Updates about the Last Arc: Thousand Years of Blood War of Bleach

For those who have not seen this yet a lot of details are given out about what we can expect from the final arc of Bleach and also a link for pics associated. Kubo is wrapping things up and tying up loose ends for pretty much everything.

Yamamoto

Yamamoto has become softer
He is still without his left arm
Though he has not changed physically, he does have some inner changes.

Sui-Feng

Her hair is shorter and straight now
Her arm was restored due to new technology in the Gotei 13.

Rose

His look is modeled after an English gentleman
Kubo chose to re-add Rose to the Third Division because he and Kira are well suited for each other

Kira

Kubo says he feels his bankai would be a little nauseating

Unohana

Unohana will fight in the upcoming arc
The true form of her Zanpakuto will be seen
When she fights, she unravels her braid

Shinji

Shinji's bangs have changed since his hair would not grow that much in 17 months
Kubo would like to draw how Shinji and Momo have developed a trusting relationship.

Byakuya

Byakuya no longer wears a kenseikan

Renji

Renji has grown stronger
He is not quite at Aizen level yet.
His Bankai has changed
Renji stopped wearing goggles and switched to a towel so they would not break in battle.

His armor has changed

Shunsui

The "history" of his pink Haori will be revealed
He will use Bankai in this arc

Kensei

Kensei is captain again with Hisgai, who looks up to him, as his lieutenant.

Hitsugaya

Despite insisting that he grew taller in a volume 53 sketch, he has not grown taller (Kubo laughs)
His Bankai has been completed
The chain on his Zanpakuto has changed

Rangiku

Rangiku's past will be a key to the story.

Kenpachi

He has not learned the name of his Zanpakuto yet
Kubo wants to draw his becoming a captain but says it would be difficult as it would disrupt the narrative.

Yachiru

Kubo has not even drawn her in a fight yet

Ikkaku

He wears a new armor piece with the kanji for dragon on it.

Yumichika

Kubo said if he gives a lieutenant a Bankai, he thinks Yumichika would be a good choice.
Kubo considers him and Ikkaku to be equals in strength

Mayuri

Mayuri's research will be the key to this arc.
Specifically his study on bodies will be the main part of this arc.
He has a new look
He has several different "faces" which he could put on at any time.
Kubo wanted to draw him in the last arc but could not make him appear

Ukitake

Ukitake is still ill
He will recover
He has undergone a bit of an internal change
Kubo claims he has no sense of fashion and jokingly said the only change he would ever make is dying his hair.

Rukia

Kubo plans on drawing flashbacks of when she was made a Lieutenant and how she felt.
Sentaro and Kiyone are supportive of her

Yoruichi

Kubo wanted to change her looks but thought her current look suits her too well.
She is permanently exiled from Soul Society along with Urahara
Her secret past with Urahara will be revealed

Isshin

His past with Ryuken will be revealed
Isshin could not go to Soul Society with Urahara because it would reveal something to the Gotei 13 and thus did not go.

Ichigo

Aizen commented that since Ichigo's birth, he has been an extraordinary being, the meaning behind this will be revealed
Grand Fisher called Ichigo a true blood, the meaning of this will be revealed
The reason why Ichigo looks so similar to Kaien will come out.
Ichigo is a Substitute Shinigami again.
Months before the Lost Substitute Shinigami arc began, Kubo sent a sketch of Ichigo's new Shikai to his publisher.
The marks around his wrist and neck represent the remnants of his Fullbring merging with his Shinigami powers


Masaki

Ichigo and Isshin believe that Masaki died to Grand Fisher, however this may not be true. The truth will be revealed.

Zennosuke

Kubo says he is unemployed (Kubo laughed)

Royal Guard

The Royal Guard will appear
Kubo has already drawn all the members

Other Stuff

Kubo says the Soul Society Arc was about Rukia, Arrancar arc was about Orihime and Lost Substitute Arc was about Sado. Based on this, the new arc will likely be about Uryu.
The new arc will take place in an Ice palace beneath somewhere.
The palace will be mostly white with blues and silvers in there as well.
The arc will take place right after the last one
Grimmjow is alive and might become a friend
