BLEACH VOL 1-EPISODE 2-2 STARS

Okay, this is a boring episode, but its on the DVD, so I have to review it. First, I give 3 stars to Orihime for being crazy as hell, and I give Chad 3 stars for being fine as hell. Oh yeah, and then there’s Ichigo, and Rukia, but whatever. Anyway, the scene opens with Ichigo’s dad attacking him, man, what is that guy’s problem? You know, you got to feel bad for Ichigo, c’mon, put yourself in his shoes for a minute. Let’s say you had a hard day at work, or school, and you come home, lay on the bed for a little bit just to relax. Then all the sudden, your retarded mom/dad comes in, and tries to pound you into oblivion, as a joke.

Keep in mind that I’m not talking about a pesky little sister, or irritating younger brother, but a parent, your mother or father acting like this. And then as an excuse for what they’ve just done, they might say ”Hey there kid, I’m just doing this to make sure you stay on your toes, and won’t get caught off guard by some mugger or mad rapist.” Now does that make any sense to you? Well, let’s just be glad we don’t have Ichigo’s problems, but we have the luxury of making fun of his family situation, so everybody point at Ichigo and laugh, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!

Now Ichigo’s house is destroyed because of the hollow troubles back in episode 1, but no one remembers what happened. His family assumes that a truck smashed into their house, and dad doesn’t seem to be upset by this at all. Well, its nice to know that retarded dad is keeping up with his homeowner’s insurance, because the last thing we need is for Ichigo to go homeless, then they might end the series, or he may have to take up room and board in the soul society, which really wouldn’t be a bad idea.

Whatever, next scene, now we meet some new characters. First there’s Orihime, the funny bimbo who can’t cook, and there’s Tatsuki who nobody cares about. And, we must introduce sexy Chad, now I’ve been trying to get Chad’s seven digits for the longest, but no one will give it to me. My friends call me a cradle robber, but that’s pure crap, I mean look at the guy. Does Chad really look 15 to you? I’m telling you right now, he’s not a kid, he’s just a poser at that high school so that he won’t be lonely. I’m telling you, Chad is a grown man, listen to his voice! Look at how huge he is! And those biceps, and…………………………..

Oh sorry, I was daydreaming again, anyway, Rukia shows up at Ichigo’s school unexpectedly, and demands that Ichigo perform the duties of a soul reaper, since he now has the power of one. Ichigo is like, “No way!”, so Rukia smacks him out of his body, and now he’s in spirit form. Now if you are a Bleach Newbie, and you don’t know what in the hell I’m talking about, I’ll find a link for you to click on so you can see what I’m talking about. Now that Ichigo is in spirit form, he can now see wonderful things, like hollows running around trying to kill people and other spirits. Don’t you just envy him?

Anyway, lets skip around a bit and focus on Orihime’s dead brother, Soto who’s going to be the star in the next episode. Let me tell you a little about Soto, so that I don’t have to tell you later. Soto died awhile back in a car crash. leaving Orihime all alone (parents ran off), but she continually prayed for his soul. As time went on, she prayed less, and less, now Soto’s spirit is all pissed off, and because of these bad feelings he’s harboring, hollows are now lining up to take over his spirit, and they finally succeed.

In other words, Soto is now a hollow, and he’s coming back in the next episode to do some major damage, but before that, he decides to pop in on Ichigo to see how he’s doing. Well, not quite, actually, he tries to take Ichigo’s head off, but Ichigo’s not going down so easily. Part of the hollow mask falls off, and Ichigo can see that it’s Soto, so now he faces a real dilemma. Is he going to kill Soto, or not? Tune in next time for Ichigo, and the Hopeless!

Oh wait, before I go, make sure you watch this episode to the very end, and you’ll get a chance to see Orihime wig out in the middle of a conversation, I’m telling you, she’s hilarious!
