Why is the story called "Bleach"?
In an interview in Shonen Jump Magazine, Tite Kubo revealed the reasoning behind Bleach's title:
The title wasn't Bleach when Tite Kubo decided to draw a story about Shinigami. This was before he drew the one-shot manga that appeared in Akamaru Jump. The weapon wasn't a sword, but a scythe. Only Rukia had a scythe and the other characters used guns. At that point, the title was Snipe (as in "Sniper"). Right before he started drawing, he began to think that a sword would be better and realized he couldn't use Snipe as a title anymore. He began looking for a title that grasped the bigger picture. Shinigami are associated with the color black, but it would have been boring to use "black". "White", on the other hand, can suggest black as a complementary color. So Tite Kubo chose "Bleach" to evoke the impression of the color white.
When will Hell Chapter come out?
Bleach: Hell Chapter is not out yet in English.
English Sub: Bleach: Hell Chapter will be released on DVD the 23rd of August. Once it is released on DVD, the subbers can then start subbing the movie which will take some time due to it's length. SGK fan subs, one of the alternative Bleach subbers to Crunchyroll, has announced that they will be subbing Hell Chapter. No release date has been announced by them though. Expect something around the end of August to maybe early September.
English Dub: The dub will take much longer. The average time between release of the movie and release of the dub has been around 2 years. 2013 is around when the dub will see release.

Is kensei muguruma still alive?
Kensei's status is unknown. He has not been seen or mentioned since releasing his Bankai against Wonderweiss, who later left that fight.
If Tier Harribel is confirmed to be alive why hasn't her status been changed from "Deceased" on the Espada page? (Wow, My favorite Character's alive!)
It will be changed when we review the translation.
