Holy Flying Spaghetti Monster... if you've been following Bleach as I have episode #60 drops a major BOMB!!! If you've ever wondered who the tok dalang (which in this context can be translated as the orchestrator) behind the whole save Rukia story arc is then you owe it to yourself to catch this episode NOW! Go go watch it... man... it was shocking! Think Ichimaru Gin is really evil? Well he is but are things as simple as they seem? Episode #60 explains quite a bit and you'll definitely want Episode #61 immediately... only problem is that it doesn't come out till next week. Damn.

Bleach is the best Naruto replacement there is... what with Naruto going into an endless cycle of crappy fillers. I'm sleeping through my Naruto episodes and not even bothering to rewatch the episodes I slept through. Unfortunately I'm hearing rumours that Bleach is going into the filler cycle as well... probably after this story arc is done and over with. Oh well... Bleach fillers tend to be quirky one off affairs. I do love the Don Kanonji fillers but the rumour indicates 20 plus filler episodes and well that's just distressing news :_(

But hey... don't be discouraged. Bleach is a great anime. The animation is great... the music is great and the world of the Shinmigami (Death Gods) is fascinating. Unfortunately the anime starts off really slow but picks up steam from Episode #20+ onwards and doesn't let go. Go give it a try.
