Bleach Movie Out December 6th!

New Trailer!

Only once before has a movie been this eagerly awaited and prayed for, and that was Advent Children, dear lord please let this be as good as that or you are making enemy!

Bleach 1 English Dub

Was searching for this all day! Here it is...

Sonic the Hedgehog

Ok, so not strictly anime but by god does this game look good! November 11th Playstaion 3 hits these shores, March 2007 for Europe, this is penned as a release title and I want it!

Bleach 95 (They got the blanket, why sleep on the grass?)

Can It possibly be? The fillers by some freak occurance have actually become quite good? This episode was really enjoyable. The promised battle of Byakuya Vs Kariya actually turned out to be a great fight, and even Ichigo turned up and unleashed his bankai to boot. Granted I could still gripe about how the animation is still a bit poo and the character designs look different but at least things are happening now. The bount are manipulating the lower class souls in Rukongai by spinning some class uprising story in order to enlist their help to get revenge on Seireitei. They could lead to an actual confict although im not sure how this would be rectified for the return to manga storylines, nevertheless, when Bleach is good I am happy and Bleach was good this week. More Please!

Bleach Manga 240

The boys are off to cause trouble in Hueco Mundo to rescue yet another maiden in distress. This time their path is into Hollow teritory and the new wizard of OZ Aizen is currently assesing how useful Orihime can really be to their cause. In this chapter Orhime's power is revealed to be much stronger than we were initally led to believe. Rather than simply healing, her powers reject events in time and reconstruct the past so that in this case Grimjows arm is completely restored. But he is not finished, he asks Orimhime to reject the Hollow hole in his back and on doing so Grimjow regains the number six which marks his rank within the Espada. Not too happy about having been replaced, Luppi speaks up and faces the rath of Grimjow's newly replaced apendage. Grimjow certainly apppears to be quite the loose cannon and Aizen is going to need to control his creations temper tantrums if he is going to stand against he newly formed trio of Ichigo, Chad and Ishida. As usual the Manga is awsome and helps ease the pain of what the anime has become.

NANA 2 - Out Dec 9th

Translation to the best of my abilities)
(start)
(on screen: One year since then...)
(Dialogue: Hachiko)
Hey Nana,
Why is it that dreaming and finding hapiness are seperate things?
Please, Nana
Stand up one Time!
(END)

Yes, Its time to pull on the bubblegum pop emo pants once again as the second NANA movie is on its way and I for one cant wait. Even as I type those words I know its wrong. There is a big cast rejig from what I have heard, Im pretty sure Hachiko is played by a different actress, Im asuning MIka Nakashima is still on board but its still too early to tell.

Update: Literally three seconds of research gave me more info on this. Mika Nakashima is still in it but Hachiko previously played by Aoi Miyazaki is being replaced by Yui Ichikawa of "The Grudge" fame and the guy who played Ren, Ryuhei Matsuda (Gohatto, Blue Spring, Cutie Honey) is aparantly getting changed too. On a side note I really hate teaser trailers which just use stock footage, just like the bleach movie trailer, its just mean!

Bleach 94

Not so bad I thought this week, the animation is still shoddy as hell but I think they managed to inject a little irony into the pointless plotlines. Nice to see Kenpachi and Yachiru on screen once again. The hightlight of this weeks episode was Ganju and his posse summoning up bonnie-chan and all of the other boars for ichigo and team to ride into battle. Ichigo however was not having any of it and decided to shunpo all the way back to soul society like the poser he is. Another highlight came during the opening title sequence when we got a climps of what Grimjow is going to look like assuming they ever get out of this frustratingly pointless filler.



The end of the episode set up an almight scrap betwixt Kuchiki Byakuya and Kariya, but since its filler expect them to just have a quiet picnic which wont effect or upset anything which matters. There is no bleach 95 this week and Dattebayo put out a fake one for some reason which was actually just episode 91 by another subbing team. You think they could put their free time to better use than this as its just confusing. Intersetingly enough I got 94 not by using BT but Bleach Portals IRC site which seemed to be faster. Anyway, here it is...

Bleach - English Dub Airs Sep 9th

The voices sound quite appropriate, and I hear its going to be unedited so I might give it a shot.
