hmmm...I've always thought the "modern rock" approach to designs and some character attitudes kept it from being too realistic, myself. But then, I don't have to do real life nitty gritty planning type stuff in my job(i sit, listen, read and do paperwork)

How far into Bleach are you? My favorites are Ichigo, Ishida and Renji(in no real order...that's generally determined by which is up to what) but I have a feeling that you may like Rukia's brother best.
