The official X account of Viz Media unveiled a stunning and dramatic teaser for what is to come in the third section of Bleach: Thousand- Years Blood War - The Conflict. In the most awaited fight since Yhwach vs Yamamoto, the minute-long teaser features Squad Zero's captain Ichibe going off against Yhwach. Additionally shown in the preview is Ichigo and his team sprinting into the Soul King's castle, which falls shortly after. The teaser brilliantly captures the brutality and action that is about to transpire, therefore fulfilling the highly expected sequel justice.
The event Anime Expo announced on X (previously Twitter) on May 30, 2024, on a special Thousand- Years Blood War panel whereby fresh information and a "sneak peek" of the third chapter would first show. English voice actors Xander Mobus and Robbie Daymond, who will be discussing and mirroring the first two sections, promised appearances on the panel also for the Thousand- Years Blood War anime.
The apparent defeat of Yhwach's most elite soldiers by Senjumaru Shutara, the lone surviving member of Squad Zero after the others (save Ichibe) murdered themselves to let her wield Bankai in a scene not from the original manga marks the end of Part 2 of Thousand- Years Blood War. Among Yhwach's elite was Uryu, who had turned sides with Quincy against the Soul Society. Ichibe, meantime, was battling Yhwach with his own "Bankai," a sort of weakening agent for the nearly unstoppable evil.
Since the battle with Yhwach was still very much under flux when part 2 concluded, Part 3 is probably going to pick up in virtually exactly the same position. Given they were shown in the trailer, Ichigo and companions were already clearly on their way to the Soul King's Palace. It's fair to say they will arrive, although whether it will be in time to assist destroy Yhwach is yet unknown.
One of the most popular Anime of 2023 was Thousands-Year Blood War. The second section was called The Separation; Studio Pierrot has already revealed its sequel following an epic and heartbreaking climax.
Adapted on the well-known manga Bleach by Tite Kubo, Thousand Years Blood War is Originally airing from October 2004 to March 2012, the original anime concluded without retelling the manga's last arc. When a new anime arrived to complete the project in 2022, fans of the series were naturally happy.
Most supporters believe the Thousand- Years Blood War will endure into a fourth part. There are 686 chapters in the manga; Part 2 concluded at Chapter 610. That's more than the 13 episodes each cour that viewers got in parts 1 and 2, even at a blazing speed of 5 chapters per episode. Tite Kubo has also been working with Studio Pierrot to extend on the material eliminated from the Bleach manga, hence a slower pace is more likely due to the extra quantity.
It is difficult to forecast exactly what part 4 of Thousand- Years Blood War will look like given how quite abrupt the finale of Bleach manga is. This ending is where most alterations are probably to be visible. Fans are definitely looking for some significant adjustments that would make the ending of the series one befitting of a member of the Big Three of manga. Given the present rate of release, part 4 would most likely be issued either at the end of 2024 or the beginning of 2025, even if the Release Date for Part 3 is yet unknown.
With the first two now completed, the second half is gradually approaching and will most definitely be a headliner in the anime-packed year 2024. The entire series is broken up into four parts.
Since the first teaser following the end of part 2 ended, this will be the first glimpse at part 3 of Thousand- Years Blood War, so it promises to be an interesting peek at just what is to come. Many fans are expecting that part 3 may be where the major changes start to show since part 2 deviated from the manga somewhat and they will have to start with cleaning up after the introduction of Squad Zero's strongest Bankai, which eliminated many of Yhwach's most devoted troops, including Uryu.
