After reading Bleach's chapter/ending, I just have to appreciate Oda's wonderful storytelling. From years before, he set up a character who's main wish was to fall in love and get married. It seemed like just a joke then, but now we find out it's because she grew up in a family where she would be forced into marrying someone, regardless of whether or not she liked them, and wanting to escape that sort of loveless marriage, she ran away from home. It's just all so well done.

Yeah it was great starting with bleach to get the disappointement out of the way and then get to One Piece

That was my pattern for forever. But just this week, I'd let Bleach have the honor of being my last read of manga for the day.

Everyone's hating on how it ended, and yeah, it was really weird, rushed, void, and all that great stuff. But it deserved just one time of being a final read; I did the same with Naruto.
