Ichigo versus Hollow Ichigo: Good vs Evil

Ichigo - the protagonist of the series who became a Shinigami thanks to Rukia Kuchiki


Hollow Ichigo - Ichigo's hollow form that wishes to overtake Ichigo. 

In the episodes and manga, Ichigo and his inner self, Hollow Ichigo, have fought. However, to be honest, I think Hollow Ichigo is more badass than Ichigo. Why? Two words: Fighting style. Ichigo is more of a defensive fighter and Hollow Ichigo is more on the offense. Ichigo fears being cut while Hollow Ichigo is shown being relentless. Another difference is their personalities: Ichigo cares for his family and friends and Hollow Ichigo cares for power and the consummation of Ichigo's body. The more Ichigo uses his Hollow mask, the more the Hollow inside of him is getting stronger. Hollow Ichigo called Ichigo the "King," but it seems as if Hollow Ichigo's fighting style and capabilities outweigh Ichigo's own will. Even Zangetsu (Old man) couldn't defeat the Hollow inside of Ichigo. How will Ichigo cope with his inner hollow in the New Filler Arc? Will Hollow Ichigo make another appearance in the Manga? 

And the winner is....

Looks like the winner for Bleach'ss cutest girl is..........Nozomi Kujo, the new anime filler girl arc. Not much is known about her except that she's a Shinigami whose skilled with Kido and thinks Kon's annoying and perverted. Hopefully more will come for our new heroine in the new bleach filler arc. Thanks for the supports. The new poll is up.

Yachiru Kusajishi: Kenpachi's #1 Supporter

"Who's that on Captain Zaraki's back?

"I don't know. It looks like a little girl."

"Why would a little girl hang around with Captain Zaraki?"

Yachiru Responds: "I'm 11th division Lieutenant silly. Isn't that right, Kenny?"

Kenpachi Responds: "Yeah."

What can be said about Lieutenant Yachiru Kusajishi? Well, she's small, cute (in terms of personality and face), and is self-proclaimed Kenpachi Zaraki's #1 Supporter. In every fight that her captain has been in, she's been cheering him on and trying not to get in the way. She says "No one can defeat Kenny." She is on good terms with her loyal Shinigami, but tends to be a nuisance to Ikkaku and Yumichika of the 11th Division. Her history is unclear, but she witnessed the color of blood at the young age. She saw Kenpachi (before being called Zaraki) kill and she followed him afterwards. Not much is known about her at all, but her strength (when watching the Ichigo and Kenpachi fight) shows that she is strong (when telling a soldier to get lost because she wanted to watch the fight). Out of all the 11th division members, Yachiru is the only girl who has become a lieutenant under her captain. Hopefully, more will come for Bleach and maybe, Yachiru's past and powers will be unleashed.

Rangiku Matsumoto: Captain Hitsugaya's Inspiration

What can be said about this women. She's hot, sexy, has a huge bust, likes to drink, inspired someone to become a Shinigami (eventually became her captain), and is a childhood friend of former captain Gin Ichimaru. If you guessed Rangiku Matsumoto of the 12th division, then you are correct! She is probably one of Bleach's most sexiest women. She did have a troublesome history, but she managed to somewhat pull through thanks to her old friend, Gin. She eventually rose up and became part of the Gotei 13 and even inspired a young man by the name of Hitsugaya Toshiro to become a Shinigami, who'll end up being her captain. She not only has a seductive side, but she also has a caring side. She cares for her friends like fellow lieutenants Kira Izuru and Momo Hinamori and is protective of her captain as well. Hope to see more of Rangiku Matsumoto as Bleach progresses throughout the anime and manga.

Nozomi Kujo

What's this? Why a new girl that's introduced the new Bleach Anime Filler Arc. However, nothing much is known about her except that she was or is a Shinigami who is skilled with Kido (as seen when fighting against Kira and Nanao). Kon, the comic relief of Bleach, found a naked unconscious Nozomi on the street. So far, she refers to Kon (whose in Ichigo's body) as a pervert, stupid pervert, or stupid perverted freak. From what I've seen of her, she looks like a fragile looking girl with a slim body, green hair, and brownish looking eyes. The question is: Will she possibly fall for Ichigo later on in this Arc? Hopefully, this Arc is interesting.

Ichigo's regains his powers

It took a long time, but finally our hero, Ichigo Kurosaki, has gained some his powers back. Upon fighting with Jackie, his fullbring was said to be going berserk. However, as Jackie insisted on stopping the training, Ichigo pushed forward and as a result........regained his powers. As Tsukishima entered Xcution's lair, he found Ichigo and Jackie's training. Just as things were about to turn for the worst, Ichigo reappears wearing a black kimono like before. Let's hope that the future chapters will be even better.

Jackie Tristan

Talk about a few of bleach's gorgeous women: Orihime Inoue, Tatsuki Arisawa, Rukia Kuchiki, Rangiku Matsumoto, and so on and so forth. There are tons of HOT bleach women, but there's one that strikes me as "unattractive, ugly, and unladylike." Her name is Jackie Tristan, a member of Xcution alongside Ginjo, Riruka, Giriko, etc. Sure she has big marshmallows, but the face.......WHAT THE HECK!? Damn, I guess in an anime, there'll always be that one "special" chick. Well, to be honest, I think she's just okay. Nothing, however, compared to the previous mentioned. So far, she is Ichigo's opponent and has activated her fullbring called dirty boots." Anyways, let's see what this Jackie Tristan will do to our hero for the future chapters to come. Heck, she may even (possibly not) soften up to me.

Rukia Kuchiki: The Inspiration

Rukia Kuchiki was just a lowly Shinigami that was stationed at Karakura town where our hero, Ichigo Kurosaki, lives. However, upon arrival, a hollow overpowered her. Ichigo Kurosaki was just your average teenage boy who just so happens to see ghosts and his fated meeting with Rukia will forever change his life. Ichigo has sworn to protect his family from hollows after his family was actually attacked by one. Ichigo became the substitute Shinigami (or soul reaper) of Karakura Town, but got a majority of Rukia's spirit energy. It is because of the two fated people that Rukia has shown an appreciation to Ichigo as a friend, fellow Shinigami, and a leader.It is most likely that Rukia could even be Ichigo's adjutant or vice-captain if he were to become a captain someday of the Gotei 13 (or 13 Squads). So let's be thankful that Rukia was the one that made Ichigo what he is today: A Shinigami, a Visored, and a normal teenage boy who is willing to protect.

Shonen Jump is taking a break this week

As we all know, the new Bleach arc currently is progressing slowly. We can only wait to know what will happen next to our hero. To be honest, I am a fan of Shonen Jump and respectively, they have some of the greatest Manga series I've seen such as: Bleach, One Piece, Naruto, Reborn, Ultimo, etc. However, as a Manga fan, I always get upset when they have their "breaks." To be fair, artists need breaks and its the readers that are upset (like myself). However, we must stay strong and hope that next week will be a good week for a Bleach chapter. We can only wait.....we can only wait. We can only.....(snores).......(wakes up)...........WAIT (yells in agony and repeatedly says Why, jk)

Also, let us pray for Japan as they recover from the recent disasters.

Riruka Dokugamine

In the new Bleach Manga Arc, there is a new girl introduced named Riruka Dokugamine. She is a member of Xcution and currently resides alongside members Jackie, Yukio, Giriko, and their leader: Ginjo. Out of all the members of Xcution, she seems to be the youngest. At first, she didn't know what Ichigo looked like until she flashed a light in his face. And then...."He's a hottie!" is what Riruka said about Ichigo, indicating that she may have harbored feelings for Ichigo at first sight. This is what'd you call "Love at First Sight." However, she'd not as attached to Ichigo just yet unlike Orihime and Neliel. Let's see how things pull through.

So far the votes are: Orihime and Ichigo (100%)
                               Neliel and Ichigo (0%)
                               Riruka and Ichigo (0%)
                               Rukia and Ichigo (0%)
                               Tatsuki and Ichigo (0%)

Neliel Tu Odelschwanck

Nel or Neliel Tu Odelschwanck was the former 3rd Espada. She is kind, thoughtful, and dislikes violence amongst her comrades. However, her mask was broken by a man named Nnoitra Gilga and she reverted back into her child-like form along with Dondochakka and Pesche. Ever since her mask broke, she lost all her memories and later regained them when she was called to protect her knight in shining armor: Ichigo Kurosaki. Her adult form is that of a young, beautiful, and busty looking woman, but she still retains some sort of childish manner when she embraced Ichigo to death. What happned to Nel after the arrancar arc, no one knows, except for Tite Kubo. Hopefully, Nel will return and maybe....just maybe: A love triangle? Nel + Orihime = Tension. Nel + Orihime + Ichigo = Love Triangle.

Vote now: Orihime and Ichigo (100% say yes) - 2 votes
                 Nel and Ichigo (0%) - 0 votes
                 Riruka and Ichigo (0%) - 0 votes

Inoue Orihime

"Teenage Love is so special. It embarks a journey for the fated couple as they start a new life anew together, forever."

Inoue Orihime, as you may know, has confessed to Ichigo (in his sleep) that if she were to have 5 lives, all 5 lives would love Ichigo Kurosaki. She's also been protected by her knight in shining armor, so it's no surprise that she'd fall for him. Inoue Orihime's character is kind, thoughtful, caring, clumsy, cute, and most of all: HOT! I believe that the fated couple: Orihime and Ichigo, was meant to be. Of course, it is up to Tite Kubo to expand more on that and hopefully....he will. Maybe, there'll be a big kiss scene between the two. Who knows? Only Tite Kubo knows.

Vote now: Orihime and Ichigo? (100% say yes) - 2 votes
                 Nel and Ichigo? (0%) - 0 votes
                 Riruka and Ichigo? (0%) - 0 votes

Orihime? Nel? Riruka?

Three girls in the Bleach Manga, from what I've seen, have developed an interest to protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki. And of course: I'm still in favor of Orihime getting together with Ichigo, but IF that were not to happen: then what about Ichigo's other interests? Nel, the arrancar and former 3rd Espada, has taken an interest in Ichigo while she was stuck in child form. It is because of Ichigo's kindness that Neliel (or Nel) has taken an interest in Ichigo. Riruka, on the other hand, is a new girl who is part of Xcution and said "OMFG he's a hottie!" So this claims that Riruka may have taken an interest in Ichigo and this could be love at first sight. But who can truly be considered Ichigo's interest? Hopefully...we'll find out.

Orihime X Ichigo?
Nel X Ichigo?
Riruka X Ichigo?

Bleach Dubbed Madness: No No and NO!

The dubbed for Bleach, now that I think about it: SUCKS! Most dubbed animes, in my opinion, aren't as perfected as their Japanese counterparts. I believe that the dubbed are only doing these voices because they're getting paid. They're not making any effort whatsoever to try and portray the character in the story. I mean, some animes follow that, and some don't. Bleach is an example that doesn't. Voices for Bleach aren't suited for some character such as Noitora, Grimmjow, and as a matter of fact: THE ESPADA. I mean, come on, try and portray them accordingly to how they're supposed to be portrayed as. That is why I say, Boo Dubbed, Yay Subbed.

Orihime X Ichigo Tribute Poem

~Love is a strange thing

it makes one question one's connection to others

Are you forever indebted to them for saving you?

Are you blinded by help?

Are you misjudged due to your ineptness?

Do you need saving?

Do you need someone to hold you tight?

Love wavers in your heart tonight

Love makes you turn red in the face

While your knight in shining armor doesn't want to make any mistakes

This love poem or song or whatever is tributed to the bleach couples

Orihime X Ichigo: Please get together for us.~

Reunited and it feels so good: Orihime X Ichigo

Inept. Beautiful. Kind. Thoughtful. Considerate. And Shy: Orihime Inoue, without a doubt, is the ideal girl in the Bleach Universe. She is also known for her large watermelons, which make a lot of girls envious of her. Best friends with Tatsuki, good friends with Ichigo, Uryu, and Chad: Orihime has made a name for herself in Bleach. And on top of it: Orihime Inoue LOVES Ichigo Kurosaki. She has told Ichigo (While asleep) that if she were to live and have 5 lives, she'd eat the same food, she'd get the same job, and she'd...fall in love with the same guy 5 times. To be honest, when I saw that, I fell in love with idea of Orihime and Ichigo getting together. I mean, they match. Orange hair. Protective of friends. Thoughtful individuals. And on top of it: their names start with I's. If that isn't coincidence, then what is it then? Fate? Interpret it whatever you may, but I do hope this match progresses in the future bleach chapters to come. ORIHIME X ICHIGO 4EVER! 

Live Action Bleach Project...

From what I've seen on the internet, there is a plan to be an upcoming Bleach live action film. To be honest, as a man whose heard of adaptations of anime and video games being panned by critics, it'll probably be the same for this one. Panning this so called "live action" film would be no surprise whatsoever. How they can is a big question? How can they make, in my own opinion, a masterpiece into a Hollywood debut? Who would play the roles is a major and crucial point. Casting Casting Casting is important to Hollywood in producing and filming a film. Who'd portray Ichigo Kurosaki, the protagonist? Who'd portray Orihime Inoue, the love interest? And who's portray Chas, Uryuu, and others characters; not to mention the Shinigami characters like Urahara Kisuke and Yoruichi? Portrayals of these characters is a big big deal for Bleach and if they can't match that and simply copy off the ideas of DBZ's or Street Fighter, I think I'm going get extremely angry like the Hulk going smashy smashy. So to sum it all up: this idea of bleach is a nice way of making money and trying to see if it can make a debut, but maybe it'll be a downfall because, as all adaptations are: there live action counter parts can't compare to the original.

And the next question is: Who is the director of the film? Who would produce it? How much money would it make if it were actually good? Will it make enough money for a possible sequel or definitely be panned by critics? Who'd the main bad guy? Who would be suitable to measure up to Aizen Sousuke? IS THE IDEA OF BLEACH GOING TO PISS ME OFF OR IS IT GOING TO BE SOMETHING I DIDN'T EXPECT? Well, let's see if it will come true....or not.

The New Bleach!

So, what is there to say exactly about the new bleach arc? Well, in my opinion, three words: Awesome. Intriguing. And most of all: SLOW! I know many bleach fans are wondering "Whats taking so long?" Well, to be honest, it's a new story line and we should be patient with Tite Kubo's creativity. I know it looks somewhat boring, weird, and slow paced, but that's where we are proven wrong when Tite Kubo starts picking up the pace and making this new story arc interesting, So let's practice patience and we'll realize that this new arc will soon turn for the better.....I hope.

Clarification? Elaboration? Continuation? Explanation?

As you are well aware bleach fans: The Fake Karakura Town Arc ended in....to be honest, disappointment. So many things left unsaid and unclear. The following is what is missing: Grimmjow's status, Nel's status, Gantenbainne's status, Isshin's status, Masked fighters aftermath, Ichigo's classmates thought on him, and other arrancars fates (loly, menoly, etc). Well, it comes to this question: IS THERE GOING TO BE ANY EXPLANATION ON ALL THIS OR WILL IT BE LEFT ALONE? I truly DO hope there will be more than just leaving out things. I believe Tite Kubo will fill in the story, but it's so tiresome to not know. Well, there is this new Arc and two others. Hopefully, questions will be answered with answers.
