Animating the last arc, out next year. Also Burn the Witch, the spinoff one-shot is getting an anime and a short serialised run, out this year.

The first 95% of the final arc was the best one so this is great news! Hopefully they can improve on those last few chapters too!

Wow, I can't believe a mobile game brought interest back in Bleach long enough to bring back the anime!

I don't actually remember much of how it ended, other then being very dissapointed.

Here's hoping for something better.

hell yeah

I have a deep-seated love for Bleach, even though I know it's terrible. I agree the final arc was really good up to a point.

Blood War arc is fucking amazing until it's suddenly just laughably bad. Still quite the experience as an utter train wreck even after that, though!

Yesss, I was just checking for anime news over the weekend. The last arc was exciting for bankai reveals, but ultimately suffered due to the KT syndrome and had to be rushed to hell with its ending, which really pissed me off. So many things left in the dust >:(

I'm looking forward to more great tracks from the anime

Nice, I actually only recently started reading the manga so maybe if I decide to ignore people's instructions to stop halfway (I probably won't stop) maybe I'll just hop in and watch this.

So..... Reborn though? Artland? You there??? Take notes!

I really like the 2 Brave Souls OP

But it's also a reminder of how QUALITY the animation from Studio Pierrot can be.

Bleach OPs: 13/Ranbu no Melody is the GOAT without question. 9 (Velonica), 2 (d-Tecnolife), and 12 (Change) are all top tier as well. I also have soft spots for 1 (Asterisk), 3 (Ichirin no Hana), and 15 (Harukaze) but more for the songs/nostalgia than the entire package.

...and that's already half the OPs. Man Bleach had some of the best OPs.

Also shoutouts to the Haruka Kanata ED (I forget which number. 26? During the end of the Aizen/Deicide Arc each episode it changed to highlight a different division) that was also awesome.

OP13 feels pretty overrated in this topic after watching it. Admittedly I stopped watching by 12 but Change feels way better from both a song and animation standpoint. The actual action bits in 13 are super fantastic obviously but it doesn't change the fact that the animation largely has nothing to do with the song or that the OP is largely comprised of static images of plain city streets.

I feel Ranbu no Melody really uses those street images well to convey the atmosphere of that arc really well. Plus its not for that long!

Oh yeah, Yamamoto did get a new voice replacement for Brave Souls since his original Japanese voice actor passed away.

But whether or not they still go with him for the anime is to be determined.

And on that note, the Squad Zero also have voices already. Same with Yhwach, but its it not hard to figure out who would voice him, if you know the manga.

Hype.

It's too bad Urahara's original English VA passed away, I thought he was great. Doug Erholtz does ok as his replacement but it's not quite the same and seeing the OG do Urahara's Bankai finally would have been so good.

Conspiracy theory: Jump going hard on this, perhaps even pushing for it in the first place, because a bunch of their biggest titles are ending soon (Promised Neverland, Yaiba, Haikyuu, MHA rumored to be nearing the home stretch), and nobody gives a shit about Kishimoto's new series and it's selling like garbage. They are mega worried about the future.

If only they knew just how big Chainsaw Man will be one day.

I may have just watched every OP back to back.

13>12>6>5>1>9>15>14>8>3>2>4>10>7>11

Watching all of those I kind of cant believe how high they kept the quality, the top 12 are all pretty great, and the worst it gets is fine. Im with SHINE, 10 is my guilty pleasure.

Oh yeah, I should mention, there's gonna be a Bleach 20th Anniversary stream tomorrow at 5:45 PM PDT that was meant to reveal this stuff.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB0-kpn4U24

It was suppose to happen during AnimeJapan, but that got cancelled because of COVID-19.

This stretch is the actual best arc of the series so if you weren't digging it then it only gets worse from there. Turn Back the Pendulum being the brief exception.

Yes and no
It's one of those shows that many consider good up to a certain "point"
That point varies
Some people only like the very few episodes, before Soul Society arc, some people like it until the end of the Soul Society arc, and then a lot of people stopped watching but imo it was still good until "Batle of Karakura" and at this point it became dogshit
This is episode 213 or something
Mind you, after Soul Society arc, there are A LOT of filler episodes. A LOT
Skip them
They suck

Bleach was the worst offender of filler because it would stop in the middle of a canon story arc and give you 6 months of this other story

Naruto and One Piece at least had the decency to only do it between arcs
