If the original anime had continued would they have made an adaptation of the original war?

Or would they just ignore it since they can’t hamfist ichigo into the story to make him save SS and make up a different story where everyone can’t use their Zanpaktos?

Now that we know what, Shinji’s Bankai Actually is, I have a question, what was your original theory for it.

One of my theories, was that his inversion ability is extended even further, as both him and his opponent or opponents, are dragged into a mirrored world of inversion, as up becomes down, down becomes up, left is right, right is left, forwards is backwards, backwards is forwards, but there is a route to this world as it always constantly changes, It’s very nature causes it be inverted, before this inverted once again and again and again, so on and so forth as it constantly switches back-and-forth making it so that an opponent cannot move without moving opposite of what they were doing, essentially an infinite realm, in which they are trapped in a realm that they cannot move, additionally, any form of attack sent in a single direction will appear in behind them from another direction, causing any attack to hit them.

Three questions about Bleach lore

I'm currently watching Thousand Year Blood War part 1 for the first time, and I had a few things bugging my mind about the general lore of the series, if you need to give out spoilers to explain these questions, do so but try to hold them a little to not ruin the experience of this poor little first-timer.

  1. What is the connection between Hollows and Hueco Mundo, and how to they get there in the first place?

Hollows are human souls that spent so much time without being cleansed by a Shinigami that they lose their heart, right? How do they even enter Hueco Mundo in the first place if that is the case? Since Hollows are humans, they can't be literally born within Hueco Mundo, and they have to get there through a Garganta, but it's not like a Hollow can open a Garganta without any knowledge of what it is, so what even goes on here?

  1. What is Aizen's motivation?

His objectives all seemed too weird, He wanted to transcend his limits as a soul reaper, but why? To become the ruler of all souls? For what purpose? What was his vision for after he became a true king? Just being the strongest was clearly not his objective so what he wanted to do in the first place? We're supposed to believe that Aizen is a genious master planner but in the end we don't even know what his plan was in the first place.

  1. Yoruichi's cat form

I mean, come on, the only case of true shape shifting in this series is Aaronierro, the Nono Espada, if you're gonna make the hottest woman in all of anime you should at least explain everything about her, Kubo.

I wonder if tybw will end at cour 3?

The pacing seems wayy to fast. I wonder if it would end In cour 3. Maybe they are saving cour 4 for the novels. I hope this isn't true tho cause it would be very rushed that way

Does anyone else feel like the pacing for Cour 3 is glacial compared to the first two?

I find myself itching to get through all the exposition and I think it’s because the previous two cours flew through everything, at the expense of the slice of life and character interaction moments. Wish they had a 5th Cour so the first two would’ve had expanded fights and a slower pacing…

Need help

I recently completed CFYOW Light novels and wanted to know if there is anything else left to read. I have completed the manga too… In the last part of CFYOW , Urahara said something abt going to help Ichigo, who’s apparently in trouble. So I want to know if there’s something to read abt that part of the story. (Main reason is that, in a comment somewhere I saw someone saying something abt how Ichigo and Orihime falls in love, I soooooooo wanna read that)

Thank you in advance for anyone and everyone who helps.

Was Ichigo ever really in danger?

During the Arrancar arc, w/ Ichigo v The Visoreds, ichigo seriously fights 2 different people in his visions: White x Byakuya. But he takes fatal attacks head on by White's Point Blank Getsuga, Byakuya's Petal Rush, and White stabs him in the gut.

But like none of these moves seem to do like anything to Ichigo even though it's show to be really freaking powerful, which makes tensions kinda low cuz Ichigo is hardly bleeding from any of these moves. I was thinking that considering these were visions he wasn't really that in danger, but then White has that whole monologue about how he was gonna become the King, making me think that it was fr, and white was actually tying to kill him, so I'm confused.

Also why did whites stab not kill Ichigo but Ichigo could kill him w/ that same move? Was plot armor? I got that Ichigo activated his killer instinct but isn't white like pure killer instinct? So what's up w/ that?

Also also, why does white say he's just gonna take Ichigo over anyway if he loses control? I thought the whole point of the fight was that Ichigo gained control? Did I miss something?

Does any one know how kubo answers to the criticism about his work?

From the big 3, Bleach is the one that catches the most shit for its flaws.( with good reason)

But more than discusing the works flaws I am always interested on hearing the authors response to the criticism.

In any interview does Kubo ever answer the many criticisms of bleach ?

If you guys know please share
