Bleach has been a part of the Big 3 along with Naruto and One Piece. While Naruto concluded its series with much appreciation and One Piece is still being continued, Bleach fell short in terms of its rushed ending. This fueled dissatisfaction with the series among the manga and anime community.

There was a noticeable change in the ending of Tite Kubo’s popular series Bleach. His work faced major criticism that slammed on its rushed ending. But with Jujutsu Kaisen‘s recent abrupt conclusion, the context of the discussion about manga endings is rapidly growing. It appears that the change has probably offered a new viewpoint on Kubo’s work.

Tite Kubo‘s Thousand Year Blood War Arc, which faced a contentious end in 2016, had left many fans feeling short-changed. It also likely had numerous storylines left undecided. The rushed ending was marked by Kubo’s declining health at that time.
Moving to the current year 2024, the manga industry and its creations have significantly undergone major changes. The recent statement about Jujutsu Kaisen‘s unpredicted ending has rekindled the discussion on mangaka’s pressures and toll in producing weekly serialization. The conversation on balancing work-life and mental health thus gained considerable instigation in the industry.
The change in viewpoint has given thought to understanding and accepting Jujutsu Kaisen’s abrupt ending. Despite some inevitable dissatisfaction, the mangaka Gege Akutami‘s compassion increased among the viewers. Moreover, the responsiveness that appeared among modern audiences may fill out Kubo’s view on the series finale.
