Brawl Stage of the Week: Hueco Mundo
This week's stage is by IGN user Tabris_Arkangel, who had a lot of custom levels to choose from. We ended up picking "Heco Mundo" [sic] because 1) it rocks, and 2) when do you ever see a Bleach stage, really? We've featured a lot of stages here, many of them themed. But Bleach? That's not a concept we often come across.
Heco Mundo by Tabris_Arkangel
Based on Hueco Mundo (which is the accurate spelling), the dimension where the hollows reside in the Bleach-verse, we really like this interpretation. Hueco Mundo is just that -- a "hollow world" -- and this stage captures that essence well. It looks barren, dead, eerie, and yet at the same time, visually appealing.
Great stage structure aside, though, this level is simply fun to play on. It may feel a little too big at times, but wherever you brawl, you're likely to enjoy yourself. You never feel too enclosed, and always have a chance of knocking someone out of the board.

This stage just makes me sad that they dropped the HM arc for more filler.
What the hell...

there's going to be a lot more weird themed submissions now!
looking past the theme, it still looks like a pretty decent stage

Ahh to be trapped in the world of dubs
If it weren't for Wikipedia, i wouldn't have heard of Hueco Mundo anyway, we're still on the part with the introduction of the Baont (sp?)
I would just get the subs off the internet, but there's only time for so much

Once a japanese show gets past the first couple seasons I stop bothering. Too much filler and side development that I could care less about.
But yea, bleach is awesome =)
