Game Synopsis
«©NCS»
Developed with the supervision of Bleach creator
Noriaki (Tite) Kubo, Bleach: Hanatareshi Yabou is
an RPG where Ichigo Kurosaki, Rukia Kuchiki, Uryu
Ishida, and other cohorts engage in town
exploration as well as Hollow slashing. The game
features an original story based within the world
of Bleach and the voice actors from the animation
provide the spoken dialogue in the adventure. To
provide fan service, Sony modeled the combat
sequences after the dynamic fighting action in the
television show. In addition to solo attacks by
the likes of Ichigo and Uryu, two warriors may
collaborate to pull off combination attacks to
impact massive damage on Hollows. Special
individual attacks are also available for a varied
repertoire from which the heroes battle their
enemies.
The game begins in Ichigo's non-interactive bedroom where he's
already dressed in a crisp shirt and slacks.
There's a guitar and a skateboard leaning against
his bureau but neither may be picked up and used.
Exit to the left and rush down the stairs to greet
your sisters. Soon afterwards, Rukia manifests
herself at the doorway and says, "ohayo gozaimasu"
with a curtsy to start the day right. Poppy bursts
in on the scene and Ichigo decides to leave for
school with Rukia in tow...

NCS Game Notes
» The intro to the game starts with a swirling
grey sky above a rocky outpost of some sort while
the Bleach theme song plays. Heroes and hollow
villains appear in animated cut sequences that are
edited for microsecond view bites. Watch as the Shinigami slash, dash, and swing their swords
against the Hollows and their commanders.
» In the title screen, a swirling blue sky centered
by the hazy sun appears behind an imposing tower
while the bright orange Bleach logo appears on the
top of the screen.
» The dialogue in the game is accompanied by vocals
as played by the actors from the animated series.
» Upon starting the game, the narrated introduction
recounts the roles of Ichigo and Rukia in the world.
The intro begins with a view of the moon which fills
up the entirety of the screen and introduces Rukia
and the jobs of Shinigami.
» The title screen selection upon pressing START are
NEW GAME / LOAD GAME / SPECIAL. If you click on the
SPECIAL option, you'll eventually reach a screen
which shows two locked features - Radio Kon and
another which shows a microphone lit up by a
spotlight on top of a stage. Looks like some sort of
emcee gig about to start.
» L-analog controls movement and "O" serves as the
action button. To view status, items, accessories
and other information, press the TRIANGLE button to
bring up a new screen.
» After leaving the house, the camera changes to an
overhead view of the neighborhood as the two embark
on their adventure. A map on the lower right portion
of the screen keeps tabs on your location as
represented by a blue arrow. The target is the
Yellow Orb. Once you reach the orb, X literally
marks the spot and an exorcism of sorts is performed
on a shaky individual with an excitable voice actor
hamming it up for the producer. Next, run to the
second Yellow Orb that appears on the map and you'll
find the indomitable KON wriggling against a post
and crying a river of tears. Free him and a third
member joins your party. After saving Kon, Rukia
receives a call on her cellphone and it's about time
to go.
» Before leaving, run down to the map (third column
and second row from the bottom) and you'll find an
individual who needs exorcising. You'll also want to
explore each street thoroughly to look for coins on
the pavement. Some aren't exactly easy to see but if
you scan the area, you'll eventually catch their
shiny sparkle.
» At this point in the game, its possible to leave
South Karakura by going to the perimeter of the map
and exiting (go to the yellow arrows). There's one
possible destination - West Karakura. Once there, a
red orb is your destination but before you go,
explore the town and pick up the sparkling pieces of
loose change on the street.
» The polygon depiction of Rukia shows her in a
microskirt with black stockings that nearly reach up
to her knees and a crisp white shirt.
» Ichigo runs around modern day Japan with a huge
sword slung to his back and traditional garb of
feudal Japan and yet no one bats an eye...
