New Bleach Clip Teases a Long-Awaited Bankai: Watch

As a gamer who’s been following the anime scene for more than a decade, I can confidently say that Bleach has always held a special place in my heart. Remembering the days when Ichigo was just a substitute soul reaper trying to help his friend, it’s amazing to see how much he’s grown and become a savior of the Soul Society.

Bleach made its way to television ages ago, and Ichigo Kurosaki has grown leagues since we first met him. Back in the day, the boy was little more than a substitute soul reaper trying to help a friend, but now Ichigo is considered the savior of the Soul Society. Now, Ichigo and his allies are in the midst of war as Yhwach has pit his Quincy army against the world. We will see more of that warfare play out when Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War returns this fall, and thanks to a new clip, we are being teased with a long-awaited Bankai.

Over the weekend, I stumbled upon an exciting revelation while scrolling through Tite Kubo’s blog – the creator of Bleach! It seems that our beloved series is gearing up for a comeback this fall, and a tantalizing sneak peek has been shared. In the clip below, Ichibei finds himself in a nail-biting situation as he unleashes his ultimate Shikai form against Yhwach, only to be compelled to activate his Bankai before the battle takes an unexpected turn.

What Does Ichibei’s Terrifying Shikai Do?

It’s clear that Ichibei possesses immense strength given his role as leader of the Soul King’s guard. A recent clip demonstrates this power even further. Previously, various Soul Reapers have faced off with Ichigo, but none have been as intense as this confrontation. In this preview, we witness Ichibei employing the Futen Taisatsuryo against Yhwach.

The special Shikai ability is downright terrifying as it summons an inky black mausoleum to reality. The foreboding mausoleum is filled with shadows and shattered graves as it sucks in darkness. According to Ichibei, the mausoleum will rend the flesh, blood, and bones from any villain ensnared in its trap. And after being absorbed by the mausoleum, nothing will be left of the foe for reincarnation. This final Shikai skill is downright horrific given its visuals, and even Yhwach is properly frightened by its power. But of course, the leader of the new Quincy army isn’t so easily swayed from battle.

What to Expect from Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3

In this new installment of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, it’s clear that the upcoming season will be even more grim than what we’ve witnessed so far. Since its comeback, Ichigo has encountered some extreme hardships. From the annihilation of the Soul Society to Yamamoto’s demise, Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War spares no mercy in its grim narrative. As we continue to delve deeper into the story, Yhwach has yet to reveal his full might, while Ichigo still holds back his most powerful moves.

Are you excited about Bleach making a comeback? The third season is set to debut on October 5th, with a total of 13 episodes that will keep you entertained until the winter holidays. Moreover, the fourth and final season, titled Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, is planned for release in 2026. To catch up before its return, you can stream Bleach conveniently on platforms like Hulu or Disney+, as they have acquired distribution rights for both the original series and its sequel.
