Why was this manga called Bleach

No, but it was entertaining as all hell.

Absolutely not. I remember the utter shitshow that occurred when Bleach ended, and it made me REALLY glad that Bleach wasn't the first of the Big three that I poured all my time into.

I hope. Felt like a 'fuck you' to anyone who kept on reading.

No. There were way too many filler fights with forgettable side characters and villains. Bleach got way too crowded after soul society.

>implying SS wasnt like that too
Take off your nostalgia goggles

Soul Society had some issues, that aren't immediately apparent until every other arc repeats it. Introducing a billion characters all at once was world building in SS, but then you have all the Arrancar, and all the Quincies. Ichigo also needs a pocket healer to sustain his fighting, it was the medical ninja they kidnapped in SS and Nel's saliva in Hueco Mundo. Ultimately Aizen didn't even need Rukia OR Orohime for his plans.

Before we went to Soul Society, we had Japanese Ghost Busters, which many of us liked, but wasn't doing well in the ratings. Ichigo's mother was killed by Grand Fisher, who escapes and vows to return and defeat Ichigo. This was obviously an attempt to create a narrative through line on the episodic monster of the week fights, like how in Stardust Crusaders every random stand user they meet is a soldier of Dio, who they need to defeat by a certain date to save Holly. The promise of something maybe happening in the future with Grand Fisher didn't really do much to drum up interest, so the way the series was proceeding was changed up drastically, which was a success. Kubo is probably the type of person that wants to write Ghost Busters and Fullbringer pacing arcs, but the fans like Soul Society and Hueco Mundo arcs. Grand Fisher was meant to be Ichigo's menace, the source of his first and greatest trauma... Ichigo had no involvement in it's defeat and as far as we know doesn't even know it's dead. It's funny because Ichigo is told that the quincy king is the reason that his mom was powerless against Grand Fisher, and I imagine Ichigo being like yeah I still can't find that bastard who killed Mom, and Isshin having to break it to him that he killed him two years ago. Because it'd be fucked up to tell Ichigo that he killed his mom's killer and then also avoid telling him about his mom at all.

Tl,dr: When asking if something is good, you have to look at what was done and WHY it was done.

Kubo truly was the best Bleach character

it was a fun read/watch until the fullbringer arc , fuck that shit

It all went downhill when the arancar were introduced hastily, up until that time the plot seemed very well thought out along with power levels ect.

uruhara also had legitimate interest in the hougoku.

>arancar were introduced hastily
How? They were introduced gradually. First Ulquiorra and Yammy, then Grimmjow and his minions, etc
>uruhara also had legitimate interest in the hougoku.
Yes. And? What are you trying to imply?

aight

Not going to pretend like it was a masterpiece, but i thoroughly enjoyed it even if it did have a giant powercreep problem
