My daughter loves this series of books. Came quickly too.

I like it

Despite his size and brute strength, Chad has been bested by 8th Squad Captain Kyoraku. When his lieutenant, Nanao, arrives with an important message concerning the death of Captain Aizen of 5th Squad, she offers to finish Chad off, as probably the Ryoka are the cause of his death. But Shunsui tells her no, they can’t be sure of that, and wants him taken to the 4th Squad instead, for healing. Shunsui sighs. “Things are getting complicated.”Meanwhile, Ichigo is battling Kenpachi Zaraki, who is one scary and fierce dude, which makes Zaraki’s lieutenant, Yachiru, happy because it makes Kenny happy. Ichigo becomes cocky, which translates to careless, and is run through by Zaraki’s sword, to the captain’s disappointment. Bleeding and dismayed, Ichigo recognizes Zangetsu, his zanpaku-tô, who questions him: “Do you want to win or do you want to live?”Meanwhile, Ganju and Hanataro have reached Rukia’s cell, prepared to liberate her. But there is a slight wrinkle in their plan as Ganju realizes who she is. Will he still rescue her, or will he try to kill her himself?The action continued in this volume of Bleach. I love how relentless Ichigo is, how determined and sometimes headstrong and brash. Well, he is a teenager after all, and probably imbued with the same spirit of seeming immortality that so many teens are because they can’t conceive of maybe dying. Ichigo is loyal to a fault and will do anything for his friends, but he doesn’t always think before he acts. I love his interactions with Zangetsu. The old man is usually good at instilling a modicum of good sense into Ichigo, as well as strength.I loved seeing the back story between Kenachi and Yachiru. At first I found her annoying but she’s grown on me. There is a lot of back story in Bleach, which I enjoy. The problem with Ganju and Rukia sets up a question of principle, but I suspect there is more to that story than meets the eye, and probably a flashback to go with.The ending contains a good cliffhanger, looking forward to the next volume to see what happens!

In this, the thirteenth volume of Bleach, almost the entirety of it is focused on Ichigo's continuing fight with 11th Company Captain Kenpachi (Kenny) Zaraki... it is, for lack of better terms, near epic... and the battle swings both ways several times as we gain insight and clarity into their motives and their relationships with their respective Zanpakuto swords.Meanwhile, elsewhere in the soul society, word is traveling down the ranks of the various companies concering the apparent murder of Captain Aizen... not to mention that Ganju is closing in on Rukia's location, but is someone waiting to prevent them?The art is as crisp as usual and the story flows as per normal, so if you're familiar with the volume spanning fights of series like Bleach, you'll not be disappointed. My only beef (storywise) is that Orihime and Uryu are MIA in this book, after a fatefull meeting was foreshadowed in the last volume.Ah, well. Pick it up, as Bleach, Vol.13 is a decent read in the continuing series.

This is a thrilling comic full of suspense and action. It is about Ichigo Kurasaki trying to make his way to save Rukia Kuchiki. Instead he stopped by the 11th division captian Zaraki Kenpachi. Both with immense reiastu (spritual power) it is a fight to the death. Kenpachi has never had so much fun, fighting an opponent as strong, maybe stronger than he is! As for Ichigo, he does not want to waste his time, he needs to save Rukia!Instead of spoiling the book how about you read it? It is one of my favorite books and I highly recommend this book. Enjoy!

Not much to review. It is a good quality product and the content is up to everyone to judge. Good manga. Great story. Good artwork. support the mangaka!
