Reasons you might like Bleach Movie 2: The DiamondDust Rebellion...

Sianeka Sianeka says...

Bleach and Naruto are action-filled adventure anime, and it is no stretch to say that if you like Naruto, you'll probably like Bleach.  So if you liked the Guardians of the Crescent Moon Kingdom movie, I think you will like the Bleach Diamond Dust rebellion movie.

Besides sharing a shounen friendly atmosphere, both movies are thematically similar in that they expound on the power and meaning of friendship.  The royal family of the Moon Kingdom, Hikaru and his father Michiru Tsuki, learn it is important to protect "that which really matters" and their experiences teach them exactly what things in life matter the most.  In the Bleach movie, Soul Reaper Squad Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya has to decide how important friendship is and to what lengths one must go to preserve a friendship.

The Bleach movie is a bit more complex exploration of this theme, and seems a natural progression -- once you've learned the value of friendship in Guardians, you should next see Diamond Dust Rebellion to reflect on  the friendships you've made.
