Super Amazing Number One We’re No. 1 in Awesome!

Bleach Catchup

So I think I'm caught up with the Japanese airings of Bleach.  I watched from whatever episode we're up to in the US till we get past the time travelling 'filler' season.

Bleach is still a great fighting anime show.  The cliches sometimes run a little thick, but that's expected of the genre.  The show still manages to surprise me, though I feel like they're suprises I should have seen coming.

The power creep is always amusing.  Just like similar shows in the genre, one week's main characters could easily defeat themselves from the previous week.  And by the end of a few seasons they can pretty much blow up a planet.  Dragonball->Z->GT I'm looking at you.

Can't wait to see what happens next in Bleach though.  The last time I did this I got ahead of the US airings by about half a season.  Now I'm pretty sure I'm at least 5 seasons ahead.  whoops.  I guess I can watch all those Bakki the Grappler DVDs I bought.
