How to Draw Like Kubo: Bleach Art Style Explained (Middle Era) 

I think the reason why Kubo draws his characters so lean with elongated arms, legs and torso is due to the fact that he can dress them fashionably in different clothing for cover pages. Its the similar reason why in fashion shows and runways, generally models with long limbs and tall heights are preferred. That anatomy can help accentuate the curves and details of the clothing more.

I think bleach has 4 eras and a reason for this is that kubo said he purposefully changes how he draws depending on the arc/mood of that arc. Fullbring was my favourite style.

I know that you said it for the sake of teaching us, but when you said “Look at Orihime’s Breasts” and “Look at Nel’s Chest,” I started cracking up

I think the most prominent changes of kubo's style can be seen on Orihime designs. From the early arc , her design much simplicitic, doesn't hold too much gravitas, with thinner lines where his drawing style much akin too his previous work, zombie powder. Too me, seeing Kubo changes his style without sacrificing details is the show of maturity. Not only for him but also his character overall

Great breakdown. Kubo is definitely one of the best, and seeing his artstyle progression over time is incredible. Love how his art looks by the end of the series.

This is my favorite point in Kubo's art style. Late Soul Society to about Mid Hueco Mundo

i'm cracking up when you said "aizen is eight head tall..." while seeing 8 head of aizen stacked beside him. you're definitely a menace to soul society. either way thanks for the analysis, its great to know other perspective on how to stylize a character especially with tite kubo style.

As someone who draws anime as a hobby this vids are very nice . You should do one on toryama or gege

another MASTERCLASS. love to see it

This is fantastic dude, I hope you do more

Great videos keep it up bro

I realy like your art analysis :) so whats next? Toriyama? Togashi? Rumiko takahashi? Hiromu Arakawa?

Amazing video i was searching for a video like this for so long please can you do a video about togashi middle era art in the future

Lord yume

like actually very detailed I love Kubo's art style myself and I missed a lot of stuff you mention

I really like his original art style in the first era, so much charm and so much 2000s edge to it. It's my personal favourite out og all of Kubos' art styles.

please do how to draw in fire force or gachiakuta style😢🙏

love the video

At 6:14, I meant pipe fold, not spiral fold

Could you do one for something like Attack on titan or Mha like in there later halfs of the manga, also this was really informative video thank you.

I was actually hoping for this video. Then again, you called Irises "eyeballs"😅

This is fun n all but it doesn't really " teach me how to draw like kubo" it's more of an artistic analysis

love your analysis, what do you mean here at 1:19 "there's space on inside"
