It was only normal that at some point he would be left out of ideas . But you didn't really get me now did you ? By support I don't reaaallly mean to never ever criticize him but people like you are like "This manga started to downgrade so I am not going to follow it or at least it should end because It now sucks and has no point in continueing" Wait dude you are NOT THE ONLY READER OF THIS MANGA your opinion is one of the many. It's absolutely okey to criticize him but in the end just say something like "i hope he gets it better next time" Because mate if i were Tite Kubo i would definetely check my fans opinions and stuff and would really give up on the manga if i saw more and more ppl like you that say its shit it should stop before it becomes even bigger shit. I think we should let him have his winning momment with the next 5-6 chapters and then comment weather the manga is falling apart or just rising in the sunset.
Also, what's wrong with the power boosts and things? Why do you keep braging on for that ? It is a part of the genre of the manga after all... It is what it makes us readers keep on following the manga. I mean if we are logically thinking we can pretty easily understand why these forms exist let me just give you and example.
Ichigo vs Ulquiorra, ichigo gets beaten to death and he stands up in a Vasto Lorde mode and kick his ass. I remember that on another forum many many MANY people started hating on that because of the next mega-jedai-power-boost... but it's nothng unexplainable really... Ichigo has a hollow inside that hollow evolves and gets stronger same as ichigo...that's all there is to it.
For the FGT mega power boost well after all in order to become that strong you have to accept the fact you are losing every bit ass of power so i find it not that strange really.
Now the thing i must fully agree with you is that the manga is slowing down both the anime and storyline but i told you im sure Tite is running out of ideas and hopefully this is thought over and has a purpose for this delay because as you said now 1 chapter of manga really is like 2-4 mins of anime episode time.
But I really think that you're taking manga too seriously but that of course is something that is part of your decision so I'm not in my place to tell you anything regarding that matter now am I ? But it's just my opinion as i said in my previous post im also reading manga a lot and especially bleach one from start to end and yeah i accept the failliures i comment on them but i always keep hope alive that it will all go better at some point... ;]

I thought you had nothing more to say?
Well again you're just telling us of negative opinion, exactly how to formulate our opinions... I'm not stopping you from praising Bleach... I will argue the point and my opinion but I will not tell you to stop praising it until any time frame given! So stop telling us not to complain about it...
I also don't need it to be explained to me thanks... I am fully aware that Kubo is running out of ideas... This is even more reason as to why it should end!
Now... everything in this universe... EVERYTHING has a lifespan... Lifeforms, buildings, stories, civilizations, celestial bodies.... EVERYTHING... If he has exhausted his ideas then all his manga is doing is clinging to a life that should have ended... When things get stretched beyond their natural lifespan.... they become a shadow of their former glory and linger on in a half quality existence...
I will also point out that the editorial department would not be pleased if Kubo was wasting such ideas as the bounto arc or the rouge zanpaktou arc on filler anime, when it could be used in the manga... So I doubt he spends much time on fillers if any at all...
Now for the second time... I take manga seriously as it is my field... To put it in a more simple way... I am a mangaka and studying other manga is integral to what I do... So yes... as it is a career choice for me... I WILL take it seriously... as would any other serious, aspiring, mangaka...
That is really all I will say on the matter... as trying to get the last word ends up in the involved parties repeating themselves... and I am loathed to do so!
Part of being a fan of an author's work includes critiquing the work. Bleach started out beautifully, it was wonderful. But in all honesty, it's NOT living up to its expectations.
Now I understand that yes, at some point you run out of ideas and there's not much you can do. But! It's also a sign of an exceptional and in-touch author to know when and where to draw the line to prevent such a great story from becoming just another book of jumbled pictures and words. And tite kubo has simply lost that touch with Bleach. Now it may be because his focus is somewhere else right now, he may be focusing on another story, or maybe the brilliant ideas he had for bleach simply are not possible anymore.
Either way, I really would like to see Bleach end to keep it from becoming another mess after getting such hype. Let's face it, Kubo didn't deliver the knock-out finishing blow everyone expected from him. It doesn't mean he's a bad author, he just faltered and it's time for him to recognize he made some mistakes and this way he can prevent a total disaster.
It's not that we're not fans of his work, we just expected more from such a brilliant man. As a fellow fan, you should be able to understand that and understand why we are so disappointed. Besides, maybe you and I like different aspects about Bleach. That doesn't mean any of us are better fans than the other. Its jut our opinions and that's that.
I completely agree... well put!!
