Yeah Bleach 119. What about Bleach 119? Poor Burt because I think he was anticipating some cool fight scenes from the previous episode but it was a segment about Ikkaku’s flashback. I love flash backs, not the repetitive ones. I love them because it’s good to see some character developments.
The Eye - The days before Contact lenses were invented.
Although One Piece and Bleach are two different animes, I love One Piece’s character development even more. Why? Lazy to explain lah, how to elaborate 300 episodes in a single post? I’m digressing again. Bleach 119 was a decent episode, it features a short battle between the “Shaolin monk”Ikkaku and one of my favorite captain, Zaraki Kenpachi. I don’t think many people like this character though, most of them love Byakuya.
Look! A flying Shinigami! In the anime world, gravity is a myth and Isaac Newton is an heretic.
But it’s okay, not many people would like an eccentric character. Most of you may not know, I generally prefer an antagonist character than a protagonist one. Anyway, who would know a keh leh feh (minor) character will be given such exposure? Not me, but it’s great to see great fights. Now, whoever said Bleach looked exactly like Yu Yu Hakusho should eat back their own words.
The battle between a floating ice lizard and a Gundam wannabe
I like Yu Yu Hakusho but I hate the ending to the core. I followed the manga for 4 freaking years and the author decided to reward their readers with a stupiak ending. I am not a die hard fan of crappy endings. Seriously I don’t. Between YuYu and Bleach, I prefer Bleach although the story is still ongoing so I’ll judge the ending next time. From the way the manga story is going, Bleach still have a very long way to go before ending in grace.
Just imagine, One Piece manga has been around for a decade and the author said it only covers half way of the entire story. I’ve been following One Piece ever since I was a teenager and I guess I’ll be in my late 30s when the manga finishes. What about Bleach? Will it be lengthy? Well, I don’t really care. As long the plot remains fresh and intriguing, I don’t mind when it will end.
The Straw Hat Pirates.
Back row: Nakai Kazuya as Ronoroa Zolo, Yao Kazuki as Franky, Hirata Hiroaki as Sanji.
The Women from Left To Right: Tanaka Mayumi as Monkey D.Luffy, Kobayashi Yuko as Nico Robin, Okamura Akemi as Nami.
The squatting Dodo: Yamaguchi Kappei as Usopp.
I took this picture from Yamaguchi Kappei’s blog. I don’t think any one would give a damn about this but they are the voice actors of One Piece Anime. Who’s Yamaguchi Kappei? He is better known as the voice actor who played L in Death Note anime. A very talented and well known voice actor. Apparently he’s a guitar freak.
