"you shouldn't try changing people/s opinion, especially the one you don't know on the internet"
before I realized this I already argue with people on twitter and facebook for 10+ year 🤣 I need to listen to my parent more often
Considering that the events of BLEACH: Mirrors High take place after the end of the Thousand-Year Blood War, I noticed something interesting about the captains' meeting shown in the opening.
It seems that Iba and Lisa had not yet officially become captains at that point. In other words, they were carrying out the duties of captains without formally holding the rank.
This might explain why Iba still has the lieutenant's badge on his arm, while Lisa isn't wearing the captain's haori that we see her wearing ten years later.
We also know from the novels that, following the war, the Gotei 13 suffered from a severe shortage of officers. If I remember correctly, they even started recruiting students from the Shin'o Academy before they had officially graduated, although I'm not entirely sure about that detail.
But the point is that the Gotei 13 desperately needed new blood, which could also explain why Kubo designed more than 13 new characters for the game.
Of course, these characters were primarily created to serve the game's story and gameplay, but from a lore perspective, their introduction actually makes a lot of sense.
Zanpakutou as a power system is so fun to me, the moment the Bleach reveals its new captains, I start wondering what their Bankai might be, and of course, to what extent Rukia has developed hers after all this time.
@CulturedSouls@JohnDanielsdal Yeah how tf did they say that Soi Fon hate the boys when she is so hurtful of Yamamoto death /she ok to work with OMAEDA of all people is enough proof of that lol
TITE KUBO JUST SAID SOMETHING GENUINELY BEAUTIFUL ABOUT MANGA THAT MORE PEOPLE NEED TO HEAR 😭🔥
He explained that creators like Gege and Gotouge have told him BLEACH influenced them…
but he doesn’t see Jujutsu Kaisen and Demon Slayer as “copying” his work.
Because Kubo himself was inspired by Saint Seiya.
The Gold Saints left such a huge impression on him that you can see that DNA in the way the Gotei 13 Captains were structured.
"That's how creativity evolves. Each generation of creators absorbs ideas from the works they admire, reinterprets them through their own perspective, and transforms them into something entirely new. That's what influence has always been."
