Advantages: great intro to manga!

Disadvantages: Manga isnt for everyone.

Firstly, do not be put off by manga. It is a style of comic but the term "comic" seems to have childish stereotypes to it.
Manag to me is a form of art. Ofcorse with that art you get a story and plenty of action to fuel your mind!
If you are new to manga then Bleach is the place to start. It is a mature manga make no mistake about it.
This first volume introduces you to some of the characters and ofcorse the main protagonist.
Ichigo Kurasaki! - Hes a high school kid, tall, strong and is your general hero to be honest. He likes to save people but also has a troubled past. He is easy to identify with and I quite like the guy. One more thing... He can see dead people
Rukia - Shes a shinigami ( death god) She helps ghosts pass over to the other world and also protects people from beings knows as hollows.(big ugly things) . Of corse regular humans cant see deathgods or hollows, however in an encounter with ichigo she must pass her death god powers to him when she is wounded.
It soon becomes evident that Ichigo isnt your average human. #in terms of substitute death gods, he is insanely powerful.
Thi is a great story. There are some funny moments and some sad moments. The quality of the drawings is top notch. Once you have read one...you will be addicted.

Summary: My Favourite Manga!
