を終了し 短いシリーズを描いて その後もうひとつシリーズを描くそうです。 破面篇がもう4年で 主人公なのに一護は JC2巻分全然出てきてないのは意図した事でないらしい。 ストーリーは大まかにしか作られず細かい点はライブ感を大切に描かれているとか。 同じ様な話は 以前ジャンバンでもされていましたが 短いシリーズがとても気になります
Here's what's written:
Got it from iareawesomeness.wordpress.com
+ The current arc is soon on climax, it will end by the middle of 2010 (The current arrancar arc has been going on for 4 years)
+ Kubo’s originally not the type to work out a plan, so he still hasn’t decided on a concrete end to the arrancar arc. (as of 2009 when this interview took place)
+ But from this onwards, he’s told people there’s to be 2 more arcs and then Bleach will be OVER.
+The next arc is a short one, and there’s an initiative for the next one.
+ There was a large response for Ulquiorra’s death around the world. (also Kubo got a letter from a Russian fan, since it was in russian Kubo couldn’t understand it, but he says Ulqs name/Kanji was all over it).
+ He didn’t declare whether Ulquiorra was alive or not. (i’d think he isn’t alive since he’s been reduced to dust 0_0 )
+ The popular ones among the vizards are Hirako and Hiyori
+ Hirako is really easy to draw (art wise)
+ There was a meeting yesterday months ago at the hotel regarding the newest Bleach movie.
+ I want to create a good one after resting for 1 year. (WTF does this mean +_+)
Saw this Interview with Tite Kubo at www.bleachanime.org
Q: Speaking of Ichigo's relationships with his friends, there seems to be a love triangle between Ichigo, Rukia and Orihime. Do you delve more into this in later volumes?
Tite Kubo: (laughs) I get asked about that a lot! I don't want to make Bleach into a love story because there are much more exciting things about their personalities and things that they can do instead of getting into the romance aspect of their relationships.
Q: Is the Kon doll based on anything from your childhood?
Tite Kubo: I wanted to create something that looks fake, that looks like something that was just random things put together. Normally you don't have a sewing line in the middle of a stuffed doll's face unless it's done to make the face look more three-dimensional. But look at Kon! His face is flat so that line is unnecessary -- so I kind of like that fact.
Ichigo and Rukia first find Kon on the street, so I made up a back story about how he got there. At a festival, a child wanted a stuffed animal, but since the one that he wanted was too expensive, so the parent bought a cheap one instead. The child didn't like it and threw it away, so that's why the Kon doll was found on the street!
Q: One thing your fans love about your manga is that you always keep them guessing. Do you plan very far ahead how your characters will interact with each other, and the various plot twists you throw into your stories?
Tite Kubo: After i finished drawing chapter one, I already knew that Ichigo's dad Isshin would be a Soul Reaper. At the time, I didn't plan on having leaders in the Soul Society, so I didn't plan on him being one of the leaders.
Q: Will you feature a back story about Isshin?
Tite Kubo: Yes, I will draw it!
Q: You're already up to 33 volumes of Bleach -- how much longer do you think this story will go?
Tite Kubo: I can't really say how long this story will be by the time it ends, but I have a few more stories that I want to tell, so this series will go on for a while. (laughs)
Character summaries by kubo-san:
Kurosaki Ichigo
When Ichigo goes to the hair dresser, people ask him about his hair color and since he hates that, he doesn't go to the hair dresser. Normally, Yuzu cuts it.
Kuchiki Rukia
Sometimes people ask me this, in book 5 they announced the semester's final exam scores and regarding Rukia's rank, out of 322 people in the 1st grade, she's 302nd. Besides Japanese, she flunked most of it.
Kon
The plushie body of his is the fake copy of the main character of the popular TV show, "Carnivor Kingdom" named "Ponkichi". It was a prize from the shooting game in the Karakura Town Festival.
Inoue Orihime
Tied with Ichigo, her face is the hardest to draw. She's going to be a very important character later on so, I want to get used to drawing her faster.
Sado Yasutora
He likes music so he rarely watches TV, but the only program he likes the "Carnivor Kingdom" that starts at 8 AM on Sundays. He likes it so much that he bought the DVDs for it.
Ishida Uryuu
The TV program he likes is Don Kanonji's "Bura-Rei". It's not mentioned in the comic, but in chapter 29, the shadow that tried to jump in before Ichigo was Uryuu.

Urahara Kisuke
The rare candy sold only in Urahara shouten, "Space candy". From the name, it sounds like it'll have some strange taste, but inside is only a coca cola tasting candy.
Shihouin Yoruichi
Yoruichi-san cannot drink so much alcohol. She likes milk the most. When she's tired, first she starts with milk. As long as there's milk, she's in a good mood.
Zangetsu
Zangetsu was the most difficult to decide for the appearance. After nitpicking on his hair style and his clothes, the only thing that remained from the original sketch were his shades.
Shiba Ganjyu
He looks good with goggles, so every time he came out with new clothes, I put a new goggle hanging from his neck, but by the next week I forget to draw it.
Ichimaru Gin
In my opinion, I was trying to draw him all creepy since his first appearance, but for some reason he is a man who is very popular amongst women. I envy him.
Kuchiki Byakuya
Within the seireitei, there're only four major noble families including the Kuchiki family that are considered high class noble men. Besides them, the life style of the other nobles are not much different from normal city people.
Zaraki Kenpachi
Tied with Tousen Kaname, out of the BLEACH characters, he has the hardest hair style to draw. I think I'll continue to regret eternally for giving him that hair style.
Hitsugaya Toushirou
He's from the West Rukongai 1st area "Jyunrinan". He is actually friends with Jidanbou and was the one who taught him the "city rules".
Abarai Renji
All his sunglasses are from Seireitei's popular glasses store "Silver dragon fly glasses store" (megane no gin tonbo). Every time he wears it, he gets it broken, but that costs half a year worth his paycheck.
Kira Izuru
All of Seireitei's shinigami are all considered "nobles", but it also has a high, middle, and low class and Izuru is from a low class noble family. He's had a pretty tough time.
Hinamori Momo
I had a tough time trying to decide her name. The name "Hinamori Momo" was decided right before drawing the official comic. During the sketch stage, she had a totally different name.
Yamada Hanatarou
A rather pitiful Hanatarou whose birthday lies on April Fools. Every year, on his birthday a bunch of people keep tricking him the entire day."

I get so GAGA over Ichiruki... Dx awww.... Kubo-san, please let them be together
and I am also so happy that I finally found Kubo-san's twitter account.... xD
But, In one interview, he said that Bleach would only be 2 more arcs away and then it's all over... Dx Oh please hear me out Kubo-san!!!!
Bleach had been part of my life ever since 1st year college in 2007 and now its 2010, it really had influenced me so much!!! Kubo-san please....
Thank you very much!!!
xD
ICHIRUKI FTW!!!
Parody of chapter 423...
I'm sorry can't help it!!!
I really needed to express it...
