I watched Bleach for some time when I first started to get into anime. Just didn't finish. Too many episodes. Do tell me what you think though. I've watched everything up to date with subs on AoT. It's pretty damn good.
Yeah a friend from out of state got me into Bleach. I watched the first ten episodes with him, and a few after that, but once realizing how many episodes there were I saw no point in trying to watch the series.
The English dub definitely starts out different. I only watched about the first five minutes of AoT on Netflix, but I remember it starting out with a boy in a town, inside what I recall to be a shed, with what I believe to be his sister. The boy is different looking. I'm not big into Anime, so I'm not sure if video alterations are common, but I just assumed it would be audio stripped and replaced with an English one.
At first, the show didn't have me excited for the next episode. I was ready to forget about the series. I wasn't interested until about fifteen minutes in. I don't want to give anything away, but it's kind of difficult to show my interest for the series without doing so. I'll just say the beginning is kind of rough, especially if you're not into Anime. However after finishing the first episode I see the series following a similar path to Bleach, that has me interested enough to the point that I can honestly see myself following the rest of the show with English
subs on Netflix.
