QUINCY VS. SOUL REAPER
Uryu, the last Quincy, has challenged Ichigo to a Hollow hunting contest to prove which is superior, a Hollow killing Quincy OR a Hollow purifying Soul Reaper. He has used bait to draw Hollows to the city but he doesn't reckon on HUNDREDS showing up! What's worse is that there's a Evangelion size super Hollow called Menos Grande that rips open the very sky itself. How can Ichigo and Uryu possibly battle against such power whilst battling the smaller Hollows that could harm innocent people? The answer: Some of Ichigo's friends begin to awaken their own Hollow battling spiritual powers as they find their lives and the lives of their loved ones in danger.
It was at this point in the manga version of Bleach that I just couldn't go on any more because I just thought that all of Ichigo's friends developing supernatural powers was just a little too convenient. On top of that, some of the powers themselves were pretty dumb, especially Orihime's too cute gang of Tinkerbell battle...
A great series
Bleach is a anime/manga (cartoon/book series) about a 15 year old boy named Ishigo (meaning Strawberry). He is a normal kid, except he can see the spirits of the dead. This story focuses on his ataining the powers of a being called a Soul Reaper so that he can fight against these monstrous creatures called Hollows (the spirits of the dead who do not pass on and become soul-eating monsters). It is now showing on Adult Swim and is a very popular series. I highly suggest it for anyone looking for something new. It has comedy, drama, great action scenes, and memorable characters.
Go Orihime
Picking up exactly where it left off, this volume gives the audience absolutely no time to rest between stories. While a couple of the smaller side stories such as Kon attempting to run away ended up just being silly filler, the rest of this volume has great action and a great sequence of events to carry us into what has started as a very interesting new story.
