icon wins. it's so true.

I guess it's inevitable that the anime for a long-running manga will have inferior animation, but it just seems to me like the Bleach anime is particularly bad. Other people may be more forgiving of it, or may like the seiyuu (who are definitely awesome) enough to overlook it. But it tends to put me off.

I haven't watched the anime regularly for a long time, myself. But they definitely made a lot of changes in the pre-SS arc era. I was shocked at them, since they basically just kept chopping stuff out--it seemed like they were trying to get to fillers faster. :P They messed around with the first Memories in the Rain arc in really weird ways (and did the same thing with the second one, wtf ZOMBIE LADY SHIBA), for one thing. On the level of ships, they took out a lot of Orihime's daydreams and played up a "romantic" angle between Ichigo and Rukia, to the point of having Rukia talk about having found "true love" with Ichigo as she was leaving to go back to SS (that might have been partly the subbers' fault, but there had to be something there for them to work with). I also hear that they cut down on the Renji/Rukia interaction. Additionally, they made a big thing of having Aizen seem all sinister from the start and making his interaction with Hinamori less personal; I know several friends of mine who are Aizen/Hinamori shippers watched the anime equivalent of chapter 100 and got annoyed because it removed a lot of little touches that had made the relationship seem more romantic in the manga.

Finally, as a last insult (that I know of), during the Yoruichi/Soi Fong fight, they had Yoruichi proclaim that Soi Fong was "like a sister" to her. Which, uh, definitely not in the manga.
