Jim Jam has been Bishie as fuck for far longer than it was beefy.
It's on the list of things worth traveling back in time for.
"FOTNS knockoff art is timeless!" Don't chase that early 90's Bishie train!!!

Is it bad to like both, at least the current art style has...some what realistic body proportions. Dio's gains are inhuman in some panels.
I wouldn't be proud of stealing
Jonathan's wimpy Bishie body.

Seriously though, Bleach should've remained like early Bleach. Keep the series focused on the weirdos Ichigo knew at school, and make it an episodic series based on fighting ghosts and keeping secret that someone lives in his closet.
Play up the mystery aspect too, and make Soul Society out as a villainous shadowy group trying to kidnap Rukia. Do something with the whole Quincy mystery, too.
It was all perfectly set up to make a long-running fun shounen series, Kubo was insane for throwing it all away.

I thought this was always pretty obvious. Aizen had
gotten all of the other soul reapers under the sway of his Kyouka Suigetsu by gathering them all together and showing them the sword's false initial release, which served as the hypnotizing act. That made everyone think his sword was a water-type attack rather than the complete hypnosis that it actually was. This happened way before the series storyline even began and I believe was explained immediately after he first revealed his true evil nature by attacking Hitsugaya. Logically Ichigo would not have been present for that event that occurred way in the past, and we never once saw what that supposed original release of Kyouka Suigetsu looked like, so we know he never showed it to him during the context of the series. So it would stand to reason that Ichigo would not be under Aizen's hypnosis like everyone else.
Soul Society while great and the best arc fucked the series in the long term

Huge chunks of it didn't really hold up when I went to revisit it. I like the wild experimentation and presentation of the Dark Tournament for example, but stuff like Genkai's tournament, the Four Saint Beast arc, and the final arc was whatever. Chapter Black was decent but ended poorly.
The thing is, with the portrayal of Aizen's character, it's kind of hard to swallow that he never thought about it. It would've been a lot easier to believe, and work a lot better story-wise, if it was foreshadowed beforehand.
Kubo probably never realized it either until he thought up the twist.

Really? I haven't watched it in years, so maybe it doesn't hold up.
Since when were you under impression that he didn't
YYH:
I love the very early bits before the tower. Then I like the pre dank tournament. The dank tournament is good but not great because it takes too long. I like the early bits of Chapter Black but the ending is really weak. The arc after it is pointless.
The final chapter/anime episode is great.

I kinda thought the whole thing was set up rather plainly why Ichigo was going to be the only one who would be able to fight him. It's like Luffy being naturally immune to Enel's powers.
It's one of the few things about Bleach that feels like it was actually planned.

Some of the earlier stuff isn't the show at it's best but I'm pretty much fine with everything Rescue Yukina and beyond. Final arc is a rushed mess though. I like the Hiei's backstory parts, but that's all I can pretty much remember from it, it's been awhile.
SS in general works out really nice and neatly. No glaring holes anywhere besides maybe Gin's motivation in all of this, but even that is explained fairly well later on.
If it was, Kubo fumbled the execution real badly.
...though yeah, if Aizen was supposed to have been fought at the end of Soul Society instead of way later, it would've been fine.

I still can't get over the big reveal from Yammy that "Espadas aren't ranked 10-1, but from 9-0" and it all amounting to fuck all.
that was No. 5 Noitra

Yammy got bodied off-screen, so it was literally a plot twist for the sake of having one.
Yep Kubo
seriously? wow

Remember how Kenpachi killed Unohana for no reason to get a power he never really used?
God the final arc of Bleach is full of so much bullshit.

Why am I envisioning you as the Super Kami Guru
Remember how Unohana is not only their best medic but also their strongest soldier in war against the hax quincy but
Yup.

I actually really like the Genkai's tournament but I do agree with the Four Beast arc, felt very generic imo.
