when do bleach fillers start

[regus 5000]

i hearrd that there are some filler arcs in bleach and i dont fell like vwasting my time watching them so can anyone tell me when they start

[SonRyu]

There are little (enjoyable) ones here and there throughout the series, but the big ongoing one starts with 64 and continues into 100 so far.

[Sebbu-sama]

You should continue watching from episode 95 or 96 as then the action starts and the fillers are watchable :P And as SonRyu said the fillers start from ep 64..

[SonRyu]

From 64 Hey?Maybe your name should have been "CommentatingKid" :lol: I have faith that you'll become a real contributing memeber of the AN community soon enough though! ;)

The filler can get a bit dull at times, but the characters haven't started urinating on each other to keep the ratings going, so its still doing better than the Naruto filler.

The big difference is that Bleach is using one big story arc rather than a bunch of little arcs, which means you get a bit of a better story and better bad guys for them.

The start of the fillers with the dolls was absolutely a drag. Unbelievably dull to the point of irritating. The only one remotely powerful is Nova, the other ones have proved to be useless.

[Chef Wun]

The whole thing has had it's run and should just die now, the manga has advanced enough and they still keep putting breaks in the airing of Bleach and adding new little side stories into the filler that are going to take forever at the end to tie up.

[HitokiriShadow]

Actually, the filler looks like it could end pretty soon considering the last few episodes (though I haven't seen 101 yet). Of course, they could end the bounto filler and move onto some other filler.

And we can't know that they have enough material to animate unless we know how long the current manga arc is supposed to last and whether or not there will be room for filler between the current arc and the next one. And keep in mind that the anime can burn through chapters pretty fast. I just read volume 15 today and half of the volume made one episode of the Ishida vs. Mayuri fight.

Wow i can't believe its been so long since the fillers started, episode 64 really?, well ive been up to date with the fillers and while it did start out slow with the little dolls and stuff, right now in Soul Society its pretty much watchable, i enjoy it, not too much but i do. This filler arc has lasted longer than the 2 original arcs, so they better not move on to more filler, of course nothing is worse than Naruto, the filler started May 25th, 2005 with episode 136. We are now at November 9th, 2006 with episode 209, meaning its been a year and 5 months and the fillers are not over. How is Naruto still on the air, i would've cancelled it by now.

[quaze6]

not only is the naruto filler long, but it is sooooo boring.the bleach is much more tolerable.

[HitokiriShadow]

How is Naruto still on the air, i would've cancelled it by now.

It almost brings me to tears when I think of Rurouni Kenshin getting cancelled after only 30 episodes of filler (or varying quality) while Naruto is still going after 70+ episodes of mostly craptastic filler (I gave up after about 158).

[ThePirateKing]

If Kenshin and Inuyasha met their fate why can't Naruto, the fillers are ending but they still went on for almost 2 years, 2 YEARS, GOOD LORD. One Piece filler have not gone past 26 episodes at any given point and the Bleach fillers are at least somewhat watchable in that it has a continuing storyline.

Well, while we fansub watchers may not be liking the fillers very much, the ratings in Japan says their target audience doesn't seem to mind in the least.

[Mr. sickVisionz]

I think that in japan, they don't have the same "not manga = crap" mentallity that alot of US watchers have.

[Hara!]

Because the Japanese fans are children.

As is the case with Naruto.

[Tidusauron12]

Whoa... not all of them. I know this from personal experience. SOme of the most entraced fans, just like in the US, are grown ups. You just have to be there to see. Not Manga=Crap is BS, I don't care what country.

I don't think it's the kids that write all the yaoi/slash fictions....
