The better part of a decade of Bleach anime has finally drawn to a close, with its many quick-to-complain fans seemingly satisfied the series ended fittingly, and the hero’s future neatly summed up as “unemployment.”
Just how much is left in the manga is not clear, but it is thought that it may end at some point.
Rather than ponder the fate of post-Bleach shonen anime, one fan shares this most pressing concern:
“Is she nopan? She’s walking about town nopan?
If this is nopan, foreigners may misunderstand this as Japanese all being HENTAI.
It should really be made clear if she’s wearing pantsu or not.”
Barbarian viewers take note – Bleach is most assuredly not a “HENTAI” anime, and the concern of its Japanese fans about the cast’s underwear status is solely out of concern for the good name of Japan’s anime industry.
The world’s Strongest Gambler doesn’t have any shitty cliche you can think of. It’s an English book though, so I doubt any of you manga folks here have heard of it. But you will someday… someday…
yagg balls
I didn’t want bleach to end when the Manga is still going. Kind of like Initial D.
who agrees?
That is dumb. They just started another story line in the manga. There is no way they will leave it end like that. I understand ending an anime, but they are now getting a story about the soul king. Nope, just think they trying to build eps up.
If it is ey ended it, it was a stupid way to do so!!!!!
Yeah, right.
Just wait ’till they start making Bleach 2, or Bleach Kai, or Bleach whatever.
It’s definitely not the end of the series.
I don’t know why people compare Bleach to Naruto, and then belittle Naruto, sure, they overkill the fillers, but at least Naruto had an actual plot.
I started to dislike Bleach after the arc with Aizen, it just became another generic anime, stupid and pointless, at least Naruto has some form of consistancy, and they at least finished an arc before shoving fillers in it, unlike Bleach.
One minute they were fighting against Aizen’s group, then they cut it out for fillers lol
I prefer Naruto to bleach, simply because it actually has a progessing story, Bleach fucked that up from the start.
So they had a time skip, news flash, people grow up (maybe not on this site..xD) but it’s a little bit of reality thrown into fantasy.
and Japan isn’t known for Hentai -.- perverts with no gf are, go get a personality so you can prove it wrong.
Agree, Naruto isn’t exactly a masterpiece but at least you feel you are watching a story that leads somewhere. Bleach feel more like random stuff so we can see more people hitting swords.
Naruto gives you the impression that the creator thinks before writing events that will happen in the future. On the other hand Kubo seems to write whatever the hell comes to his head the last few weeks.
Rawr, we’ve all been training to fight Aizen. The end. They never did clarify what they meant by that, whether it was to fight on par or if he’s actually escaped. Even in the manga they still haven’t explainededed. -_-
I’m not really cared with bleach … but … at lasttt ….
Hopefully there will be a second anime of Bleach after the manga finishes it’s final arc. If not, then I’ll be disappointed because there are too many questions left unanswered in the anime.
Bleach ended?!
What?! I feel like everything I know and love is changing. Soon One Piece and Naruto will be ending..!
Bleach manga is still going to go on for another 10 years, according to Kubo.
So yeah, nothing ended?
awww i wanted to see ichigo pull out the mask in the end even if it was for only a limited time. new blade, new shihakusho, no mask 🙁 though he probably wouldn’t pull it out if he didn’t need it, but still.
Riruka going nopan has actually more sense than expected. It’s reasonable to assume she had no underwear change in Urahara’s Shop so instead of wearing a dirty pair she choose to go commando until reaching home.
You’d be surprised how many girls do this in similar situations (except they probably don’t wear a dress this short).
“Bleach anime ending pleases fans”
Well, two out of the three it still has anyway…
Most likely, Bleach will take a 5 Year Break like Inuyasha did, Then come back with Bleach: The Final Arc.
This assuming the Manga is done in 5 Years, but with Tite Kubo, you never know how long he will stretch it out.
If it sales, it’s a success no matter how “crap” you think it is.
In terms of success, One Piece,Naruto,Pokemon,Bleach are “better” then just about any other series.
Anime is business, if it sells, it ain’t crap
*note, I am speaking from a neutral point of view and does not watch any of the big 3 nor pokemon.
Good thing, that Ichigo says at the end “MATTA NAA”. Obvious is just vacations not a ending. Better this that shitty fillers like the one’s of narushit.
Maybe they can give shippuden better animation now.
TITE MOTHERFUCKING KUBO!!!!!!!
Thats just the offical season 1 ending….
Riruka no pan in battle
Ponders this http://img1.sankakustatic.com/wp-content/gallery/safe-misc-xii/nopan-buri.jpg
I am already missing it… ;_;
she might be wearing a G string…you never know…
Captain T-back strikes again!
So what’s going to happen to the Soul King?
Why do all Anime decide to end right now…
It’s ending because they would have had to do a year of filler. Even though most fans dislike filler a lot can tolerate six months of them but no one can stick around for one year of them.
Soul King is rocking with Luffy and his team. And he loves panties.
Whether it’s Bleach, Naruto, One Piece or whatever other manga/anime is being talked about, the amount of people who are happy it ends/wish it would end just amazes me, along with the level of their hatred.
Protip: If you don’t fucking WATCH it, it matters a shitload less. The way people complain, you’d think they were being strapped down Robot Chicken style and forced to watch every single episode. If any of you have seen more than two episodes of Bleach, and you’re now going “Whoo it’s over”, then I gotta wonder what the fuck kind of masochist you are to inflict a show on yourself that you hate.
And no, don’t give me that “it’s everywhere” or “my friend talks about it” crap. You just suck at closing your eyes or putting your headphones on to listen to something else.
If you’re celebrating THAT MUCH that Bleach is over, you’re probably mentally damaged.
Its not so much they they are happy its ending per say. (See the manga continuing) It means that the manga doesn’t need to move at a snail’s pace to keep up with an animated series.
The fillers were sometimes good but usually terrible and that drove people up a wall.
The end of the anime means that they do not have that obligation anymore to watch it in case it happens to be good or fill that time of the day to watching it.
Sure it will be missed but it will be a long time before its forgotten.
Come on now, they’re probably gonna continue with a next generation series just like how it was with shippuden. Even then, shit like this will continue with being the big 3
retards these days….guess u guys only like magical girl and gay animes…
I couldn’t really get into bleach, idk just was not my story
For all the naruto commenters, naruto: although at first was an awesome series, the plot has now gone to shit. I love naruto but I wish the plot was so much better then current
Could not agree more. Extending a series just to boost sales is a terrible idea.
It would be a lot better to take the popularity and make a new series and shift the readers to something new.
Naruto seems to have its fits of intended story and introduction of characters but most of them feel forced or artificial in the setting. Sure new villeins are needed to move a story but its not needed every new chapter to add something just for the sake of it.
bleach is that terrible it all depends on how you take in the characters while as people are bitching about how bad it is it only shows you dont understand much abut it i like bleach it certainly isnt my favorite anime but its got a good part on my anime list
now those comparing this to naruto its like comparing call of duty to WoW there both two completely different things we dnt need to compare the two there different leave it be sheesh ass munchies.
what about the Royal Guard?!
that never went anywhere!
Royal Guard, Some Bankais, Kurosaki Ichin’s past, etc, etc…
are you seriously watching this shit its clearly shown that kubo is just making shit up as he go
I still think that the perfect time to have ended it would have been at the beginning.
And nothing of value was lost!
oh great.
how bout the other two?…
Riruka is obsessed with cute, so it is safe to assume she has kitty underwear on.
Now that it is over I oughta star marathoning it.
I cried a tear there 366 episodes I saw it all
What more can I say than
It has been an honour, gentlemen.
didnt even see other’s bankai wtf
Strange the ended it when it still has a huge chunk left in the manga, it must of been gettin to expensive or too few views. The new arc is looking interesting tbh I must say, nels turns up again which made it ten times more awesome.
Uhh yeah >_> that final scene when everyone was waving at ichigo, Since when can Yuzu see spirits? Aka: ichigo.
she cant, karin tells her what direction to look
Hopefully, the Naruto anime will have an ending similar to this one when the Fourth Great Shinobi War is over.
so bleach is indeed a hentai!

Sorry. We already did…
He has a point.
Is it nopan? Seriously. Nopan or not nopan? Most series would try to answer all the questions yet others like this raises the question if it’s nopan or not. How can they just leave viewers wondering about nopan. I fear the manga will also troll us with the glimpse of nopan. Nopan or not nopan, that is the question.
“Not nopan” seems redundant for some reason.
I’ve watched bleach and read the manga since the beginning and I enjoy it. I’m disappointed that the anime is ending but I was also tired of the filler arcs. It would have been a lot better if they had taken breaks for the manga to catch up instead of having filler.
Oh, well, at least there’s a new arc in the manga to check out.
Its not going out of animated form completely. I’m sure they have some more “extreme” OVA series in planning or at least movies going to still be made to prop up popularity every now and then.
Hopefully the movie that’ll result from this early end and continuation follows a similar route as to the budget, Berserk wise.
It’d be a nice change to actually have excellent animation for a Big Three series continuation, if they do go that route. I also hope whoever wrote for the fillers gets greenlit to do something in the future; the writers for some of the filler were, at times better than the manga.
If not, though, nothing was really lost.
I get this feeling that once the final arc finishes they are going to make a movie of it thats why they finished the anime early.
My thoughts exactly.
Agreed. The final arc is right after in terms of the manga. It is most likely that they will make it into a movie.
Awesome! Next up Pokémon! ^_^
Of course she is using pants. You guys have NO imagination!
T-back strikes again!
One down, two more to go.
I don’t know about the dubbed versions, but the pokemon that’s recently airing is not that bad. It’s more or less the same formula as season one with much more fluid and exciting fights.
Pokemon Should have ended a long time ago, it’s so crappy compared to the pokemon special manga, Satoshi should commit sepukku.
who would anyone in anyway even bother with shows that’s targeted for kids in the first place?
Because a lot of the time they’re more legitimate than the horseshit aimed at Japan’s “adults”
I resemble that!
…because not all shows targetted at kids are bad, and actually many of them are quite good, barring some of the one’s this generation.
U forget Crapruto and One Shit
One shit ? you saying that srsly ?
One piece is the best long running anime currently. its true they make some pointless episodes but battles are amazing, history is captivating, really great.
Naruto i totally agree biggest piece of shit on world, fillers are terrible, and its fillers every single time, really is a turn off for everyone that was looking forward to naruto.
Isn’t the idea of a Shonen series as follows?
1. set flawed(usually mentally/socially deficient)hero in a setting that forces him to have growth.
2. Introduce a villein that defeats hero and breaks the “normal” set up at the start.
3. Have hero go on journey/train to beat villein.
4. Fight villein and have it announce a stronger adversary or “its only a minor setback”
and go back to the start.
As a side note to make it more popular set it in a school or remove bits of the female cast throughout the fight.
Just did. What now?
Yeah… Right… Every shounen = Dragon ball for you, it seems. Actually take some time to watch something before criticizing.
One Piece is just a crappy copy of Dragon Ball. Naruto is the same!
Dragon ball is the best long running anime of all times. You can’t deny this!
you forget to crap on your pants, also, remember that you have a psychology checkup on next moday.
You will be buried and dead before One Piece ends.
I may die, but I will stick around on a brains diet until the bloody thing ends, even if I have to chew through the skull of every primate on the planet.
You will be buried and dead before Berserk ends.
Fixed.
No idea about Naruto although my views on it are just a little bit negative, never really have much of a fan of it. One Piece on the other hand, wow I how it never ends, story telling and animation are good enough to make want to ask for more, long story short its “Fun” XD
Dude i LOLed so hard XD
How long did it take you to think up those names? You’re very clever.
One Piece won´t end in another 5-10 years or so, so I hope you are very annoyed and disappointed bro! :3
I think One Piece will end when its author dies. Sadly I don’t see them running out of room on the Jupiter sized water planet it takes place on.
I have been laughing for 3 minutes now.
Well, about time.
I love this: “It is thought it may end at some point.”
NO BLEACH MANGA CONTINUES FOREVA!!!!!!
Yep! Our great-great-great-great-grand kids (well, maybe not OURS…how many here even have kids?) will be telling their great-great-great-great-great-great-grand kids (I’m speculating that medicine will improve human longevity here) about how their ancient ancestors actually read Bleach when it was FIRST printed on ACTUAL paper. Just to tell them how hard our lives were way-back-when, so the kids will be able to appreciate being linked constantly to an “Artificial Reality” (considering that if they eat while focusing more attention in the “AR” than “Real Life” their bodies are still nourished) where they await each new manga release of Bleach so they can experience the story as one or more of the characters (think Star Trek TNG Holodeck without the “Holodeck”).
Of course, there’ll be those who refuse to experience past certain story arcs from the past, or those who experience the story from the beginning to the “present” story arc several times a year because they love the story so much…
Oh wow. I dropped this one like 4 years ago or something. But I just got this urge to see this episode just for that nopan scene…
Where the FUCK is Yoruichi?! DAMMIT KUBO!
she may pop up in the manga arc- nel’s already popped up which was truly brilliant to see 😛
you didnt see her in her black neko form ontop of uraharas hat did you. lol
SS arc excellent with lots of promise
bountou (sp?) arc utter crap
heco mundo arc good if it wasn’t for mass filler
aizen arc good except filler
zanpaktou arc started good then fizzled
fullbring arc meh
Finally it is over… Along with 9 other series I was watching… This spring sure will be tedious.
Now… Where is my Vagabond or Y+M animation?
I… would love a Vagabond anime. That and a Wolf Guy anime. Y+M eh? A new manga to read.
Y+M is written by the same person that made Basilisk. If you like feudal Japan and a series without too much supernatural stuff in it, I can highly recommend it.
What happens if she’s wearing a t-back? It’s just the angle to make the viewer think she’s got no pantsu on. She’s got them.
but the only anime character ive ever seen who wears a tback at times is kuroko from to aru xD it would still be out of character… a fundoshi however would fit although would be odd with a dress
It’s cool that the anime series has finally come to an end. But seriously, to be blunt, how stupid do they think people outside Japan really are!? Everyone effing knows that Bleach isn’t a Hentai anime. Just because we see Riruka seemingly not wearing underwear doesn’t mean people are going to think, especially those who watch this on the daily basis, that it’s some of Hentai or whatever. Unless that person is either dumb or ignorant. But anyway, putting that aside, the anime finally ended before the manga, damn fillers taking space but oh well, and now the anime industry can make room for more anime to make.
No Riruka is NOT No-Pantsu. She’s wearing a Thong. When I had my Avatar pic of her (with the Love gun & Doughnut) her skirt is afloat well over her thigh and on her hip you can see a tiny pink string – It’s a Thong. Riruka LIVES for ‘cute things’ and she must feel that a tiny pink thong & bra are CUTE!
This is NOT the End of “Bleach”- If you’ve read the Manga you’d know that the “1000 year blood war” (Last Arc) is well underway and they’ve already started a body count. The Enemy is the Last Group you’d ever think would emerge to take on Soul Society.
The War is basically about “The Balence of Souls” The #’s in: The World of the Living, Hueco Mundo, Hell, and Soul Society have been altered thru out the series. I expect the “Soul King” to get involved by the end and last- Where does your soul go when you die in ‘Soul Society’?? To the Soul King? Hell? World of the Living?…I have feeling this last Arc my have a “Crisis of Infinite Earths” level of EVERYONE we’ve ever seen (alive & dead) fighting once more to stop this ‘New Enemy’- it’s going to be about “Balance” and I think Orihime, Ichigo, & Aizen (and possibly Gin) are the Keys.
You’d be surprised how many idiots believe T&A = Hentai.
I kind of want to continue watching Bleach, but I just finished the SS arc and was so disappointed with the shit that follows it. Maybe I’ll skip around…
The others arcs are good, no doubt. The major problem with the bleach is, as previously stated, the filler arcs. Too much filler can kill any anime. If you can, consider skipping them.
Just ignore these r-tards just watch it all. No idea why so many are butt hurt and trash talk the shit.
Just stop watching. Soul Society is the pinnacle of the manga. The feeling you are going to get by continuing to read it is the same feeling you will have when you read Death Note past volume 6. Shock that quickly turns into disappointment due to the destruction the author brought on his own series.
Just skip the filler arcs. That’s what I did.
Also saw that last screen with Ririka or whatever the fuck her name is… thought the same thing.
Also, since I dont care to read the manga but I am curious… does she still show up in the manga at all or is that it after this whole ordeal?
It remains to be seen, but they did just bring back the two busty Arrancars.
Sure you didn’t know that name, suuuuure, wouldn’t wanna destroy your cred around here.
i fully expect Bleach to start airing at some point in the future so they can show the last arc kinda like they did with naruto>shipuden but with no soul destroying fillers
Finally… This really just wasn’t good after the soul society arc. Though that may be too soon to end for a shonen manga, it should’ve take a better step instead of just battle battle battle BLEACHED BUILDING OMG battle talk…
Really, it also messed up on the characters by not giving Rukia nearly enough screen time
Who did Ichigo end up alone?
NOPAN Ending! :3
Sooo, who does Ichigo end up with…
byakuya
Nobody. He got the normal ending.
Probably Orihime while he’s alive, and Rukia when he dies and goes to Soul Society.
Begin the time skip.
Think the same story but all the “living” characters are actually now soul reapers and they are rediscovering their powers going through the Soul Reaper training academy.
Palmela Handerson
No one. There is hardly any romance in Bleach.
It’s a shounen series. You go make something up and pretend it’s canon. That’s what all lazy shounen manga authors want you to do, anyway.
that’s why we have hentai doujin
and fanfiction
Anime rule 76: When the main character doesn’t pick the girl, he chooses the sky.
Rosy Palmer
Zangetsu and his hand.
He went to Vegas and lost his pantsu
Didn’t you know Ichigo lost his penis when Rukia cut him in the beginning?
Don’t give 2 shits, nope.
Now there just needs to be an ending to the One Piece anime now.
I feel like this site simply hates bleach… in last year or so(time Im visiting this site) there was NOTHING positive about bleach just stuff like “bleach finally ends” and the last “bleach anime pleases fans” and so on. I dont know, but… all people I know hate this “ending” and loves bleach in global, so from where this hate come from? If you play irony then Im sorry but its not obvious enough… as far as Im concern bleach is the only anime thats worth wathing and yeah Im no anime freak with real live and real living gf sorry for that 😉 as for the fillers – you dont like it, dont watch it, its that simple! 🙂 😀
ps: you will hate me for this soooo much 🙂
Kinda sad how shitty Bleach turned out to be. Kudo makes awesome characters and awesome costumes, but everything else sucked. Good luck next time, Kudo.
Yeah he should make hentai lol. I can’t get enough of the black girls he draws. So. GOD DAMN. HOT
Ow wait, Kudo is a different guy. That one’s Kubo.
Bleach was a shit anime anyway. Good thing it ended.
boob buckets
NELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL sorry manga is awesome again. lol
i wonder if the Japanese under stand that not all underwear show that far
I’m glad this shit is finally over. Next, the manga!
Japan is known worldwide for hentai. it used to be anime, but today it’s hentai.
The worldwide sales disagree with you.
sales arent living beeings and cannot agree or disagree.
So sales show what is popular by actually making money and the industry responds to it and makes more of it.
Its why the industry got lost in moe-blob hell and is currently knee deep in ecchi anime.
Don’t be so ignorant. Sales prove what sells and what doesn’t.
What I want to know is: Did Ichigo get to screw Orihime in the end?
I’m pretty sure they only ended up as friends. Bleach isn’t known for its romance.
good now we just need to get rid of Naruto and my annoying friend can finally stfu about these two shows.
I’m just waiting for Naruto to end…
As bad as Bleach has been ever since the end of the SS arc…
Naruto has just been HORRIBLE period….much worse than Bleach really.
Really? In my opinion Naruto is 1000x better than Bleach. Story and characters are a lot more deep and enjoyable.
>deep
Is this trolling?
I too think that Naruto is a thousand times better than Bleach. Bleach doesn’t even make sense half the time, at least Naruto tries but since the series is more popular then it has more haters too.
nah. both of themn are boring
NO…both are terrible.
The manga isn’t exactly what I would call solid; while in many places it jumps around, it is very much like the anime; it has good and bad parts, and Kishimoto really just focuses on a couple of characters, to his detriment.
If he, for instance, started actually characterising characters and permanently killing them off, it would start being more solid all around, aside from the art, which is really really wonky and ranges from bad to downright awful. That being said, I kind of like it more than Bleach, as it at least has the gall to kill off characters.
I still do enjoy the art in Bleach much more, though, as well as the fights. If Moto actually fixes these problems, then yeah, he’ll be leagues passed Tite.
Naruto manga is decent to good, but I wouldn’t call it solid.
7:54
Author just sucks at pacing. Also drama is over dramatic and is very focused on a select few aka just nartuo and sasuke. So much for the character development pre-time-skip
3 years worth of training = a double sized rasengan
less then 3 months naruto gains perfect sage, wind rasenshuriken, tamed the demon fox, has demon fox armour, and has managed to obtain a tiny amount of chakara from each tailed beast…
hax > 3 yrs of training.
People who say this are usually people who only watch anime and don’t put in effort to read the manga. Bleach anime and manga both sucks, but Naruto anime is widely differing, bordering on both good and bad. The manga on the other hand is solid.
Cause you don’t like mainstream shonen jump?
depends on your age, really. 14-19 is bleach, before that is naruto. As your tastes evolve, the amount of shounen you’re into should at least half. If you don’t start watching anime or whatever you actually want to watch, those age limits are delayed.
a lot of guys love anime because they want to watch kids cartoons that aren’t official kids cartoons so they feel it’s socially acceptable. However, they missed the part where you have to watch anime that’s not for kids for that to apply. Unfortunately, Naruto is 100% a kid’s cartoon.
Don’t get me wrong. If you’re older when a series starts or for whatever reason you’re watching crap while you’re in a show’s target age group, when you do see it it’s not unusual to like it despite being older than the demographic. However, if you have always been given to opportunity to watch whatever you like most (but not all) mid-teenagers would have given up on naruto because it is aimed at preteens. Have you ever watched Japanese tv? Naruto is part of saturday morning cartoons. If that’s not all-showing I don’t know what is.
With that in mind, for its age group, it was good anime. For Bleach’s, bleach was good anime too. But I suspect if you try to watch/read more demographic accurate (not just the name shounen/seinen, etc. but just more developed shounen or whatever) you might find that the jokes in Bleach/naruto were a lot more silly than you realised at the time.
I went from Pokemon to Outlaw star, Cowboy bebop and Tenchi Muyo. xD
Man I miss when the cartoon channels showed decent anime. Damn UK. LONG LIVE CNX!
But really, I don’t think age comes into it that much, everyone has their tastes. I wouldn’t say Naruto is a kiddy program, at least it wasn’t to begin with. Used to be plenty of blood and stabbing and dark themes.
Now, however, its been dumbed down a lot. Uber powerful techniques that require a few seals or none at all. Does anyone remember how long Zabuza took to use a crappy water dragon? lol.
Good = Subjective. Doesn’t exist a good or a bad anime, exist your opinion.
Good and popular are not the same, Jesus Christ. You know that a vast majority of critically acclaimed American television gets much less viewership than the more popular shows right?
Herp derp Naruto almost as popular than One Piece Huurrrrr good anime because of that
My first was Escaflowne… heh. Still I used to somewhat like Naruto.
well my first anime wasn’t naruto and i think naruto’s story was boring
Disagree on Naruto being a kid’s anime.
Bleach started off targeting an older audience and the targeted audience didn’t change throughout its run. Naruto started earlier than Bleach and targeted a younger audience but has grown like One Piece and is now targeted at an older audience.
My first anime was Naruto, liked it ever since. Although i’ve grown out of mainstream shonen, i keep enjoying these type of series.
People can’t call Naruto a bad manga series, cause next to one piece, its one of the most popular (and i say it again, MOST POPUlAR) series.
Age limits aren’t an issue anymore
Narutards: Naruto is popular == Naruto is good.
Rest of fandom: Listen to what you are saying.
I like Naruto. :/
Also, I agree the anime is a bit slow paced (especially the first few episodes of Naruto AND Naruto Shippuuden) but it’s getting better now.
>it’s getting better now
explainfather.jpg
You fail.
FINALLY THIS CRAP IS OVER!
U mad bro?
Now to hope Naruto finally ends.
Also be warned of Bleach time skipping and having a second series.
I’ll never understand idiots like you, when it comes to people wanting to see a show end. “I want this show that I don’t have to watch or even acknowledge it’s existence to end!”
