Bleach Memories of Nobody Review

a couple of few days ago i was watching some random clips of the Bount arc in Bleach when i was reminded of how terrible it really was. and it really got me thinking, so i thought why not make a series of Bleach filler reviews?? and of course to kickstart this series i'll start with the two worst (full length) fillers in all of Bleach history! first up is Bleach movie (1), Memories of Nobody. Bewar, this is going to be long
bewar this may contain spoilers
bewar the actual plot wont be explained
bewar this is just a mass of complaints....

Bleach Memories of Nobody.



this movie.... *shakes head whilst clutching bridge of thine nose* i was so disappointed in it! not as much the overall plot but more the lame characters. let me start with Senna--- OH MY DAYS!!! she is such an annoying tart i cant even explain!!!!!!!!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGGH! i go insane just trying to start somewhere with her. lets see, i like her Zanpakuto idea, the whole autumn feel is great, and if given time it could have been developed into something more bad-assery. also i think the way Senna looks is good. the big let down is her gay personality. she always tries to act really chirupy and playful and it gets really annoying. especially when Ichigo has to keep an eye on her and she starts trying to play hard to get and starts running off (not at her full speed of course because she really likes the feel of being caught). and also she has the very typical ''im not going to be a burden'' motto but ends up being the biggest darn burden anyone could ask for. its really annoying how she tries to behave independent and strong in the beginning, but as soon as Ichigo is ordered to hang on to her she suddenly becomes weak and frail and her traumatic past starts seeping into her fighting styles. and even though the thing that would helps with burdens is to just be killed on sight or save herself, she has to go and turn into the damsel in distress thats always wailing Ichigo's name, and then when he comes to save her scream ''ITS NOT SAFE, FORGET ABOUT MEEE-E-E-E-E-E!!!'', pretty counter-productive. but thats not the worst, the side of her character which really makes me want to punch the screen is her motherly side which comes into play when Kurosaki has to keep an eye on her. it seems like she's trying to be a really well-rounded kind of woman Ichi can settle down with, and in order for that to happen she has to be a nurturing mother who can bear all his children without hassle, yet at the same time still be free as a bird and able to have a little fun in spare time. and also she has to do the cliche thing of acting really uninterested and unaware yet always being mistaken for his GF and cuddling up in his bed without realizing that that isnt the thing to do when you've just met this person. the list of irritating things about her goes on and on endlessly, but thankfully she does die in the final battle. she tries to do the heroic thing by sacrificing herself, saying ''i cant imagine a world without you Ichigo, dont worry its for the best, FORGET ABOUT MEEE--E-E-E-E--E-E-E'' yet even after that she insists on clinging on to life even though it would have been easier to just die right there. but no no, she had to make Ichi's life hell for a bit longer. she clings her fat arse to him and starts whispering in his ear about how wonderful her marriage with him was and can he pleesh do a last favour of taking her to her to nonexistant parents grave. ichi does this begrudgingly. 

and since she refuses to give up and pass away until she see's the grave he lies to her and pretends her parents name is scrawled onto the tombstone even thought it clearly isnt. at long last she perishes....

or so you think. a few days later Kurosaki see's Senna stampeding down the tracks with her friends. ¬_¬ but she loses all memory of he past life so i suppose its good enough.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH *deep breath* besides Senna's incredible annoying nature the battles in the movie were actually good. the plot was same old same old, revenge and all, and all the enemy characters were really stupid. i think the only thing that made this movie worthwhile was the soul reapers play in it. i find this movie very tricky, i would watch it again but Senna's role in it would make me cringe whilst making my blood boil at the same time (not to mention id be pausing it at every interval to complain to my sister about how disgraceful each scene is). i still have so much more in my system to let out but i have to force myself to stop....
overall id award this movie 1 star (for good battles and soul reapers).    over and out!

    --- btw i do not own Bleach or Tite Kubo (xD) or Shueisha  or any of the art above.
--- i just realized i was going to start with Senna and then explore the other characters but i ended up talking about her up until the end.

  1. This reminds me of one of our very long-winded after sunrise discussions, or rather; rants. Haha!
    I agree in totally everything you said.
