However, there was an interview some years ago (before the Fullbringer arc) where Kubo said there was a short arc and then a long arc to come after the Aizen story wrapped up and he said that Bleach was only about half way through at the time (referring to years not volumes iirc). But you should take such things with a pinch of salt as plans change, especially over several years, and editors can push manga-ka to hurry up (see Ashido being cut out of the manga), or things could drag out more than intended. It is just a generalization, not an exact timeframe.

Ashido is a Filler character. And i didn't said that it is a specific date. I said that it could end during that time and i didn't count the holidays and the Hiatus dates to come. Is a guess.
