Today, we’re returning to our Bleach: Forgotten Characters series for a very overdue look at none other than the series mascot – Kon!
Kon is a really weird and unique character, full of personality and with an iconic design, yet his relevance runs dry by the end of the first arc. Did he deserve better, or did he simply fulfil his role well?
Let me know your thoughts – and enjoy!

What did you think of Kon's character in Bleach? Did he deserve a bigger role in the story, or was it just right? How would you have used him differently in later arcs? And does he work as the series' mascot? Let me know your thoughts!
I didn’t know he was a lion. I thought he was a teddy bear with weird hair. 😂 I love buff Kon. He’s like Handsome Squidward.
Kon solos all of anime
#Kukaku needs love LOOve 🥺
Kon was fucking hilarious i miss him.
I personally can’t stand the mascot character in any anime but Kon was pretty good when he was being sincere and not a pervert.
KON needed a little more screen time
i would love to see Kon and Nel meet for the first time
Kon honestly gets more attention in the anime, either as the hero Karakurizer and in the Reigai arc where it tells the origins of Mod Souls. You’d think Kisuke by now would give him his own body to use his abilities to assist more.
They have most of Bleach english dubbed and yet you still can't pronounce his name right ? Lmao crazy
It needs to be retconned that Kon uses his Palace power up to tank the Galvano 😂
What about the Gotei 13 Invading Army filler Arc!?!? He has a HUGE role in that arc!
Konpachi solos Soul King 👑
Ōetsu Nimaiya: And a hello to you, Mr. Stuffed animal gai. 🧸
We do not need more Kon, he did his job and he got a panel in the one shot, we already have alot of characters that need panel time
Honestly I'm watching/rewatching Bleach from the beginning and the story feels rushed even at the start.
I liked him when he started out. He's a rogue mod soul with an interesting entrance into the series but he quickly became an irrelevant joke character, which is a shame.
At first it was KON but then it turned KOFF.
He is indeed ikonic
I wish you mentioned the Karakura Raiser parts Kon was a part off
