Product Description

Product Description
Ichigo Kurosaki never asked for the ability to see ghosts - he was born with the gift. When his family is attacked by a Hollow, a malevolent lost soul, Ichigo becomes a Soul Reaper, dedicating his life to protecting the innocent and helping the tortured spirits themselves find peace. Find out why Tite Kubo's Bleach has become an international manga smash-hit! The race to save Rukia from the Soul Society is officially on, and Ichigo and company have come to their first roadblock, a very, very big roadblock. Jindanboc;, the monstrous, fez-sporting gatekeeper hasn't let a single soul enter the Western Gate he guards in over 300 years, and he isn't about to change his mind about it just because Ichigo's crew wants to go through either. But, in a where-the-rubber-meets-the-road kind of way, Ichigo wasn't expecting his assault on the Soul Society to be a piece of cake either. After all, that'd just be boring.

About the Author
Bleach is author Tite Kubo's second title. Kubo made his debut with Zombiepowder, a four-volume series which has not yet been translated into English.

5.0 out of 5 stars Full Of Action And Humor! Simply Unmissable!, 15 Oct 2005
By T. Hoang "cockle_picker" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Bleach without a doubt is one of the best manga's out at the very moment. It has a hit anime show in Japan and has sold millions of copies. If you are a manga fan and have not got Bleach in your collection then you are missing out. Guarantee this book will get you hooked! Why? Well Bleach is full of funny moments, action, twists, loveable characters and so much more.

Bleach is about a Soul Reaper name 'Ichigo Kurosaki' who was born with a gift that allowed him to see ghosts. His duty is to help tortured souls find peace and protect innocent people from Hollows (a lost soul).

In this volume we find our hero on the verge of rescuing Rukia (Soul Reaper who Ichigo inherited his powers from). In order for him to have a chance in rescuing Rukia he must go through intense training and if he fails he may transform into a Hollow himself! The story at this stage is very intense and will lure you into wanting to reading more and more.

4.0 out of 5 stars Into te Soul Society, 16 Jan 2009
By E. A Solinas "ea_solinas" (MD USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

It's finally time for Ichigo, Uryu, Chad, Orihime and the cat Yoruichi to leave the living world for the Soul Society.

But getting there isn't the least of their problems. Tite Kubo's "Bleach Volume 9: Fourteen Days For Conspiracy" continues our heroes' quest to rescue Rukia from a death sentence, but they run into a new set of obstacles. It's pretty evenly divided between action, slapstick and exposition, but promises to get even better.

Ichigo and Co. narrowly make it into the Soul Society, almost losing Uryu along the way. But as soon as they try to infiltrate the Seireitei -- a walled fortress where the Soul Reapers live -- the little gang is met by Jidanbo, a building-sized Gatekeeper with a fez, who has very strong opinions about manners. He also won't let them inside.

So for the first time, Ichigo gets to show off the new powers he's acquired -- but after he defeats Jidanbo, he's confronted by a deadly Captain, the snakey Gin Ichimaru. The little gang is left sealed outside the slummy Rukon District, to plan the next move of their mini-invasion. Chad also meets up with an old friend who is living nearby.

But after a nasty run-in with some punky boar-riders, Ichigo is reluctant to go see the mysterious Kukaku Shiba, who may be able to get them into the Seireitei. Unfortunately, her brother Ganju is the guy Ichigo fought the previous night -- and even if they don't rip each other apart, Kukaku's method for helping them may be a bit too much!

The ninth volume of "Bleach" kicks off an entire arc in the Soul Society, and it's mostly composed of our heroes racing around causing general mayhem. But these chapters are actually all about getting into the fortress in the first place, and finding out more about the Soul Society. Well, it's not as pleasant and peaceful as Rukia led us to believe -- in fact, it has even more weirdos than Ichigo's hometown.

As a result, the weirdos generate a lot of comedy, both physical (Ganju skidding across a street on his face, Ichigo landing with his head between his legs) and verbal ("Ichigo, huh? What a cute little name that is..." "IT'S NOT CUTE!... THERE'S NOTHING CUTE ABOUT IT!")

And as usual, Tite Kubo does a good job mingling together a hefty dose of poignancy, action, comic slapstick, and wacky characters. Lots of Ichigo fighting powerful opponents and struggling to master new skills, as well as a wall-smashing brawl with Ganju and his boar-riders. But there's also the sweet scene where Chad bonds with Yuichi the parakeet-boy, who is still searching for his mother.

This volume also introduces us to some the Shibas who seem to have some nasty history with the Soul Reapers, and Jidanbo the honorable, kindly giant. The Soul Reapers themselves don't make much of an appearance, but we do see the snakey smiling Gin Ichimaru, and a captain named Aizen who is starting to make Renji suspect that something is rotten in the state of the Soul Society.

"Bleach Volume 9: Fourteen Days for Conspiracy" is a solid little setup for the Soul Society arc, and has plenty of action, comedy and kooky characters in the meantime.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fist steps in the Soul Society, 25 Oct 2008
By T. R. Alexander (East Anglia, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The ninth volume of the Bleach manga sees Ichigo, Chad, Orihime, Uryû and Yoruichi making it into the outer limits of the Soul Society but almost immediately find that entering the Seireitei (the home of the Soul Reapers and where Rukia is being held) will be harder than they thought.

This volume of Bleach was seems to be something of a breather before they get to the action proper in the next volume. After the short but good fight at the beginning of the volume much of the rest of the volume is concerned with humour and explaining the facts of life within the Soul Society. This is a good and funny volume but it does lack some excitement after the fight against Jidanbô but I am sure the next volume will improve considerably.
