Shonen anime are marketed toward a young male audience, and those stories tend to follow precocious heroes and focus on adventure and battle. If there are any romances, they tend to be a subplot, at best. There are some exceptions, like InuYasha, where the plot is driven by a few romances.

Male love interests in shonen anime vary in personalities and character types. Some are pale-haired kuuderes with cool and polite exteriors, and deep emotional interiors. Some are explosive tsunderes, like the reformed villainous prince Vegeta, who can always be relied on for entertaining drama, especially if their love interest is nearby.

(Welcome to Ani-time Ani-where, a regular column dedicated to helping the uninitiated understand and appreciate the world of anime.)

While there are countless types of stories told in the anime medium, there is one genre that is king: the action shonen. It's the most popular genre there is, but it's not without problems. Shows like "Naruto" and "Dragon Ball" tend to follow a very specific formula without much change, which means even the slightest variation on the formula — like making the protagonist a 30-year-old and not an angsty high schooler — makes for something exciting.

One of the biggest tropes of the genre, one that "Dragon Ball" perfected and made its bread and butter, is the idea of training to fight. Specifically, it is the idea that training is everything, and that fighting is the purest form of living. "Dragon Ball Z" has Goku constantly abandon his wife and kids because...

The following contains spoilers for various manga/anime franchises.

The new Bleach anime has introduced the most powerful and consequential villain yet, King Yhwach. He is the leader and father of all Quincy, and he's the one who aims to topple the Soul King to create a new world order where the Quincy tribe may live in peace. That calls for some strong leadership and tactical skills, and Yhwach delivers, leading the charge to defeat the Royal Guard before absorbing the Soul King himself. Yhwach's simple but effective master plan has paid off, and he's on the cusp of ultimate victory.

King Yhwach is clearly a crafty villain who knows what he's doing, but he's still not the smartest, most ingenious anime antagonists fans have ever seen. Plenty of villains in other anime are even more brilliant than Yhwach, crafting mind-bending schemes that keep the heroes guessing until the very end.

The story of Bleach has presented its final supervillain: King Yhwach, the father of all Quincy and the leader of the Wandenreich. He has already established himself as an enormous threat to Ichigo Kurosaki and the Soul Reapers, invading the Soul Society and butchering countless Soul Reapers en route to his ultimate goal, slaying the Soul King to collapse the three worlds back into one. Those are some serious stakes, but despite the danger, Yhwach is still halfway sympathetic, since he wants to create a world where the Quincy tribe may belong.

That doesn't fully justify what Yhwach is doing, but it does take the edge off his villainy, since rather few villains fight for the sake of others. So, while Yhwach is still a monster who needs to be taken down, anime fans may agree that a handful of other anime villains are definitely more evil than Yhwach, no...

Major sneaker brand Puma and iconic Shonen Jump series Bleach are joining forces for an exclusive sneaker collection combining fashion and anime. The drop commemorates the first animes 20th anniversary, releasing two designs inspired by fan-favorite characters Ichigo Kurosaki and Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez.

Tite Kubo has created plenty of dynamic characters for Bleach. Each character has their own place which lends to the development of the plot. Some of them have eventually become fan favorites. But the huge number of characters means that not everyone can receive appropriate screentime.

As Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War Part 3 is in full swing, fans have started missing scenes from a few of these characters. As it turns out, even the staff of the series miss a few characters.

Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War Director Misses His Favorite Character Kisuke Urahara and the Ichigo gang in Bleach: Tybw | Credits: Studio Pierrot

Taguchi Tomahisa is the general director of Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War anime. He has replaced Noriyuki Abe, the general director of the original Bleach series. An interview with Oricon was held with Taguchi Tomohisa, in which the director freely expressed his opinion on the series.

The majority of Bleach Tybw episode 29 focused on Ukitake’s sacrifice to become the soul king and his past. While the flashback certainly added more clarity to Ukitake’s condition, the situation at the Soul Society is still dire.

Unaware of the situation developing with Ukitake, Yhwach claims that he has won and that he had no more reason to fight. However, things are only getting worse for Ichigo, as he is now face to face with his friend turned enemy, Uryu Ishida.

Bleach Tybw episode 30 will feature 12 minutes of anime only content, and hopefully, it will give a more detailed account of Uryu and Ichigo’s battle.

The official website of Bleach revealed the premise of Bleach Tybw Episode 30. It is as follows:

Ukitake releases the power of “Mimihagi-sama” that resides within his body and becomes “Mimihagi-sama” himself, and stops the collapse of the world...

The previous episode of Bleach Tybw was nothing less than shocking. Ichigo, who had rushed to intervene with Yhwach’s plan, ended up being the one who ended up killing the soul king.

With all three worlds thrown into disarray, it will fall on the heroes to come up with a solution to the problem at hand. With the soul king out of the picture, what will Ichigo and the others do?

The Three Worlds have lost the Soul King. Kisuke Urahara and his friends realize the seriousness of the situation...

Bleach Tybw part 3 started with a 9 minute flashback, following which we got a continuation of the fight between Yhwach’s Elite Guard and Squad Zero.

Just when it felt like Squad Zero had managed to fend off the mighty villain, Yhwach’s Almighty manifests, turning the tide of the battle. Well, Uryu too played his part.

This has set up a show off between Ichigo, who has now been tasked to protect the Soul King, and Yhwach, in the upcoming episode 28 of Bleach Tybw. Check out the details below.

In a recent interview with Daisuke Sakuma on his radio talk show, Bleach creator Tite Kubo shared insights into his creative process, revealing that he kept his editor at arm’s length, never allowing him to interfere in the manga.

“I’m the type of writer who doesn’t really have meetings with my editor,” Kubo stated.

Unlike many manga creators who frequently consult with their editors, Kubo preferred to work on his own terms.

“When I was serializing, my editor would come to pick up the manuscript once it was done. I’d tell them, ‘Next week, it’ll go like this,’ and then they’d leave,” he explained.

Sakuma expressed surprise at this approach, noting that it’s common for editors to be heavily involved in shaping a manga’s story.
