I thought they might change it, so I wasn't really surprised. In order to use Fornicaras in the dub, they would have had to air Bleach at a really late hour (like 3 or 4 am) with a TV-MA rating. Would it be worth it? Of course not! Even though the Bleach dub gets away with a lot more because it is on basic cable, on basic cable you cannot use extremely explicit language unless it is obscenely late at night. Adult Swim is not HBO, they still can get away with a lot, but they still have restrictions. Viz uses the Japanese translations of the Arrancar Zanpaktou, so Fornicaras in Japanese means "Lewd Concubine," which basically means a having a harem, so Viz using La Lujuriosa, which means "The Lustful", basically means the same thing. This was less of choice Viz made to make it more family friendly, but in reality, they really didn't have a choice in the matter.
