Klub Outside interview facts
From compiled fan translations here.


 * Question #28: Kubo decided and had final say in all the new lore established in "BLEACH WE DO knot ALWAYS LOVE YOU" and "BLEACH Can't Fear Your Own World", the individual writers only determined the portrayal of Kubo's ideas.


 * Question #47: Gantenbainne Mosqueda is alive and considers Baraggan Louisenbairn to be a deity and formed a commune of other Arrancar and Hollows to worship the former Espada.


 * Question #50: Mayuri Kurotsuchi decides Nemu Kurotsuchi's hair and clothing styles to match his own, current style.


 * Question #69: Tōshirō Hitsugaya had already achieved Bankai when he had joined the Gotei 13.


 * Question #72: Magic from Burn the Witch uses a different ranking system (not based on power) than Kidō.


 * Question #73: Kubo visualizes Nelliel Tu Odelschwanck as having the largest bust size of all Bleach women.


 * Question #75: Yasutora Sado can reconcile his boxing career with his pacifism since, to him, boxing is just another martial arts sport and not truly violent.


 * Question #115: Kubo refuses to divulge (yet) who the first person to see Byakuya Kuchiki's Senkei technique was.


 * Question #117: Ichibē Hyōsube prevented Old Man Zangetsu from identifying himself as Yhwach to Ichigo during the Shattered Shaft training.


 * Question #120: Tōshirō Hitsugaya and Rangiku Matsumoto had recognized Isshin Kurosaki as their former captain when visiting Ichigo Kurosaki.


 * Question #133: It is theoretically possible for the Visored to achieve Resurrección like Kaname Tōsen did; as well as for them to use Hollowfication in combination with their Bankai.


 * Question #133: Ururu Tsumugiya and Jinta Hanakari are Modified Souls created by Kisuke Urahara.


 * Question #151: "Yachiru Kusajishi" is the Bankai manifestation of Nozarashi (who's true Spirit is an adult woman), and gained Shinigami-esque powers due to Kenpachi naming her as one. Yachiru's relationship with Nozarashi is comparable to Tensa Zangetsu and Zangetsu's relationship.


 * Question #155: Baraggan Louisenbairn deliberatly did not announce himslef as an Espada out of antagonism towards Aizen.


 * Question #158: Sōsuke Aizen was aware of Mimihagi's presence inside Jūshirō Ukitake.


 * Question #171: Older Zanpakutō (such as Katen Kyōkotsu) tend to have longer release commands than younger ones (such as Sode no Shirayuki).


 * Question #185: James was the real Sternritter "S" and Mask De Masculine was a manifestation of James' "ideal hero".


 * Question #192: Ikumi Unagiya is 33 years old.


 * Question #226: If Tōshirō Hitsugaya's Bankai would have lost all its petals before Hitsugaya had mastered it, the Bankai would have damaged him instead.


 * Question #238: If a Zanpakutō is inherited from a deceased Shinigami (such as Tōsen and Zaraki did) its name and powers will either be overwritten (as likely happened with Zaraki), or it will become an amalgamation of the two Shinigami's natural Zanpakutō (as seemingly happened with Tōsen).


 * Question #277: The reason Zangetsu and Tensa Zangetsu returned to resemble its old Shikai state after Yhwach broke it is because: "The dual Zangetsu is made up of "the blade" and "the scabbard". The correct form of a Zanpakuto is one that includes a scabbard and there are only two blades without one: Sayafushi and Zangetsu. The dual blade state fixes Zangetsu into its "correct form" while its Bankai state provides the scabbard, and what was seen after it shattered is the "True Zangetsu". The shattered scabbard was absorbed by Ichigo so if he wanted to he could split it back into two, but I guess that depends on Ichigo himself."


 * Question #278: Kubo intentionally chooses to remain vague wether or not Sōsuke Aizen and Momo Hinamori had a physical relationship.


 * Question #279: Adding on to Question #277, Hōzukimaru is one of those Zanpakutō that requires its scabbard to activate Shikai.


 * Question #281: Yhwach can see in advance which Schrift a chosen Quincy would recieve (he can already see the word on their soul), and thus selects Quincy to empower based on those criteria (both concerning the power and which letters are unaccounted for).


 * Question #283: In regard to the Digitally Colored Manga, Kubo did decide the colors used in it. However, Kubo sometimes forgot which colors he had chosen until he either checked his notes or was asked by the artists to review.


 * Question #286: The reason Uryū Ishida is immune to Auswählen is "a little complicated", but may be revealed in the anime adaptation of the Thousand Year Blood War.


 * Question #287: Kubo does not rule out that elements from Bleach: WE DO knot ALWAYS LOVE YOU may be adapted into the anime.


 * Question #288: Giselle Gewelle is indeed biologically male.


 * Question #290: The large spoon carried around by Kirio Hikifune is in fact her Zanpakutō.


 * Question #293: The profession of "Shinigami" and their duties of cleansing Hollows only came into being after the Gotei 13 were officially formed.


 * Question #294: Yasutora Sado got his tattoo in Mexico at age 9.


 * Question #301: The Medallions used by the Wandenreich are in fact an application of the Sankt Altar technique.


 * Question #303: Ganju Shiba's Seppa technique is a skill passed down by the Shiba Clan. It desintegrates Reishi particles in general and scatters them.


 * Question #309: Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez could achieve a Resurrección: Segunda Etapa if he trained hard enough.


 * Question #310: The Children's Park (Yumizawa) where Ichigo fought Hexapodus was named by the Ishida family.


 * Question #321: Byakuya's Ōken clothing was what protected him from the effects of PePe Waccabrada's Love Kiss technique. Kubo mentions that he actually had intended to explain it back then.


 * Question #322: According to Kubo, he initially drew Pernida Parnkgjas with a humanoid appendage in Chapter 599 because he intended Pernida to be able to take on a humanoid shape at will; only reverting back to the shape of a giant hand after becoming sufficiently agitated. Kubo mentions that, in hindsight, he could have scrapped that idea.


 * Question #325: Ikumi Unagiya has remarried and is no longer single by the time of the "NO BREATHES FROM HELL arc".


 * Question #327: Kubo states that he is not a fan of the "sympathetic backstory for villains to the readers can empathize with them" trope; hence why he refuses to reveal Aizen's backstory.


 * Question #328: When asked if Rangiku Matsumoto user her own Reiatsu to keep her breasts from spilling out of her low-cut Shihakushō (yes, really), Kubo replies that he initially imagined her using tape to keep them in place, but now states that he might use the "Reiatsu idea". (I'm not entirely sure if this is a joke or not...)


 * Question #331: Yoruichi Shihōin's ability to transform into a cat is a "technique" she invented herself, initially so she could sneak out her family's mansion.


 * Question #334: When asked why the databook 13 BLADEs. at some point refers to Rangiku having achieved Bankai, Kubo expresses shock and admits that it must have been an overlooked mistake.


 * Question #339: The true reason Ichigo's Bankai could not be Medalized by the Wandenreich was because it was already inherently Hollowfied.


 * Question #346: Hollows (and presumably Arrancar) can reproduce and create offspring conventionally.


 * Question #349: Wabisuke's weight-enhancing effects dissapear once the Shikai is no longer active.


 * Question #350: While Bankai users can activate Shikai without saying their Zanpakutō name, it is possible for non-Bankai users to activate Shikai without saying the release command if they're skilled enough to do so and even then it might mean the Shikai won't be at full power.
