I think I like Bleach better than SDK at this point for a few reasons. First is that I like the art better. Kubo has these wonderfully expressive faces on his characters and his action scenes are easier for me to read. I'm also a sucker for series with complicated politics, which both SDK and Bleach have. In Bleach, once you get into Soul Society, you really start to get a sense of competing interests and agendas being played out by the various captains. As interested in university politics as I am, I recognize the power plays in Bleach a little more than I do in SDK, where I sometimes have trouble figuring out which Mibu is which. I also like that Bleach has a nice range of female characters in terms of personality. Yeah, the boobage quotient gets pretty high after awhile (Do any of the shinigami women wear bras?), but they're still kick ass.
Lastly, I have a crush on Kisuke Urahara. Just so damned cool and I want to know what he's really up to. As for Byakuya, his picture is next to repression and denial in the psychoanalytic dictionary. :-) Plus Byakuya has this one line to Ukitake which is such a slap in the face.
