Filler exist because a single episode can cover months worth of chapters, and shorter to produce it then it is to draw it, for some reason.

Filler cant be escaped. --- Filler can be escaped if the source is a completed work. Original anime with no magna source tend to not have filler.


So am I alone in thinking that bleach is kinda of boring?

It has some moments but I find it terribly lacking.

I've only been complaining about it for months now.

Everything is lacking isn't? The emotional development is stunted, the production design is average, the writing is average. The sword play is mind numbingly boring. If you look at Samurai Shamploo, or Afro Samurai, or Earl Flen movies, its fencing is infantile. 

OH NOES emotionally vacant enemies?! We havent seen that before!

The hollows are almost neat. The ...vampire like things, there more like chinese chi vampires was almost clever.

The show lacks constancy which for me makes it harder to suspend my disbelief.

Some of its characters are fun, like Kenpatchi is terribly fun. I like him. Kon seems really out of place, and as does the girl who uses faries for how abilities. Thematically they feel like its fighting itself, and also when they appear they kill any tension or drama. Which is sad as you need comedy to break tension and resettle a scence so the audeince and character can relax and allow it to build up again, but it doesnt do it very well here.

How bleach deals with filler is pretty nice. It tries to give original content, instead of just adding more scenes in fight with constipation growls or extra hits.

Coincidentally, that's what I'm doing right now. Mmm, Vienna.

Torrenting The Book of Bantorra as I type this. Have very little idea what it's about, but  skimmed the wiki, and it also seems like the hot shit on 4chan at the moment. So we'll see if the first episode grabs me.

That's just because it's Halo-related. I'm sure it's perfectly decent, but I'll leave it to Wiggles for the detailed insight.

Uh well. I am a huge Halo fan. I own all three main games, halo wars, but not an xbox. Own and read all the books. Trying to get ahold of the comic.

So with that. Its okay. I'm enjoying it, its defiantly halo. Its not great. The production value is flat. There lack of depth in the drawing and details, NPC marines in the first episode all look like clones. It is clean, and sharp though. They got peeples who knew how to draw well.

Voice Actors are pretty good, the dialogue is meh but overall the writing and cinematography is pretty nice. It feels it was done on the cheap and fast, though there is some talent behind it.

I was hoping for Akira movie quality, but as Halo. Its far from that, though if you like Halo, I'd say its worth watching so far.

I know right? I have a smile similar to that any time I even think of forums.



Oh, and I saw a few episodes of Bantorra. Oh my god. These guys are not afraid to kill off Main Characters. Even interesting ones. Pretty ballsy so far.
