One of the telltale signs of Bleach filler is that the writers include all those dreadful Scooby Huddle scenes that blighted Buffy so badly, in which the core five all kinda explicitly acknowledge each other as the core five and sit in a room shooting the Council of Elrond shit with precious fuck all going on besides exposition. Willow, Giles: hit the books. Xander: give us a ton of tired Chandler quips, maybe one of them will be funny. Buffy: walk round a graveyard, moan about your lot in life, maybe act a little pompous, maybe turn into someone ten years older in the fight sequence long shots.
Whereas Kubo only seems to acknowledge that Ichigo, Rukia, Ishida, Orihime and Chad are the core characters via the shrieking mouth of Keigo Asano, and usually only really writes exposition in sequences that do at least one other thing at the same time, ie: the Vaizard/Arrancar conversation to which it was extremely hard to pay adequate attention because NOT ONLY IS ISSHIN A CAPTAIN LEVEL SHINIGAMI, BUT HE AND URAHARA ARE TALKING LIKE OLD FRIENDS AND HE'S KNOWN EVERYTHING ALL ALONG! |
