This week is going to be a very boring week. There will be no Naruto for tomorrow and there won’t be any in the next 2 weeks too (if the information in animenewsnetwork is accurate). Fortunately, there is still One Piece fix for me and I can have a Prison Break marathon having downloaded a whole chunk of episodes since yesterday. To make it even exciting, 4400 Season 4 will return next week. Don’t you just love the technology of broadband albeit the half past 6 service from Screamyx.

The Claymore storyline is progressing pretty nicely. At least it did not put me to sleep like some movie I mentioned before. I was pretty shocked when Clare is one of the lowest ranked Claymores in the region. But I’ve been reminded for many times that rank do not necessary constitute your real strength. I am beginning to see Miria is beginning to give Clare the benefit of the doubt. Maybe partly the reason is because Teresa’s blood is still running deep in Clare’s body. This episode comes in two parts; so next week is going to be awesome. And yeah, it always ends every time it reaches the end of the episode. Potong stim betul.

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.

It’s been a week and gosh there’s so many shows I haven’t watch. They are still sitting in my hard drive waiting for me to touch them. Since time is very limited, I only start to watch shows that I put in my highest priority list. You are right, I just finish watching Bleach 116 and Naruto shippuden 03.

I finish Death Note few hours ago. Right now Death Note is a little slow for me because the storyline has gone into another level. I remember my cousin told me the manga focuses more on apples. I think Bleach 116 was an awesome episode, where Aizen made his first appearance ever since he left soul society and after the Butoh arc because you know he had an extreme make over where he transform from a nerdish taicho (captain) into a stylish villain.

Can’t wait to see 117 because the Arrancars have just made their move in the real world. I tell you, their names are very hard to remember so I’ll just identify them with their funny faces. Honestly I don’t really like Grimmjow because I find him annoying. Annoyed with his stupidity and compulsiveness. Heh, if there’s a guiness world of record in that world, he’ll definitely win the “biggest wisdom teeth on earth” award.

One of my friend says he’s the combination of Ichigo and Aizen. Hmmm I didn’t know Aizen had sexual intercourse with Ichigo. Anyway I’m really excited to wait for Bleach 117 because it’s going to be a helluva episode.
