Bleach Wiki:Featured Picture

'''See a scene you think was just amazing? Take a screenshot and post it here for everyone to see! The winning picture will be featured on the homepage of the wiki all next month!'''

The deadline is June 29, 2010. Any unsigned vote will be REMOVED before vote counting.

Rules for Adding Pictures
Take a picture of a recent anime episode or recent manga chapter and upload it on the sidebar. Before you do, the picture MUST be substantially different from other ones posted here. We don't need seven pictures that are within the same ten seconds of an episode with just minor differences in each. Identical or similar pictures will be deleted, and all votes for that picture will be moved to the first picture of that scene posted.

The picture must be free of errors, such as having a mouse on the screen, and must have completed and valid and  templates affixed to it or it will be removed. Pictures of the manga should be limited to one panel, though more may be permitted if it is too difficult to crop out other panels, which will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Fan pictures are not allowed, including fan colorings of manga scans.

Post the picture like so: Then, make a separate headline under the appropriate header for each individual picture you have. For example, if you have a picture of Yammy shooting a Bala blast, then you could make a header like so: ===Yammy Riyalgo: Bala Blast===

The picture must have been featured in a chapter or anime episode (either a new Japanese episode or newly dubbed English episode) released this month.

Posting pictures before the release of the new chapter or episode in English is in violation of the Spoiler Policy. DON'T DO IT!

Votes
How to vote:

It's pretty easy to vote, you just have to add either of the following in the category bearing the picture of your choice.:

Adding a picture is not enough to count as a vote - you must also specifically list a comment supporting the picture. You are not required to vote for the picture you uploaded.

Only one "Support" vote vote per user.

The "Oppose" vote is to be used only to highlight issues with a candidate.

See Bleach Wiki:Voting for more rules and guidelines.

Tensa Zangetsu: Revealed



 * 1)  This is a turning moment for Bleach as we see another side and more of Zangetsu. Ichigo is facing his biggest battle yet and this is the start of it. On top that,, he looks awesomely cool! --Tensa Zabimaru 09:10, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2)  I love this and how it's a brand new character, it's been so long since we had a new character brought into the Manga and this guy will be a great obstacle for Ichigo defeating Aizen!! I love how he looks like a young Byakuya that had been trailed through a bush backwards!! SunXia 18:28, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3)  What can I say, I'm weak for this kind of pictures. Clean, beautiful, amazing drawing and amazing character design. And the turning that this presents to the story is huge. The revelation of a new character, and the first one we've seen in ages! This is the kind of picture that makes your stomach go upside down. It's beautiful to look at and it's very significant to the story, which is what every featured picture should be. -- Lia Schiffer   (Talk)  21:26, June 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4)  I'd like to change my vote to this pic, if it's not too late. I just like it a lot more and it shows a new character in Bleach (sorta). + Isshin'll probably win the article and I like to spread the joy.  WD   Talk to me  04:44, June 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5)  Tensa Zangetsu. The newest character introduced into Bleach, and he gave one heck of a first impression. The story just opened up like how it did when Isshin arrived. He's got a kind of Ulquiorra-ish look but with a lot more purpose and poise. The drawing, as I've been noticing in the recent chapters, is really good and the expressions portrayed really well. I also like the ambiguity of his allegiances. He does not wish to teach Ichigo the final GT and yet he's not arguing over anything else. He was willing enough to hepl Ichigo out of his 'breathing' dilemma too. BlazeUchiha  (Talk)  15:42, June 29, 2010 (UTC)

Ichigo & Isshin:Protect Karakura Town



 * 1)  One of Bleach Defining Moments/Dad declaring to Ichigo they need to protect Karakura Town--Soulreaper1234 19:08, June 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2)  I give my vote to this pic as it is such a great moment in the story, i think it really captures the climaxing action of the arc--God  (Pray)  01:26, June 17, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3)  I put my vote to this picture as it is one of the turning moments in Bleach this month, and the moment I believe to have the best image, a decent close-up of Isshin supporting Ichigo emotionally while the latter holds up his father physically. Prophet of Sanghelios 10:52, June 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * 1)  Despite illustrating a touching moment, I don't believe that this picture's artistic quality qualifies it as a featured picture. Almost a quarter of it is taken up by an empty speech bubble, and asides from that, a lot of space is left empty. It holds a lot of meaning, but it just doesn't look "pretty" enough.

Aizen destroys the Kōtotsu



 * 1)  Well i put this one up so i need to state my reasons. This shows Aizens stegnth and that he is beyond any power known in the Bleach universe shown so far.Wolfwood  (Shoot)  10:03, June 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2)  I have a few reasons to want this picture featured. 1. It's pretty cool - even if its a little busy, 2. It has Gin in it - he's a little obscured but he's still there, 3. Adam has identified that we have all been calling it the wrong thing by referring to it as the "janitor". So I want it featured and referred to it by its proper name of Koutotsu.  Tinni   (Talk)  06:31, June 14, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3)  This picture contains an absurd amount of detail, illustrating the destruction of the Koutotsu. Despite this, it is easy to see exactly what is going on, a testament to the picture's clean quality. Symbolically, this picture represents the fact that Aizen has surpassed the realm of reason, just as he said himself, and has obtained a power beyond anybody's comprehension. Mohrpheus 03:56, June 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * 1)  I can't believe I am opposing anything with Aizen in it but this picture is just too confusing to be featured. It is too hard to tell what is going on in here and I don't think it is worthy of being featured--God  (Pray)  21:04, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2)  It is an awesome part in the story when the name is actually revealed and this awesome destructive power but...without a caption are we able to tell what's going on?? SunXia 17:56, June 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3)  I try to vote for images that portray huge events or significant plot twists. If I can't find one, I vote for an eyecandy image, at least I'll get to look at something pretty for a month. This image is neither.  WD   Talk to me  14:08, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) There's way too much going on in this picture, one can hardly tell what's happening with all the noise lines and mess and destruction there. It's not friendly to the eye and it doesn't show a really important moment in the story. Just Aizen showing off how powerful he is, nothing new. There is really not the feeling of significance in the picture. And the figures of both Aizen and Gin are too tiny to even make them out from that mess. -- Lia Schiffer  (Talk)  06:59, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

Tensa Zangetsu: Revealed

 * 1)  First of all,he's awesome!Besides this,he represents Ichigo's greatest power,his Bankai.He must be one of the Ichigo's strongest opponents and one of the greatest obstacles he might ever face,especially in defeating Aizen.Also,he holds the secret to the "Final Getsuga",which might be the key in defeating Aizen.

 * 1)  This picture is one of the best I've seen an manga style. It's clean and simple, yet it shows Tensa Zangetsu's possible motives and perspective. I think it would be interesting how the anime would recreate this image, in its own way. [ToraShihouin (talk)]
