The anime Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War is back and giving fans some epic moments in the latest installment!
Major Changes in the Anime
The show's creator, Tite Kubo, had some health issues while working on the original manga. This meant a few ideas got cut. Now, those awesome ideas are making their way into the Anime and the viewers get a much fuller story.
This anime, Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, is making some changes already! The fights are longer and there are some new additions to the dialogue as well. Fans are even getting new flashbacks to really dive deep into this world!
There was a pretty major twist that fans should pay close attention to: a huge power-up for Uryu, who may be the new Soul King!
Uryu's New Power
The big Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War reveal? The anime is teasing the idea that Uryu has The Almighty!
This came up in the newest episode, #27. When Yhwach activated The Almighty. A massive, and surprising event!. The Schutzstaffel got this additional boost to their powers! What was even more surprising was the major implication that came with it!
- Uryu's eyes turned red, similar to Yhwach's.
- Senjumaru was surprised at the change! That suggests the change is more significant.
- This really hints at Uryu's incredible and unexpected connection to The Almighty!
Uryu's Biggest Mystery
Fans always want more answers and what's made Uryu a captivating character is this question:
Why did Uryu survive the Auswählen while everyone else died?
The manga never addressed this directly. This change may add clarity to something Yhwach pointed out! What is so remarkable about Uryu is he survived this major, powerful, magical event! It seemed he survived because he might also be a potential Soul King.
The anime could clarify this connection with more references to Yhwach's and Haschwalth's story!
- Yhwach seemed to think that Uryu might be a replacement!
- This connects to Uryu's Schrift being "A." That is like the "Almighty."
- Haschwalth also shares a deep connection with Yhwach!
It really all comes together, offering a unique interpretation that will bring additional attention to the series and could provide further developments between Uryu and Ichigo!
Uryu's Future
The show will create major developments that will redefine the main narrative going forward. It is truly remarkable the impact that the potential for Uryu becoming a Soul King, which seems unlikely as a possibility in the manga!
In the manga Uryu's impact towards the end seemed pretty limited, almost like they missed the potential that he had.
The anime changes all that, giving Uryu more room to develop and have a bigger impact on the show's ending! There may be another element that adds to the tension of the show! As fans focus on this rivalry between Ichigo and Uryu, it also builds more tension. And for anyone who watched this epic battle royale in the manga, this would not be the same ending, for sure.
What may appear to be small tweaks for this latest Bleach series are certainly making a big impression on fans who loved the earlier manga. Those small changes have redefined Uryu as one of the key figures of the entire storyline, not just an easily forgettable one, near the finale.
