Bleach Viz Media DVDs

[Ryuzokai]

Okay, I have a question. This is probably in the wrong spot, so sorry about that. I was wondering if the Viz Media DVDs that are currently in America for Bleach; are uncut? I'm on episode 121 on my computer, but I don't own any Bleach merchandise which kind of sucks so I was thinking to buy it. Although, if it's not uncut and theres no immense amounts of blood and swearing, then I probably won't buy it.

The bleach for North America would be the only current Bleach dub. Yes it is uncut as Viz has it a rating of 13+ which allows for the little occasional blood shed, now the japanese anime has censored alot of wounds from the manga so Viz doesn't need to modify anymore than it already is. They are sold in Volumes of $15-20.

Here are the so far DVD release dates:
(each volume is 100 minutes or 4 episodes)

Bleach (DVD 1) 2006-11-29
Bleach (DVD 2) 2007-01-30
Bleach (DVD 3) 2007-03-27
Bleach (DVD 4) 2007-05-29
Bleach (DVD 5) 2007-07-31

Thanks a lot for the information. :)
I might as well buy them then, to boost up my amount of Bleach merchandise.
I would obviously watch them in Japanese with the subs, but I just figured out theres no swearing in it. =(

You could always just wait for September or November when YTV begins its new bleach season and the first season boxset is out for sale(much cheaper than seperate volumes)and likely to contain bonus material, like VA interviews(even if you're not into that it's still more material).

Well that's what I'm planning to do anyway..

[Ryuzokai]

Well, will the boxsets have the original footage back from the Japanese anime? If not it's okay, but it would be a nice addtion. I just don't like how Viz is making it to American, with such things as VA Interviews most likely with the American VAs and not the Japanese Seiyus.

I just dvd-r record the Viz episodes off of adult swim. :Domo

THIS IS THE WRONG PLACE!!

THIS IS CAKETOWN!!

TONIGHT YOU DINE IN HECK!

That said, this really is the wrong place, belongs in the Dub section (as it has to do with the North American Bleach and not with the Japanese releases), so it will be moved there now :).

The 4th volume of bleach will be on the shelves on may 7th this year in Canada at bestbuy.

That is YTV's call, if they begin their new season late fall then the box set falls into next year, of course if they speed it up into right after summer then it's out before christmas!

Speaking of the DVD's, I'd just like to say I rented vol. 1 out and wasn't real thrilled with the quality of them, the video has a slight blurriness to it.

Found them and a lot more DVD covers on this page (http://www.bleachproject.com/index.php?page=informacoes/dvds).

I see some great raw material for avatars and sigs.

Edit: Wow is my face red, I just realized these are not the box set covers but the single disc U.S. release covers. Oh, well. They're so large its a good find anyway.

[nx6]

All I can find it seems is the outer box sleeve for 1-4. Amazon has a decent enlarged image. But not the individual volumes.

[kensei]

Wow good find!!

What I was looking for :D

[nx6]

Actually they aren't exactly the Viz release covers either becuase the Viz ones use the actual Bleach logo on them (look them up on Amazon). But the images are the same.

[kensei]

yeah i meant the images, and that's perfect :D

[peacmaker]

I find out on animeondvd.com that first Bleach Box Set is coming out later this year, the set will cost $99.98 and run 448 mintues.

[darc_aqua]

Viz is a bit expensive but its still worth it though

[April_San]

only thing changed in dub is the dubbing itself.they change some of the lines is all..and other things..but the dubbing is close to the subs so no worries
