This would be amazing lol and right up this damn manga alley.
He's talking about Dressorsa which more or less lasted two years. The final arc of Bleach last four years and still didn't resolve anything.

Hell, if you want to take the longest continuous story segment of One Piece, the entire War Saga INCLUDING Thriller Bark, you would start at January 29, 2007 and run until August 30, 2010, the final chapter before
the time skip
Thriller Bark, Sabaody, Amazon Lily, Impel Down, Marineford, the Sabo flashback arc, and the Post-War Arc
That's about 3 and a half years, or a little less than a year shorter than Bleach's final arc.
Damn, less than four years and all of that good stuff happened.
Actually? Given Yhwach's powers - it's not implausible. And it would be a middle finger by Tite to Shonen Jump and make Bleach remembered for a long time.

but still though, how did Yhwach not see that silver arrow coming for him. Kubo pls, all you had to do was keep Aizen around and say he tricked Yhwach's eyes again and it would've been fine.
He could've said Aizen used his bankai.

To think this
1. The Arrancar arc is still longer
2. One Piece can get more plot moving in less time.
Some more perspective.
The Chimera Ant arc in Hunter x Hunter was 132 chapters. Sure it ran for 7 years due to constant hiatuses, but it still managed to tell an entire story in less quantity than this stupid Blood War. Reminder that including the upcoming final chapter, the Blood War is 215 chapters long.

Killed Ichigo's mom and tried to usurp Aizen in the hearts of manga fans that love overpoweredness and fuckery.
Both punishable by death.
My favorite number to pull out since they're both ending this week is that the final arc started six chapters after Nisekoi debuted.
That's a REALLY good stat considering Nisekoi is pretty long drawn out and tired now.
Seven Deadly Sins was after Blood War started, right?

Bleach's ending will be the equivalent of Castle's ending lol

Meh. Fight scenes could be better. Oda spends WAY too much time trying to get me to care about supporting characters wherever Luffy's crew ends up, but I still end up not caring even after they pack up and leave. Only times he got me legit shook was when Kuma wrecked their shit andI'm so glad One Piece exists.
Ace died
Yeah, SDS started after the Blood War did

We need some Dragonball stats, what arc was the manga on 4 years into it?
yeah, Kubo fuck up hard this saga
if you can do a decent arc in 4 year...
also remeber this?lol
I hope when all the god chickens died Kira just super took credit for it
yeah, Kubo fuck up hard this saga
if you can do a decent arc in 4 year...
also remeber this?lol
I loved this part lol. Kira looks so badass. Now that he's died he's seen some shit. It's almost like he saw the manga's ending when he died and just doesn't give a fuck anymore.
"Who are you?"
"A dead man."

Yeah that doesn't really work, if you have seven years with significant breaks, it's not exactly surprising that you can better plan pace and fit in meaningful content than if you have to crank a chapter every weak. In fact it would be far more shocking if this wasn't the case. Same reason why monthly manga's tend to be better paced than weekly.
Vegeta and Nappa have arrived, can Earth's Mightiest hold out in time for Goku to arrive?!*

Probably because Shounen Jump is the manga magazine with highest circulation in Japan and so they have higher standards to keep series around.
The Keroro Gunso/Sgt. Frog series fell from selling around 200k week 1 to around 50k after its anime ended, but the manga seemingly still continues without issues or any hint that it's approaching any ending. A Jump series falling that much would be quickly cancelled, but Shounen Ace, which publishes Keroro, has much lower standards (its own circulation is bellow 100k compared to Jump selling more than 2 millions every week).
Edit: Although Conan overall is bigger than Bleach, in spite of being published in a lower circulation magazine. Ippo is smaller, but likely survives due to Shounen Magazine having lower standards than Jump.

the hunt for the dragonballs, all of the tournaments, Red Ribbon Army, King Piccolo, Raditz.
Jesus christ Kubo.
it ends this week, the next chapter is the last one
NOW you're speaking my language. I wish Escanor would show up in the last Bleach chapter and destroy EVERYBODY.
Estarossa: "Why are you not afflicted by my commandment?"
Escanor: "Of course it has no effect. I've no reason to feel hatred towards those beneath me.
*staredown*
Escanor: "All I feel towards them is pity."
Estarossa: "Such insolent pride."
Escanor: "THAT IS MY SIN."
Dragonball was in the beginning of the Saiyan arc four years into it's publication.

Where are people hearing this?
Shonen Jump, who announced the manga was ending in 5 chapters 4 chapters ago
also Volume 74 will be the final volume and the next chapter is the final chapter of volume 74
Also last issue they announced that both Nisekoi and Bleach would be ending in this week's double issue with Nisekoi increased to 25 pages and Bleach a standard length
It was announced in the latest SJ.
Bunch of anime news sites carried it.
For example (bear in mind the August 8th issue is the next one)
Wow, last chapter, and it just going to be standard length? Not much room left.
are you fucking serious? is it going to be 40 pages? unless it ends with ichigo being under aizens spell since SS arc, this wont be good
Normal length, 15 pages.
Nisekoi's announcement about its climax (or near climax, not sure if this upcoming chapter is also the end, though it feels like it) mentioned that it is double the size, but Bleach's didn't, so its pretty much a guaranteed 15 pager.
wow
even Nisekoi will have a better "goodbye"
i wonder why the shonen not impulse the final arc with an anime

Nisekoi is more popular than Bleach, also I doubt an extended final chapter can help bleach since it already have 4 years of final arc lol.

Wait, this week is the last chapter!?!? lmao are you serious??
I think it's amazing that we're all in agreement that this is the only way the ending can possibly be satisfying.
Just make it end with Yhwach getting up behind Ichigo and going "SINCE WHEN DID YOU THINK YOU WON" with Ichigo doing the O_O face and end the manga right there.
Typical bleach shit.

same reaction here. I just read the last chapter published but I didn't expect to be the last before the end. WTF. How can it end in 15 pages lol?
Also, maybe I'm wrong, but it did all the "new fucking blade" for ichigo and then what? It keeps getting broken? That's it?
Watch the entire thing be Ichigo's coma dream, and when he wakes up all his friends are there, and they're just normal-ass humans. No Shinigami, no Quincies, no Hollows or Arrancar, no... whatever else there was.
It would be Kubo's big "Now I don't have to explain any of the plot holes" trump card.

I'd just like to remind people that we're never going to actually find out what the fuck the Soul King is/was.
Why does Yhwach call him "Father?" Why does Yhwach call Ichigo his "son?"
Tune in next time, on Bleac- [CANCELLED.]
