no problem.
btw: i just hope kubo will end his manga in the same way he started it.
while in a normal good manga the interest-curve looks like:

in bleach it is:

In my opinion, Bleach started off really slow and only started to pick up some good pace when they arrived in Soul Society, everything before that was character introductions & backgrounds, with minor Hollow conflicts. It just only hit the fan when Byakuya and Renji arrived taking Rukia away with them, that's when the series (at least for me) became really interesting. That and there was a clear motivation for Ichigo to become stronger besides having to save souls & his friends from minor Hollows.
And 'normal good manga' ? You do realise Bleach is a shonen series, which in every way is marketed at a very young audience. Most of that audience doesn't really analyse or go into detail about the series' plot anyhow. So expecting anything that exceeds the mind of a 14 year old is a no-no.
A lot of people on this forum (including you & myself) do analyse and try to go into detail about the subtle hints that are left here and there, but we're all overdoing it, which is what makes it fun.
Over-analyzing = fun, as long as we don't go and take our theories too serious

in the end it's still a manga for kids.
