Authored by Tite Kubo,The Anime Bleach: As Seen on TV Articles Bleach is an animation and comic series trendy in Japan and overseas. Although it began out as merely a manga series (serialized in the Weekly Shonen Jump manga publication from Shueisha), its popularity was so amazing that it was decided to make a television show.

The anime revolves around 15 year old Ichigo Kurosaki, a teenager who may seem simply plain if not for the fact that he can see apparitions. This ability threatens to warp his fate when, one night, a woman named Rukia Kuchiki appears in his bedroom. She is meant to be invisible to a normal person, so Kuchiki is amazed that Kurosaki can see her. When a malevolent spirit, also referred to as a "Hollow," makes itself known in the same neighborhood, Kuchiki is massively wounded in trying to guard the teenager from it. In order to aid Ichigo defend himself from the spirit, she tries to give him some of her powers, but ends up giving him all of it by accident. As a result, Rukia must stay with Ichigo until her skills reload, but there is still other evil Hollows to catch, and so Kurosaki must take charge.

 Bleach has been in production for more than nine years, creating over 40 comic issues and over 200 tv episodes. And that is not all there is also many films, video games, and CDs under its belt as well. There is no doubt in the minds of anyone that Bleach definitely has a certain charisma, and unless viewers significantly wavers, it is likely to be present for a long while.
