But actually after watching the video it reassures the opinion that Bleach should have ended after the defeat of Aizen. Because later the were not any aizen-effect anymore :heh: Also it shocked how much indeed Bleach changed. Sad that such thing happened to manga that was once one of three pillars of SJ :( |

Yeah but Toriyama had a great editorial staff. Kubo was constantly having to fight against his. After 15+ years it would get to anyone. And about taking it a week or a month at a time. I agree. After the ss arc especially that seems to be the case. Quote:

Indeed. Perhaps I was clueless as to the behind the scenes going on with Kubo.
|
or he could actually follow Toriyama's footstep and handle character designer for some games, I would totally check those games out :p

Good ideas, poor execution. It was rushed because of cancellation. Also they really should have focused more on Rukia as Shinigami protagonist.
I may be a minority, but I never saw anything romantic between Ichigo and Rukia, rather they were two POVS from two sides of the story. They met and helped each other to fix their world, but their respective love interests were obvious from the start. The manga further drove this point, they live apart and had their own family and are content like that (unless Ichigo loses his power and always goes angsty about that). Thanks to that meeting, they can go on and enjoy their lives and family the fullest because they moved past of a trauma and were able to reach out the people they wanted to reach, but it doesn't mean they enjoy each other's company the best. So that as basis worked for a while until... Rukia vanished. The problem is that it focuses exclusively on Ichigo and we barely saw Rukia's side of things after Hueco Mundo, that's okay but she felt less and less as Soul Society World POV and just part of the cast there. Yeah, the tie in novel helped to fill the gap in Fullbring arc but was still a bit underwhelming. Kubo should have divided and organized his POVs better. |

The best protagonist option was clearly Aizen, of course. |
I didn't find Ichigo boring. His interactions with Rukia in the early chapters were gold and while he became stronger in each arc, he was given new hardships such as his Hollow self. There, he became more serious but it was more suitable for the arc.
Still, what I found the manga's weak point is how long the Hollow arc became. They recycled a damsel in distress storyline but unlike Rukia's arc, this went overboard. We had about over 20 volumes just to make Ichigo and Urahara defeat Aizen in less than a volume. |
Where can I find translations on the Bleach novels? I also know what happens in the ones that came out/are coming out after the manga ended.
I personally have no problem with Ichigo. I understand that there are more interesting characters, like Yoruichi, Urahara, and etc., but it's not like Ichigo himself was that bad of a choice as the main protagonist. |

Has anyone seen this video by Mathwiz? He brings up a good point about how Bleach actually has some interesting themes and how the quality of the show is different across cultures. |

I am not sure if this has been posted yet but here is a documentary about the Bleach series and its reputation. |
What went wrong in Bleach? Some fillers, just like in Naruto. Fillers ruin everything. If it were me, I would remaster Bleach and Naruto and cut off all the fillers. They would be clean 10/10 anime if fillers were to be eradicated as the abscesses they are. Except with the girls on the beach, those ones can be left be.
Bleach is back, can't wait for the manga, hopefully also the novels ecranisations!:smile: |
