Can anyone explain the reasoning behind Kubo's philosophy? Kubo believes (at least from the manga) that you should progress, but complete. So for example, you should strive for perfection, but never reach perfection. You should fight against death, but never defeat death.
What is the logic behind this? Why is stagnation bad? Why is complete satisfaction of our circumstances bad?

Yes, retard. And there would be no such thing as bravery if there was no death. But bravery is to fight against death, whether it be your own or that of others. This relates to my question.

>>
>>281949507
Like I said before, I don’t understand how those shitty Studio Pierrot guys don’t call Shingo Ogiso back. He’s responsible for corrections and some key animations in the Grimmjow vs Ichigo episode. He was one of the best on the old staff, and from what it seems, he hasn’t retired yet, so it looks like Pierrot just doesn’t call him out of sheer disinterest

Not to mention Hironori Tanaka, he was responsible for that Ichigo vs Ulquiorra fight in the Hell movie, that explosion in the Ichigo vs Aizen fight, and some cuts in a few filler episodes. If I’m not mistaken, he’s also a Bleach fan. The fucked-up part is that there’s a leak saying he’s going to appear in the new Black Clover season, which probably proves that those sons of bitches are going to prioritize Black Clover over Cour 4

It looks more like experimental test footage than from an actual anime episode. I'm not sure why they went with this approach.
>>
>>281951852
Because TYBW is a testing ground for pierrot to improve future animes.

Murata: If you’ve been watching from Cour 1 to Cour 3, I think you’ve probably noticed how the overall visual quality has steadily improved.

We hope you’ll continue to enjoy seeing that.

In Cour 3, for example, we added scenes where the backgrounds were made entirely using CG.

In Cour 4, we’re planning to take on even more of those kinds of creative challenges.

It’s not just me—many different creators are testing new approaches behind the scenes,
all in service of delivering the best possible quality.

>>281951921
Interesting. Kind of weird that this is both "we're messing around to see what works, so we can deliver solid future anime products" and "we want to finally end Bleach the way it deserves." Kind of feels like they should have used something more inconsequential to test stuff and then just focus on a solid ending for Bleach.

Pierrot crashed and burned with Boruto and Black Clover, so they were desperate to get their industry status back.
>>
>>281952050
If there's truly a movie in development I wonder how that's gonna turn out considering the production for cour 4 being all in on it.
>>
>>281952143
That might explain why cour 2 looked liked ass.
>>
Cour 2 was mostly a letdown but cour 3 was a step up aside from the wonky Pernida CG. I have high hopes for cour 4 except for the Gerard fight, which no doubt will be mostly CG.
>>
>>281952211
I didn't like anything after cour 1. And I don't know why they have a sick fetish for all these annoying colors. I was struggling to finish the last two cours but did so because it was Bleach.
>>
Cour 2 Komamura episode broke my heart. Big doggo deserved better than awful cgi.
>>
>>281952250
Fuck man, I cried admittedly. But man did that cgi look like fucking dogshit, no pun intended. But komamura was always one of my favorite characters so...
>>
I think you people are forgetting that literal fucking filler had better animation than a lot of the action scenes in the TYBW adaptation. Cour 1 had the best animation overall though.
And when you compare TYBW to the likes of JJK and KnY, you realize just how much better things could have been.
It could have been better, and for a title as amazing as Bleach, it should have been better.
>>
>>281952176
It was ass because they prioritized the Black Clover movie, and the production committee only gave six months for production. On top of that, Taguchi was directing the Digimon movie, so everything that could go wrong did in Cour 2’s production
>>
So in Bleach, you die and go to soul society then die again and go to hell? What happens if you die in hell? Is that reincarnating to Earth?
>>
>>281952280
Lets all hope the movie will compensate if it happens with a new staff.
>I think you people are forgetting that literal fucking filler had better animation than a lot of the action scenes in the TYBW adaptation.
I never forgot because Bleach is my favorite shonen lol. That's why it's bizarre to me to see some of this revision history of tybw having amazing animation, and I'm like did you guys even watch the previous Bleach anime or even movies for that matter?
>>
The only good episodes in court 2 were:
Mask episode
Rukia bankai episode
Kenpachi episode
The last episode
Everything else was mediocre to bad

You're not fooling anyone borutranny you lways show up when something positive of tybw is mentioned

I hope we get a new director that actually uses the OST properly.

TYBW is basically twice as long as the SS arc (and still longer than the beginning + SS combined), yet it felt like it just blew by. Did I just check out that hard when reading the manga or is it all that superficial?
>>
>>281958229
This was a nightmare to read when it was coming out.
>>
>>281958252
Sounds like a bit of both with a good chunk of the former, then. Bleach is super cool, but has really struggled to hold my attention for very long and I had to push myself to get back into it a couple times.
I haven't been watching the new anime, but I'm curious what they've done different and if they've "improved" anything from the manga.
>>
>>281958310
It's pretty good starting from the beginning of the invasion like the manga then it slowly gets worse and worse until it becomes unbearable to watch. Sucks because I came back years after the end of Bleach to watch the new anime only to run into the same feelings I had when I read it the first time. It's for people who only like good music and sparkle visuals. As for the story, oh it's still extremely bad.

Main cast is never allowed to do anything new. They can't just pull Kubo aside and say, "hey we need Ukitake's bankai for this movie. It'll be a flashback to when he fought the main villain 200 years ago." No. Instead, they'll just have Ichigo fire a gran rey cero getsuga, which will fail, and the villain's backstory will be reduced to something gay like getting beaten by Ukitake's shikai. Which also won't have any new details.

Bleach only exists because Pierrot's reputation was in the gutter. Kubo didn't even know if this shit was coming back or not.
>"To survive in animation nowadays, you must make high-quality series and be able to sell them globally. Pierrot was seen as not very skilled at that" - Tominaga
After they fucked up Boruto and BC's potential they tried to use Bleach as a last resort for a test subject with new animation techniques using the seasonal cour format to copy more competent studios. And they still fucked it up in the end.

Don't be sad if BC looks better than Bleach as a whole, Bleach walked so other animes could run. And Taguchi is a low tier director placed on niche projects so that was already a red flag.

Memories of Nobody - 3/5, Senna was a great character and the Nobodies/Valley of Screams are canonized, so you could say this movie actually happened in the main timeline. Everyone just forgot Senna because of the mechanics of how it all works.
DiamondDust Rebellion: 2/5, starts strong and has good animation for a few fights, but the ending is a total slog and it's never fun watching the main cast slog on a giant fixed target. Villain's story was compelling but also made no sense. Story would have had more value if it tried to play into canon.
Fade to Black: 1/5, forgettable, only saving grace was Rukia's new form.
Hell Verse: 2/5, mostly forgettable, some good animation, had the Ulquiorra fight, but wasn't true at all to Kubo's vision of the hell realm. Will be a bad memory if the Hell arc ever sheds light on things.

Never saw the Live Action movie.

My problem with the movies and fillers is that they try to fit stories into the timeline where they don't belong and they just rehash the themes/fights of the previous arc.

I would pay to watch a Bleach movie with a canon story set in a different time period. Like, give us a movie about the original Gotei 13, or the early days of the Soul King and Noble feud.

Idk I'm just worn out by the filler. I want stories that really build on the world.

>>281961305
The vast roster is exactly what gives Bleach the potential for good movies and side stories, which is completely wasted because they never capitalize on it.

Also it's not even that many characters. There's like 200 at most if you include every minor character. Most kids can name more Pokemon than that. Even losers like me know more people than that. If you want a short and sweet story, then a serialized shonen isn't a good place to look.

I'm pretty sure there are Chinese epics with thousands of characters. It's not a big deal. The world is a big place. In truth we live in a story with 8 billion characters, and billions more who are dead or unborn.

>>
>>281961681
I don't get the hate really. At least for the first half of the manga.

Fake Karakura to TYBW in the manga was so brutal and oppressive. Every other chapter was some main character getting gored or smashed into rocks or bleeding to death. It becomes cheap when you realize most of them live.

But I relished the despair of watching SS get stomped sideways by the Quincies. And the final Espada fights were so utterly hax, there's no way any of the captains should have won.

Not saying I didn't enjoy Kyoraku finessing Starrk with his broken shikai.
>>
>>281961761
>At least for the first half of the manga.
I mean the first half of TYBW in the manga. No doubt people love the first half of Bleach.

But TYBW was like watching Kubo build up this big lego city for years and then just deciding to smash it to pieces Godzilla style. It was incredible.
>>
>>281957665
Cour 2 had 6 months production time. Cour 3 had 15 months and it was good except for 1 episode. Cour 4 will have the same production time or even more.
>>
>>281961761
I didn't get the hate either until I watched it. I had zero memory of the manga years ago and wanted a refresh. I was like wow cour 1 was amazing, then it kept going. Now I'm on the edge of dropping Bleach if it doesn't get better.

The ones that he assumes are fuming over him with every post. The thing about faceless text based internet interactions is that when you want to believe you're making someone mad, every post regardless of content as well as the absence of posts is proof you're 'winning.' are those posters ignoring you and having their own conversation? nope, they're really really mad and trying to drown out your posts and are probably one guy samefagging. some rando starts replying based to all your posts? look how mad he is, he's trying to get you to fuck off with reverse psychology by pretending he isn't chomping at the bit. and so on and so forth. often on top of a delusion of "I liven the place up and make it more fun, so everyone would miss getting mad at me if I just stopped"

It's because this general only has a handful of posters who are all autistic and want to talk about the same thing over and over.

Same way Ichigo and Orihime end on a hopeful note in the pilot, despite being star-crossed lover (although it's not explicit Ichigo loves her, and they're just friends, you get the point). Plus, in the actual manga, Ichigo was going to end up being forced to stay in SS because of his power, same way Isshin was forced to stay in the Human World to save Masaki
>inb4 muh soul ticks retcon about Ichigo getting chopped up
That shit makes no sense. Those tickets were taken from the pilot, where they fulfilled the simple purpose of visitation rights. And not only is there no point in Shunsui giving tickets to his friends and family just so they can see his corpse (what a kind guy) why would you reveal SS's dirties secret? And like, would Ichigo and his friends like just accept him getting chopped up like that? It's so stupid.
>>
>>281973880
Maybe they were planning to make Ichigo a fully functioning soul king. The whole ticket plot doesn’t make sense to me either. And why is it still in the anime.
>>
>>281973880
It was in case Ichigo couldn't control his reiatsu post Squad Zero training. Shunsui had to think in advance.
>>
>>281973998
The former aligns perfectly with the idea that his power is too great to return to the Human World. And it's still in the anime because Narita's retcon will probably be given to explain them later on.
>>281973999
That is not "thinking" at all. If his intent was to chop him up along with Ichibei in case there was no substitute for the SK, then there is no point in giving them the tickets. He could've just kept his friends and especially his family in the dark. Like, what were they gonna do? Clone Ichigo so his friends and family can see that fake entity while the real Ichigo's corpse sits up in the Royal Realm? That is the only way I can resolve this logically.
>>
>>281973999
That still sounds like nonsense if the test was secretly to see if Ichigo could replace the soul king.

Was Ichigo really supposed to stay in SS originally?

Also his dad basically did that and wasn't even depressed

I haven't watched the entirety of Bleach yet and I'm probably asking to be spoiled by bringing this up, but there's this reoccurring gag of a "new student" being introduced in Ichigo's classroom. (used during both filler and non-filler). They've skirted the lines a little with having Hitsugaya and Motsumoto join as temporary students already (with them appearing younger and older than ordinary high school students), but the ultimate end to this would be to pass off a character who looks extremely old as a new student.

Say hello to our new student. Treat him well! :D

Well yeah, that's the point. Ichigo was being manipulated left right and center but still got his BS happy ending that makes no sense. The story seems to have been build up to a tragic ending for him, but I guess editors can't allow that kind of thing for the MC of a WSJ battle shounen. Especially since Orihime's love for him has to be resolved somehow, and a long-distance relationship isn't exactly marketable.

Not even platonically. He drove the SS arc to a weird end and the relegated Rukai to a much more minor character status whose biggest role is just to be a plot device whenever he need to jumpstart the next major arc, more or less.
One anon even claimed he started keeping them apart more on purpose because of all the shipping, which sucks because their dynamic was a major core part of Bleach (which is reflected in the cover art and spreads he kept drawing all the way to the end and beyond) and we got no real payoff for it. Even her bankai and everything didn't seem to amount to much (did she even get to use it front of Ichigo or let him see it? I honestly don't remember).

Or, the SS arc ending could be different and would set up Rukia having to live again in the human world to continue working with Ichigo, then there could be a different tragectory that makes his ending up living a normal life in Karakura town make sense (he's a multi-species god-like entity and os just chilling as normal civilian in the canon ending because...why, again?), so Rukia could just live there.
Otherwise, having Ichigo be the one that ends up in a different world for the rest of his days would be the best option. Speaking of, how would that play out? Would he age at a normal rate, die, and then just continue living as a spirit as an adult with Rukia?

Why are you comparing the terrified Orihime before Ulquiorra kills Ichigo to the determined Masaki? And then he does it again. Then there's the tumor/Cero that Isshin/Ulquiorra saved Masaki/Orihime from.

Yes. I'm really only invested when Ichigo or Kenpachi is on screen and they're a sliver of the series. There's this whole universe of side characters that they want me to care about, that they've put a whole lot of effort in developing, and Hitsugaya+Motsumoto are basically the "second protagonists" of the series as they get huge swathes of screen time dedicated to them as if the show is about them. There are lots of good moments along the way, but you could trim a vast amount of it and nothing would be lost.

She was always more of a plot device than an actual character with agency for most of the story, and by that I mean that she spent 2/3 of the story either depowered, or being a damsel in distress, and was really not that remarkable as a shinigami even when she could use her powers. TYBW is the odd case because it's when she's at her powerful (or at least that's what were told to believe) but it's when she gets the least panel time.

That's why he started posting Gigi with Orihime after we started calling him the Orihimeschizo.
He is trying to make it seem like he is not a Orihimefag but a Gigifag.

Easy, Ichigo is forced to stay in Soul Society because end of series he's too strong to continue staying in the Living World without breaking the fragile seperation of worlds making Yhwach the winner despite his defeat.

It's not even a stretch either when you remember that fucking VC are limited to 20% of their strength which includes people like fucking Momo and Omaeda.
Ichigo isn't going to restrain himself if something is going down and he sees it. Remember at the start of the series where he's giving Rukia attitude about doing her job while he has her powers and she drags him to a park where a Hollow shows up?
Ichigo tells Rukia that he doesn't give a shit but if something happens where he can see it, he will do something about it.

Kubo set this up with Soul Tickets like that other anon mentioned which would let his friends and family visit him.

I genuinely believe Kubo went with Ichihime as a final fuck you to his audience, how else would you explain the second half of TYBW?

she had some prominence in the soul society and fake katakura town arc

>>281988681
Not him, and the behavior doesn't correlate which is why I told you that.

Idk what the fuck Kubo was thinking was this. It's clearly a dropped plot point in the manga. Kubo seriously needs an editor, so many things get hinted at and dropped halfway. You know what, I think I'm done with tybw. I'm not even going to give cour 4 a chance as cour 3's plot was very thin and lacking. I was only forcing myself to watch it because I'm a Bleach fan but I can't take all the bad writing anymore.

>>281988905
Did pierrot give up too? No one wants to address how badly marketed Bleach has been outside of some banners on the street. Either the producers are being stingy or they have internally given up on the anime continuation and would rather promote more future gatcha. I’m seriously worried about cour 4.

Yeah, I could see why you would, being a fucking retard, and all.

>how else would you explain the second half of TYBW?
What's there to explain? That it doesn't conform to your schizo headcanon? As it's already been explained to you, other than being a reference to the pilot, the ticket plot thread being related to forcing Ichigo to stay at SS is utter nonsense. Even in the case that it was actually the case that Ichigo was forced to act as the new SK, he'd be trapped inside the SK palace maintaining balance regardless of whether or not he gets to keep his body whole, and your shitty ship still wouldn't happen anyway.

NTA, but it's clearly a dropped point. It makes zero sense to give Ichigo's friends tickets only to see him chopped up for eternity.
>>
>>281988001
Happy indeed. Can't wait for the Hell arc to reveal she's pregnant with Ichigo's second child.
>>
>>281989066
Him being chopped up or not isn't the point. Nobody was going to force the MC to spend an eternity of let's face it, fucking boring serfdom shoved in an ivory tower prison because he's too powerful even for conventional SS at this point after all the hard battles he fought to keep the people he loves safe. Even if you argue that the Gotei 13 would try to pitch this to him as protecting not only his friends & family but the whole of reality, that's not a role he would embrace. He loves protecting, but he wants to do it by being present and with his own hands. So why the ticket you ask? There were just there as a res herring to create the impression that he may not come back this time and be forced to remain surrounded by a bunch of assholes he barely knows or cares about while separating from his friends and family out of a sense of comformist Japanese duty.

So yes, it's a dropped plot point.

I’m starting to dislike Orihime because of this clown.

Sure, ''just starting' ' IR schizo.

>>281989529
No, I was one of the few who posted Ichihime and enjoyed the ship after some time due to the Orihimefag. But these threads have been so terrible lately because of them that it's turning me off.

>>281989454
Candice hates Gigi's troon ass.

>But these threads have been so terrible lately because of them that it's turning me off.
If anything, a few Orihime/Ichihime posts are the least of these threads problems. There's more posts by some IR schizo that calls everyone and everything an Orihimefag than actual Orihime posts.
>>
>>281989704
I'm starting to believe you're them. I like ichihime but you're legitimately insane.

Yeah, and you're clearly that IR schizo who calls everyone his boogeyman. See how that works for a conversation?

I'm not him and you can't say otherwise.

Man, 2026 is so stacked with really popular, high-production anime that I think cour 4 is going to be completely overshadowed, just like cour 2 was when it aired alongside Jujutsu Kaisen, and almost nobody talked about it

They are the worst part of the Bleach fandom

Do you think that might've been a reason they delayed it
>>
>>281989879
I dunno, can you, Rayesh? Also, noticeably how the Gigi faggot went silent. How convenient.
>>
>>281990033
I'm losing all hope for cour 4. The ending fight in the manga was horrible, pierrot are known liars, with every cour passing hype drops, and the marketing is poor. With BC coming out, I'm afraid that will suck up the talent pool.

LOL. LMAO even. Who even watches Blacked Clover and since when does Pierrot give a fuck about how it's animated? Where are you all negative nancies crawling from when not even the staff has been announced for either?

Here's your (YOU) Rakesh, don't spend it all in one place.

If there's a movie being made I want that to be the comeback for Bleach or maybe another game. Tybw just isn't good enough.

Anon we literally have the soul tickets scene after we learn Isshin got stuck in the human world, and we already see Aizen killing normal humans just by being around them. It isn't hard to see how the series was going to end with Ichigo in soul society until Kubo just dropped that scenario
>>
>>281990739
Then they kept it in the anime only to do nothing with it. Incompetence.
>>
>>281966868
I loved getting Kubo'd like this. Take me back to 2009...

you're clearly ack/emi undergoing strange new forms of psychosis and samefaggotry since yuri threads are getting better at ignoring you
>>
>>281990591
A part of the Black Clover staff has already leaked, and it looks pretty solid. Apparently, Pierrot even got Hironori Tanaka on board, he’s the guy responsible for the Ichigo vs. Ulquiorra fight in the Hell movie, and if I’m not mistaken, he’s a Bleach fan. Kind of weird that he’s never worked on any TYBW cour before
>>
Didn't they already sacrifice cour 2 for the bc movie
>>
>>281990739
Isshin had a reason to stay at the human world which was the woman he fell for who literally needed him to remain stable. Ichigo's in the exact opposite situation, 99% of the people he loves are on the living plane. Why would he give that up to be some asshole's slave willingly?
>>
>>281991020
Their staff is looking so much better than any of the TYBW cours, I'm seething so much.
>>
Ignore the schizo shitfling, just congratulate Orihime and move on.
