Should have ended after Aizen was defeated. Once that arc was over he checked out and brought the soulbringer arc which was just canon filler Honestly, I was already done with the series before the Aizen arc even finished. Bad enough that Aizen was so overpowered that it made all of his Espada pointless, but the Hueco Mundo arc as a whole felt like Kubo was plagiarizing himself with how it was basically just the Soul Society arc all over again with a different coat of paint. I felt like if he was already that creatively bankrupt on the series then there probably wasn't any point sticking around for anything that came afterward. The story itself peaked at Soul Society and they tried to catch magic again with Hueco Mundo which wasn't bad. Ichigo/Grimmjow, Ichigo/Ulquiorra, Kenpachi/Nnitora and Szayel/Mayuri were all good fights The story finished at Karakura town arc. Everything was essentially wrapped up and you had Ichigo lose his powers to defeat Aizen. Yes, I'll put this in spoilers for people who didn't read the manga {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}Honestly, the only thing I am somewhat excited to see is Unohana transform back into Kenpachi persona

For me I kind of dug Bleach at the very beginning when it was basically Japanese swordfighting Ghostbusters but pretty much from the start of the Soul Society arc my interest just completely evaporated.

I really liked the Soul Society Arc and there were a few great moments and some fun new characters in the whole Arrancar-Hueco Mundo-Fake Karakura Town saga. But outside of the tons of filler arcs of the anime because Kubo took a huge break from the manga, the Fullbring arc in both manga and anime was pretty bad and felt more like a filler arc than the main story. Couldn't get into the whole Wandenreich storyline either, though I did like the flashback storyline about when Isshin first met Masaki and Ryuken.

My opinion has been the story should have ended after the War arc. No real reason why the story continues and the Fullbringer arc was glorified filler while the 1000 Year Blood Arc is okay but falls short of other arcs and just felt like it was dragging but at least it will get animated

Either that or he was just really burned out by that point. Even with the weaknesses of the Soul Society vs. Aizen's army saga, you had some fun and memorable new characters introduced like Nelliel, Grimmjow, Ulquiorra, Harribel, etc.

And good fights at that which is what the whole arc consisted of

"I've read Thousand Year Blood War Arc Bleach Fanfiction that had more engaging and compelling character and dramatic stakes."
-That's my weeaboo spin on a line from a Spectrum Pulse review I want to use someday. I'm hoping to find a series so bad it can justify it.

Hey, this is cool, even if reading through the Thousand Year Blood War arc was freaking dreadful at times. But, uh... if we're reviving an old anime series that didn't get to do the final arc(s) of the series they were based off, I know this funny series about a martial artist who changes gender when splashed with water that would be nice to see finished...

The new polish on the anime makes this look really good even if I think the arc is weak, I def look forward to watching it. Hopefully, they change some things about the arc since Kubo tried to make a big deal about him not getting like 2 more weeks to finish the arc
