Throwback #29 - Hey look, it's a Shinji
















From the conception of Bleach, Tite Kubo has introduced us to many memorable, funny, and great characters. Some may be more powerful than others, but the others make up for it with their backstories, their abilities, and what they bring to their own division. Did you know, however, that Shinji Hirako's character was developed way before his introduction? As we all know, Shinji was introduced as a transfer student in Karakura after Aizen's defection. Later we find that Shinji's character is more than just a jokester, but he possesses enough strength to take down Ichigo. Both are Visored and it only makes sense that these two meet and Shinji's history with Aizen is introduced later on as the story progresses. I just wanted to point out that I found it fascinating that Shinji's character is introduced in the 1st chapter (next to Rukia), but it makes me wonder if Tite Kubo knew all along Shinji's role or heck, if he was even named Shinji from the get-go. So this little bit of trivia is the long awaited Throwback and I do apologize I haven't been thorough or on-time. Until then, look forward for more Throwbacks every Sunday and you all stay classy now.
