Okay, I have been roaming around town for shoes for a bit so I have had time to think about this before I make this statement. I have seen a lot of anime series and this is going to be hard to say. Here it is: Bleach is one of the best anime series I have ever seen, and may be the best ever of any genre. Bar none. I am only 13 episodes in (a full seasons worth) and unless something really jacked up happens and they jump the shark, this series is awesome.
I know people are going to toss out names like Naruto, Full Metal Alchemist and Escaflowne but this out does them. Now while I have seen Naruto and FMA via fansubs (before the Cartoon Network editing) I will admit they are great series (albeit overrated, I SAID IT) they both have flaws. Naruto is dragging after about 50 episodes while FMA is hit or miss (I am REALLY digging it now after episode 46) and Escaflowne tried too hard to overtake Evangelion, becoming really cliche at the end and needing a movie to tie ends up that really didn't work. I would put this up there with the best like Evangelion, Lupin, Kimagure, Cowboy Bebop and even (gasp) any Gundam series. Give it a watch, you wont be disappointed.
Now with that being said, can I just say that Brokeback Mountain getting Oscar nods is not the end of the world? Gay characters getting awards is not a bad thing. However, Heath Ledger and Jake Gylden-whatever getting nominated while Samuel L. Jackson and Johnny Depp have no awards is a damn travesty. They both truly suck ass, and no gay cowboy movie is going to change that. Now 'Crash' and 'Munich' both DESERVED nominations. Although Crash has Ludacris (all scientific theories show that rappers plus movies equals goatshit, but I was pleasantly surprised) and Munich was about as long as a FLIGHT TO THE COUNTRY, they were still both well acted and thought provoking films. I have not seen Brokeback Mountain and don't plan on it, so I know you are asking how I can say a movie sucks when I haven't seen it. Well, I didn't need to see 'Passion of Christ' to know it sucked, but I did see it and it DID suck. I'm using the same theory here, and seeing as how im sure that the story of two cowboys in love isn't as funny as the story of Christ. Okay, that was jacked. Still, it IS ironic that Jesus died on his passion, which was being a carpenter. And he died on planks. Im sorry, but that is irony for your ASS. Take a joke, Jesus can. See for yourself:

Um....Aren't you an oil baby, Mr. Bush? First you want to get rid of abortion, now you are talking out of the side of your ass. I'm all for abortions, and I'm all for oil. I just thought of something REALLY bad, but I will leave it alone. Even I wont go that far. I'll just say oil and abortions for everyone!
Enough with politics and stuff. How about the Bleach opening for season 2?

First a very sad note. Coretta Scott King, wife of Dr. martin Luther King Jr. passed away after reported after effects of a stroke and heart attack in 2005. Very few times do I take time out to acknowledge passings like this, I usually leave these alone and let the families mourn even during high profile ones like this. However, I must send condolences to the King family. Maya Angelou said it best:
"It's bleak because I can't..many of us can't hear her sweet voice but it's great because she did live, and she was ours. I mean African-Americans and white Americans and Asians, Spanish-speaking, she belonged to us and that's a great thing."
She worked very hard to keep the vision of Dr. King alive. We have no idea how hard it must have been to do that, especially after his death and having to lead this alone in an era where many peopldidn'tnt appreciate the efforts and the previous struggle. Due to this, I will post something else later. May she rest in peace.
