Translation thread of the Bleach site interview with Kubo Tite (the creator) and Morita Masakazu (Kurosaki Ichigo's voice actor)! #BLEACH_anime #BLEACHTYBW

A very rough summary + skipped the personal questions since I am away on a trip right now 🙇‍♂️ ImageImageImageImage
- Morita didn't feel the 10 year anime gap thanks to his Bleach Brave Souls work
- credits Klab for connecting fans worldwide, but notes the difference b/w recording game lines vs recording anime "conversations"
- he/Kubo note how the VAs' voices have "memorised" their characters ImageImage
- Kubo is involved with the recording sessions remotely, gives feedback to returning VAs; even the veterans would feel anxious (eg. Miki Shinichirou/Urahara's VA)
- Kubo never really noticed Ichigo's voice sounding different in TYBW, thinks it suits Ichigo's growth Image
- Morit explains how he's made his Getsuga Tenshou sound different in TYBW (eg. "getsuga" lingers longer)
- he imagined another voice for Ichigo when he first read the manga and tried to replicate it; notes he has finer control of his voice for TYBW!Ichigo unlike before Image
- a memorable moment from TYBW production: Sugou Takayuki (Yhwach's VA) not being able to read the katakana words in his script
- Morita remembers Sugou having a similar problem for his Zangetsu lines in the 1st anime
- both note he has so many lines + hard words to say now lol ImageImage
- Morita was reminded of how the VAs such as for Squad 0 bring their characters to life
- Kubo says sound director Nagasaki + sound producer Morita Yousuke played a key role with Squad 0's voicework
- both Moritas call each other You-chan + Morikazu-san bc of their surname lol Image
- Kubo says the VAs grasp their characters well even if they don't appear much (eg. Yamashita Daiki as Ryuunosuke, Seto Asami as Shino)
- Morita enjoyed the Ichigo/Renji scenes + recording together with the VA Itou Kentarou
- excited by new staff + feels secure with the old staff ImageImage
- Morita knows where the 2nd cour will end, felt shocked
- the VAs are determined to do well to understand the material made by the staff
- Kubo says there will be new fights; he drew 5-6 pages of instructions when the staff said they wanted to draw certain characters fighting ImageImage
Have barely proofread this + couldn't include everything they said so sorry for any inaccuracies or lazy summaries 🥲 was out most of today and I have to wake up in 6 hours......
If there's any parts I think would be interesting fully translated I might come back to them... doubtful, though

Translation thread of the Bleach site interview with Hiramatsu Masaki, who's in charge of the series composition and script (alongside the director Taguchi)! #BLEACH_anime
"Explain how you felt when it was decided you’d be part of the Bleach adaptation after 10 years."
- was requested by Taguchi
- it's his first time in this role for anime in 10 years
- had fun with the scripts
*note: Taguchi wrote ep 1-4, Hiramatsu has done the script since ep 5
"Do you have time to meet with Kubo Tite-sensei on top of working on the series composition?"
- regularly contacts him through his editor from Shueisha, will meet in person if it's hard to discuss through writing
- feels nervous everytime hahaha

It is Bleach interview Sunday and today it's Hiramatsu aka one of the two people working on the series composition and one of the scriptwriters aka someone you guys may or may not want to pick a bone with depending on how happy you are with the TYBW anime pacing djsjdhd 💀
although research tells me he's been doing the script from Episode 5 onwards so far, and iirc it was the previous episodes that frustrated people the most LOLOL (Episodes 1-4 script written by Taguchi, for reference)
I haven't actually read that far into the interview yet so idk if there's anything juicy to share though
