Board 8 > *~BLEACH~* a watchthrough topic (spoilers)

(+) Yeah! (+)

Our heroes encounter 3 foes with strange powers who seem to be villains, only to find out that they were working with the mentor-character all along. Meanwhile, a more dangerous group of enemies is up to no good. Our heroes and the 3 ex-foes must team up to stop them before something horrible happens.

I dunno. They both seem pretty parallel to me. And the first parts of each arc were incredibly parallel.

Yeah.... the early part is nearly identical. The similarity with the rest of the arc ends at "now the real bad guys show up"

Kon has slowly become my favorite part of this show.

Every episode I hope he gets a hold of Orihime's rack and now that Rukia is back, her's too.

I've been trying to find a YYH equivalent to Kon and all i'm coming up with is Pu but Kon is way better than Pu ever was.

Then it's a good thing Pu didn't talk as much as Kon does.

WHY BLEACH!?!?!? Why must you be so bad right now?!?!?!?

didn't we warn you about this s***

In fairness, with the exception of a few standalone episodes, that's pretty much the worst it gets.

That said, the worst episode of the arc and possibly the show is still to come. At least you have the filler arc's last third to look forward to, where stuff actually happens.

Well we are pretty much into the whole Bount story right now. Jin, a scarey Bount guy wants to eat a living soul so he can create some crazy gateway between the hollow world and the human world or something like that.

So Jin is Sensui and he's linking the two worlds and Yusuke, I mean Ichigo must stop him. Aces.

I've started to enjoy the episodes again now that scooby doo filler crap is essentially over.

Starting to get the feeling that Uryu will be getting his quincy powers back soon.

The gang from Scooby Doo would have made this arc hilarious.

oh and Mayuri totally looks like he should be a bad guy and not a computer geek with access to the archives, albeit limited access since he doesn't even have the passwords for Bount information.

That hospital part....I stopped watching bleach there for awhile but got back into it some time later. The arc started getting better and then the show got awesome for a while after that :D

There is no shame in not knowing; the shame lies in not finding out

I saw the cover of a Bleach video game (recent i think) where Ichigo looks like he was aged by 10 years. I really wish i hadn't seen that but it makes me really really really want to fly through the next couple seasons.

twenty minutes of ichigo and renji slashing water with swords

HEY DUDES IT'S NOT WORKING

I am almost watched some episodes this weekend, then I didn't.
>_>

I don't want this to die so I'm going to make a point to watch a few more this week. I've put this much time into it, no reason to stop now.

for what it's worth, it gets a little better after the twin bount episodes

Topic reminded me that I'm up to episodes 75/76. I watched the soul society arc about 2 years ago and loved it, but got to about episode 70 and stopped... Recently started watching from the beginning again but barely made it any further >.<

So we are like neck and neck almost.

If it wasn't for Dexter Season 5 being out on DVD right now I'd totally be watching more.

I tried to watch an episode last night in bed via a netbook and the picture and the sound would not match up. It was killing me. Sure, its subtitled and I don't NEED the sound but i still couldn't handle it. I'm pretty sure its a netbook issue and not a netflix issue but after 4 minutes I had to shut it off. Maybe netflix is trying to tell me something.

What episode was it? Was it right after the water bounts (starting out with arrow lad milling around)?
Because the same thing happened when I tried watching it. It lasted for a couple episodes before the episodes synched again.

Naw it was with the Water Bounts.

Its actually been happening a lot lately (well not lately since i haven't been watching, but lately as in the most recent episodes i've been watching)

Netflix keeps emailing asking about the quality of the picture and i'm always like "the picture was great! but the sound is crap!"

I dont think they care too much.

Well, I just went online and watched the episodes in English until I got to an episode that wasn't desynched.

It wasn't too bad. Of course, I had watched some earlier episodes in English.
But they weren't too different, IMO.

Pretty much any big name anime is going to have a decent dub these days. Maybe not as good, but certainly nothing cringe worthy.
