Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 2 Separation release schedule explained
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 2 episode 1 was released back on July 8, 2023, as mentioned below. This ongoing installment of Bleach TYBW is slated to release 13 episodes.
The above table shows the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 2 release schedule. However, the date and time of the episodes are subject to change if Studio Pierrot announces them in the future.
There will be a break week between episodes 8 and 9, during which a recap episode will be aired instead. In a similar fashion to part 1, episodes 12 and 13 will be aired on the same day as an hour-long installment.
The first season of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War released 13 episodes which covered 62 chapters (480-542) from the Bleach manga. One of the highlights of the first season was Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto versus Yhwach's battle. The first Quincy invasion perfectly set up the mood for the rest of the season, and the fans witnessed greatness.
Since 13 episodes of the first part covered 62 chapters from the manga, it's expected that Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 2 will also cover around the same number of chapters. So far five episodes have been released, and covered chapters 543 to 565 chapters with many rearrangements in the middle. In other words, five episodes have covered 22 episodes.
The second part covered almost the same number of chapters as the first. The finale episode caught up to chapters 609-610 of the manga, leaving the battle between the Zero Squad and the Quinces on an anticipatory note. However, this leaves over 70 chapters to be covered in part 3, which is expected to be the final arc for TYBW anime. So much content might be challenging to adapt to their usual pace, but fans are hopeful Studio Pierrot will handle it well.
Coming to the release times of the episodes, Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 2 episodes release at 11:00 pm JST. As of now, only the second episode of the second installment has seen a delay of 30 minutes. Global fans can watch the episodes on Saturday, on multiple streaming platforms, such as Disney Plus, Hulu, Netflix, and Ani-One Asia YouTube channel.
