Intro:
This report is about the anime called ‘Bleach’ an anime is a tv serie which
is especially made for teenagers and is made in Japan.
Bleach is about the  life of Kurosaki Ichigo. Kurosaki Ichigo is a 15 year
old teenager with only one big difference: He can see ghosts/spirits. Rukia
Kuchiki, a Shinigami (Soul Reaper) is out on a mission to find an evil spirit
called a Hollow. The Hollow's target is Ichigo ( Hollows eat humans in the
human world to gain strength and for the fun ) . Rukia and Ichigo find
each other for the first time. Ichigo's family gets in danger by the
Hollow/Evil Spirit and the only way to stop it was for Rukia who was
defeated, to give her Shinigami powers to Ichigo who had a strong
spiritual force. Then the boy Ichigo gets Soul Reaper powers and defeats
the Hollow, after this more enemies/allies will be introduced and it begins
for real when they get to Soul Society ( Where the shinigami’s live ). This
anime consists of action, comedy and adventure. Shinigami’s are Human
Souls with duties and special powers. They use swords to attack their
enemies and their swords have spirits in them. These spirits are
connected with the Shinigami’s in a special way, so that they can talk and
give each other power. These swords are called Zanpaktou and these
swords have 2 different powers, they are called first Shikai and the
second Bankai.

Here are some main characters that may be helpful to know:

Kurosaki, Ichigo – Main Character

Kuchiki, Rukia – Second Main Character

Ishida, Uryu – A spiritual human much like Ichigo. He is the last of the Quincy’s
(Bowman race).
Introduction to the Gotei 13:
The Gotei 13 is the name given to the 13 Groups of the Shinigami in Soul
Society. Anyone named as a Shinigami is put into 1 of the 13 Divisions,
they are a Captain or Vice-Captain, hold a Seat, or are just a member,
they are still an important part of the Division. Each Division of the Gotei
13 has a Captain and a Vice Captain, they are generally the strongest of
the whole Division. To become a Captain, a Shinigami must first have
achived Ban-Kai( Special Power ). The Captain and Vice Captain usually are
connected in a friendship bond. To be a vice-captain of a division/group
you need to be half as strong as the captain and have the 1st power called
Shikai. A Shinigami cannot be seen in the human world by humans, they
leave Soul Society when they are going on missions to balance the Spirits
in the World. Those that can see Ghosts can not see Shinigami, but there
are exceptions and it is a very rare gift. Each Shinigami wears black robes
with white trimming and a white cloth belt. On special occassions they
wear a arm band to show their rank in their Division. The Captain of a
Division wears a White Robe with the Number of their Division in black on
the back.

The sign on the captains back with a number of the

division in it.

This is the boss of all shinigami's:

 Name: Yamamoto Genryuusai
Division: 1st
Rank: Captain
Zanpakutou info: Fire Blade

The Shinigami have three duties:

 To preform the 'Soul Burial' and send ghosts to Soul Society or
Hell. ( They do this with their sword )
 To track down hollows in the human world.
 To the souls in the shinigami/real world and the Hollow world.

Shinigami’s are people who live in Soul Society, a different dimension from
the real world where people go when they die. Shinigami’s are therefor
people who actually died on the real world and only some can become a
shinigami and get special powers when they do. Then they are chosen to
protect the Soul Society world and the world of the living. However they
don’t remember their previous life from the real world. They have the
power to go to the living world by a dimension gate which is called ‘Senkai’.
Only shinigami can do this other people who died and live in Soul Society
can not.

The enemies:
 Picture of a Hollow (monster).

In bleach there are different types of enemies, you have the Hollows for
example. Hollows are a race of creatures who are born from human souls
when people die and for some reason like Hatred and despair do not cross
over to Soul Society when they die, when they stay too long in the human
world they will turn into a hollow. They are corrupt spirits with
supernatural powers that eat the souls of both living and deceased
Humans. Hollows settle in Hueco Mundo, but can cross over to the Human
World and Soul Society. Hueco Mundo is another dimension world just like
Soul Society and the real world but much darker, it’s the place where only
Hollows live. Some Hollows eat other hollows to gain power, but most of
them only eat Humans or Shinigami’s.

the first Hollow seen in the series.

 The Bounto’s.

Another far more dangerous enemy is called the Bounto, these are a group
of humans with special abilities. These Bounto’s where created in Soul
Society in the Development and Research building and by accident gained
extraordinary powers and eternal live. These Bounto’s escaped to the real
world and have been living on human souls like vampire’s for almost four
hundred years. Each of them has a different weapon which can be used in
combat like an; Axe,Sword, Etc but their main power is that these swords
can turn into a doll creature with special powers to eliminate their
enemies. In the episode’s the shinigami’s finally noticed them because they
had eaten too much humans lately.

The corrupt Shinigami’s.

These three captains of Soul Society have betrayed Soul Society in order
to gain more power and rule over everything. Their leader is the one in the

middle and is called Sōsuke Aizen. He is the brain of the

whole operation. Their goal is to overthrow the king of Soul Society, when
that was found out by the other shinigami they escaped to Hueco
Mundo(Place of hollow) and recruited hollows to join their team and made
them stronger. They turned the hollows into arrancars: Half human half
hollow. When they finished they came back to soul society for the fight.
Opinion:

My opinion is that it is a great show for teenagers, I don’t know if it will

be fun for older people to watch as well because it contains a lot of
fantasy and most of the older people like reality tv series. Anyway I think
it’s really interesting to watch because it has a really good story line, they
explain everything very carefully so that you know what it is all about and
the emotions of the characters are easy to take over. When you watch
one episode you will surely want to watch the second and the third one as
well because they make it really interesting by making the episode end in a
battle or in the middle of a story. Also the quality of how the anime looks
is really fascinating it is one of the most beautiful anime series there is,
you can see everything very clear and in 2 or 3D.
