Want to know what the characters of the new Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War arc will look like? Well, as it turns out, Bleach themselves have that ready just for us. Just read on below.
All the Character Designs You Could Ever Want
The official website for Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War has just released a whole bunch of character designs. Not only do we get to see what Ichigo Kurosaki himself will look like in this final arc, but also his immediate friends from Karakura Town. His allies in theSoul Society are also present, but they’re not the only ones accounted for. We also finally get to see the Quincies of the Wandenreich (or the “Invisible Empire” if you directly translate their Japanese name). They’re a rather odd-looking bunch, but frankly no more so than the captains of Soul Society. Really, the only thing that’s missing is their voices. Fortunately, they actually list the Japanese voice talents for them, so if you’re familiar with their voices from other anime, you can already imagine what they would sound like. You can see a small sample of what I mean below:
You can check out the full cast of characters and their designs on the official website link above. Or you can also wait for Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War to make its debut sometime in October 2022. Unfortunately, we still don’t actually know which anime streaming service will stream it yet. It’s likely going to be Crunchyroll, but even that isn’t certain. Tune back in later to find out when we do.
