Hating fillers got nothing to do with the manga, I haven't read it, Its just that everytime theres fillers, the series gets poorly animated, the story sux, the characters begin to loose their power for some reason, naruto is totally retarded and Ichigo also sux (hey, he beat Rukia's brother and now he got owned by Ganji , u know the water elements) and it turns more and more into a childrens series!!!

No offence... but do you like the fillers... or are you so in love with bleach that you just want to love everything... I think I've seen this before... were people just watch it and argue just for the hell of it... I'm a manga reader ... and no I don't like the fillers because I like to know what happens next ... I don't like the fillers because they're going the road Naruto went ... and before the Naruto fillers I never read manga ... You are correct... normal viewers shouldn't be able to tell if it's filler or not... in fact... normal viewers(non-forum and non-manga readers... and especially the non Japanese viewers) don't even know that things like fillers exist... How should I put it... the first couple of episodes in the Naruto fillers were quite good... then they went BAD... bleach seems to follow... the first filler episodes were quite good... and the quality is getting narutoish IMO ... I presume you don't read manga so I'll tell you... the reason why manga readers hate fillers is because the ep start out as separate stories (good thing) then they try to tie them to the manga story (bad thing) then they start using character development from previous episodes (really bad thing)... and now comes the really bad thing... they use parts of the manga story... isn't the purpose of the fillers to postpone the development that happens in the manga... what's the point of using parts of it... are they trying to make scenes in future non-filler ep look like they're filler ... P.S. You've been arguing with people in the previews pages that the fillers are part of the original story... Just out of curiosity... how is that a good thing ... how is that even a reason ... mind expanding a bit on the idea ...

And IMO again, I didn't notice any drop in quality yet. Maybe because I'm not as picky as you guys, but I know that I'm not ignorant in any way that'd make me avoid important things like that. Some ppl even go as far as to say that there's something wrong with one who likes any kind of filler. I hope that you don't agree with that too...

Let's see now.

The obvious reason why the anime fillers uses portions of the manga story is one : coherence, essential for good storytelling. To you it's a horrible attempt to make the filler story stick to the manga. As for me, I don't read the manga, I couldn't care less. If the manga version of a specific occurence was presented here to be better than the one used by the anime, I'd agree that they should have sticked to the original concept. If however 1) the manga event was lame and the anime adopted it as is, or 2) the anime event was presented better than the manga, I'd cheer for good use of originality. Now, since it'd be lame to forget the whole SS arc and Aizen and make a completely detached story (some anime do that, but that's more lame than DB), most people would choose to use parts of the next story section to help the original story in terms of coherence. Damn, I'd have done that, too. If production says they need fillers to let the manga progress before resuming, fillers are a necessary evil, unless we follow the approach of dividing the anime into seasons and give a break between seasons. Well, someone thought he could make more money with a filler arc. The good part is that it's not Naruto and that the manga creator designed the filler characters. The bad-for-you-good-for-me is that apparently they use portions of the manga story to tie the anime together. Other than that, yes, the animation seems to have suffered, from a bit to quite a bit (a particular Rukia face comes to mind), although I believe it's improving right now. I still believe though that the main problem with many manga (and some non-manga) readers is this : "Filler=bad". Maybe we should make a poll about that Edit: a signifant word was lost due to editing Noticed from a quote below.

Well, they did modify part of the manga...and removed some bits... modified others (like for example Ichigo tennis-hollow training... just after he became a shinigami... or did I miss it in the anime ) Actually I like anime that have totally different stories from the manga (HiME, Otome)... but the thing is... IMO the ones that followed the manga should stick to the manga... As I see it now the fillers didn't make Bleach bad... they made Blech a normal... and that is bad... Quote:
Also... some of the moves are a little shallow... and the stupid oh so obvious hints are just too stupid... I don't know about other people but if there's a secret to something or to some boss in the anime that can defeat him... I rather not know it... just makes other characters look stupid for not figuring it out... like for example the water bosses ... and to make it worse they had to go... "What just happened ?" Ichigo,Rukia, and co - "Uhh... Uhh... ... I have no idea... " Quote:
Your point is interesting... I personally found the bleach fillers top notch, at first... When they started using Rukia... I got that sinking feeling... Quote:
If the anime can make the manga better I'll cheer for the anime... but right now I'd say the manga is leading... as in anime = Good... manga=Excellent If I were to judge by animation cuality then the anime would be Avarage... since they didn't properly animate some things... *points to Captain SnowFlakes Ban Kai* ... FYI I'm more interested in the story... Quote:

But since the fillers are mediocre at best, then when including manga material, don't u ruin the original story that could have been, and which would most likely have been very good!
Thats just plain stupid in IMO!! fillers are just to make money or somethin' while waiting for the manga to develop, so there can be more anime episodes!! Cause from what i've heard most people only get mad at the companies for doing fillers so it must be cause they can make money on it otherwise they would just have made another season! |

You can't make money by creating a mutilated story So obviously, the best move is to use portions of a successful (apparently) story and tie the pieces together. You have that, or a Bleach version of the quest for the ultimate sandwich or something. Or some idiotic flashback filler that is somehow always boring. Or they could make a "Fumoffu" type filler, but I doubt they could keep the comedy value high for a long filler arc.
So, the filler strategy they use is probably the best, although they should have just closed the arc, have a break and resume with second season later at some point. As it is, it's much more interesting than your average filler arc, so they're not half-bad. The only complain I have is that the animation is pretty inconsistent (ranges from good to bad, even in the same episode), and seems really bad at some points (remembers Rukia's face again ).

I stopped watching Bleach when the Bound eps started
Tbh the fillers aren't interesting... It may be because I know something good comes next by reading the manga but I doubt it , the fillers are boring.

____________..::::..____________ You can also loose the fans... is that really beneficial Quote:
Actually all they have to do is throw in some school comedy and they can easily make a 13 ep filler... then if they want more then just make some little episodes of Karins school activity... 7 ep easy... then just make some doctor episodes 6 should be a solid number... and you have yourself a 26 ep arc fumoffu style... it's easier since they can steel from all the school shows out there... and not to mention... make the transition back to manga story seem like going into the fire...
I know the quality would probably the same as now... but a comedy arc would have been better... since you can make a great show with stupidity... making the characters stupid doesn't mean a thing... whether its intentional or not... it just classifies as comedy in one form or another... That and there's no need for fights to take place (more time for the animators to sit back and make the characters look good)... and like in fumoffu... even if they go all cheesy and stupid with plot development it can still (actually it has a better chance) to end up a winner... (oh and it might be better to skip any Bwa ha ha ha crap...) Quote:
I wathched fumoffu... and I don't know if it was filler or not... but it had stuff in it that only a 12 year old could concoct... and I loved it... is it really that hard to just use the stupid cartoon jokes and other idiotic crap that usually works... I usually judge the animation for the entire episode... don't really think of it in little pieces... anyway... as far as I'm concern the animation was excellent in the first 26 episodes or so... then it started slipping in the SS arc... and now goes from SS arc quality to BAD quality...

The OPs and EDs aren't from the manga and everyone likes them(well, most of them). I can't see how much different that is besides that the theme songs were never technically part of continuity to begin with.

What do you mean... what do you think people have been babbling about in the previous pages... the fillers are getting worse because they are starting to disrupt the next arc (the normal manga arc)... basically it just makes you sad when you think about half of the stupid stuff they are doing...

I actually stand very firmly with Thewanderer on this one. Seriously guys, you cannot expect them to just stop making the anime until the manga gets further ahead. What better way to pass time than to create a new arc that LEADS INTO the next manga arc? That's all this is doing. setting up the problems to be faced soon through a new enemy, but not really changing key story points. Like in EP 80, there was a scene with the Afro Guy (manga readers know who i'm talking about). It was a short, humorous bit, where he was shown quickly, and THAT WAS IT. nobody met him, no one dealt with him, so nothing has been altered. Also, Kubo Tite made the characters, what makes people (2 specifically in this thread, but i dont know exactly who) think that he WASNT involved in the story, or that the animators DONT have his art to follow? How else would they follow his vision? Plus, it's nice to see a bit of humor back in this series. |
