He managed to write BLEACH for 15 years. This is all thanks to the readers. He has received ten thousands of fan letters over the years. From 3 year old children to 78 year old ladies. He has read and kept every single letter. They helped him push through whenever he felt like giving up.

But his health started deteriorating in the 10th year.

His doctor told him it was just a cold. In the past, he would get better in a day or so. But this suddenly changed. He’d be bedridden for a week. Whenever JUMP Magazine would have a double issue [and therefore be on a break the next week], he’d stay in bed the entire week to rest. But after a while, that stopped working too. Whenever he thought he was better, he’d get a cold again. No matter what he did. It was an endless cycle.

He felt pathetic. He felt he was failing as a mangaka. A mangaka is someone who delivers a manga with a set quality within a set time. So should he really continue the series? Should he stop? But the story is only halfway finished. What should he do? How should he end it? He thought about this every, every, every single day.

But then he got a letter. One letter. It had no name or address on it.

It was from a sick boy. His medicine had stopped working and he was now hospitalized, stuck in bed. He was unable to enjoy anything, because whenever he’d watch TV or play games, he’d be reminded of the times he had spent with his friends. He learned his sickness was incurable. If so, he wanted to die right away. But he was told to please live the days he had left: 18 months.

The boy wrote that he had decided to immerse himself in the world of manga as a way to enjoy his last days. He read various manga and ended up discovering BLEACH. The thought of “wanting to read the next volume of BLEACH” was the first time since his hospitalization that he had thought about “tomorrow”. BLEACH changed his world. BLEACH gave him life again.

>>149857067
The boy had asked this letter to be sent after his death. In other words, the boy has already passed on.

The letter ended with the words: “Kubo-sensei, I have one final request. Please draw BLEACH the way you want to draw it, right until its conclusion. That’s what I want to read.”

…

Kubo has one request to the people reading his message. He asks for people to help him find out who wrote the letter. He understands this is a difficult and selfish request, however: “I want to express my gratitude towards him. Because, he is unable to read this thank-you manga.”

>>149855525
>I ended the manga right at the 15th anniversary mark with ichihime

Fabulous bastard.

>>149857067
>>149857091
True or not, this is worth making a manga about,

>>149857067
Dammit, I sure hope he wasn't a IRfag.

Kazooie is that young boy reborn.

>>149857202
From the sound of it, the fan was probably too young to even know what Shipping is.

>>149857067
This certainly confirms that the reason for Bleach's end was Kubo's health.

>I ended Bleach the way I wanted
So the man himself admits to being a complete hack.

>>149857344
He cut the filler and rushed the ending, but the outcome remains the same.
Ichigo never got the chance to use his full power and perhaps that is for the best. Orihime got her five lifetimes and Ichigo killed god. Hopefully we will know more in the LNs, they have a habit of adding useful background info after all.

>>149857344
Reading comprehension isn't found here apparently. Kubo admitted that his health started to deteriorate and in all likelihood that was the reason for the abrupt ending.

I don't even mind how Bleach ended, I just hate how we got there. Why was Ichigo's original Zangetsu within his Bankai and why was it the only weapon capable of killing Ywach? What happened to Yoruchi,her brother and Urahara?

hopefully he'll have more freedom in his next manga. working non-stop and only getting a break during golden week is rough~

It's interesting how Kubo drew less and less backgrounds because of his health and yet was too prideful to let his assistants do it. It's like he is a Bleach Character.

Eh this looks fake

>>149857531
The part about his health is 100% real. He already implied that several times in past volumes. Don't know about the kid though.

Drawing weekly manga just strains the body way too much and you will be dead before you hit 60.
That's probably why Tezuka and Ishinomori died so early.

>>149857434
>>149857590
How severe is it? I know that he caught ill from time to time, but I thought it was just a mild immune deficiency brought on by the occupation.

>>149857470
I can explain all that.
>Why was Ichigo's original Zangetsu within his Bankai
Because Ichigo initially interrupted Nimaiya while the sword was being reforged. It returning to its original form signifies that Ichigo's powers are once again 'whole' and the sword was reforged. And also that his quincy powers are still with him.
>why was it the only weapon capable of killing Ywach?
Yhwach was killed due to a number of reasons.
1. Uryu's arrow stopped his almighty long enough for Ichigo to deal a decisive blow.
2. His powers had not fully returned when Ichigo struck him.
3. It's not the sword itself that was the only thing capable of killing him, but the form of the sword that caught him off guard. When he saw the original form of Zangetsu coming at him he thought back to the vision he had as he was waking up that he had initially dismissed as a nightmare and not a vision of The Almighty. So when he saw the shikai blade he flinched and that slight delay created an opening for Ichigo, while Yhwach was still recovering from the arrow.
And lastly perhaps
4. He saw another future possibility. Instead of continuing to fight he was always going to lose he decided to escape and make Ichigo's future son his host. Kazui, who he knows Ichigo will never be able to strike down and who will have vast potential and skill surpassing even Ichigo himself. So instead of continuing to fight a losing battle he made a retreat and sought a better vessel.
He wasn't the ruler of the ancient world for nothing.

>>149857797
Tezuka was a work horse who slaved on several weekly manga at a time. Modern mangaka are pussies compared to Tezuka. But yeah, Japanese industrial practices are dog shit.

Jesus... All these guys have health problems. It's all stress and lack of fitness and nutrition. Freaking jump needs to make more ergonomic and better flexible contracts for the authors. They get treated like shit.

Kubo has been looking cleaner and healthier again after having not been working the past few months. Goes to show how fucking awful Shuisa is.

>that kid died disappointed by bleach

>>149857434
Point being, if he knew he had to end it sooner than he initially wanted due to sickness, he wouldn't have drawn out all the stupid fucking meaningless henchman duels, sidelining the main villain, and only tell the audience what his motivations even were just weeks before ending it. If he wasn't a hack, that is. But he didn't, so he's a fucking hack.

>>149855525
>Kubo kubo-ing delusionalfags so badly
Made me giggle.

>>149857590
Don't forget he also took a lengthy hiatus last year or the year before, which was uncharacteristic for him.

I bet the kid dropped bleach too

>>149857973
Not sure if that is a Jump problem or a Japan problem.

>>149857973
I don't get why these fuckers can't do a 6 month hiatus to recover. Pump for 2 years, recover half a year.

>>149858115
Not everyone has Togashi's godly contract. Also it goes against their honor. Just look at Oda.

>>149857973
Welcome to Japan where you live to work and die. Even if you're a broken mess in the hospital you're still expected to at least try and continue your work. So think about it, all that work along with having to constantly get drunk and smoke with your bosses along with the expectation and stress of having a family. It's no wonder the average japanese dies in their 60's and it's no wonder a good chunk of them are embracing the single forever 2D over 3D life style.

>>149858156
Not for every piece of shit of course, but for the top sellers who had series going for >5 years. Man, productivity and health (physical & mental) could vastly improve if you gave them an oppurtunity to catch a breath.

>>149858156
>Togashi's godly contract
You mean the one where he puts his manga on long hiatuses due to his own reoccurring health issues? I mean I don't know what it was with Kubo's health exactly but for Togashi it's an issue that isn't going away and that directly affects his ability to work on manga.

>>149858172
>wonder the average japanese dies in their 60's

The average japanese has the highest life expectancy. What I don't get is how they're so far behind e.g. german productivity or general western science with their 24/7 workload.

>>149858256
>health issues
Motherfucker is jacking it to sailor moon and playing dragon quest.

>>149857973
This is more of a thing for Japanese people who work for more than 8 hours daily and not limited only to mangaka.

>>149859979
The boy never read the final chapter. Kubo got the letter like 4 years ago or something AFTER the boy died. He never saw the shitty final arc, probably just Fullbringer.

>>149860033
This, Kubo got the letter right after Ginjou's defeat. So it was the climax of the Fullbring arc, kid likely realized halfway through like when the Soul Reaper's showed up and the ratings were tanking that Kubo was being forced of his plans for the sake of popularity which is why he told him to write the manga how he wanted to rather than how his editors or fans wanted it and I guess Kubo held himself true to that if the ass ending with Rukia and Renji and Orihime and Ichigo is any indication. Nobody actually wanted those pairings. Not the fanbase, not the animation studio, not Kubo's bosses. Just Kubo.

>>149862301
That was Studio Pierrot's doing, not Kubo. And he stated in interviews already that IR are just friends.

Rukia also barely showed up in the later chapters of the manga and barely interacted with Ichigo. IR fans mostly just clung to false hope for a ship that had been dead for years. They were overly cocky and got BTFO. That's no one's fault but theirs.

It wouldn't even be so bad if Kubo made it clear that Ichigo was interested in Orihime romantically.

>>149862301
I can't really say I was rooting for Ichigo either toward the end.

>>149862372
It is Kubo's fault that Orihime is an awful character though

Ichigo was the worst in the final arc. We was like a doll tossed around, only reacting to shit and not having one proper fight.

He made Ichigo act differently around Orihime than he did with other people. He was gentler with her, compared to his other bro-tier friends. This doesn't mean he was in love with her the entire time, but there was a distinct difference in the way he behaved around her. He was more gentlemanly.

>>149862590
She's beautiful alright, but fucking Kon had more character to him

>>149857848
>he decided to escape and make Ichigo's future son his host
He can't possess people, where are you getting this from?

>>149862629
He treated Yuzu the same way, and sometimes even Rukia. The only real argument in favor of Ichigo having romantic feelings for her Orihime is him blushing at her tittydress. Kubo could have make him notice her more, anything, but gotta sell dem volumes and she's not that popular in nipland

>>149862372
>That was Studio Pierrot's doing, not Kubo
He could have very easily told SP his intention with regards to Orihime and Ichigo. He often praised the anime so he obviously didn't think they where misinterpreting his story too much.
>And he stated in interviews already that IR are just friends.
I'm not awere of this statement. The only one which I can recall is where he said they where "more than friends less than lovers" (Of course, this could have been mistranslated by biased shippers.
)which is ambiguous as fuck. Obviously they weren't lovers, but if their already beyond friends then what's the next step? Not saying I thought they'd ever fuck but I can see how you might interpret it that way.

>Rukia also barely showed up in the later chapters of the manga and barely interacted with Ichigo.
True, and possibly a form of damage control by Kubo but unfortunately the dye had already been cast. He could have done a number of things to kill off IchiRuki as well as that, like make Rukia blush at Renji or have Ichigo show some feelings towards Orihime. Best thing he could have done is have Ichigo refer to Rukia as an old hag or Rukia refer to him as a kid.

>IR fans mostly just clung to false hope for a ship that had been dead for years
Agreed but I cant blame them for preferring Ichgo and Rukia to Ichigo Orihime. Its was a far more interesting concept than hottie hero worships MC and then they get married.

>>149862629
Yuzu and Nel got the same treatment from Ichigo..

I don't understand this, Bleach was never good?

>>149862629
This is exactly the problem, though. This kind of thing just doesn't say enough about Ichigo's feelings. It's way too ambigious. Kubo had so much time to visibly develop their relationship and he just didn't, or maybe he tried and simply failed, being the poor writer that he is.

>>149862825
>>149862758
The fact that Ichigo was tender with Orihime as well as seeing her as a woman and not a bro should make it easy enough to comprehend. His bro-tier friends he would cuss and bicker with all the time. With certain few individuals he shows that side of himself on a consistent basis. With Orihime specifically he shows that side of himself consistently as well as there being hints that he likes her, like when his friends made fun of him for loving Orihime's cooking, offering to walk her home, acknowledging that she's a pretty girl.

Ichigo and Rukia have soft moments too, but they are usually because of something drastic happening. When things are normal they are back to bickering and yelling like always. Ichigo is consistently soft with Orihime even when there's nothing going on.

>>149863168

You're not making any sense though. There was nothing special about the way he treated Orihime, Ichigo is generally a kind man and treats women with respect. Tatsuki and Rukia are an exception because that's the kind of dynamic they started from, and in case of the latter there were moments when he was tender towards her too, as you said. Thing is, you could make an argument that Ichigo has some feelings for Orihime that he wasn't aware of, if it wasn't for the fact that he almost never thinks about her or generally pays attention to her.

He does pay attention to her though. And the way he treats her is distinct compared to other females, especially toward the end. The main issue with their development is Kubo not having the time due to health issues to flesh it out more than he did. He had to stick with bare basics of the plot instead since Bleach isn't a romance manga, but he still provided enough evidence that they could become a romantic couple down the road. The same way he did with Renji and Rukia.

Why not? Orihime is pretty much the only female human he likes except his sisters. It's not really a plot twist.

There is nothing surprising about them developing romantic feelings post-canon though. Kubo laid the foundation for that. The pairing isn't popular with many readers, but that doesn't mean they don't make sense.

And Kubo has finally given insight on why the quality went down over the years. He was ill. Many big name mangaka become ill and die young due to the physically demanding nature of their profession. Occasionally there are a lucky few who get to have long hiatus periods, like Miura and Togashi, but in general the professional artist life in Japan is a legal form of slave labor.

This is how Iwata died. You work and work to the point where your health deteriorates and you end up with some form of sickness or cancer (In his case, a growth in his bile duct). It doesn't help that the A-bomb contributed to most of what Japan's health problems lie at.

The little boy turns around and to Kubo's shock, the boy has to face. Kubo asks who the boy is one more time louder than before. The boy responds with "The heart".

That really isnt possible. Best case scenario is you go monthly and then you have breathing room.

If there was one thing established by that point is that Ichigo is a fucking prude. He absolutely loses his shit when a woman acts even remotely lewdly. It doesn't say anything about his feelings for Orihime.

>Pretty sure he didn't get raped by anyone for Rukia like he was raped by Ulquirra for Orihime.
He got fucking wrecked in SS on multiple occasions. We've seen Ichigo get through these kinds of challenges before, so again, this isn't anything that shows that he's romantically interested in her.

>If there was one thing established by that point is that Ichigo is a fucking prude. He absolutely loses his shit when a woman acts even remotely lewdly. It doesn't say anything about his feelings for Orihime.
That's a strawman argument, because he did show some resistence to Matsumoto, yet he didn't do that to Orihime.

>>Pretty sure he didn't get raped by anyone for Rukia like he was raped by Ulquirra for Orihime.
>He got fucking wrecked in SS on multiple occasions. We've seen Ichigo get through these kinds of challenges before, so again, this isn't anything that shows that he's romantically interested in her.
He had no hole in his chest and had to revive with his Hollow Powers nor did he go apeshit insane and rape Uryuu. Those situations arent comparable at all.

A common problem with a lot of shounen series is that the "romance" is very one-sided and the dude is completely oblivious until the very end where he suddenly "gets" it and hooks up with her just because she likes him. Blame the demographic and the people who eat it up. I don't even know why shippers exist for shounen series when that shit is so vapid.

Of course no one knows for sure but I've heard it has to do with the fact that obedience and repetition tends to be stressed more in East Asian countries. In the case of Japan in particular their economic miracle was partly the result of bureaucrats, businessmen, and politicians cooperating very well but the downside to that is corruption. Not like third world levels of course but its just that the dynamism of their system is limited when compared to the likes of the Germans.

"Romance" in shonen is nothing but light irrelevant subplot that only exists to bait the shippers, a massive and easily seduced community, into following the stories. Most romance in anime is dogshit anyway and the fanbase for such things have such crapstatic exptectations the authors would be better off giving up if only they didn't need the money so bad.

Iwata was above Miyamoto. Miyamoto thinks of himself as a peerless god. Do the math.

Not really. In Bleach it might've been good but in end it felt rushed and poorly executed. From what I remember of YYH Keiko was bland and a shit tier girl. Obviously DBZ never had any romance to speak of(but at least Krillin ended up with a qt blonde robot) and the romance in Naruto was fucking painful.

So what I'm getting from all of this is that you need to have excellent time management skills and be in tip top shape to be in this industry.
It's kinda like the gaming industry but more independent

>>149862372
>That was Studio Pierrot's doing, not Kubo. And he stated in interviews already that IR are just friends.

True, but that doesn't change the fact that he failed to actually try with Inoue's character in general and to get his actual point across with the anime staff.

I detest to bring up Kishimoto, but he at least let the seiyuu and staff who was going to win with anticipation. Well, except that one animator who shipped Naruto with Pink Shit.

Same with Toriyama and the more recent Trunks x Mai, even if (I bet) he wasn't responsible for scenes like the kiss in the anime, he definitely intented them for them for be together romantically.

Recently, I saw a weird photo of Kubo banging another dude or something. Is that a joke or is he really... you know... releasing his Zabimary into other dude's Las Noches.

>>149866222
It's real. The other guy you saw was Kishimoto on acting like a dog.

>>149866140
I disagree with everything you said. For an action genre aimed at young hotheaded boys, I don't have the expectation that romance will play out the way it would in a non action based genre. If guy and girl get along, have good chemistry, and are ultimately happy together then the rest doesn't really matter.

Read a tragedy, slice of life, shoujo, or josei if you want real romance.

>>149862840

It was decent once upon a time, but Kubo really messed up ever since the Mexico arc.

His health problems only complicated things.

Yeah I think I enjoy the entire potential family dynamic more than the pairings themselves.

>>149866284
I do read josei, SoL, and Seinen for better romance. In fact my favorite currently running series right now is a monthly romance seinen. I was just wondering if there was an action shounen that happened to also execute romance well.

>>149866379
Oh. Never mind then.

>>149866278
>Kishimoto on acting like a dog.
Wait. Kishi? How come? I mean, he ended Naruto in a way that satisfied everyone, so he isn't in that "I failed a 15 years old serial".
At least, shouldn't Kubo be a bottomdog in their games?

>>149866379
Kenshin and Buso Renkin did them pretty well, I think.

Yes I get that she's a sexy character. For example Kon always lusts for her breasts. I just don't like seeing her in actual sexual situations. It makes me uncomfortable and I go limp. I feel this way about Rukia too.

>>149858324
Wait. Are you implaying Naoko is doing racy cosplay for him, he is just fapping to the comics/anime/a doujin, or is he just fapping to the concept of his wife's massive financial success and how it has improved both of their qualities of life?

Why did Ichigo have to go from a really cool guy to a mamoru fetishist?

>>149866014
But Bleach's sub-plot with Orihime was badly handled, the FLOL speech was the only highest point in that shit, even the climax (if that can be called one) of "oh, I finally protected him" was underwhelming as fuck.

>>149866794

It served its propose of establishing the romantic ties between the characters. That's all it needed to do. Shonen manga isn't about getting readers super invested in romantic side plots. It's about watching MC on his journey from boyhood to manhood. That usually includes "becoming stronger" and romance plays a pretty small role to the story overall.

>>149866707

Kubo lost the direction his character was suppose to go, so he decided to spam the "mamoru" trait.

I think one of the worst things he has done was to make this character (I don't remember if it was Rukia or Urahara) imply that Ichigo "never truly changed" as in everyone were somewhat developed except him.

Mamoru has been a huge part of his character since the start. All Ichigo has ever wanted to do since he was little to protect people, and his mother's death solidified this desire into a full blown complex. When he finally obtains the power to protect people, that only fueled the flames.

>>149867085
yeah, what happened is that he lost all of personality.

No offense, but you have a strange idea about what shonen is. It's like you think it's a genre and that's not what it is.

Battle shonen, to be more specific. They all follow this same basic premise. Young boy grows stronger, overcomes obstacles, becomes a man, gets the girl.

>>149866794
This is my main problem with IchiHime and the way the series unfolded and ended as it realtes to Orihime. I actually like her so its not like her getting with Ichigo in the end is what bothered me. Its that it felt so inconsequential, almost like Kubo felt like he had to do something so he scrapped together a shitty epilogue chapter to tie up that loose end.

>>149867186
Just these two pages is better than all the romance between Ichigo and Orihime.

I could get that from Ichigo copy/pasting Rukia's speech about the talk to Isshin, but Kubo really failed to show anything new from him (aside of power ups) in the final arc.

>>149867285
I didn't say that it has no basis in canon, it obviously fucking does.

Doesn't mean it was well done though, it was very underwhelming in the end.

For me and many others. Like what you like, life is too short to let other people get in the way of your enjoyment.

But know that it certainly seems that most people who enjoyed the ending were just invested in what the outcome was instead of how it was done which is what matters to me and many others.

>>149867432
Going by that logical then defending any character of his means defending his writing.

>>149866707
To Ichigo's defense, everything wrong with Bleach can be blamed on Soul Society being incompetent, corrupt, or complacent in handling anything that threatens the world. Ichigo is just an average joe who got caught up in the Soul Reaper's unfinished business.

>>149867496
Just like the vast majority of people unhappy with the ending only feel that way because ir didn't happen. The vast, vast majority. You guys treat it like something so serious. I've lost ship wars too but I didn't let the butthurt completely take over my brain.

>>149867606
>Just like the vast majority of people unhappy with the ending only feel that way because ir didn't happen. The vast, vast majority.
I doubt it. The series was seriously flawed well before the ending but when its running you can always have hope. Once it ended the flaws of the serious just became apparent.

I know a lot of people who remained only did so for IR in the end. But many, many others remained for some other reason, probably a side character they liked or out of curiosity.

I would say a larger portion of the people who liked the ending where shippers fags invested in their ship just because it was such crap that a person like me, who didn't really care either, was still disappointed with how underwhelming it was.

Bleach didn't go out with a bang, it went out with a wet fart and those who enjoyed it just happened to like the smell of that wet fart.

Keep telling yourself that.

No the bleach ending wasn't triumphant, and the reason is because he didn't have time to write in everything he wanted to. I appreciate it for what it is, and I would have regardless of what ships happened. It was a happy ending and I like happy endings.

The fact that you are so invested in trying to make me see the ichihime as shit and not a good romance (something completely plot irrelevant) makes it incredibly obvious you're a closet ir shipper. You win some you lose some. They are drawings. You can write a fanfiction of you don't like the ending. You guys are so dedicated to trying to ruin the party for everyone else and it is so freaking sad.
