Ichigo's whole life is a f**king lie and it doesn't even faze him.

So really nothing about him will ever make sense. For that matter nothing about the series will ever make sense.

@Hierophant Yeah, but a lot of series have powers like from JJBA, I would not look into it that much.

Tite Kubo thinks he can make characters seem like they have matured and developed by giving them a wardrobe change. Its like if a character shows up in a cape, you know thats the stories way of saying they have gone through some epic developments, cause god knows you would never be able to tell otherwise.

"Ichigo has changed so much, hes not the same kid I remember when I met him..." AKA He grew his hair out a slight bit more (and then later got a haircut when the writers decided the point had gotten across over how much he has changed)


Yeah, he was at least good at character designs. He should've hired a ghost writer.


Reminds me of the Fullbring Arc: "We are going to show just how much everybody has matured by making the same exact thing happen again! And we will sit here and tell you how much he has grown up by showing him do the exact same things he did in episode 1 while fan favorites grin!"


Good concepts that go nowhere, I guess thats not a problem exclusive to Bleach. Sometimes its hard to judge when a show is actually trying compared to when they just get lucky. I am convinced the first couple seasons of Bleach was a lucky fluke.

I stopped reading the manga during the fullbringer arc cause I was certain it was not going anywhere and damn was I right, it has had no impact on anything important as far as I can tell.

Also. I just caught up with Hajime no Ippo. It's good to see Makunouchi hanging with Gonzales.

Normally, I'd apologize for spoilers, but it seems I have done you a service. B)

Speaking of Light Novels, Spice and Wolf is getting better. I really loved the anime, and the Light Novels I'm reading continue it.

But damn does it suffer from prose due to translation issues. It has all the wit and charm of a BioWare banter; a lighter version of The Witcher 2's politics converted into trade and the setting isn't all that bad either.

I might have to make it a project to rewrite the translations one day.

But it is not this day! This day I rant!


So the Yen Press publication is bad?


I have no idea about those. You see, they've only released like what? Eight volumes. There are seventeen and they plan to translate 3 a year.

Some fans (including me) thought that was too slow, so a generous guy/gal and her compadres translated the rest of the books and luckily for me, they finished early this year.

The link should be a few pages back.

The thing is, the prose is shaky, and though I am grateful for these guys and gals to have done so, it still irks me as someone who enjoys (like any sane readaholic) good prose.

But still, the story and characters are good enough for me to continue reading.

I mean, c'mon! The anime was freaking great!! It's hard not to love these two xD the way they constantly tease eachother and spar is amusing. That's why I said they remind me of some good BioWare characters.

Here's a little example I'll bold the parts that annoy me

"Reynolds smiled at Lawrence's indirectness and scratched his nose. He stared off into the
distance, whether he was scheming or at a complete loss. Lawrence sipped on some wine and
waited for him to continue. He soon raised his head."




I've watched the first season, but have no real interest in finishing the show. I can understand not wanting to wait two more years to finish the series. But if the translation is like that on every page, I wouldn't be able to finish it.

I wish someone could have warned me 10ish years ago when I first started up this nonsense. I could have watched 10 other animes in the time Ive wasted on this show.

I say that and yet I'm still reading the manga... :pinched:

Then again it was my favorite show way back in the day, so I doubt I would have listened.

Yeah, I'm just hoping ep 20 isn't going to be another "Ryuko is depressed/angery" episode.

More likely to be a "Ryuko is pubescent/angsty" episode. Ah well, after all the Harry Potter books and movies, I'm already used to this sort of thing.

Theres not much time before it ends, I don't think they will waste a whole lot of time on that kind of character arc at this point. Its interesting how much the situation changed in 1 episode. I like how most of the side characters have changed.

So be honest, who else is shipping Mako x Gamagori?

I heard the author is changing how things will end because of how popular the IP is.

At this point I guess you could pretty much call them a couple, its definitely going in that direction. Thats if Mako does not get killed off or anything along those lines...

Now they need to further develop NononxHouka. That's the OTP.
