I doubt it's the end....
as someone metioned, he didn't drop his other series, it was canceled due to low popularity, meaning the Bleach is doing fairly well where it matters the most, In Japan, so unless he's done saying everything he wants, it's popularity wanes significantly, the magazine goes kaput or the magazine decides to pull the plug on Bleach, Bleach will keep going till it's run it's course...
As for Hell, movie 4 is coming out this December and it'll take place in Hell, and Kubo will be greatly involved in the production, so it might be canon to an extent, just like movie 3, Kubo had a hand in it...
and reading back to an old interview of when he came to Comic-Con, he still has some ideas he wants to write, so going back to topic, unless the magazine shuts Bleach down, it'll probably keep on going....
As for Ichigo's evolution being at it's end, maybe the next Arc, will deal less with a huge boss, and more like the clean up after Aizen, and in between that intertwine some back stories....
Either way, I'm looking forward to whatever he comes up w/ next....

I heard that too, two more arcs. I just want to get off this. I can't see Bleach ever ending, it'll just go on and on forever. It could survive a nuclear holocaust, like a cockroach.



Now this I'm looking forward too. I hope we get a fansub, even if the video is crappy.

I cannot remember when it was, but Dr. Love had part of a Tite Kubo interview, where he said that he would have two more arcs for Bleach. One would be a short training arc and then a much longer conclusion arc. I would assume that

If I remember correctly, Tite already had a new manga in the planning stages or something like that.

I remember an interview, you could probably find stuff about it if you search the Bleach section of the forums.

And the hell part was somewhat of a joke.

If this is the final arc, then what about explanation about Isshin and Ichigo's mother origins- who they really are, what squad Isshin is from, etc.
