Not calling for perfection. Thats the thing there are other manga out there and Bleach is constantly compared to them. Being flawed is not so much the issue thats gonna happen, but thats the fault of the writer. Theres plenty of stories that dont suffer from these issues, its not like they arent fixable. The issue here is this series is coming from 2001 and hasn't really changed for the better in a consistent way. If the concept here is that Ichigo is your typical teenager today that says less of humanity in general cause his attitude is a reflection of how bad the value system and priorities have gotten. Maybe that works for Bleach and my only point is that ichigo could do more, he could actually have a purpose, beyond being a teen that just doesnt get it and just uses sheer strength to achieve his aims.
