And? People like Bleach for different reasons. Its not irrational to not find appeal in something when it lacks the things that attracted the person in the first place. Yes, the shinigami came on later but so did many fans as well. This debate is becoming no more than a unnecessary battle of "I'm a true fan and you are not" nonsense that can push people away. Every series has its lolworthy fans, its up to you whether or not their displays get to you or not. I am not just gonna adopt Ichigo as one of my favs because he is the main character, he is in my opinion monotone in some regards but what character in bleach doesn't have that element? If I were judging Bleach as a series only by its main character(Ichigo), I would of stopped reading long ago. Its other parts of the series that attract me to it and keep me going on but that does not make me any more "irrational" than those who are in attracted/committed to the series because of Ichigo himself.
