But back to Bleach. We wouldn't have so many characters and fights if just a few of them would die once in a while. I think that's what's really holding it back right now. It maybe wasn't such a big deal in the beginning, but if just this one thing was fixed, it may have sidestepped all the problems we are encountering. For example, if Kubo had been a little more bold in the beginning, right now we could have:
More dramatic tension
More time to focus on story elements
Fewer fights to write
More even pacing
Character development (nowai!) for surviving characters due to the deaths
Actually threatening villains
Toshiro getting killed by Aizen back in Soul Society
There's my two cents on the matter. Kill more good guys.

I must say I'm finding myself agreeing with you on many accounts. We'd certainly take the bad guys a lot more seriously if they could kill good guys. It would open up a lot of interesting plot points, too.

Yay!!!!!!!!! This is the best news all month. When will it be back exactly? I would have had HunterXHunter as the 4th best manga except they keep having those annoying hiatuses.
You know the fact we are discussing One Piece, Naruto, Fairy Tail, Jo Jo's Bizare Adventure, and HunterXHunter in the Bleach manga thread proves Bleach is as low as it can go.

IT takes all the tension out of a fight if you know a named good guy is not going to die.
Hiyori must die. And stay dead.

Fixed.
Oh, and where did I say the fights were too short? I wanted more even pacing. Some fights need to be longer, other fights don't need to happen at all, and fighting needs time to rest once in a while.

I don't think Bleach was ever beating Naruto at all. Naruto is just a better all around story and the fights actually make sense, while being perfectly paced.

For some reason I'd expected Kubo to look older. Dunno why.

For all Tite's faults he does do one thing right and that's get his readers to talk about his work.

Even if that is true, he gets us to read Bleach everytime there is a new chapter, so he must be doing something right. I believe that he is doing research on something epic that would change the world of Bleach. For example he might make Icigho dad team up with Aizen and reveal that Icigho's mom never died by a hollow but by S.S or she was a perfect Arrancar

There once was a man named Kubo Tite, who was King of the Mangaka. He had fame, power, and wealth beyond your wildest dreams. Before they fired him from Shonen Jump, these were the final words he said: "My plot is yours for the taking, but you have to find it first. I left it somewhere in Bleach." Ever since, fans from all over the World set fail for the manga, searching for the plot, the treasure that would make their dreams come true.

YO YO YAAAAA YOOOOOOO!

[SPOILER]スマソ
うーん今回はですね
憤怒でさらにヤミーが巨大化し戦闘へ
By getting angry, Yammi gets bigger and goes to fight.
後は自らアイゼン様が戦闘にたつと宣言
Then Aizen declares he'll fight himself.
それを聞いたトウセンが顔に手に当て 新しき力をアイゼン様がくださった
のだ
と仮面をつけるような仕草をした所で完です
When Tousen hears that he places his hand over his face and says this is the new power that Aizen-sama had given him. He motions like he's donning a mask and that's the end of the chapter.[/SPOILER]
KUBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Don't think these are the full spoilers though. Will update if further stuff comes in.

Oh lord, I am an evil person for even wondering this, but:
Is it wrong that I am thinking that Tousen's mask might not have eyeholes? He won't exactly need them...

So...
Spoiler\/\/\/\/\/
Yammy might actually prove to be somewhat of a threat. And Tousen will be able to see again?
End of Spoiler/\/\/\/\/\
That doesn't feel like much to look forward to. -_-
Still at least Aizen might be fighting in the next few chapters.
