Bleach Movies: Difference between revisions

Since ''[[Bleach]]'' is [[Trope Overdosed|Trope Overloaded]], mostly due to its [[Loads and Loads of Characters]], the main [[Bleach/Characters|characters page]] became so large that it [[Heroic BSOD|refused]] [[Beyond the Impossible|to be edited further]]. As they say, desperate times call for desperate measures. The only realistic way of solving the problem was to split up the characters in some fashion. And thus this page was born.

 

As with any manga-based anime series, Bleach needs to pad out its anime run to give Kubo a chance to create more material for the manga though these arcs tend to pop up ''right in the middle of the main plot'' rather then be intergrated seamlessly as most animes would usually tend to do (well the Bount and Invasion arcs did, read on for more info). Interrupting it without warning (though to be fair the animation staff, through the characters, do apologize for this) so it can make viewing rather awkward. We've gotten a total of four filler arcs as a result, excluding the various standalone episodes. Kubo had a hand in designing the look for some of new filler characters to varying degrees, but he was never thoroughly involved in the writing or production.

 

For individual character tropes, see [[Bleach/Characters/Anime|Bleach Anime's character page]].

 

* [[Action Survivor]]: Ashido, who seems out-of-place since he wasn't really ''dragged'' into fighting Hollows.

* [[Beach Episode]]: Actually not a product of the animation staff, and is based on an omake Kubo wrote.

 

 

The ''Bleach'' series is well-known and popular enough to market ''four'' movies, all managed by Noriyuki Abe, director of the anime adaptation. Each movie features an original plotline, rather than being an adaptation of the manga's story, as well as original characters designed by the author himself. By contrast, the original author of most manga-to-anime series tends to have very little creative involvement for anime-based films.

 

In March 2010, [[Warner Bros]]. confirmed that it is in talks to create a [[Live Action Adaptation]] of the series. [[Broken Base|Fans aren't pleased]].

 

* [[Action Girl]]: Senna's ''first'' appearance has her mopping the floor with those Blanks.

* [[Anti-Villain]]: Shizuku wants to reunite with Rukia, but he's far less obsessive about it than Homura.
