The first comic: #788 Bleach
500 and a bit chapters in, I think I've read enough. Partway through the 'final' arc, it gets samey. Higher powered villains, more of the good guys cut down (although more actual deaths) and more powerful beings showing up. The criticisms continue to stand and while the series attempts to humanize the bad guys, their motivations aren't explored enough to turn it around.
Still, it's been a good run and the storylines were engaging. It would have been nice to have it be rebalanced, but still impressive enough. I'm looking forward to reading more manga of this type.
