Product Description
With the assistance of Rukia, a death god, fifteen-year-old Ichigo uses his ability to see ghosts to protect the living from soul-eating spirits.
Amazon.com
The third season of the hit fantasy-adventure Bleach marks the conclusion of the story arc that began in "The Substitute" two seasons earlier. Orange-haired, hot-tempered Ichigo Kurosaki and his friends--Chad, Orihime, Ishida, and Master Yoruichi, the talking cat--pass through the inter-dimensional portal linking Earth to the Seireitei, the stronghold of the Soul Society. Although they’ve come to rescue Rukia from execution, the arrival of the teenagers precipitates a deadly civil war within the Soul Society. Amid the growing chaos, Yoruichi reveals she was a princess in the Seireitei before she fled to Earth. When she realizes Ichigo isn't strong enough to survive the impending battles, Yoruichi spirits him away. He must be able to achieve Bankai, the ultimate power over his Zanpak-tô sword, which he learns by dueling with Zangetsu, the spirit of the sword. Despite exhaustion and the wounds he's received, Ichigo fights with grim determination. While Ichigo trains, some of the Soul Society's most formidable officers join the teenagers, including Toshiro, the child-prodigy captain, the fantastically tattooed Renji, and the spiky-haired Kenpachi. Ichigo arrives just in time to save Rukia. Drawing on the grueling training he's just completed, Ichigo fends off the clouds of murderous blades summoned by Rukia's haughty brother Byakuya. During the battle, Ichigo begins to grow a half-mask that resembles the monstrous Hollows. Horrified, he rips it away and renews his attack. But Ichigo has no time to celebrate his narrow victory: he, his friends, Rukia, and the Soul Society Captains have all been used as pawns by an unscrupulous villain. Director Noriyuke Abe once again shifts from dramatic derring-do to broad comedy as he sets the stage for the next story arc. Ichigo's time in the Seireitei made him stronger--but is he strong enough for the adventures that await him? (Rated "Teen," suitable for ages 13 and older: violence, grotesque imagery, alcohol use, risqué humor) --Charles Solomon

 Great episodes, bonus features were rather predictable September 1, 2010
Lesley Aeschliman (Enumclaw, WA)
Bleach: The Rescue Season Three box set is a five disc set that contains twenty-two episodes. The first three discs contain four episodes and bonus features, while the fourth and fifth discs contain five episodes and bonus features. When it comes to episodes on this set, my favorites were on the last disc; there were a lot of unexpected twists and turns in the plot in the last few episodes on the set. As a viewer, I found myself looking forward to where the story would go next, and what secrets would be revealed.
On the first disc, there are four extras. The first extra is "Production Art," which is twenty pages on line art of the characters that appear on the disc. The second feature is "Manga Preview," which includes three pages of advertisements for the Bleach manga, as well as other titles released by Shonen Jump. The next feature is "Clean Ending," which is a textless version of the first closing theme that appears in this box set. The final extra on the disc is labeled as "Sneak Peak," which contains trailers for Naruto and The Prince of Tennis.
The second disc has production art, which is eighteen pages of line art of the characters that appear on the disc. The "Manga Preview" and "Clean Ending" are the exact same features that appear on the first disc. The "Sneak Peeks" on this disc are trailers for Naruto the Movie 2: The Legend of the Stone of Gelel and Bleach the Movie: Memories of Nobody.
The production art on disc three is eighteen pages of line art of the characters that appear on the disc. The "Manga Preview" on this disc is four pages instead of three. The "Clean Ending" is a textless version of the second closing theme that appears in this box set. The "Sneak Peeks" on this disc are trailers for three Naruto video games and the Bleach: Dark Souls video game.
The fourth disc has production art, which is twenty-two pages of line art of the characters that appear on this disc. The "Manga Preview" and the "Clean Ending" are the exact same features that appear on disc three. The "Sneak Peeks" on this disc are trailers for Bleach the Movie: Memories of Nobody, the Bleach: Dark Souls video game, and five Naruto video games.
The first extra on the fifth disc is the "Behind the Scenes of Bleach" documentary. This feature runs for approximately eleven minutes, and includes interviews with the English dub actors for Ganju and Aizen, Female Yoruichi (who is also the Voice Director for the series), Gin, Zangetsu, Orihime and Isane, and Ichigo. The second extra is labeled as "Kon's U.S. Tour." This feature has someone dressed in a Kon suit, and is narrated by Kon. Over the course of this thirteen-minute feature, Kon is seen in New York before the premiere of the Bleach movie, at the premiere, at the Viz Media after party, at Niagara Falls, at Mt. Rushmore, in Washington, D.C., in New Orleans, at the Grand Canyon, at the St. Louis Arch, in Las Vegas, in San Francisco (at the Viz Media headquarters), and in San Diego (at Viz Media's booth at Comicon). The production art is nineteen pages of line art of the characters that appear on this disc. The "Manga Preview" and "Clean Ending" are the same as what appears on discs three and four. The "Sneak Peeks" are trailers for Naruto Shippuden, Bleach the Movie: Memories of Nobody, the Bleach: Dark Souls video game, and three Naruto video games.
While I expected the repetition of the bonus features based on what I'd seen on the first two box sets, I was still rather disappointed at how predictable the features were. I also still find myself wondering why textless versions of the opening themes weren't included; this would have at least helped minimize some of the repetition of the bonus features. Even though I was disappointed by the bonus features, I would still recommend this box set to anyone who is a fan of the Bleach anime series.
In order to write this review, my husband purchased a copy of this DVD box set as a gift for me.

This is a great box set you get all of the season three episodes and they are full of laughter and tear jerking moments and even more back story for Rukia and other Soul Reapers are relieved.
The absolute best Season of Bleach! July 9, 2010

I've been waiting two seasons to get to the fight between Ichigo and Byakuya. As usual, if you're expecting just a simple fight or two, you're going to be disappointed. This series is complex, and you really can't just jump in and watch it and catch all the subtleties of what's going on. Season three continues to give us the backstories of the Captains of the Gotei Thirteen as Ichigo struggles to learn Bankai. I love the way that Tite Kubo leaves nothing to chance and crafts distinct personalities for each and every member of the supporting cast. Odds are, there's a character that you're going to love for each type of person watching the show.
Parents:
As usual, if you abhor bloodshed, then you're going to want to skip this one. However, you will be missing out. They don't show any more than your average movie at the theater these days, and older kids will appreciate this because this cartoon doesn't assume that they're to stupid to understand complex stories. In fact, I feel that this is one of the series most endearing characteristics. It is NOT simplistic. The characters aren't always right, or perfect. They make mistakes and have flaws just like we do. The violence is not excessive, but this is a show about sword wielding Death Gods(Shinigami). If you don't want to see that kind of violence, then I might suggest something like Teen Titans as a suitable alternative.
It was an emotional roller coaster right up until the end. I've been waiting three seasons for Ichigo to rescue Rukia. I have to say that I was not disappointed in the least. I don't think fans of the show will be either.

I brought this DVD for our son. I just hope he enjoys looking at them as much as I enjoy buying them for a nice price. These DVD are very hard to get and I am glad I got them for a good price. Thank you once again.
