As I mentioned at the end of August's Fangirl Monthly post, September's box is Bleach. Bleach is an anime and manga series that I collect, when I first started Bleach I actually couldn't get into it and stopped after about 3 or 4 episodes, a few months later I decided to give it another go and this time was hooked from the start. I have to say that my favourite characters are Ichigo and Orihime, to say I'm a big fan of the series I'm ashamed to say that I have neither finished reading the manga or watching the anime, I'm excited but also sceptical of the live action movie being released as we all saw what happened to Attack on Titan, some can work as live action and some don't but we'' have to wait and see how this one pans out. I'd be surprised if people that enjoy anime and manga are not familiar with Bleach as along with Naruto and One Piece it was classed as one of the big 3, the series follows Ichigo Kurosaki after he obtains soul reaper powers from soul reaper Rukia Kuchiki, he now has to take on the duties of a soul reaper defending humans from evil spirits and guiding souls to the afterlife.
Shall we check out the goodies from the box?





First up we have an EXCLUSIVE "BLEACH CREW" POSTCARD PRINT, this is our usual postcard print by Mayu Matsumoto. I love that this postcard print includes all the main characters even Kon, the background colour makes each of the characters pop especially Ichigo.


Next we have a ICHIGO KUROSAKI HOLLOW MASK REFLECTIVE DECAL, I have no idea where I'm going to place this to be honest, but I will be turning the small bedroom into a reading room with all my manga and K-pop in there, so maybe I could place it on the window or on the wall. I do think this looks pretty amazing so I can't wait to get to find a place to put it.


Next we have our CUSTOM SHINIGAMI SYMBOL COTTON JEWELRY POUCH, I've said before that I love that we get custom jewelry pouches for each theme to keep the jewelry and accessories in, it's such a pretty blue that they've used for the pouch.


Next we have an ICHIGO KUROSAKI HOLLOW MASK NECKLACE, I think this necklace is a very versatile item as I think it's a good item for either guys or girls to wear. The chain is a good length for that it just sits below the neck and just above the chest. I love the colours on the necklace as well as the design and the little gem for the eye. It's easy to put on and take off, which is good as you don't want to be stood a long time messing with the clasp to wear it.


Next we have INOUE ORIHIME INSPIRED HAIR PINS, as I said at the start of the post Orihime is one of my favourite characters from Bleach, overall she is my favourite female character. These cute pins came at the right time for me as I've started pinning my fringe back. I think they're really ideal for people that are wanting to cosplay as Orihime and I can honestly say that this has to be my favourite item from this box.


Next we have a SHINIGAMI CHARM BRACELET, personally for me this looks like a bracelet for a guy more than a girl. Sadly for me this bracelet is way too big for me but it does look well made.



Lastly we have a CUSTOM KON ACRYLIC KEYCHAIN, we've had an acrylic keychain before as well as an acrylic broach, which for me the Kon keychain looks the best, I will be adding him to my keys.

It's now time to get into all the business side of the Fangirl Monthly subscription box, whatever month you subscribe, as long as it's before the deadline you will get that months box, if it's after the deadline you will receive the next months box. Each box comes with 3-5 anime and manga inspired jewelry, accessories and goodies from a selected series each month. You get the choice of what term of what subscription plan you would like, there's a 6 month plan which is $102/£83.69 and renews every 6 months until you cancel, there is a 3 month plan which is $52.50/£43.08 and renews every 3 months until you cancel, and finally there is a monthly plan which is the plan I am on, which is $18/£14.77 and renews every month until you cancel. You are able to skip any of the months boxes if you need to for any reason. These boxes do not include shipping and each shipping price varies for where they are shipping to, I pay £24.81 a month which is including shipping. If you are interested in subscribing or fancy checking them out then you can head over to the Fangirl Monthly website.


We got some amazing goodies in our Bleach box, I expected it to be very Ichigo inspired but I'm glad we got something Orihime related, I was also expecting to see something inspired by the Zanpakuto, which is the swords all the soul reapers use. Overall the Bleach box was a great box that was very versatile which I have noticed tends to happen with the shows that have a mixed gender audience.
I am looking forward to the October box but I did fight with myself whether to skip Octobers box but decided to get the box and compare it to our first box, which I'm sure may have you wondering why.
October Box is Sailor V.
