You saw and heard this on the anime, but can you make reference to which episode you are talking about, I doubt that Bleach happen in the past, there is no indication of any narrator in the manga, yeah you should check out the manga as a reference. If ever there was anything to argue Bleach happens to happen in present time, just look at their clothing as for example.
