The other Bleach thread was getting pretty big and had a lot of old stuff in it. So I thought I'd create a new one.
Obligatory introduction:
Bleach is a manga series by Kubo Tite, the mangaka of Zombie Powder. It follows the life of Ichigo Kurosaki, a 15-year-old high school student with the ability to see ghosts, and a shinigami ("death god") named Rukia Kuchiki, who crosses paths with him one day while searching for a hollow (an evil spirit). During the ensuing confrontation with the spirit, she is wounded and forced to transfer virtually all of her powers into Ichigo. Thus the adventures of Ichigo and Rukia begin. Together they search for hollows and perform soul burials on wayward souls, cleansing the spirits and sending them to Soul Society. The early parts of the story focus mainly on the characters and their past, rather than the actual occupation of the shinigami. However, as events unfold, the story begins to delve deeper into the world of these shinigamis on the "other side" called Soul Society.
For manga scanlations, anime episodes, music and basically everything Bleach-related you should check out the website Bleach 7.
Aside from the manga, anime and OSTs there's also a radio show in Japan called "Bleach B Station" in which Morita Masakazu (Ichigo's Japanese VA) hosts a weekly show and interviews/jokes around with another VA from the show. I'm still in the process of uploading them all, but if this sounds like something you would be interested in you can go download what I've managed to upload by clicking on this link.
Finally, there is also "Beat Collections" in which various VAs sing songs. Some of them are quite good and catchy. I think Bleach 7 has those up.
Bleach is basically the only series I follow anymore now that I've completely finished Death Note. And even though it's starting to drag out ala Dragon Ball, it's still quite addictive. It also still has moments of greatness inbetween all the long fights (flashback arc for example). The anime filler, however, is no so much to my taste and I try to avoid it.
Now onto new stuff!
Not real, obviously.
I wonder how hard it would be to make a full fake chapter using older panels. I might get bored enough to try inbetween Bleach releases.
Translation of the fake page:
Panel one:
Grimmjow: Ulquiorra!!!
Panel four:
Vaizard Ichigo: Grimmjow... you... you're still alive?
