This show is the epitome of a watered down series. There are 366 episodes and out of those 366 there may be only 100 episodes worth of actual story. The rest of it is pure filler. I never understood this method of writing. I get that writers need to write a certain number of episodes, but why bother wasting time with episodes that have absolutely nothing to do with the main story at all? Who cares about Ichigo going to high school? There are entire episodes that are just about his normal life. WHO CARES?!
For those of you who are planning on watching Bleach for the first time, I strongly recommend the use of an episode guide that highlights all of the filler episodes and pointless story arcs that you can skip.
