Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War is gearing up for another significant release as Studio Pierrot works on season three. Japan is set to release Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War volume two on Blu-ray, promising fans a notable upgrade.

The latest Blu-ray installment encompasses episodes 14 to 26 and comes packed with exciting bonuses. Fans can expect new scenes showcasing the Soul Society’s battle against the Quincies, along with visually enhanced versions of familiar sequences.

Reactions from Japanese fans on social media indicate excitement over the updated footage, with many praising the addition of unseen cuts and revitalized battle scenes.

However, there’s no word yet on when the overhauled Bleach animation will reach U.S. shores. With the second volume’s recent debut in Japan, it may be some time before American audiences can enjoy it.

In the meantime, fans can get into the show’s first cour on Blu-ray, as Viz Media has just launched sales for the bundle. For streaming options, Bleach and its new series are exclusively available on Hulu and/or Disney+.

For those seeking more information on the series, the synopsis of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War sets the stage for Ichigo Kurosaki’s continued adventures as a Substitute Soul Reaper amidst escalating conflicts in the Soul Society and his hometown of Karakura.

With new enemies on the horizon and ominous threats looming, Ichigo must wield his Zanpakuto once again to protect his loved ones and confront formidable adversaries like the Wandenreich, led by Yhwach, the father of all Quincies.
