Just saw shippuuden premier.
I must say, they must have saved a fortune on production costs by putting shitty animation for the fillers. Music and animation made me feel like I was watching a movie.
The whole thing was very enjoyable. Very nice. Im going to watch this.
My only complaint is the speed they went in this episode. i mean they covered 1 1/2 chapters in 2 timeslots. Itll be interesting to see how it holds up during some of the more uninteresting points in the plot.
I must say tho, Im a bigger fan after watching that. I liked the music alot more than pre-skip's(especially the ending song, intro was meh to me)
Also, its easier to translate the language by hearing it rather than reading it, so hopefully watching this will explain some of the things lower quality scans mistranslated.
and thanks to the 2 year filler period, I hope there will be a good long time before we see any filler material in the series. (We got 3 straight arcs availible currently. Im hoping we will never see another filler again. This is also hoping kishimoto ends the series within 2-3 more arcs.)
If only Bleach were this good. V_V
