Who the heck is Tube¿ And is this image from Airmaster¿
Not really... Bleach characters are horribly underdeveloped anyway, and only a few actually have a personality that rises above utterly generic so I think characters can seem artificially similar. For example, Tatuski wants to protect Orihime, now Ichigo wants to save her. That's the main link between them, and that they're both seen as kind of scary by most of their peers, but that's just because Bleach is so simple in it's plot. Two rescue arcs padded out by training arcs. Ichigo's unique feature, as it were, is that he wants to save everyone on his own and is a twat when it comes to accepting help. Tatsuki isn't like that.
The moodiness? Well that's true, but then think about how many characters in Bleach are moody and snappy (usually in a juvenile way) and with little else to their character; the bald guy, Hitsugaya, Ichigo, Tatsuki, Ishida, Soifon, baseball kid, Tousen (since he went evil), the head captain, Hiyori, Nanao... Just off the top of my head. And then you have the characters that are moody but then Kubo added in a second personality traits in a weak attempt at variety; so the one-armed woman... She's moody, and drunk! Lisa... She's moody and likes Josei manga! Rukia's been gifted with a whole three moods; mopey, moody and "i has maded pichur" comic relief mode.
