There’s never been a better time to be a fan of Bleach, as thanks to the well-received and high-quality adaptation of the manga’s final storyline, The Thousand-Year Blood War, the show is back in the spotlight. One of the big three Shonen Jump manga of its era in the early 2000s–alongside Naruto and One Piece–its various volumes and box sets are currently on sale and worth checking out for its excellent action and slick art.
Bleach Box Set 1 (Vol. 1-21) — $111 ($175)
Bleach Box Set 2 (Vol. 22-48) — $139 ($215)
Bleach Box Set 3 (Vol. 49-74) — $128 ($200)
Created by Tite Kubo, Bleach originally ran from 2001-2016 and told the story of Ichigo Kurosaki, a teenager who obtained strange new powers after a fortuitous run-in with Rukia Kuchiki, a Soul Reaper for Soul Society who helps maintain balance across the worlds of the living and the afterlife by exterminating malevolent spirits known as Hollows. There’s a lot more to the series than just that brief synopsis, as the series added more characters, villains, and storylines to its lore across the hundreds of chapters that were published. If you’re a fan of swords, high-energy action, and meticulously plotted conspiracies, then you’ll likely appreciate this manga series.
If you’re looking to get the entire saga, Bleach has been published in English across 74 volumes. This entire run is available in three box sets, each one carrying a full collection of several story arcs. The first box set collects volumes 1-21 of Bleach (Agent of the Shinigame and Soul Society); the second box set contains volumes 22-48 (the entire Arrancar arc); and the third box set rounds up volumes 49-74 (the Lost Agent and Thousand-year Blood War arcs).
Each volume is the same size and format, so you can easily arrange them in uniform order on your shelf. These collections also make for great gifts for anime fans, and they provide big savings when you buy chunky collections like this as compared to the individual volumes.
If you are looking for a single trade paperback, you can find them here on Amazon, or alternatively, you can build up a Bleach collection with one of the omnibus editions. These offer three volumes in one book, making for a quick and easy way to read through the storylines. Most of the omnibuses are priced at $15, but you can save a couple bucks on quite a few of them:
It’s time for another seasonal event in Animal Crossing: New Horizons! This time it’s May Day, which runs from today through May 7. If you didn’t experience it last year, May Day is an event that gives players an entire week to go on a one-time May Day Island Tour at their leisure. Like last year, this tour will take you to a special island, unlike the regular Mystery Tour islands you normally go to. It includes a special maze that you can solve for an exclusive prize. If you already did the May Day tour last year, we still recommend you do it not just to experience a completely new maze, but because it also offers an all-new reward for returning players. The latest 1.10 update offers new wrinkles to May Day and other returning events this year, so don’t pass up on experiencing them aga…
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim excelled at providing a vast array of different environments to explore. The role-playing game’s first downloadable add-on, Dawnguard, ups the ante. One of this mini-expansion’s greatest joys is its new areas. You investigate a portion of the oblivion realm, which has an otherworldly beauty, and travel through a chilly glacial retreat replete with gorgeous waterfalls and frozen lakes. You traverse suspended walkways and fight pointy-eared falmer upon them, and get swept away by rushing waters too strong to struggle against. Dawnguard is lovely and atmospheric, and traveling these new regions is a pleasure.
