Summary: Ichigo Kurosaki is a completely normal highschooler all except for one thing… he can see ghosts. His life was pretty much normal until he meets a girl named Rukia Kuchiki. It turns out that Rukia is a shinigami, a supernatural being that slays evil spirits called hollows, and helps escort lost spirits to soul society. When Ichigo’s family is attacked by a hollow and the newly-met shinigami is injured, Rukia transfers her powers to Ichigo! Now Ichigo is a shinigami himself and must help protect lost souls and innocent humans! (SUMMARY BY RAISUME)

Ratings:
Raisume’s: A very good manga, contains lots of the stuff that is required for a shounen manga. Mainly outrageous fightscenes where they power up in ungodly levels as the fight progresses. This is the second manga I’ve ever read and it keeps me looking forward ’till the next issue comes out. The artwork of this manga isn’t the best I’ve ever seen, but like I always say, it’s better than I could ever do. An always present theme in most shonen mangas, the bad guys have utterly ridiculous powers. Most of the antagonists aren’t very fun to look at either. The plot, like most other mangas, is what keeps me coming back. The humor can also be sometimes very strained, like Tite Kubo put it there at the last minute, which can make the reader feel very awkward. So far, the manga has over 300 chapters, and with long mangas comes repetitiveness. As the story arcs progress, it feels as if the same things happen again and again, only with different characters.

Gosuto’s: I like Bleach because it has a good storyline and it’s an exciting read. All of the blood and gore is very satisfying as well. Reading this manga keeps me occupied, that is, until I have to wait for the next chapter! Bleach gets a 10/10

Tsuukushi’s:
Bleach is definitely a well done manga, I found the plot very well done, and the fight scenes were irresistible. The manga always keeps you wanting more and keeps you on your toes. I didn’t mind the artwork, though I must admit I have seen better. I found the humor well done, but sometime’s Tite Kubo added it in at random, making me and maybe other readers confused. I must agree with Raisume that Bleach can be repetitive just taking a little creativeness out of the picture. Nontheless, I must say Bleach is a fantastic manga over all, but just like others, has the smallest of let downs.
