I will go ahead and nominate The Underscore, the almighty reviewer in the Bleach section in this round. His contribution, not just quality, but quantity as well were the things that inspired me to start writing some stuff and then call them reviews.

So I nominate The Underscore

**alphabeta** · September 18, 2011 02:40 PM

The first person that I want to nominate is Blackjack612. He is the one who inspired me to do reviews, his reviews are always high-class, he keeps the balance in his comments, meaning, he doesn't focus too much on a single aspect of the chapter. That aside, the stuff he writes is always entertaining, and is actually very easy to read. I feel very proud that I have worked (and still am working) together with such a great reviewer. Black, keep on doing your stuff, bro

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The second person I want to nominate is The Underscore. Alongside Blackjack, he is also one of the reasons why I decided to do reviews. Actually, to tell the truth, even though I decided to do reviews myself, after reading Blackjack's reviews, the format and the way the review should look like I took from The Underscore. I always envied (and still envy) his ability to analyze what Kubo tried to say with his drawings and put it into words, and at the same time make the reader want to read it till the end. There are 2 phases of understanding a Bleach Chapter. 1st, Read the chapter; 2nd read Underscore's Review. Keep it up, man

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And last, but not least, ... *drum rumble* ... the final nominee is benelori. (Yeah, what an unexpected twist of events

). Even though he had to stop doing Reviews after becoming a mod, I still had a chance to see his reviewing skills, when we worked on our Joint Review, and I have to say, that I'm still impressed. The problem of many reviewers is that they write a Summary of what happened, instead of an analyze and overview. But you can't say the same thing about benelori. He combines Underscore's analytic ability and Blackjack's breath-taking way of writing. Bene, we all are waiting for your reviewer comeback, and I'm sure you'll write some awesome Reviews in the future

I will nominate Gold Knight. I don't think a reasoning is necessary, he's after all to reviews what Rikudou Sennin is in Naruto. He's a legend.

I will also throw my support to The Underscore and blackjack612

**thornofcarrion** · September 18, 2011 11:33 PM

I have always loved to read reviews posted by The Underscore.

Update : Blackjack612 and bene, both have been coming up with great reviews and thus they are my other two nominations.

"UNDERSCORE, UNDERSCORE, UNDERSCORE!!!"

That penguin-dude completes every Bleach chapter. Keep up the amazing work _!

**Zeltrax** · September 19, 2011 07:12 AM

Going to nominate alphabeta, the reason being is he tries really hard ( or so I think) in all his reviews,

I mean, compared to the pros, he just started but seriously his reviews are nothing less and brings a good smile.

Going to nominate blackjack612 too for his high quality and extremely detailed reviews.

**jorped** · September 19, 2011 07:34 AM

Of all the reviews i have read so far blackjack612 is indeed imo the one that best reviews make and the ones i most enjoy, though everyone knows that i am a Narutard .... so

Seriously it isn't really because he reviews Naruto ... but because his reviews are always very detailed and i think he understands perfectly the story and what happens in each chapter. So he is without any doubts the best reviewer for me.

Second i nominate alphabeta cuz he really tries hard and he manages to make me laugh at some moments . Keep the awesome work Alpha

**dark lord** · September 19, 2011 07:36 AM

I nominate alphabeta! His reviews are awesome...you should absolutely read them before nominating anyone else.

**kdowns** · September 19, 2011 09:19 AM

I nominated Alphabeta, because his Bakuman reviews kept me entertained :3
And he had the patenice to try and teach me how to become a reviewer.

**naruto-niichan** · September 19, 2011 01:20 PM

My first nomination goes to The Underscore, he's already a old-stager when it comes to reviews but he's still as good or even better as when he first started. He stayed true to Bleach even in it's most severe moments and I'm still amazed how he's able to deliver such a lot of information from just one chapter.

My second nomination goes to alphabeta because I always enjoyed his reviews and I thought he did an awesome job with the Joint Review.

**goldb** · September 19, 2011 01:44 PM

My first nomination will be The Underscore cos whenever a Bleach chapter came out, his reviews were never far behind; he's inspired many to follow up and become reviewers and still to this day has a massive fan base on MH. My second nomination will be alphabeta, though he's just starting out, I really believe he's got a lot of potential as long as he keeps his focus and head down.

**Josef K.** · September 19, 2011 04:43 PM

LoneLobo - The best One Piece reviewer in my opinion.

**scav** · September 19, 2011 09:51 PM

first I nominate segua. He doesn't review chapters but he made countless manga review in the review forum. i read some of them and i gotta say he's really good to describe the art and to analyse the good and the bad with a manga.

second i nominate alphabeta that guy really love writing review. He make them funny and entertaining to read. He also always trying to bring something new to his reviews and to te community.

third i nominate benelori that mofo know his stuff
