What is a Thousand-Year Blood War?

The original anime series Bleach came to a conclusion back in 2012. However, the creators left out the final manga arc, the Thousand-Year Blood War. Now, more than ten years later, they made the ultimate comeback and started animating the Bleach TYBW arc. 

This arc mainly consists of four parts. The first installment aired in December, 2022 and it surpassed all the expectations. Moreover, the second part of this arc is coming soon as well. Mainly, the arc follows the Thousand-Year Blood War. This is a war between the Soul Society and the Quincy King. Bleach TYBW part 2 will showcase the battle between Ichigo and Quincy’s army.

Bleach TYBW arc consists of four parts in total, with TYBW part 2 coming soon. Since it takes approximately half a year to finish one part (according to release dates), we expect the franchise to ultimately come to an end in 2024. 

When it comes to the new cast members, Ayane Sakura will join the show as Liltotto. In addition, Takeshi Koyama will portray Gerald, while Nao Toyama and Soichiro Hoshi will make appearances as Giselle and Nyanzol. 

Moreover, here’s a brief overview of the plot for Bleach TYBW part 2. This part of the final arc more specifically follows the Separation Arc. Therefore, this arc shows the battles between Ichigo’s Soul Reapers and Wandenreich’s Quincies. Just like before, Studio Pierrot is continuing the animation for Bleach. 

Lastly, the manga creator Tite Kubo revealed that the Bleach TYBW part 2 anime will include extra fighting scenes that weren’t initially in the manga chapters! He went on to reveal that the fight will happen between “two specific characters”, not revealing further details.
