I feel like this anime should be boken up into different seasons or story arcs. The rating I gave if is for the animes original story arc.

The first story arc (the Soul Society Story Arc) was the greatest anime experience of my entire life. The story is exciting, and envokes every emotion in the the viewer. The chracters are very well done and diverse. I found myself picking a new favorite character every few episodes! Bleach even has an awesome soundtrack! This portion of Bleach gets a 10 out of 10 hands down.

Everything after the Soul Society Story Arc ... doesn't even compare. The filler is as bad, if not worse than the Naruto filler, and is very hard to get through. Within the filler there is the: Bount Story Arc, and then just a bunch of misselaneous eppisodes that are not connected in any way. The Bount Story Arc is not very good, and the miscelaneous filler that follows is unbearable. I would honestly rate this portion of the anime a 2 out of 10.

The Espada Story Arc follows the filler, and is pretty good, however still does not impact you the way the first story arc did. It is very worth watching though, since there are some good battles and a variety of interesting new characters. The new characters are harder to identify with than the characters from the earlier story arc, However it is always fun to watch the anime's main characters continue to grow. All in all I would rate this portion of the anime about a 7.5 out of 10.

After the Espada Story Arc, the anime moves into more filler, and after about 3 episodes I gave up on it.

The important thing to take from this is that episodes aprox. 12 to 62 are amazing, and I would recomend everyone watch from episode 1 to 62. Hope this review is helpful :)
