ActionAnime2022Rated 7.7

Next episode
Nothing scheduled
Is it for me?
Returning Bleach fans get a victory lap here, and newcomers will be lost, since it starts with no recap. The animation is sharper than the old run, with fights lit in bright auras and the original composer back on the score. In one early scene Nel and Pesche tell Ichigo the war has reached Hueco Mundo, and he leaves with Urahara to see it himself.
Before you start
One storyline runs throughout and fights stretch over several episodes, broken up by flashbacks, so it plays best in long sittings.
4 seasons, 50 episodes, 30 min each, about 25 hours so far
