Why have I not discovered the very much cracktastic Bleach musical? And by "discovered," I mean watched.
( Sample video behind cut in case it anyone accidentally clicked Play and is traumatized for life )At first, it started out okay. But that was only like the first 30 seconds of it when the credits ran and Ichigo was just standing there doing nothing.
It was really corny and I could tell right off that the actors could use a little more practice in their acting. And their singing skills? NONE. Then again, I wasn't expecting anything anyway. And Ichigo really needs a new wig. When I first saw him, I was like, "Cloud? I thought I was watching Burimyu!" And Rukia has quite a big mouth, LOL. Not!Chad is, well,
not Chad. I am very disappointed. He's
tiny! I know it's difficult to find a Japanese with Chad's build but they could give him sky-high platforms or something. Yeesh! On the other hand, Orihime is pretty cute. She's so tiny! xP Her boobs aren't big enough, though, IMO.
And Matsumoto's appears to be... non-existent?! Lol, her breasts "get in the way." Hm, yeah, I can see what a HUGE problem they'd be. (That clip has dancing and singing Zaraki. And well, just about everyone else. xD)
In this video, we have...... URAHARA SINGING THE STUPIDEST SONG EVER. I LOVE IT. It starts around 4:50.
Eh, Byakuya does not make my heart skip. He's not hot and his voice is terrible. He sounds like a middle-aged smoker. Renji's tattoos are terrible in this one, too, ROFL. I love Hitsugaya's playback of his and Hinamori's conversation around 3:30. But such a big guy saying a line like, "whether you're standing or sitting, your eye level doesn't change much" is THE weirdest thing ever. I know it's meant to be funny but it comes off as kind of retarded instead. And the Gin intro around 4:45 is HILARIOUS and a MUST WATCH. He was so serious, too. xD They should not have given Kira his eyebrows. And LMAO Ikkaku.
But where the hell is Ishida? Can someone point me to a clip of him? He DOES appear in the musical... Right?! I'm too lazy to wade through all the clips to find him. There are already plenty of things I cannot unsee. Never mind, I just Googled and found out he never appeared in any of the productions. I'm very upset by this. Ishida must be
the single-most neglected character in this series! =[
