3.0 out of 5 stars Bountless May 16 2010
By E. A Solinas HALL OF FAME TOP 10 REVIEWER
According to Merriam-Webster, filler is "a substance added to a product (as to increase bulk, weight, viscosity, opacity, or strength)."

Well, it's not a precise description, but it does explain the function of anime filler: episodes not based on the manga it springs from. And "Bleach Uncut Box Set: Season 4, Part 1 - The Bount" anime begins an entire arc not based on Tite Kubo's manga, although it still manages to be pretty suspenseful, funny and action-packed.

The day after the gang's return to the living world, Orihime is suddenly sucked into a vast replica of the Hell Gate, by a doppelganger of her brother. Her kidnappers are the mysterious Ririn, Kuroudo and Noba -- and they quickly lure Ichigo, Uryu, Chad and Renji on a series of bizarre games. First it's a chase around town, then a surreal maze in the local museum. Finally, they're brought back to school, where they must uncover who the imposter among them is... or everyone will vanish.

It turns out that these three weirdos are all working for an old friend, to prepare Ichigo and Co. (plus Rukia and Renji) for a massive fight against the immortal soul-sucking Bounts. The Bounts have recently started consuming living human souls, and for some reason they are also allied with a rogue Soul Reaper named Maki Ichinose. What's more, their cruel leader Jin Kariya wants to get his hands on Uryu, for a secret plan to do... something.

Filler episodes in anime are usually pretty bad -- at the very least, they bend the characters into doing and saying odd things. For the most part, "Bleach Season 4 Part 1" avoids that tendency -- there's still plenty of weird individual powers, sword fights and bloody action, as well as duels between floating fire creatures, snakes, living waterspouts, metal spiders and little flying eyeballs with teeth. The Bounts, they have some mean powers.

But the story is hampered by an over-reliance on flashbacks (is this "Bleach" or "Lost"?), and the story sometimes slows to a crawl. The dialogue is still plenty of fun ("You guys are checking each other out!") and there's plenty of comic relief (Ichigo trying to find a toy that satisfies Ririn). And the writers spin up some intriguing backstory for the treacherous Maki Ichinose and the Bounts -- they're not very scary or imposing compared to Hollows or Aizen, but they'll do for a filler arc.

Ichigo and his amazing abs (you could grate cheese on them!) make a good return in this arc, but he seems to have lost some key brain cells -- he's a smart guy, yet he doesn't know that blowing up a fire extinguisher and leaping down an elevator shaft might not be a good idea? Still, our orange-haired hero remains a likable protagonist who emanates hardcore determination to protect his buddies.

Uryu is explored in detail, struggling with his recent loss of powers, and the knowledge that he is now a burden and a danger to his superpowered friends. And the writers do a good job with the supporting characters -- Chad, feisty Renji, strong-willed Rukia and quirky Orihime ("I remember there was tea!"). The Bounts aren't really explored much yet, but the three mod-souls are fun characters: Ririn is a rather shrill little bird-girl, Kuroudo a flamboyant bunny purse (yes, Rukia DOES love him), and Noba is a little ninja turtle who is almost as quiet as Chad.

"Bleach Uncut Box Set: Season 4, Part 1" provides a pretty solid introduction to "Bleach's" first filler arc, and despite some flaws, it's still pretty fun to watch. Just be prepared to fast-forward sometimes.

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid Bleach Offering Nov 16 2009
By Tristan A. Hayes - Published on Amazon.com

Bleach Uncut Box Set: Season 4, Part 1-The Bount features episodes starting from the end of the Season 3 of Bleach (The Rescue) which does not continue with the plotline set up at the end of that set. That is too say that people who have followed the manga, have actually passed over these made for tv episodes, and already start off with the plotline of Aizen and such events. Needless to say, depending on how you feel about Bleach and the plot, then this boxset could be a make or break deal. If you have been following the sets then you are probably committed to getting them all over the course of the next few years (episode 79, the final episode on disc, is nearly 150+ episodes behind where the series is at now in Japan). But basically if you like the anime then you probably may want to get this set as it is more episodes to the show. If you like the manga then you will probably only watch this once to see what happens, but in the back of your head crave to see the events with Aizen (which unfortunately wont happen until they finally reach Bleach Season 5 on the DVD, in the Spring).

For the DVD offering it features, the usual that the discs include in terms of extras. English and Japanese Audio, English subtitles, Production Art, Shonen Jump manga preview, sneak peek (updated now to include preview of VIZ Media's release of Naruto Shippuden, Bleach Movie 1 trailer, and Bleach Dark Souls trailer)), Clean Ending (no credits on the screen), and Behind the Scenes featuring more minor characters (well major characters in this season of Bleach, and we get to see the director again (Wendee!) We should commend them on their great job of this behind the scenes feature).

In terms of the music, this set features two openings. "Ichirin no Hana" by High and Mighty Color which continues off from the episodes of Bleach Season 3, and "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" by Beat Crusaders", both of which sound awesome. For the ending it uses, "My Pace" by SunSet Swish and "Hanabi" by Ikimonogakari. I feel that the series has excellent openings but the endings are always hit or miss.

Finally for the episodes, the set includes episodes 64 to 79.

One final thing to note about the set is that the manufacturer has chosen to now put each disc of the DVD in its own thinline DVD case and place that into a cardboard case containing all of them. I like the old style better but it is alright since each slim case features a different characters portrait. There were also no bonuses in this one like the others, that is no poster or postcards :( . The discs are blue to match the set.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bleach BS4 PT1 - Excellent as Always Sep 17 2010
By Kivanc Muslu - Published on Amazon.com

This is one of the side stories (filler) of the anime series Bleach. Though it is not in the main story, it is one of the best side stories in the series (I prefer the Zanpakutou Tales best). The bounts don't appear at the beginning: there is a part where Kisuke tests the individual powers of main characters (since they lost some of their powers when returning from Soul Society). However, that part is also funny and introduces the mod souls (which will have a lot of effect on the fight with the bounts).

Here are the episodes included with this set:
Disc 1: Episodes 64-67
Disc 2: Episodes 88-71
Disc 3: Episodes 72-75
Disc 4: Episodes 76-79

All of the disc also include the production art (which seems nice) and the last disc also includes a 'behind of scenes' which is basically an interview with the voice actors (for dubbing in English). Highly recommended for the people who love anime or the Bleach series. In addition, I don't think you can beat the price Amazon.com offers, so better buy it here!
