User blog comment:Soulreaper1234/What do you think this is about the series??/@comment-1454424-20100518100922

Well if it helps you, here's what else I know about that.

Soul Reaper wearing Black Kimono - Rukia Kuchiki

The first character Kubo drew was Rukia and she was born from Kubo's desire to draw a Shinigami in kimono.

Taicho - Head Captain of Soul Society - does not exist in the beginning

When Kubo first thought of Soul Society, he didn't think about the hierarchy. The Gotei 13 and the captains came later.

Characters First - Story Plot then

Kubo says that he creates character en-mass and then based on their designs, looks, comes up with their back stories and then works them into the story. So with Kubo, the characters come first and then the story. Making Bleach character-centric, not plot centric.

'''Wish to Buy Bleach Clothes, But Cannot find it in Stores Ichigo - considerate and thoughtful - strength and weakness too'''

No clue about the above two.

Bleach into a love story - no way

Kubo was asked about all the romantic under-current in Bleach and Kubo said he doesn't have plans to turn Bleach into a romance manga by dwelling too much on the romantic aspects of the various relationships.

Yoruichi and Rangiku - they just do not care what people think of them

Kubo was asked who his favourite female characters were and he answered Yoruichi and Rangiku. He said he had a lot of fun writing stories with Yoruichi and Rangiku.

Chad - Mexican heritage - unintentional

Kubo draws characters first and them comes up with the back story. So he drew Chad first and then by looking at him, it occurred to Kubo that Chad looks a bit Mexican and so made him half-Mexican.

Quincies in White Clothing - Uryu Ishida Quincies arrows are for long range combats and has a 5 points cross Soul Reaper sword are for short range combats

This is all references to how Kubo came-up with the idea of the Quincy. He wanted the Quincy to be the enemy of Shinigami and be the opposite of them. So he made them dress in white (a theme he continued with the Arrancar) and made them use bows, which are long range, while swords a short range.

Kon a fake three dimensional flat face stuffed animal cheap and thrown away

This is the back story for Kon. Kon's plushie is a fake of a character from Kingdom Carnaval or some TV series like that, that is also Chad's favourite TV Show. The parents of a child bought it for the child but the child didn't like the fake and threw it away with the rubbish in a cardboard box, where Ichigo and Rukia found it.

Ichigo's dad Isshin would always be a Soul Reaper - there will be back story

Kubo said that from the start Isshin was suppose to be a Shinigami and Kubo plans to do a back story on him

Battle Scenes - Bored - Joke - Fun

Kubo said that when he gets bored writing battle scenes, he mixes it up by writing a joke scene.

Bleach - Few more story lines to be tell - will go on for a while

Kubo was asked when Bleach would end. He said that he still had a few stories to tell and so Bleach will be going for awhile.

Bleach - Believe in your talent - Enjoy what you have created

No clue again.
