Welcome to Strawberry-Shinigami.com!
This is a site dedicated to the wonderful manga and anime that is Bleach.
Why strawberry-shinigami.com?
Glad you asked, although if you're familiar with Bleach then you probably already know the answer. Ichigo, the main character's, name can mean "strawberry" in Japanese (but it doesn't, it uses different kanji, changing the meaning) although sometimes his friends do refer to him as "Strawberry," and shinigami are death gods/soul reapers. Also it's a play on the name of the first volume of the manga, Strawberry and the Soul Reapers (Shinigami).
Some notes from Clodia:
--Hello all! I'm so glad that you're visiting my website! I really hope that you enjoy it!
--Keep in mind that there are a lot of spoilers here, as I try to remain as current with the manga and anime as possible.
--I hope this doesn't confuse anyone, but the navigation bar for the site is the word BLEACH at the top of the page, just roll your cursor over it to see where the letters lead.
--I also wanted to address the fact here that things are not always consistent on this site. By that I mean that I might use different terms to refer to the same thing. ie. Shinigami/Death God/Soul Reaper. I understand it can be confusing and I'm trying to use the Japanese terms when possible, but if I'm getting information from VIZ translations or other scanlations, I use the terms that they use. Since I don't know Japanese I rely on translations, scanlations, and fansubs for my information.
--Many thanks to all of the people who do scanlations at manga-rain and M7, almost all of my manga information comes from these two, as well as the VIZ translations.
--Many thanks to all of the people who do the fansubs at Lunar Anime, most of my earlier screencaps came from their episodes.
--Thanks to all of the people at l33t-raws.org, I did most of the later screencaps from their raws.
--And SUPER SPECIAL THANK YOU to my husband for helping me with this website, especially the coding and set-up for the Anime Screencaps section!. You're the best, sweetie! (^_^)
--Another SUPER SPECIAL THANK YOU to V for introducing me to the Bleach manga; and special thank yous to all of my other online friends and chat buddies, I really appreciate all of your support!!!
--And now because I've been having absolutely loads and loads of fun there, I'm going to pimp the RPG I'm in at LiveJournal; it's called LOLZ!BLEACH! There are a lot of characters still available, so come, join us, and have fun!
