Bleach 20th Anniversary Edition, Vol. 1 (Volume 1)

I bought this for my son’s birthday as he is a big Bleach fan. He was really pleased to add this edition to his collection. Great manga.

Volume came bent that’s all I can say really, the rest of it is fine i guess. Good series will be buying more

So as a fan of Bleach I was happy to hear they were releasing a 20th anniversary edition of volume 1. Upon reading it I was disappointed that they have only just put a fantastic new cover on the manga and nothing else, there isn't even any colour pages inside.Story wise this is a great start to an amazing and sometimes complex story about a boy who can see ghosts and stumbles upon the world of Soul Reapers (shikigami's) when he meets Rukia, after taking all of her powers Ichigo fights to protect his family and friends from the evil Hollows.This is your typical shonen manga with flashy fight scenes an nonchalant protagonist who gets stronger each fight.In volume one we are introduced to Ichigo, his family and friends; if you are new to the manga it's a good intro to the world of Bleach the story moves at a good pace but doesn't overload you with terminology and world building.Ichigo, Rukia, Chad and Orihime are all likeable, each character adds to the story in this first volume. Highly recommended series that is a all rounder, balance humour and action. I love Tite Kubo's artwork and it gets better with every volume.4 stars due to it not having any additional content.

I'm not the biggest manga reader, but when Bleach was airing back in the day it was my favourite out of the big three, So when I randomly found this up for pre-order I had to get it.It came well packaged and had no signs of damageThis now lives in my limited collection of manga next to my copy of 'Burn the Witch, Vol. 1' on my bookshelf.

Excellent.

A nice collectible cover for the anniversary.
