Bleach

[Scythiroth]

I just started watching the anime again because it seems like they are done with the completely retarded filler. Not too bad actually, good to see it back on track and hopefully not dragging things out too much......but if it goes too fast, it will be back in filler shortly. =( Oh well, I will try to enjoy it while it lasts.

Supposedly going to be a pretty long filler coming up made by Kubo regarding the spirits of the zanpakutos. Apparently he'll be revealing a lot of them and doing some original storytelling. This is supposed to take place after the Allon fight I think, or just as the Ulquiorra battle starts.

Kinda surprised nobody cracked a Soi Fon style "Prevent Osteoperosis with Caltrate" joke

[CrimsonAngel]

Sooo~ are we going to get this weeks chapter as well??

This sounds pretty interesting actually, especially if it's being written by Kubo. Hopefully no worries about contradiction to anything we've already learned then. Wonder if he might settle our epic debate that has been banned from discussion D:

It's too easy....I will pass.

But seriously, canon filler does sound interesting. I won't watch, but it's an upgrade over non canon filler.

You know what I meant -_-

PWCW: Now that Bleach has been going on for a bit, how do you keep the adventure and the story fresh?

Tite Kubo: I think it maintains a freshness because when I create manga, I don’t think about what’s going to happen—I just come up with an idea and let it flow. It’s a weekly installment, so I have a very short time to create manga, but the good thing is that because it’s short, I can come up with the idea and start creating it.

PWCW: Have you ever gotten yourself into a situation that made you say, “Uh-oh”?

Tite Kubo: I don’t really face that kind of situation because it’s a long story and sometimes I forget what’s happened in the past, but I read the previous volumes of Bleach and that usually helps me to create and have a new idea.

I laughed. Not sure who PWCW is at the moment, but clearly it's some magazine. The fact that he admits he doesn't remember the shit he writes is just... yeah.

Fucking L O L.

"I just make it up as I go along, every now and then I remember to toss some boobs at the guys, and just the other day I had this totally new idea to draw a panel with a character looking surprised as another one prepares to attack from behind them.

God I'm so stoned right now."

[Stiker]

Well...I guess he just confirmed what we all thought? lol

[Nuriko]

You have a link for that? I can't buy that as being legit without some actual source...Almost sounds like something someone made up to make fun of him...

[Akiyama]

Yeah. Here we go. It's actually a fairly old interview ( August of 2008 )

Kubo Comes to Comic-Con - 8/4/2008 3:07:00 PM - Publishers Weekly

PWCW: You mentioned that when you draw action, you choose the best angle in your head. How do you decide which is the best angle?

TK: I select the angle based on its looks. It has to be cool. And at the same time, it has to be realistic. If it’s not realistic, the reader cannot feel the pain. In a battle scene, it’s most important to make it realistic so that readers can feel the pain. I choose the action where if I were the character, I would feel the most pain.

If the flow of power or impact is not right, then the impact cannot be communicated to the reader. Otherwise it’s incomplete, and it needs to be perfect.

I found this funny considering all of the "surprise look behind you" panels that have been posted recently.

I'm going to give Kubo the benefit of the doubt and chalk that interview up to a shitty translation. The whole thing just gives off a whole "working to finance my weed" vibe to it. Probably doesn't even realize he's essentially copying his own story the more it goes along.

I found this funny just because the flow and power of the impact must be immense every time he shows a black panel. OH THE PAIN AND DESPAIR HE MUST BE FEELING FOR NOTHING TO BE SHOWN FOR THREE PAGES STRAIGHT BUT PITCH BLACK PAGES!

the image of Kubo in his "cool pose" which he does for all interviews only makes this more amusing
