Taguchi's twitter post

BLEACH The Thousand-Year Blood War arc has finally wrapped up its broadcast, and as I watch Pierrot Films shifting their production setup toward other projects, a sense of "it's really over now" finally wells up in me.

It was around 2019 when I got involved, so considering that, it's been a full 7 years with BLEACH The Thousand-Year Blood War.

We decided to meet with Mr. Kubo, have in-depth discussions, and create it together, so I wrote the script up to episode 4. Rather than simply copy-pasting the original work, we established a basic policy of "reproducing the impressions from reading the original work." I was truly grateful that Mr. Kubo understood the differences between the manga and anime mediums and agreed with this policy.

I think there must have been some concerns, but I was very impressed that you entrusted us with various anime adjustments. I remember being really happy when, later on, Mr. Kubo told me "That was good" about the part in episode 2's雀部 funeral scene where we omitted Byakuya's narration and focused solely on the image of雀部 serving under Yama-jii—that was a bold anime direction.

Starting from episode 5, the scriptwriting baton was passed to Hiramatsu-san. He wrote most of the 50 episodes. Including his approach to the original work, he completed them with astonishing perseverance and writing skill. Hiramatsu-san is also writing the app game "Mirors High."

The animators' tremendous efforts in supporting the content, which became increasingly expansive with each episode, were truly remarkable. It was the first time a situation arose where people gathered because of the work's name, and it made me feel the power of the original work anew.

Actually, the second cour was produced under a situation where the schedule was quite tight and pressing. Even so, I remember that thanks to skilled animators who joined us at the appropriate places, we somehow managed to make it to broadcast.
>>
>>291960392
As Pierrot, the production studio, maintaining quality consistently across all episodes must have been quite a challenge under the previous system, I think.

Even so, I believe it deserves praise that they never once said NO to our demands and confronted the improvements head-on. I think the skill and spirit of the production producer, Tominaga-san, have carried over to the present, enabling us to complete the production.

Since the anime-original segments that increase significantly from the latter half of the second cour are discussed in various places, I’ll skip over them here.

I think the torrent of full-episode color scripts and the diverse scene colors by Goda-san, who was also collaborating with us on color design for this project, are some of the highlights of this work, but the scene colors created across all 50 episodes apparently number as many as 480. Likewise, the collaborative *Sohō no Fukuinshi* had all 50 episodes but only 120 colors. What the heck, can't someone nominate this for Guinness?

The presence of the chief production supervisor was indispensable for maintaining quality. Since we had to revise more than 350 cuts per episode, we enlisted three people to handle that volume. They were Hasegawa-san, Komatsubara-san, and Takayanagi-san.

Without these three, the characters would never have achieved such stability.

The gathering of the general animation director's name in the end credits of episodes 49 and 50 is thanks to Hasegawa-san's consideration. He suggested that we should include all three names.
>>
>>291960450
Hasegawa-san is putting in a Herculean effort in the fourth cour, handling key animation for episode 43 all by himself, over 40 cuts of key animation in episode 45, and serving as chief animation director plus key animation for episodes 46 and 49. He’s taken on the whole sequence of key animation from Orihime staggering along bloodied in episode 45 to Sengetsu shattering and taking down Yhwach in episode 49. That’s an insane workload while also doing chief animation director duties!

Anyway, the achievements of these three individuals cannot be fully captured even if I write about them. They were simply amazing, and watching each of them confront Mr. Kubo's artwork and gradually come to terms with their own brush was incredibly heartening even from the sidelines.

On the production side, we had the participation of truly wonderful people, but I was especially helped by Mr. Zheng, Mr. Chen, and Ueda-kun. They supported the work by participating in all cours. What stood out was that Ueda-kun's storyboards required the fewest instructions from Mr. Kubo. Fewer than Taguchi's (T▽T)

Since the conversation turned to the production, let me touch briefly on episodes 45 and 49, which Taguchi was in charge of. Anyway, episode 45 was incredibly tough. Episode 49 also had an abnormal amount of content, to the point where I marvel at how it even took shape. That said, we relied heavily on the animators' skills, so from a directorial standpoint, once the storyboard was complete, what needed to be done was already set in stone.

Episode 45 was tough because it was packed with acting scenes, so the relentless fine-tuning of those nuances was a real challenge. It wasn't just about making things move; the director's job was to capture the exact nuances required in the visuals. For this, I was greatly helped by everyone at Studio KAI and animation director Mr. Katayama. Of course, Mr. Komatsubara too.
>>
>>291960491
In a sense, it might have been the episode with the highest demands. The production period exceeded a year, so one of the challenges was how to craft it as meticulously as possible within that time. On top of the complex 3D and processing involved, the animation workload ranked quite high compared to the first 45 episodes.

By the way, the video for episode 45 used about 23,000 frames. (Episode 49 also ended up with roughly the same number or even more. This is an estimate based on the frame count up to the midpoint, as the exact tally hasn't been finalized yet.)

The one who was handling this was Ms. Uemura, who served as both production desk and production coordinator. Though she couldn't be called highly experienced, she worked tirelessly every day, running around desperately to make the work better. I believe we were able to produce this many video segments thanks to Ms. Uemura's hard efforts. I'm grateful to her for not being deterred by Taguchi's unreasonable demands and seeing it through to the end.

The production staff of BLEACH Squad were working hard. I think it was intensely grueling work, but it was impressive how everyone tackled it head-on and kept creating. Over the course of six years, I felt the passage of time as everyone's roles changed or advanced. Hirayama-san, who was in settings production at the start, went through the desk position and is now a producer. It's a great team.

And the person we must be most grateful to on set is Director Murata. I think it was truly tough starting from the third cour. You demonstrated your skill in those crucial episodes. I feel that without Mr. Murata, things would have been quite difficult, including on set. Thank you very much.
>>
>>291960535
Though it has become quite lengthy, the journey of producing BLEACH: The Thousand-Year Blood War Part 7 over seven years was by no means smooth sailing, but being able to run through it to the end alongside the main staff was a truly valuable experience. I extend my heartfelt thanks to Mr. Tite Kubo for entrusting us with such a precious original work, and to everyone at Shueisha.

BLEACH WAS THE BEST EVERーーー!!!!!!

all were shit. renruki had history but no emotionally driven moments outside of their shared past. ichihime were nakama and they had some moments but its driven by her onesided love that ichigo never notices. naruhina is kind of the same of ichihime but they arent nakama but naruto acknowledges her support and holds her hand on the battlefield so we can argue he started to romantically notice her at this moment plus they have a movie. sasusaku was a onesided mess but the women really loved it cause of the whole damaged gloomy boy x good devoted girl trope going on. none of this ships were mutual in the original works.

I was never into any of the Big 3, and I actually TRIED to like Bleach but just couldn't. However, I feel a little sad at its conclusion, it's like the headstone of my teenage years finally being put on a decade after they actually passed. Is it actually worth it to watch it? Consider that I love YYH to bits but couldn't get into JJK either.

Either way, I hope the Hell Arc gets serialized at some point and that it's long and consistent as all fuck. Maybe it's because I like Togashi that I feel some kinship with all the cockteasing you guys have endured for 10 years.

i read all three. yyh is really good even if it does drag a bit at the end but thats cause togashi was forced by his editors to continue the story cause of popularity. jjk is fine, i think the final arc is extremely weak but thats just my own opinion and i know a lot of people who love it. bleach has highs and lows but the last two arcs definitely have more lows than highs, its also the longest of the three. yyh > jjk > bleach and i say this a big bleachfag. as for mcs, yusuke MOGS.

Absolutely. The first half will feel very dated and you'll find tons of cliches, but you have to understand it and DBZ basically codified what a battle shonen is. Plus, Togashi's insanity is always entertaining. If you like it, definitely also give HxH a chance

It's not complete though. There's so much that was left unexplained, and besides, hell was introduced before quincies or arrancars were. You can't leave a hell dimension unexplored in a series about the afterlife.

Renji and Rukia were already in love when they were students, the scene where Rukia tells Renji she is going to be adopted is very clear about it.
Rukia never felt romantic love for Kaien, he was like a brother to her, like the substitute of Byakuya, who barely looked at her.

Bleach is just poor man's yyh with swords and way worse and thinner characters, and jjk is poor man's bleach/hxh with even worse and thinner characters

Bleach is better than all nushounen but I was here laughing at it getting canceled 20 years ago. It's just relative. Demon slayer jjk csm are all garbage compared to rk yyh dbz hxh etc. The anime final arc is much better than the garbage trash excuse of a final arc the manga was though, that's for sure

Kubo said this in his last interview, in the hypebeast magazine:

>The hardest times were when I was physically unwell but still had to keep drawing.

I imagine things are different today, but in my time, taking a hiatus simply wasn’t something that happened very often.

Speaking of Saint Seiya, one thing I found interesting is how The Gotei 13 was inspired by the 12 Gold Saints and similarly to the Gotei, the Saints were massively popular as early as their introduction, however unlike Kubo, Saint Seiya's author Kurumada actually had the balls to kill off all the Gold Saints in the final war of that manga regardless of how popular they were, unlike Kubo who couldn't even kill off Byakuya

you're the one who said Bleach characters are lightspeed multi galaxy level which it's in fact not true. I'm not a powerscaler but I know how ridiculous Dragon Ball is. During the early volumes with kid Goku they are blowing up the moon with 180 power level. By the time they get to the Buu saga they are (and this is not an exaggeration) BILLIONS OF TIMES stronger. I swear most people just don't understand how retarded Dragon Ball is. Remember how I said the 180 power level guy blew up the moon at the start of the series? Yeah, he would solo Yuha. Master Roshi would literally solo the Bleach verse at 180 power level. He was near lightspeed already and could basically blow up the planet. Just never say anything like that again. Nobody in Bleach could ever touch Buu saga Krillin.

the overall captains' power level dropped so hard over the course of the story they might as well have had a DEI policy imposed on them

Yamamoto to Kyouraku = NEUTRAL
Soifon = NO CHANGE
Gin to Rose = DROP
Unohana to Isane = DROP
Aizen to Shinji = DROP
Byakuya = NO CHANGE
Komamura to Iba = DROP
Kyouraku to Lisa = DROP
Tousen to Kensei = NEUTRAL
Hitsugaya = NO CHANGE
Zaraki = NO CHANGE
Mayuri = NO CHANGE
Ukitake to Rukia = DROP

>>Unohana to Isane = DROP
>this one is neutral because Unohana never fought any enemy
She could have though. Her power level was so high even Aizen knew better than to directly fight her, preferring to flee instead. He had no such qualms about fighting Komamura, Hitsugaya, Shinji, Yamamoto, Gin and Isshin, all of whom he defeated with being levels of ease. Think Aizen would fear fighting Isane? lol

Even just in terms of healing she's probably still some way off Unohana's skill. Definite drop in terms of power level.

>>291967840
Byakuya never showed any growth in battle skill. He was the same old same old, never showed that he had become more powerful than he was all the way back when he fought Ichigo.
Hitsugaya also barely showed any growth, still essentially a jobber at the top level.
Of those 3, only Zaraki grew to any assistant degree, and that took Unohana's sacrifice, and even then he still couldn't beat Gerard, only Auswaehlen saved Zaraki from being killed.

Soifon also didn't show power growth.
Mayuri did, I'll give you that. Though even that was primarily driven by advances in the lab rather than on the training ground.

He's not wrong. If you kill/banish off a character you lose a lot of possibilities in that character as a way to push the plot or merchandise. If you kill a guy off and it didn't matter or amount to much then a lot can go wrong in the aftermath.

Wouldn't that be risky for the magazine since you'd basically need to either have an additional author on hand AND Togashi you need to pay or basically have a slot more or less empty and needing some wau to fill the gap?

Apparently Mirrors high shows the aftermath of the final battle. Are they game cut scenes or proper 2d hand drawn scenes? If it's the later I hope someone edits it into the final episode and dumps on Nyaa.
