Having watched I think 2 seasons of it. Its good, its hurt by the anime/manga filler shit and buildup episodes like Naruto. Its a cool series with a nice concept thats getting (or has gotten) stretched too thin. I just stop caring for the characters after the second season.

Buildup is always good if it delivers. Give me a number of episodes you have seen, not season. IMO the series picks up a good portion around ep 18. Episodes 63+ through 110 were all filler which were not great honestly. In the first arc maybe 3 episodes were filler.

I've forgotten the exact episode number I left off at but I stopped watching after

Ichigo beats that dude with the braided hair. The strongest one in the soul society. Its the first time (I think?) Ichigo's alter ego eppears fully as it did in reality.

. I've watched the series (sporadically) up to that point. I liked season 1 though, its season 2 and the Soul Society arch that turned me off (the whole season seemed to span one or two days and consisted of them running around). Really didn't like it.

The point of them running is around is they had no idea

where the fuck rukia was, they soon discover she is being held in that white tower  so they head there but of course have to deal with byakuya.

Now after that big fight there was an unexpected twist.

spoiler (click to show/hide)
Aizen was not dead ( his sword mass-hyponotizes people) he faked his own death while making it seem as gin was the killer to hitsugaya and made it seem to Hinamori that the killer was hitsugaya. He was also was using ichigo and the others movement as a cover so he could kill the council and control soul society from the inside. He then explains about/takes the hougoku which is hidden in rukias body and has the power to make shinigami power go beyond the norm and acquire hollow powers. he then leaves soul society with gin and tousen to start an army in hueco mundo.

But yes the pacing could have used some work.

I refuse to sit through 18 episodes of anything in the hopes of it improving.*

*Not a big shonen action/fighting anime fan.

I'm not saying the first 18 are bad, because they aren't. Its just the show changes focus around there, from a modern city to soul society which is more traditional japanese looking.

Nice try, but I'm still not interested in the promise of improvement after blowing nearly nine hours of my life on something that doesn't appeal to me.

LOL Nice Try what, the first few episodes are the introduction of characters and the discovery of powers. Go ahead and not watch it, I don't give a shit.

Yeah. Shonen fight-a-thons don't do anything for me. Plus, I've got a huge backlog of stuff I need to get around to watching on DVD one of these days.

It has plenty of fighting, sure, but its for a purpose. It has a story and its good. Honestly one of the better animes I have seen, which is a lot. I don't watch much else atm.

It's a bit like listening to Free Bird. Yeah, the first half is kinda slow, but when it picks up with the guitar duel in the second half, it gets real good.

first guy to compare an anime to the anthemic Lynyrd Skynyrd song confirmed??? Man, I can't wait for the X360 version of Guitar Hero II...

Bleach sucks. Watch a real shonen anime like One Piece or Rurouni Kenshin Trust and Betrayel or the original Dragonball.
