Bleach: The Thousand-Year Blood War - Part 3: The Conflict is expected to arrive in 2024. Until then, check out the latest news from the Bleach Anime Section: HERE! ~ The BA staff.
I couldn't see Ichigo at first, because I kept looking at the corners. Then I gave up planning to ask if anybody here from the forum sees him. And then - BAM - he's right there, together with the central characters.
I can't remember if I've shared this, but you can download the official icons/backgrounds of Ichigo's TYBW anime key visual: https://bleach-anime.com/digicon-15/
The other day my friend sent me a YouTube link to the trailer for the final arc of Bleach. It has been a long time, but it reminded me of the time that I spent on this website. I think it has been about 6 or 7 years since I last visited here.
I too am excited to watch it; the animations look fantastic.
In the livestream of Bleach show on Jump Festa, this was shown before the launch of the TYBW teaser to give the overview of Bleach anime:
It was a really nostalgic trip down memory lane when I watched it live before the teaser reveal.
A user named "slicknick141414" has upscaled the official teaser into 4k...This is especially for those people who want to make HQ wallpapers from the teaser to whatever frame they pause at and/or further edit them as you like. Even though if your screen resolution is not in 4k, you can still use third-party pics captures or media players with those features that do the job to take the frames in 4k and then you can make them your wallpapers in HQ...The user has also taken some screens from the upscaled 4k teaser...Since Twitter compresses the pictures, they not in 4k but it gives you a gist though. The idea is to make your own directly from the teaser itself.
======================================
I also want to talk a little bit about the new director Tomohisa Taguchi. In the official Bleach anime site, it's written: "The director and series composition is Tomohisa Taguchi, who has demonstrated his outstanding visual sense in many works." In the past, I have seen two animated works out of his all in which he was the director. One is Kino's Journey---the Beautiful World (2017). (I have seen the 2003 one too). The other anime I watched him being a director is Akudama Drive (produced by Pierrot).
Based on those two, I can't say anything concrete for conclusion, but he does have a personalized style of directing with emphasis on colours and visual sense. For example, in the teaser, you can easily see how the purple shade has a stronger influence on Ichigo Kurosaki in both foreground and backgroundt because of contrast by illumination. He really likes to have a darker atmosphere with specific emphasis on colours like aqua colour having an influence on Yhwach's face and clothes in the dark scene. If you have seen Akudama Drive, you would see that personalized style everywhere.
So yeah, that's something I wanted to say. This would be a challenging project for him, and we would we see what he does with it when the series would be broadcasted. I really hope the battles and fights are good.
I am very happy that Kudo is the character designer. Just like the name Kubo and Kudo is an optical illusion in English, I personally can never guess that a character is drawn by Kudo or Kubo unless it's specified. I can't think of anyone replacing him as a character designer for the Bleach anime. I am also very happy for Shirou Sagisu. He's the heartbeat of this series when it comes to music.
Some context: Inoue is not to be confused with Orihime from BLEACH. This Inoue is a Japanese comedian from "NON STYLE" which is a Japanese comedy duo by him and Akira. Miyama is Karen Miyama who is an actress and voice actress. BLEACH anime stuff starts from 13:55 on the video in that TVTokyo link above.
I don't know what they were saying, but it appears they were describing the story and perhaps some character relations. I suppose Bleach will be a part of more shows like the one above as the anime release date would draw nearer.
That would be nice. Those 2 novels are practically canon.
I suppose that the WDKALY is far easier to produce seeing that it's practically slice of life. The CFYOW is more complex, a political thriller and an action spectacle.
But, first and foremost, I wish the TYBW anime arc does well.
I mean if TYBW does really well, then both novels can get animated. The anime website expires around 2031 so even if they make TYBW seasonal, they still need something to add on there.
Btw I didn't even know this place existed until right now lol
