Alrighty, here's Bleach for those of you who haven't read it.
WARNING! SPOILERS! WARNING!
So it all starts out with this kid named Ichigo. He has bright orange hair and he's been able to see ghosts for a very long time. His mom's dead (killed by a hollow. I'll explain what that is in a second.) so he lives with his Dad (who's a spaz and a Soul Reaper/Shinigmai. I'll explain that later too.) and his two sisters (Karin and Yuzu.) He goes to a normal school and has normal friends (Keigo, Orihime, Mizuiro, Chad, and Uryuu.) Until one day, Rukia Kuchiki (a Soul Reaper) comes crashing into his life and makes him a Soul Reaper. A Soul Reaper pretty much cleanses souls of their sins so that they can move on to the Soul Society (heaven). They have spiffy swords and spiffy power and something called Reiatsu, or spiritual presence, which is what their powers come from. So now Ichigo's a substitute Shinigami and Rukia is living in his closet since he sucked up all her spiritual powers (like a vacuum cleaner.) The next 50 chapters or so are just him meeting Uryuu (a Quincy, which is kinda like a Soul Reaper, except not. And they're German.) and meeting Uraharra (a shop keeper/ex-soul reaper. He'll be important later.) Orihime finds out she has spiritual powers (and so does Chad.) Her powers are her little hair clips which turn into fairy things. They have the power to protect her and to heal any wound with the words, "I reject!" Remember that, it's important later too.
So everything's happy and all until Byakuya Kuchiki and Renji Abarai show up to take Rukia back to the Soul Society to stand trial for her crimes (giving Ichigo powers. And yes, Byakuya is her brother.) So there's a fail fight, and Byakuya takes away Ichigo's powers. They leave, and Ichigo's butt/life is saved by Uraharra who then trains him to get his spiritual powers. That's great and all, but the thing is that now Ichigo has a hollow inside him. A hollow, by the way, is a soul which couldn't move on from its past life and has now become a mindless killing machine. So Ichigo leaves and goes off to the Soul Society to reclaim Rukia.
He pretty much fights his way through the Soul Society and he meets such lovely people as Kenpachi (a mindless killing machine himself), Yachiru (his adorable vice captain), Kyoraku (He's a lazy bum, but still a captain), Nanao (His vice captain), Soi Fon (fast, slightly evil, really awesome), Unohana (she's kinda.. bland. But she's a very good healer), Komamura (He's a giant fox. Nuff said.), Toshiro Hitsugaya (He's awesome, has a height complex, and a ice type Zanpakto (Soul Reaper sword.) I love him.), Matsumoto (Toshiro's busty vice captain), Ikakku and Yumichikia (members of Kenpachi's division), Kurotsuchi (HE'S A CREEPER!!!!!), Ukitake (Always sick, but very nice. Captain of Rukia's division.), and Yoruichi (She can change into a cat and she's Uraharra's best friend.) There are lots of fights, Ichigo gets ban-kai (which is a stronger version of his sword, Zangetsu. Yes, the swords have names and magical powers in this manga. Get used to it.) He saves Rukia BUT there is also a big revelation, also known as the reason this manga was going on in the first place. Pretty much, Captain Aizen has decided that hey, he wants to make himself a god. So he grabs the Hogyoku (a special... something or other.) and leaves with Gin and Tousen (former captain as well.) A little note: Hichigo has been making appearance trying to take over Ichigo's mind.
So, everyone goes back to Karakura (that's where they live, by the way) and they're happy until... Ulquiorra, God's gift to women kind (sorry guys, it's not Sasuke) appears with Yammi. These two are arrancars, or much more intelligent (and much stronger) hollows. They come, wreck havoc, and leave. Pretty much, Aizen's build an army of these things with teh Hogyoku (which evidently isn't awakened yet... I don't really know what that means either, sorry.) So they go back to Hueco Mundo (Tite Kubo has something for Spanish stuff. I dunno why...) which is their base and talk to Aizen. Blah, blah, talking about Ichigo, etc. The next thing you know, Grimmjow is taking down some arrancars to take out Ichigo and anyone else with reiatsu. Grimmjow is another arrancar who's slightly bi-polar (but we love him anyway). He goes, he fights Ichigo, everyone surrvives, but only because Tousen come back to retrieve Grimmjow and tell him Aizen's pissed at him for leaving. Grimmjow goes back, gets his arm cut off, and is not a very happy kitty. And now, a note about Arrancars:
Things to know about Arrancars:
1. They each have a base animal (Grimmjow's a cat, Ulquiorra's a bat/moth thing, etc.)
2. They are numbered in the order they were created, except for the Espada, or the strongest of them. Those are numbered in order of strength, 0 being strongest.
The Espada:
0/10: Yammi
1. Staark
2. Barraggan
3. Harribel
4. Ulquiorra
5. Nnoitra
6. Grimmjow
7. Zommari
8. Szayel
9. Aaroniero Arruruerie
To Be Continued...
