I see everyone’s comments and appreciate the feedback! From everything I’ve gotten I’m leaning towards reading the manga from the original Bleach up until this point (I’ve never read a Manga before so it’s kind of an exciting idea). Then I’ll come back to this Anime. Until then I’ll substitute another anime in this place. That reaction will be posted in the coming days! Again thanks for letting me know!
@@MusingsOfMichael most would argue that pre-TYBW the manga is better than the anime anyway (I would suggest the uncolored versions, Kubo’s shading in black and white is way more impactful.) bout the only thing you lose is the music, unfortunately Bleach has the best music in anime so it will be a loss if you read the manga
It is worth it, the only thing that the anime has over the manga is the OST (one of the best in any anime) and the animated fights. I'd recommend you to watch the fights (the important ones) once you reach those in the manga. As of TYBW arc the anime is overall superior to the manga no doubt.
Good pick! The First part of the anime has an "older" vibe of the pacing, and lots of fillers, if you're new to anime it might throw you off a bit, so reading the manga will be faster. I do recomend you listening to the OST at some point tho! Shiro Sagisu (The Composer that works in Bleach) is my favorite Composer! highly reccomend checking it out.
@@MusingsOfMichaelyou can go back and forth … but obviously watching the Og series gives a hell of a lot of context that is important but you’d enjoy it regardless top 3 all time
Go and see the og bleach fully without filter episode, it's probably like a 210 episodes (without filter) And then watch the tybw bleach because you understand anything without the og bleach and story wise too @@MusingsOfMichael
On the other hand it is bit interesting experiment. Many people didn't watch og Dragon Ball and go straight to Z. I think TYBW more dependant to og Bleach, as Bleach is bit more complex , but we didn't see anyone even try.
Bro, dont just start with the last arc of a series that has almost 250 episodes now. You won't understand anything about it. Especially when we're talking about Bleach. You won't even connect with all the characters in this arc, the worldbuilding, powersystem etc. Just start from the beginning
Bro u need to watch the OG bleach to understand the context of this show. Cus even people who have watch whole show had a hardtime comprehending bleach how much more if u dont watch the og and just jump in tybw arc.😅
i disagree because i almost dropped bleach 4 times when i was watching the original series. its not bad its wayy to long and the filler will kill you unless you use a website that tells you what exact episode is filler or not. and bleach is my favorite anime and probably top 5 manga
You basically watched episodes 367 and 368. Heck, if you like it keep watching then you could go back and watch from the beginning. But I think some purists wouldn’t like that. It’s interesting to see someone go in blind.
Yeah without the beginning of the story this is just gonna be pretty pictures and great music lol Bleach is one of those that you gotta start from the beginning, and even then you need to watch/read multiple times to get the full picture, A lot of info/ lore is dropped by people with incomplete knowledge, sketchy views and motivations, many of the themes are only told through aesthetic choices and needs to be mulled over and stitched together by the reader to get the full picture. this WAS after all written back in the days before tiktok and internet brain-rot, when writers/artists used to make stuff that was meant to linger in the brain and be contemplated as you revisited their works due to limited accessibility of new works. Now that the medium is popular most of the 'fans' only view the art once and then move on to the next, only ever forming a VERY surface level understanding of things... without having someone else explain it to them online that is lol
You gotta start from the OG Bleach . This isn't a remake . Bleach , of its time is one of the most popular shows along with One Piece and Naruto which collectively are known as the Big Three . The anime of Bleach never finished as it stopped in (I think) 2011 right before TYBW arc . The anime FINALLY came back after a decade in 2022 and now , we are able to experience Bleach with amazing quality animation . You can't understand ANYTHING if you try to watch TYBW because all the context and stuff exists in the earlier arcs . Bleach also can sometimes be a bit hard to follow because of unique world of its so you should start from the beginning . All the things you had questions about are all answered in the OG Bleach . I actually felt bad that you were SOOO focused and trying to piece things together but its impossible without the OG Bleach 😅😌
About Hollows and Arrancars. Hollows are spirits of dead people which went mad because negative emotions and turned into monstrosities. Arrancars are basically hollows, that were able to evolved into hybrids between Hollows and Shinigami. After that they lost most of their hollows traits and regained humanity (although many of them are still mad). They were able to do so in natural circumstances, although with great difficulty, but about 2 year ago they get under renegate shinigami Sosuke Aizen, which used different method in order bust their quality and quantity, and make army for war against Soul Society.
This is a continuation of the 06 show. Ichigo is a soul reaper same as the old guy. Soul reapers are located in the soul Society and the strongest are the 13 captains. That old guy was the leader of squad 1, ergo the head captain.
ooh, i'm so happy, bleach is my favorite anime! note: but yeah "Bleach (2004)" first ✊✊ 366 episodes but dw, 45% percent of them are fillers, making it actually just 203 episodes in total, then you can finally go to TYBW
Also we kinda need to speak about Shinigami powers. Shinigami have their powers distributed to 4 categories: Fighting with sword, Fighting without sword, Magic (also called Kido), and Flashstep techniques (you will see lot of people "teleporting" around. Even more so, because all race have similar technique). Most focus is on Fighting with sword, when they develop soul bond with their swords, which also develop soul on their own. And thanks to this bond they are able to awaken their sword's unique powers (pretty much each sword has different abilities), included in two forms. First one is shi kai (or also partial release). Almost all shinigami can perform this. They awaken this sword form (in which it often changes shape), can perform some special ability. And then there is second release which is called Ban Kai (complete release). Ban Kai is far more difficult to perform and is considered master technique. Currently with cca 6000 shinigami, only cca 25 is capable to do it, and that is even more than usual. Ban kais abilities are on complete different level than Shi kai, and shinigami themselves mostly treat it like weapon of mass destruction (because it often is).
Glad you enjoyed it but you’ll definitely want to watch OG Bleach first😅 This will get confused very fast without the context of the rest of the series
Hey hey, loved watching this back in the day, its been so long! Excited to see your giving it go. Oh, and my little ancient cat is named after a character from this 😊 Edit: yeah you've hopped in at the wrong spot, lots won't be explained cos they'll think you already know
Its so fun to watch people blind react to smth without context ❤ would live if u react to all of bleach Imo you should read the manga cuz the anime can have some pacing problems like one piece and naruto
It's beyond not understanding even. You are not attached to the characters, don't know who's who and why they are fighting. This is like watching Season 8 of Game of Thrones without 1-7 or LOTR 3 without watching 1 and 2. :D You really should not watch TYBW without seeing Bleach. To put into context, TYBW 1x1 is also Bleach ep 367 and so on. It's like starting a show from the 367 episode... It would ruin your experience, especially if you wanna see 1-366 later on.
don't watch TYBW before finishing the OG or reading the manga up to the relevant chapters, you've missed out on hundreds of episodes of world-building, character progression and many other relevant pieces of info
I would usually be really against something like this, people are screaming at you in the comments for a good reason, but this is kind of interesting I don't mind it
If you wanna start from the original watch at least ep1, 16-20, 24, 31, 34~44, 52, 58~62, 111, 118~125, 143, 160~165, 190~192, 211-212, 218~219, 270~272, 282-283, 293~295, 305~310, 342-346, 358~366 Then continue TYBW
I recommend reading the Bleach manga, the old anime can be boring sometimes, because of the animation, if you're going to start watching the anime, I recommend looking for a list of fillers and only watching canon eps and mixed.
You have to watch Bleach anime before continuing into the Bleach TYBW, TYBW is the last part of the manga that was left to be animated which got back to be animated in recent years. Specially this anime is not meant to be understood from starting to watch from its last arc. I've seen people who have watched whole bleach anime not being able to understand things happening in bleach TYBW.
I honestly dont think you should try and collect any sort of outside references for this; listening to you piece everything together is riveting and such a unique situation, and you collect information then relate them so well. Please keep doing what you are doing at your own pace, and I cant wait to keep watching.
From someone who has read the manga 3 times just like others her I recommend to read the manga and start watching the anime you hit tybw and skip it in the manga the reason I say this is because the arc in the anime to the manga are vary different like night and day and to all the anime is the canon version sense the anime fixes a lot of things in that arc.
Just a tip/idea if ur starting a anime reaction channel you should probably start by first doing the reactions for anime Opening which will help you gain subscribers then u can watch the starter animes like death note, jujutsu kaisen , demon slayer etc❤ Suggestion For anime reactions:- Bleach openings 1-18 Aot Openings One piece,naruto ops Jujutsu kaisen Opening 1-4
lol There is absolutely no way of starting Bleach here and having any idea whats going on. Heard Gear 5 luffy was cool. Gonna start watching one piece from there
Yoooo what?? Start from OG Bleach not Bleach TYBW cuz TYBW is the continuation of BLEACH.... It's really peak Looking forward to your Bleach journey tho😂🤝 Edit: TYBW ending scenes are important cuz they're a set up for the next episode 15:15 Hollows and Arrancars are the same, think of it like a regular cat and A lion both are within the cat family but one more evolved than the other... Arrancars are basically evolved hollows (don't think about menos,adjucas and vasto lorde for now lol)
You shouldn't watch the whole series, but read the manga. Then, instead of reading the TYBW arc, watch this season. Like.... Why would you watch the last arc of a decades long series to begin with? XD
Dude this is crazy! Did he just watch TYBW without Old BLEACH anime? 😅 ….I won’t blame him, it’s the fault of Audience for Messing up his First ever Bleach Experience, now he’s gonna put Bleach on a backburner cuz the TYBW is Worst possible way to start. The OG BLEACH is ofc necessary to enjoy Anything at all
Don't let the H8R's get you down. Keep watching TYBW, we'll have fun with your reaction that way. You're literally doing, "I've heard Attack on Titan is good. I'll start watching it." and the first episode you see is 4x01. Once upon a time I was listening to the an audio book. I was intrigued by the way the author threw you right into the middle of the action. After a bit, I realized I had my media player on shuffle play...
watch the anime bleach first. you can skip the fillers and you'll have only 200 eps to watch. the final cour of the this season will be out as soon as you catch up
I see everyone’s comments and appreciate the feedback! From everything I’ve gotten I’m leaning towards reading the manga from the original Bleach up until this point (I’ve never read a Manga before so it’s kind of an exciting idea).

please continue with these reactions having blind reactions are fun and rare!
@@MusingsOfMichael most would argue that pre-TYBW the manga is better than the anime anyway (I would suggest the uncolored versions, Kubo’s shading in black and white is way more impactful.) bout the only thing you lose is the music, unfortunately Bleach has the best music in anime so it will be a loss if you read the manga
It is worth it, the only thing that the anime has over the manga is the OST (one of the best in any anime) and the animated fights. I'd recommend you to watch the fights (the important ones) once you reach those in the manga. As of TYBW arc the anime is overall superior to the manga no doubt.
After each of the manga fights you should watch their anime versions. Fights are awesome. The designs and sounds are too
Good pick! The First part of the anime has an "older" vibe of the pacing, and lots of fillers, if you're new to anime it might throw you off a bit, so reading the manga will be faster.
I do recomend you listening to the OST at some point tho! Shiro Sagisu (The Composer that works in Bleach) is my favorite Composer! highly reccomend checking it out.
Yes, the original anime Bleach is from where you should start, TYBW is a continuation not a remake.
good to know thanks!
@@MusingsOfMichaelyou can go back and forth … but obviously watching the Og series gives a hell of a lot of context that is important but you’d enjoy it regardless top 3 all time

@@DrunkenSoulReaper no, it is the worst recommendation.
0:12 dude said he did some research on some anime for this channel.... apparently not.. lol
Wtf did he watch tybw without watching the Classic one 😂 never saw that
Bro, dont just start with the last arc of a series that has almost 250 episodes now. You won't understand anything about it. Especially when we're talking about Bleach.
You won't even connect with all the characters in this arc, the worldbuilding, powersystem etc.
Just start from the beginning
Lmao, watching bleach tybw without watching the og anime must have been so confusing.
This was an awesome reaction btw
My recommendation is to read till TYBW and then watch TYBW.
Idk bro, the second half tybw is pretty rushed.
@@HExtraordinaireIn the manga yes, that's why he said to watch in anime
@@castielrainyday8531 oh shoot, my bad. I guess I forgot how to read lol
Bro u need to watch the OG bleach to understand the context of this show. Cus even people who have watch whole show had a hardtime comprehending bleach how much more if u dont watch the og and just jump in tybw arc.😅

@killomnii watching a filler is a choice, and i choose not to watch those filler. So what do you mean by saying u disagree?
@@killomnii Bleach filler is better than some of the canon stuff in the anime be real 😭😭
@@The_BlOb give some example
@@yeonbibi191 The Arrancar Saga other than the Ulquiorra fight and the final Aizen fight is actually unbearable to watch

this is like starting naruto with shippuden lmao, bro said he did research

Guys it's fine I'm this is how we all started our first anime in the middle
Glad you enjoyed it but you’ll definitely want to watch OG Bleach first😅 This will get confused very fast without the context of the rest of the series
The original bleach anime has like 366 episodes however many of them are not canon and a filler guide will make it significantly faster to get through
That's hysterical why did you start with the last arc🤣
Hey hey, loved watching this back in the day, its been so long! Excited to see your giving it go. Oh, and my little ancient cat is named after a character from this 😊

bleach is one anime that this is a bad idea your gonna spoil it
for yourself you actually starting the ending
I would usually be really against something like this, people are screaming at you in the comments for a good reason, but this is kind of interesting I don't mind it

Just read the manga 😭🙏

this is something special that I haven't seen before in any other Bleach reaction: something different.
there are races in bleach. you mnight need to read it or do a summary to leading this point to understand characters and hollows and all that
From someone who has read the manga 3 times just like others her I recommend to read the manga and start watching the anime you hit tybw and skip it in the manga the reason I say this is because the arc in the anime to the manga are vary different like night and day and to all the anime is the canon version sense the anime fixes a lot of things in that arc.
Just a tip/idea if ur starting a anime reaction channel you should probably start by first doing the reactions for anime Opening which will help you gain subscribers then u can watch the starter animes like death note, jujutsu kaisen , demon slayer etc❤
Suggestion For anime reactions:-
Bleach openings 1-18
Aot Openings
One piece,naruto ops
Jujutsu kaisen Opening 1-4
100% you need to watch the OG Bleach...watching the show from here is borderline blasphemous to be honest lol
the 06 show is the og, this was the continuation, start with the 06. Skip all the filler for the 06 version. There is no filler in the new seasons.
Honestly, if u ever go from the beginning, read the manga it's faster and better that way
okay im here for this, wanna see your reaction without knowing bleach lore
Watch from episode 1 first. Skip the filler. Otherwise this will be a waste. It's like starting AOT at Marley.
You definitely need to watch OG BLEACH TYBW is not different show its continuation last Arc of the manga
lol There is absolutely no way of starting Bleach here and having any idea whats going on. Heard Gear 5 luffy was cool. Gonna start watching one piece from there
Yoooo what?? Start from OG Bleach not Bleach TYBW cuz TYBW is the continuation of BLEACH.... It's really peak

Brother watch the original series first because you will not enjoy or understand this arc cause it’s the final arc of the entire series 😭😭
😂start with the og

Waddup
Damn bruh..think you gotta watch the original before tybw,. Your gonna be lost at whoes who and why lol
Can try play the new bleach game next year for prequel story
Bruh , you dont know anything lol you need to start from the beginning
If you dont wanna go back and watch og bleach, at least watch some type of recap video
manga would also be a good fast read option
