BLEACH "NO BREATHES FROM HELL" Special 20th Anniversary Chapter (WSJ 36/37 2021)

That is wonderful news! I can wait hopefully he’ll get around to it soon!

Thank you for sharing, The Outlier!

I had a feeling that the story will continue but that it will take time to put everything together. Nevertheless, it is nice to see this confirmed.

I can wait. I am certain that the wait will definitely be worth it!

I believe the Hell Arc will be one roller coaster of a ride. I'm hoping a lot of old characters make a comeback, especially two certain captains besides the obvious three that we're expecting.

Considering that Kubo's spent 15 whole years with this story and these characters on his mind, it's not surprising that he has at least the general grasp of where the continuation of the story would be headed.

He also said that "it's hard to draw".

I think that it would be nice if we would get special chapters like the "NO BREATHES FROM HELL" every now and then, on a pace that suits Kubo the most.

Also, I would assume (or I would like to think) that he's busy collaborating with the animation team to make the final arc as good as it should be. There's also Burn the Witch Season 2 somewhere down the line.

Anyway, it would be nice if Kubo produced at least one special chapter per year.

Yearly? I don't want to wait that long!!

Pretty sure nobody wants to wait that long, but even yearly is better than nothing.

Yearly? I don't want to wait that long!!

I'd rather Kubo takes his time on the Hell Arc than rush it. He gave us 75 pages worth of material for the first chapter and that's a lot. Whatever he has planned, I'm sure it's gonna be grand.

I hope he's doing some chapters at his own pace on the side so his health won't decline if he ever has to go back to that schedule. Or he gets a really good assistant that can copy his style like how Toyotarou/Toyble does Toriyama

Tbh... I'd prefer him to continue and serialize Burn The Witch.

I love Bleach more than BTW, but BTW deserves its own spotlight, Bleach ended, let's get over it.

 

[The Outlier]

I am not sure where to exactly post this. Anyways, it's a milestone:

[Serialized in "Weekly Shonen Jump", the cumulative circulation of the series has exceeded 130 million, and even after its completion, "BLEACH" is still popular all over the world. ]

BLEACH is now 130 million+ in cumulative circulation.

Tite Kubo has answered another KO question related to continuation of Hell story. The answer is similar to the KO interview question he received at Bleach EX inauguration panel (already posted before).

It roughly *translates to this:

Q364 . (2022.08.01) I have read the one-shot! I got goosebumps because I hadn't felt this way for a long time. This is just a one-shot, is there going to be a sequel? I really want to read the sequel!

A364. I'm not good at drawing when I'm told to draw, so I'll think about it when I stop being told to draw.

*[Translated via ML tools.]

It seems everyone is wanting to have a continuation of the story. As he said before that he's been receiving these questions a lot and there is a story in his mind. But again, it comes to his choice of personal flexibility and mental convenience.

I think these questions are coming again and again because there is no big Bleach content going on right now like anime for instance, and when fans would be busy in anime, he might give it a chance depending how the anime is being received and practicality of the potential the story possesses.
