Since its announcement two years ago, the feature film of Bleach had ignited the web and social networks. Since as usual, two camps are in opposition to this ambitious project awakening both the doubts of a commercial fiasco or that of a good surprise. We were also reluctant yet the casting was carefully thought out as well as the starting plot which focuses at first sight on the character of Ichigo and the first volumes of the manga. The film focuses on the hero's past, his discovery of an unknown world, the arrival of powerful monsters and a power that can destroy them. So we will not have any big surprises on this side, except that suddenly knowing the manga is not mandatory !

After watching the many promotional videos and observing the reactions of the Japanese public, the feature film seems to be on the right track. We are quite confident although on the reserve concerning the singer Miyavi who interprets the cold and powerful captain of the sixth division. Everything will be played out in particular on the special effects of the weapons and on the hollows which, from what we have seen, are part of the register of Tokusatsu monsters. Which is far from a bad thing since the ideas come together a bit. The soundtrack, meanwhile, is signed by the band J-Rock [Alexandros], who have already worked for video games, dramas and other live action movies!
