Tite Kubo explains how his BLEACH artwork evolved in a new BLEACH Artbook JET 2026 interview, from traditional lettering and illustration to digital art and No Breaths From Hell.
This week on Bleach Boys, we break down Kubo’s creative process, his approach to manga covers and group illustrations, and the results of the massive fan poll where 95,000 people ranked their favorite BLEACH artwork.

We also discuss the final BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War episodes being promoted across Japan, new comments from Kazui Kurosaki and Ichika Abarai voice actors Azusa Tachibana and Ayaka Ohashi, BLEACH at Jump Festa 2027, and the BLEACH Mirrors High closed beta survey. We get into the gameplay, visuals, cooperative features, character progression, UI problems, and what Bandai Namco should improve before launch.
Finally, the Discord takes BLEACH worldbuilding around the world. Could America, Mexico, Africa, Romania, or even the ocean have their own Soul Society branch and Hollow mythology? We explore cryptids, Arabian Jinn, sirens, vampires, regional folklore, and the possibility of a Leviathan Vasto Lorde.
Which Kubo illustration deserved first place? Where would you build another Soul Society branch? Let us know in the comments and join the Discord to continue the conversation!
