shecarter I Have been a bleach fan since it first started airing on adult swim and picked up on eng subs quickly i have seen all the bleach movies so far, and they all stand out in their own way..with that being said... The animation in the opening credits is Spectacular. A remake/replay of HOllow ichigo vs Ulquiorra from the original bleach anime these scenes are a perfect example of how far you can push animation with a big budget behind it..in the opening credits Right after the bleach 10th anniversary logo you hear an eerie screech like sound affect (hollow ichigo) while the screen yet dark flashes an image .i had watched the movie 3 times before i spotted it.. If you read this check it out..it was hidden rather well as if put there to be subliminal ..and when i made out the image..honestly i was kinda creepd out ..it was Hollow ichigos mask.. with those yellow eyes staring right back at me..SCARYY!!...You can almost feel the murderous intent while watching the scenes and its clear that the strong, courageous,caring ichigo we had been watching all this time was not in control. This movie really put emphasis on that(CONTROL)And how if pushed far enough Ichigo would lose all control and become What some Call A Vasto Lorde.. which Is what the arrancar consider the strongest of the hollow, extremely rare in number It is said that their entire number within Hueco Mundo can be counted with the fingers on one's hands. The combat capabilities of a Vasto Lorde are above those of the captains of the Gotei 13Movie was great:P

rushknight I have been a fan of Bleach ever since it first came out as an animated series. The first 50 or so episodes were golden, absolutely brilliant, because there was a clear goal in mind for Kurosaki Ichigo. Once the goal had been achieved, however, the show's entertainment value ebbed considerably. The entire show has just become another aimless soap opera for Japanafreaks.Unfortunately, this movie is no different from the usual Bleach stuff. It's VERY formulaic and really introduces nothing new. It feels as thought the writers have a template that they routinely just plug different ideas into and come out with the next movie. Allow me to demonstrate:..........Ichigo chillin."Oh noes! Someone needs help (insert victim here)." "Hey Ichigo, we're here to help (insert Ichigo's friends here)." "I'm your enemy Ichigo (insert new opponent here)!" "RAAAAAWWWRRRRR (insert Ichigo getting angry here)!"Fight begins. (Super-mega-ultra-power-blasts inserted here) Pause fight for enemy character development. (Insert storyline for enemy here)"My drama is stronger than your drama Ichigo!" (Insert enemy drama-blasts here) "Oh noes! I've been defeated!" (Ichigo's drama-blasts fail to overcome enemy drama-blasts)"What did you learn Ichigo?" (insert Ichigo's lesson here) "I will use my new knowledge to become more drama-powerful and defeat my enemy!" (Ichigo's drama level rises by 10)Fight resumes. (Ichigo's drama-blasts succeed. Enemy is defeated and all Ichigo's friends are saved)Ichigo goes home and resumes chillin...........And that pretty much sums up most of the Bleach episodes and movies.Again, I like Bleach, and I overall enjoyed this movie, but I feel at this point that the makers are simply not willing to move on with their story. I feel like the show has essentially been "paused" for some time now, and I'm just waiting for it to.. well.. DO something. Anything.

siderite I didn't expect more or less than what I got. Kurosaki finds somebody to protect from a powerful enemy, then goes and kicks their asses, usually spewing some gratuitous speech about not giving in to darkness. But it's fun. I really wish Ichigo wouldn't be the strongest thing there is, with his friends only there to take care of the evil supporting characters and I really would have liked him to win a battle without using overwhelming force. Alas, not happening.As for the plot, Hell looked and felt pretty cool at the start, but then it got pretty boring. The last fight was a bit disappointing as well. However the film did not descend into ridiculous and the storyline was more or less consistent. It does get annoying, though, when new realms are discovered periodically, with stronger and stronger enemies and somehow the shinigami, who are now totally puny and powerless, maintain that condescending superior tone and preach all the time. Maybe they should have been called sekkyogami instead.

a_einstein61 This is the fourth movie of the bleach. I just watched it and i liked very much. This one has more action and more furious . After watching all other movies of bleach I can easily say that this one is the better one .Nowadaws i always watch movies after and after but there is nothing that i taste good. They are always have weak scenarios, most of them waste of time. Because of this i started to watch anime series , and because of the anime series like bleach i will continue watch these magnificent works . There are may be no special effect but who cares once you taste it there is no way back :) In the anime series of the bleach there is always action but in the earlier movies of the bleach there are less action than this one . It is a good thing that they decided to make a movie such as the anime series and so I suggest you to watch this movie without thinking . If you already love bleach there is no more words that I need to say . Have fun .
