The amount of fillers and the fullbring arc caused people to stop watching so they cancelled it. I hope it's coming back though, final arc in the manga would look so good animated.

The fillers were always out of place and kind of dull. But yes once the final arc is finished in the Manga Bleach Anime is slated to return to finish up as well.

If being top 15 isn't profitable then I feel bad for manga that are out of the top 20.
It wasn't that it wasn't profitable. It's just that they lost a huge fanbase after the espada arch and started with that Fullbringer Arc. Though the manga survived the chopping black the Anime didn't. Though The Manga is in it's final arch so no more bleach after the Quincy Arc

The storyline is trash. They told kudo to finish the manga first then maybe they will finish the anime. Right now in the manga, this arc is being drag out too damn much. shitty ass villains with dumbfound power.

It was canceled because the anime was catching up to the manga. They will probably start the anime back up once the manga is either finished or the manga is far enough ahead so the anime doesn't catch up.

Simple, Bleach manga lost its popularity towards the end of villian Aizen and people stopped watching the Anime, it no longer became prophitable to make and so they cancelled it to concentrate on anime that was.

Some people say it was because it was catching up with the manga but most of the reasons I have heard and the first reason I heard was because it was no longer profitable. Pick which one you believe for yourself.

Simple answer, Kubo shot himself in the foot as usual.

Will it come back? A lot of people think so, but I doubt it. Bleach manga has dropped even more in popularity and I see no hope that a manga that is even more unpopular than it was then will get its anime back that was cancelled through lack of interest.

Bleach fillers where actually not that bad. It's single fillers were often funny and its arcs where about as enjoyable as a film so not bad.

Bleach was incredible but it was ruined by the arrogance of its creator who doesn't deserve to ever be given another shot at a manga in my opinion.

As people have said, it is due to ratings. I wouldn't say it wasn't profitable, it wasn't as profitable as replacing it with another show. This happens a lot in network television and many shows never come back. Rock Lee spin off replaced the time slot and may have made more money, I do not know what is in that time slot currently. However, Naruto is coming to a close in the next year, it will be interesting to see what show takes Naruto's spot. Will it be Bleach, doubt it, but they will need to replace it with a high profile show as that time slot has made TV Tokyo a lot of money via Naruto. If they do it right, they can advertise that bleach will be taking that slot after naruto and they may get many more viewers if they do it that way. More people will be likely to watch it if it is in that time slot. Like I said, IDK, but it will be interesting to know what takes over because it had a reputation to uphold when it does.
