Devour souls with the evil Bounts in this new set for Shonen Jump’s Bleach card game! Here’s Gary’s review.

15 year-old Ichigo Kurosaki never expected to be battling immortal soul-sucking villains, but his life is full of surprises! The Bounts from the Bleach anime live forever by eating souls, and now you can battle them, or play as them, with the new Bounts set for the Bleach card game! Gary shuffled his way through this 185-card set and here's his game review!

Bounts, Souls, Dolls, Dual Cards and Animals

This new set introduces a bunch of new stuff to the Bleach card game, including the deadly Bounts and a few new things. Here's the 411 on what to look for.
  • Animals - The new animal cards are cute, cuddly and ready to kick butt.
  • Bounts - Unleash these villains as characters, or build a deck around them with their Guardian cards!
  • Dolls - Power-ups for Bounts, these let them collect more souls and unleash new powers.
  • Dual Character - The character cards have two characters on them, mixing their abilities.
  • Dual Energy - New Energy cards count as two kinds of energy at once!
  • Souls - Bounts can collect cards as souls and use them to power-up or activate abilities.
  • Souls = Crunchy, Candy-Coated Food?

    The new Bounts cards are awesome! Their ability to collect souls and use them to kick butt is fantastic and a great new way to play the game. The animal cards are fun too, giving you a bunch of new ways to combine with Kon and earlier sets. The Dual Energy cards are a must-have and the Dual Character cards are interesting too.

    Bounts Bummers

    Only Bounts get to collect souls so everybody else is missing an awesome power. There are also a bunch of super-specific cards that only work if you have another specific cards. They're like the Bankai cards from the last set and they're frustrating!

    Immortal Villains and Cuddly Critters

    This set has a good mix of new powers, big villains, goofy cards and more. It's great for new players and Bleach card game experts. Just cross your fingers that you don't end up with any of the really lame new rare cards!

    Thumbs Up:

  • Bount soul-collecting = wicked!
  • Animal cards let you unleash Kon with a ton of friends.
  • Dual Energy cards are great.
  • Dual Character cards let the heroes from the show team up.
  • Thumbs Down:

  • Super-specific cards are a pain!
  • An awesome new ability that's only for Bounts.
  • Game Rating: 4

    What's Up With This Stuffed Lion?

    • That's Rukia - she put her soul into it after Ichigo absorbed her powers.
    • It's a Hollow that wants to be good!
    • It's a temporary soul that animates Ichigo's body when he's in Shinigami form.
    • It's haunted by the spirit of Ichigo's dad!

I was looking out the window while going home once and in between the trees, RIGHT THERE, was a white face, well, he doesn't really have a face, but a white head. NOW HE'S GOING TO HAUNT ME UNTIL I DIE. SOMEONE HELP ME. I hate the game and I hate slender man. Here's some tips for the game: rule 1 for all horror games: do not *repeat* DO NOT TURN AROUND. IF YOU DO, BAM, THERE IT IS. Rule 2 for Slender: The breathing heavily means nothing, except if they breathe heavily for too long, then you slow down. So only run when you see Slender Man. Rule 3 for slender: WHY THE HECK DID YOU GO INTO HIS FOREST IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?! That's all I have. THANK YOU AND STAY AWESOME!! OMG THIS
