I haven't seen any of the Bleach anime yet.

I am an avid Bleach reader but I have not seen any of the anime yet. Where can I get it and is it better than the manga? I hope to hear from a lot of you so I can get some help. THANKS!!!

why thank you very much. Urahara Kisuke is one of my favorite characters. I dont want any manga spoilers though so ill probably end up downloading episodes that i have read in the manga. thanks again.

If you're up to date with the manga then you wont be spoilered by anything as the anime is behind the manga in release.

If you scroll down in the thread Sandal provided there are Links to Lunar and Dattebayo which will have all the episodes to download.

Up to date as in you realize there's currently 206 chapters and the Anime covers up to episode 167? About there or so. If you're purely reading the english Manga releases then it's only up to about chapter 80 something. Sorry if you already know this, but I didn't want you to accidentally get spoiler thinking there were only 80 something chapters when there's a lot more. I didn't know how many Bleach chapters there were until just recently myself. :)

Yeah, he's right, it depends on whether you've been reading the official translations (By... Viz I think?) or downloading translations by groups such as Ju-Ni and Manga7. If it's the Viz translations then I'd guess you'd be able to watch up until episode 30 or so unspoilered but if it's online you've been reading it then the anime is still a good 15 episodes worth of material behind the Manga and will likely be going on an arc of filler episodes to let the Manga get further ahead and then it'll rejoin and continue the main storyline.

I'd expect the filler arc to start somewhere after episode 62 or so, maybe as late as 64/65 since there's a fairly natural pause where fillers can go somewhere around that point in the Manga.

Ive read the manga up til anime EP 59 and I think it does it justice. I pretty much follows the manga with a few scenes here and there cut out or rearanged but all in all ...it does it justice. I would HIGHLY recommend u get caught up on the Anime as ur missing out on the cool animation.
