Tsubasa:Chronicles Episodes 26 - 28
Edit for title.
The manga and anime aren't called the same thing. "ツバサ・クロニクル" as oposed to "ツバサ -RESERVoir CHRoNiCLE"
I don't think resevoirs come into the plot in the anime version either, think the changes to "Sakura"'s magical abilities remove them.

It's like FUNi calling Negima!? season 2 of Negima!, when it's a remake.
"鋼の錬金術師: Full Metal Alchemist" being called "Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood", I can at least understand. As they called "鋼の錬金術師" "Full Metal Alchemist" already.
 
Here is a picture of the front of the box set I own taken from Axel Music. Whether it should say 'Tsubasa: reservoir Chronicles' or not I can't say but if it is wrong blame Funimation.
 
The Japanese titles for the manga and TV are very clearly different. None of the anime versions have -reservoir chronicle (the TV has cronicle but that's no longer in gratuetous english) in the title. As I said it's misleading as the anime doesn't follow that bit of the narative at all.
 
Bleach ep. 255 - 265
This has reminded me why I dropped it. Ennnnnndlesssss fiiiiiilleeeeer. I know 265 is the end of the padding, but it's just annoyed me too much, despite the occasional funny moments. Avoiding the temptation to rant here...

7/10 - may still watch the occasional episode, purely because of the hideous amount of time I've already spent on it (mostly from when I was ill for a week or so).

Seikon no Qwaser [Qwaser of Stigmata] ep. 1 & 2
No idea where to start with this. He gets his power from whatthebreastmilkhell!? The fact this is played completely seriously, along with the kooky religious terminology/symbolism, almost makes it a comedy. The one vaguely interesting aspect of it for me is the actual element-manipulation. There are school girls with the usual oversized breasts / panties / groping / yuri undertones. No doubt people who appreciate little flourishes like a wobbling nipple (uncensored version) will love this. I'm going to stop watching these nonsense shows and go back to GitS: SAC.

5/10 - the art and animation save this from being rated worse.
 
Durarara: Episode 11.

Excellent twist with the Dollars. This series continues the fresh and innovative storytelling and is making Celty into a classic anime character.
 
Bleach Episodes 121 - 144
Well, it may be filler but at least it's entertaining, unlike some of the filler crap I've seen with Bleach.
I'm watching the ARC where all the zanpakutō turn against their masters. I was slowly getting more and more irratated that Kenpachi for some reason wasn't aroud. Reason being that he doesn't use his zanpakutō and he'd be the obvious choice to go kick some arse! He's now tuned up and is fighting Kuchiki.
Even though it's been irratating, I still hate the fact it feels like another universe where the whole main story is involved.... *sigh*
Sorry about all the spoilers. :p
