Bleach Manga Author!

Kubo Tite the author of Bleach, his real name is Noriaki Kubo he was born in Hiroshiman. Japan on June 26, 1977 as Noriaki Kubo. Though his birth name was Noriaki Kubo, he is known by Kubo Tite, Kubo Taito, Kubotite, as well as Taito Kubo. Though not much information is given about his family background, we do know he has a younger sister named Hiromi and a younger brother whose name is unknown at the moment. Kubo began creating manga during high school (in his school anime club) where he made his first series "Zombie Powder" during his third year. He submitted Zombie Powder to The Weekly Shonen Jump (Shonen Jump) but it was rejected. He was later contacted by Shonen Jump editors and managed to improve the series and got Zombie Powder published in Shonen Jump in 1999. But unfortunately for Kubo, it was stopped after 4 books due to unpopularity and high sexual content. He did manage to make some short stories as well which are featured in the back of the Zombie Powder volumes. The titles are: Ultra Unholy Hearted Machine, Rune Master Urara, and Bad Shield United.
