Bleach!

Okay, since ANBU and AonE split on Naruto, I started downloading the ANBU eps since ANBU were the translators of the two, and on their tracker I saw this anime, Bleach.

A friend of mine says that a lot of Naruto fans like it, so I downloaded eps 1 and 2, part of 5 and currently downloading 3. (Five is the newest and had over 2K more seeds than leeches, so I figured I'd get a great speed downloading it, somewhere in the 80s to 100, but turns out I was getting 5-8, so I canceled.)

Anyways, so far the first episode from what I've watched is pretty damned cool.

Watching this anime makes me think of Naruto for the comedy, Kenshin for the sword fighting, and Yu Yu Hakusho for the fact it deals in spirit slaying.

Anyways, here's a link to ANBUs tracker that has the first five eps available for download via BitTorrent.

And, on a side note as most should know, this is 100% legal in any country outside Japanese law since the anime is not yet licensed outside Japan.

The link for the tracker is here.

Yeah, Bleach is one awesome anime. I saw ep 5 this morning.
I agree with you that it's similar to yu yu hakusho. I want to get the opening song, but I can't find the full version anywhere. I recommend Bleach to anyone who likes naruto and yu yu.

yeah actually i didn't quite get into bleach until quite a few manga chapters in, before the anime was released.

the anime's been done pretty faithfully with regard to the manga, but i'd say the first 2 or 3 episodes have been pretty ho hum, but i guess that's par for the course for most animes. it does get a lot better, especially with episode 6 and the introduction of kon (who i hear is actually being voiced by the manga artist)

I've watched the first 11 episodes, and its pretty good to me. I really wasn't a fan of Naruto, although I was interested in Yu Yu. The only thing I don't like is the fact that the main char is obsessed with using forms of "be" incorrectly.. lol. His sword reminds me of Cloud in the fact that its big as hell. When your opponent says something like "How the hell can he use a sword that BIG".. that's priceless. Anyways, definately look into it.

heh, I havn't actually seen the anime, But I have read the first 2 volumes of the manga and I thouroly enjoyed it. The characters were pretty interesting and the idea of it was not to bad. Some pretty good humor in it too. And yes, the big sword is just...*chuckles to self*...cloudish.

I'm up to Ep. 17 now and I'm enthralled with it...

I found a better tracker for it too... http://www.bleachportal.net... They even got the manga.

Ive read up to the third volume. If you want the manga a good site for it is. [Edited--please don't provide links to licensed properties. ~SSJ4 Goku ]

I've watched the first five episodes, and read the first volume of the manga, it's a really great show. One of my favorites. As Musa said, Bleachportal is pretty much the best source out there. It's even got the latest episodes out for direct download, which is handy dandy... Oh and Animaniac: Bleach is shown on Tuesdays every week in Japan.

God its good. My friend introduced it to me a while ago but I was still into RO. I've been watching the same eps over and over the last few days ... and want to start downloading manga now since I need to know what's next *__*. Interestingly enough, there isn't a character I hate in this series, in the 20 episodes that Ive seen. I LOOVE all of them. XD; Which is actually pretty rare, especially considering it has a lot of characters.

The anime has a lot of yaoi implications too :B *waves IchiIshi flag* /ho ~

[These websites have] pretty much the whole of the translated manga, with [this one] still going at it. I'm pretty sure I also saw a torrent for the volumes somewhere too, but apparently people love http downloads more.

[EDIT: Seeing as Bleach is licensed in the United States, please don't provide URLs for anime or manga downloads in the future. Thanks ~SSJ4 Goku ]

But yeah, bleach manga. Nothing that'll make me question my existence and sexuality, but it's pretty senseless fun with pretty pictures. I think toriyama's world still has Zombie Powder up, if anyone's interested in Kubotite's stuff.

EDIT: Oh you crazy yanks, ruining a chinaman's fun. But hey, that's what mangareactor's for, eh? Word.

Yeah, it does. Lol I havent gotten to the manga so I dont know the Shinigami pairings but I KNOW there's a lot, since I have a lot of friends like that. Tenipuri DOES have a lot more in it, but the mangaka is smart and knows how to get money =P Also it's longer so you see it more. 21 episodes in you didnt really
