Bleach always caught up to the Manga which is why they had to make lots of filler. After season 16 they decided to end the series bc nothing new was there to make episodes about. This reboot is a continuation of the story, you can see it as Season 17, and it’s the best anime I have ever seen. Every Bleach fan who had to wait 10 years for the final arc to be animated gets a beautifully animated masterpiece. There is so much attention to detail in every aspect, it’s just incredible. They couldn’t have made a better continuation, tho I said that after the last cour as well and now they made the animation even better looking.
So if you watched all of Bleach when it first aired or if you wanna start the series from the beginning now you won’t regret it.
Not the person you were replying to but wanted to thank you for explaining “season 17.” Do you know or can you recommend a guide to which seasons of Bleach people should watch to avoid the filler while still understanding the arc? I’m interested in watching the reboot but I haven’t seen anything past a handful of seasons.
I always recommend this guide. Be sure to watch the mixed episodes too bc they link up the stories again and sometimes contain great scenes too.
At some point there are two “filler” episodes which were made for the 10th anniversary, they are counted as canon bc of special manga chapters but are not important to the story, just a heads up.
Some filler is actually good but it disrupts the story so hard it’s incredibly annoying lol

It looks like this may be a good guide.
