"True, Kubo wasn't entirely at fault for this, but it is his fault for not making Bleach into something people wanted to see. I would have remembered Bleach much more fondly if it had ended after the Fake Karakura battle. "

First off, this is again not Kubo fault it's SJ, also "what people wanted to see"? No, fandumbs (as opposed to critics) almost never have the best opinions in mind are usally just trolls who completely miss the whole point of something, have the memory of goldfish and have very low attention to detail, you do realize that the resaon the Arrancar arc dragged on so long was BECAUSE of the fanbase, right?

They (SJ editors and the Fandumb) clearly how no idea how complex stories work, they are supposed to take there time and develop things, I don't see people complaining about One Piece taking things slow and steady (and it's only 65% done), so this is just hypocritical.

The first arc of Bleach was actually supposed to be longer, Kubo wanted to give more development to the characters such as Tatsuki, who obviously was supposed to be one of the main cast if you look at all the build up, but SJ cut a lot of this to rush Kubo towards the Soul Society arc to push the Shinigami merchandise, which took a turn for the worse when the Fandumb instantly latched onto the Shinigami, and started treating them like Dracos in leather pants and glossing over their evil actions, which made the editors force Kubo to essentially have them steal the spotlight and (in terms of characters) gloss over all their previous actions and crimes (most notably Mayuri, one of the series biggest complete monsters, whom I'm angry has received absolutely no comeuppance), and made the Arrancar arc go on longer than intended by forcing Kubo to show EVERY SINGLE FIGHT (regardless of it's relevance) IN IT'S FULL DRAGGED OUT INTIRETY, it was supposed to be shorter.

Either be patient and let a story run the way it's supposed to, or be a whiny demanding jerk wad that's responsible for a rushed story with a cluster bomb of unresolved loose ends.

So yeah, the fanbase really have no one but themselves to blame, it's stuff like this that lead Neon Genesis Evangelion to devolve the way it did by having WAY too much fan involvement (that and a director's crumbling mental state). As one person put it: "Fans are clingy complaining jerkwads who will never ever be grateful for any concession you make. The moment you shut out their shrill, tremulous voices the happier you will be for it."
