In the history of manga, they have always been illustrated in black and white themes. Being bored of this monotonous presentation of the story, from time to time, fans have taken things into their own hands and have coloured the panels of the manga.
But with the new one-shot manga of Bleach, Tite Kubo has done something that no other shonen manga has ever tried to do. This special one-shot was released on August 9, 2021, to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the series. Recently, the weekly shonen jump announced on Twitter that a digitally coloured version of the manga will be released, and fans haven’t been able to hold their calm since then.
