Sorry if I wasnt clear. I just dont understand the hang up on Bleach. Why not start your own unique story? You already seem to be incorporating elements from other series so why not just make it a new setting where you can create your own story/setting/characters without people getting annoyed over the tiniest change to their favourite character (which they will, I've seen enough winging about how Kubo took a character in a direction that fans didnt like at all)? Change Rukia's/Byakuya's/Ichimaru's hair colour for example and you'll be dragged down an alley and beaten to a pulp by certain fans!

One of Bleach's greatest strengths (and at times weaknesses) is the depth in variety of its characters and I think this idea weakens this. Making people have same hair colour also makes them less distinguishable from each other which may an issue when you have a large cast.

If you want to go down this route then fine, good luck to you. I just think it'd be a better bet to start afresh rather than reimagining Bleach. Whatever way you go with it, the best of luck with it and dont forget to have a bit of fun along the way. Some stories take themselves to seriously and arent enjoyable because of it. Though if I was to change just one thing about Bleach it would be the poor quality of many of the jokes, some are lost in translation but others either culture differences or just annoying not funny.
