i think ichy's character is really well written, he has a naievety which makes him likeable and keeps him pushing his boundaries... simply because it does not occur to him that he cannot or should not do it.
Truthfully, until Bleach my anime exposure was limited (but i have seen AKIRA like a bazillion times, and i ran home from elementary school to watch Battle of the Planets) Bleach has opened a whole world for me... of costuming and art.
Please if you are going to watch Bleach watch it in the original with sub-titles... the english voice actors are just wrong, and i think that they simplify the content.

Indeed, without realizing it, my own exposure to anime happened while growing up in the 80's with Robotech, Transformers, Voltron, and Astroboy to name a few.
Bleach is one of the few that I've gone out of my way to watch every episode of, not since Gundam Wing have I made such an effort.
Ichigo has that really kick ass psycho-Hollow mode that makes him into a laughing maniac and even more lovable. It's always cool when the hero has some hidden mode like that, keeps things interesting because you're elft wondering, "What the frell was that!?" and, "When the hell is that happening again? It rocked!"
Also Nova, the Mod Soul is a wicked character, who else will you see zipping up his "ninja" hood when he's uncomfortable?

Astro Boy and Robotech yes! absoutly! The imagery in Bleach is phenominal, i love it.
i did some silkscreens of ichy's shirt with the hollow mask on it and i am working on a painting of sandle hat. i also want to do a painting of ichy with the hollow mask...but it scares me!
why don't i have a bleach avatar? you need to get me one cuddles.

I have found myself really enjoying this series. I've already got plans ready for a shinigami uniform.
I find myself liking most of the primary characters, while really identifing with Orihime. Poor girl is too kind and passive for her own good. I also like Uryuru for the simple reason such a small meak looking girl can kick your ass in a second. Urahara also a favorite of mine. While he very rarely takes direct action, with the exception of covering his ass in thee first arc, he is a good person who is limited on what he can do.
I do hate 12taicho however, so much I can never remeber his name. Ichimaru is impossible to trust with his facial expression. of :

I don't normal make those kinds of faces so pardon it's lack of accuracy

If interested. we can do a bleach "orginal" (non canon, just for fun) costuming thing.

Really nice stuff!
Do you have access to that silk screen machine on a regular basis?
Well if we have at least 3 people say yes, I will have our second big costume group be an orginal bleach line up!
