News: December's Bleach: Jigoku-Hen Film Overseen by Kubo
posted on 2010-07-12 23:27 EDTThe official website of the fourth Bleach anime film has launched on Monday with the movie's title and release date: Bleach: Jigoku-hen (Bleach: Hell Chapter) on December 4. According to the website, the Jigoku-Hen subtitle signifies that the story takes place in a place unvisited by Tite Kubo's original manga, which will celebrate its 10th anniversary next year. As Eiichiro Oda did with last December's One Piece Film Strong World, Kubo is personally overseeing the production of the new Bleach film.
Sales of advance passes bundled with nine exclusive double-sided character posters will start on July 13. The Naruto Shippūden: The Lost Tower anime film will open on July 31 with a trailer for Bleach: Jigoku-hen.

For all its apparently good qualities, this just isn't a good show. It wasn't when its first half had us counting clichés to stay awake, and it isn't now, even as it nears something like a climax.
This series about middle school girls in 1925 Japan forming their own baseball team does offer some period social commentary, but that is incidental to its focus on being a light, cute, and often humorous fish-
Aside from the essential first episode, you can think of this volume as one of those throwaway Bleach movies. Same self-
Super Gals is kind of a relic from a bygone era. It had its moment in the spotlight, and even though it's still enjoyable now, it's lost some of its dazzle over the years.
The first story arc concludes and the second one begins, with an interlude chapter focusing on new character Nora in between. Although this adaptation does change up some details and offer a little new material, it is still the least of the three versions of the story.
There's no doubt that the unresolved ending and lack of actual substantial romance will leave some readers cold but there's still something to be said for a collection of cliches written well enough to work as nicely as this does.
After 25 years of evolution and revolution in the genre, this kind of popcorn entertainment doesn't quite thrill like it used to. Girls with guns gleefully blowing things up in space is clearly all that was needed to support an anime series back in the day.
It doesn't do much to set itself apart from Gainax's other formative outings: There are boobs and there are explosions and to try and make sense of it is to miss the point entirely. The only question remaining is whether its razor edge is still sharp…and that's a tricky question.
Despite being edited down to half its original length, this stretch of story, which finishes the Goku/
