I just watched the recent eps of Naruto and Bleach, the only series currently running i always watch in addition to Digimon Savers (DS episodes download very slow of some reason).
The new Bleach was good, i don’t wanna say any spoilers, so i’ll just do an outline. It’s still about the Bounto, and finally Ichigo & co are started fighting them. Ichigo got the guy with the iron spider girl (Koga and Daruku), Inoue, Rukia got the girl Bounto with a strange sword+fan weapon being her doll, and Chad got the old looking one. Ichigo had a nice big battle still going but the others haven’t begun until the end of the episode. When looking for the Bounto names i found out that there’ll be a Bleach movie coming out this winter. I’ll watch it for sure. It’s good we get a cool anime movie for each winter (last time it was FMA).
The Naruto one didn’t end the fillers, on the contrary, began a new filler saga with Nano Country, nins with flower techniques and such. It’s said to last only 3-4 episodes, and if we’re lucky that’ll prove true. The team this time is Naruto+Chouji+Hinata. Strange company for sure. In this episode nothing particular happened just two minor battles, and the introduction of new characters. Hope this’ll be the last filler story, or i don’t know what’ll happen to the series…

I’ve just found two cool Bleach DVD covers at Bleach Exile:
