The wait for Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War Part 4 has been long, and the anticipation only continues to grow. With promises of new and original content, this final installment has the potential to reshape the legacy of one of anime’s most iconic franchises. Now, there is a confirmed date when fans can expect major news. On July 13, 2025, the Jump Victory Carnival in Tokyo will finally unveil what’s next for Ichigo and the Soul Society.
Studio Pierrot, the team behind Bleach, has confirmed that they will be revealing new information about the upcoming season at their booth during the event. This announcement comes just after Bleach’s appearance at Anime Expo 2025 in Los Angeles, fueling speculation that fans will finally get what they’ve been waiting for—a release window for the last chapter of the saga.
What makes Part 4 especially thrilling is the involvement of Tite Kubo himself. The original creator is working closely with the studio to add never before seen material to the anime, giving the final arc a refreshed direction. For many fans, this is a second chance to see Bleach conclude the way it was always meant to. The original manga ending felt rushed to some, but this anime version promises to expand on important moments and introduce new ones that could completely change how the story finishes.
From a production standpoint, there are only 25 chapters left in the manga to adapt. However, if the pacing of past episodes continues—roughly four chapters per episode—that would result in just six episodes. Given that each previous cour had thirteen to fourteen episodes, it is clear that there will be a significant amount of original content added to fill out the rest of the run. That additional material is exactly what fans are excited about. It allows the anime to not just animate the ending but reimagine it entirely.
Major battles are still on the horizon. Fans are eager to see Yoruichi and Urahara take on Askin, the chaotic showdown with Gerard Valkyrie, and of course, Ichigo’s final confrontation with Yhwach. These moments are set to deliver emotional payoffs and high stakes action, especially with Kubo’s fresh perspective guiding the narrative. It is not just about seeing these scenes animated. It is about experiencing them in a new way.
Whether you are a manga veteran or an anime only viewer, Part 4 promises to keep you on your toes. With so much original material expected, no one will know exactly how each episode will unfold. The Jump Victory Carnival announcement could provide the answers fans have been craving—an episode count, a release date, and maybe even a new trailer to set the tone.
If you are a fan of Bleach, July 13 is a day to watch closely. It is shaping up to be the moment when everything about the series’ future becomes clear.
