Bleach manga has ended

I blame the editors

The Dark Souls game is alright but I was never into fighters. Nice beginning video though with jap heavy metal

I think the best game would be Bleach: The 3rd Phantom. That one is a great game if you want a lot of content in the form of new dialogue, story retelling, and bankais. It plays like Final Fantasy tactics but essentially is almost like rock-paper-scissors, but that just determines how much dmg you do in a regular head-on fight if you don't use kido or specials. I really liked the story where you play as one of 2 twins and how they insert and bend them into the lore and then change it.

Only other game I could recommend is Soul Resurreccion on the PS3. It's pretty alright but the story is just the Hueco Mundo arc ending with the Aizen arc. Really short, but it has a lot of challenges and the gameplay is alright for a third person hack-and-slash

It is annoying though that for most characters you don't have a regular form -> bankai. When you power up it's just bankai -> glowing aura. The variety and immersion would of been appreciated.

Embed overrode my attachments

Either Kubo had wanted to do something with her somewhere but the editors told him to get on with it (I'd swear there's some official, if non-canon art of her wearing a shihaksho or whatever those robes were called), or he kept forgetting about her aside from the occasional times Ichigo was back in town (I'm not sure I consider that Kurakuraiser omake canon). For a childhood friend character, she sure didn't get much in the way of action, let alone being in the core group.

I still remember her punching Ichigo into a window after he refused to tell her anything that had been going on.

It's called lack of talent

...

not him, but

it's another one of those shit teen series that outstays its welcome by 10 million chapters

or am I wrong and is the bookshelf worth of padding this series has actually worth reading/watching

No it is not worth reading, if you know about this series then you likely have seen all that is worth seeing. The anime does have some nice OSTs, and some of the female characters are pretty hot though

never gonna watch the anime after dumping it some part into the soul society arc. can you do us a favour and just link the OSTS?
And what the fuck do you guys MEAN Ichigo and Rukia didn't hook up? That's straight up bullshit

The only alluring thing about this show are the swords/zanpakuto and their special powers, but the fight scenes are so short and few and far between that it's criminal. The lore could of been good but it's boring just like the Le Ichigo Sidekicks since apparently nothing important happens pre-Aizen.
