dude with the- CHAD! Ah. >_> I was lost. Had to go WAAAAAAY back in Bleach to remember that. Chad suffers from the Worf Effect, so he gets his a** stomped pretty often.

Though I would argue that the original story line of bleach suddenly fizzled out...for what seems like almost no reason. The hollows were hyped up so much and then it sorta became like 7th heaven. The focus switch just murdered it for me.

Old Man KB Bleach is basically the not good parts of Gundam now. The Seed area, right.

Old Man KB ........................................................... Bleach has a storyline? Is this the one about how Ichigo was all "YOU ATE MY MOM!" and then failed to finish off that Grand Fisher hollow, only to have it escape and swear revenge and then NEVER COME UP IN THE SHOW AGAIN?

All I know about the show is some f** with a girlfriend who has obscenely ugly hair uses his size-changing sword to flashstep after and kill mexican ghosts.
Surprisingly, no chucacabra, OR IS THERE?
Also Marowak, I really can't stress that point enough. The whole show would be better if they reversed the focus of the show, and make the Hollows the protagonists. And none of these faggots of the shinrimagimi who just decide to start wearing african headpieces. I mean like, actual, non-humanoid, full-on Hollows making their way in the world.
That'd just be awesome.

Fasumbra Langardo Actually, he did come up again. I know. But it was like 150 episodes later, Ichigo forgot about him entirely, never saw him when he came back for the 1 episode, and he was killed by someone else. I'm amazed he was even remembered enough to include there. You know... for someone who should have been an important plot piece.

He got a pretty important role there, seeing as he was killed by newly-revealed-as-a-shinigami Isshin Kurosaki, AKA Ichigo's Dad. Even if he got mook'd, everyone's a Mook to Big Daddy.

themightyjello Admit it, he was swept under the rug. Honestly? Yes. But who really cares when you have ******** broken-superpower Aizen running around? Plus when you consider that everything in the storyline was under Aizen's direction, Grand Fisher is much less impressive. Highlight for spoilers, BTW.
