YeahI think Naruto has maintained a reasonable standard for "believable" content.
Anyway it's more the way the ridiculous/stupid is presented in Bleach that is annoying than the actual content, Ichigo can't win any major fight unless he loses control to the inner hollow. Mostly because he's already reached the pinnacle of power he is able to attain. Most other series' don't have as well a defined "limit" meaning they can bust out a new level at any time and just say "yeah it was always there" (think SSJ3). Bleach on the other hand has Bankai as the pinnacle, Ichigo and the Vizard have one additional level in hollowification, but other than that there is nothing further. Which is why Bleach major fights are all carbon copy clones of each other. There seems to be a lack of overall character development.
At least with Naruto he learns some other uber awesome technique, or in One Piece, Luffy will develop some new kind of power/technique. Ichigo has had nothing but Getsuga Tenshou since he first learned Shikai. I love the series, but they need to breathe some new life into it soon.
You pretty much summed it all up. I love Bleach too and it's a shame to let the story go to trash. i really hope they'll do something with this.I think Naruto has maintained a reasonable standard for "believable" content.

I'd really hate to say this but...You know, i was thinking the other day...
What if Tite Kubo is some undiscovered genius mangaka and he has the whole Bleach story set up so that everything fits, every character is well defined and every question is answered at the end? Wouldn't that be cool? :|
As for the chapte, yeah, it was kind of lame. The whole Bio-Aizen thing is lame, Gin is lame... everything is lame in Bleach now. :|
She should be the pwn.Haven't even seen her Zanpakutou
