here are
my thoughts after watching all of the 96 (had to fast forward the
last 10) episodes so far...
The story doesn't quite make it for me.
The characters are shallow and lack character development. There's
physical ordeal, yes, seeing how much blood Ichigo has shed. But
there's only 1 episode of emotional ordeal, seeing how her sister
was nearly killed in episode one. It's hard pressed for me to
believe that he would go that far to do what he is doing or claim
to do, save the world.
The lack of believability is very obvious since I just finished
watching Full Metal Alchemist prior to Bleach.
