BLEACH: FADE TO BLACK, I CALL YOUR NAME * (Theatrical Release USA 2008)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì

Bleach: Fade to Black, I Call Your Name—interesting Japanese anime based on the television show Bleach—has a difficult to understand introduction to its story. While the story consistently sticks to its initial theme of soul reapers who cause memory loss, be aware that this anime movie is difficult to follow. Read a plotline before you go, then sit down and enjoy the dip into the anime world. Good work for Director Noriyuki Abe.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. It’s ‘cool’ to see a variation based upon the televised version of Bleach again.
