That's OK, the English dub is pretty good, except for *sigh* Renji's actor.
It's not so much 'just' a countdown, because you're getting a lot of info and action getting there. Kubo Tite, the mangaka, is a brilliant twisty storyteller and everything counts.
Dattebayo has the newer episodes - when you get to that point, you want to skip from ep 64 through 108 because they're filler and the story's kinda stupid - and I got the beginning and Soul Society arc from bleachportal.net and bleachexile.com. They're donation-ware, so technically free (morally obliged), although you have to sign up to download.
Viz has only released 2 DVDs so far, I think, with dual dub-tracks plus subtitles on the Japanese track (my quasisister got them but she wasn't positive about the features - too busy to watch yet).

And yup, the icon's significant. ^_^
