While fans were hoping for the final episode to adapt more content from the manga, the anime instead ended with a promotional segment, featuring Kon. The character has been missing from the series for a very long time. He was last seen in the anime's first part during Ichigo's training at the Soul King Palace.
Right after the episode ended, as expected, the anime announced the sequel part to the anime, titled Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War - The Conflict.
When will Bleach TYBW Part 3 be released?
Bleach TYBW Part 3 will be released in 2024. The anime announced the same with a key visual and teaser trailer. The key visual featured Ishida Uryu aiming his arrow at his enemy, whose identity wasn't revealed. As for the teaser trailer, it showcased Yhwach and some visuals possibly surrounding the Soul King. However, it did not openly show much about the next part, except for its 2024 release window.
Bleach TYBW Part 1 was released back in the Fall 2022 anime season, following which, Bleach TYBW Part 2 was released in the Summer 2023 anime season. Considering the delay worth two anime seasons between the two parts, fans can expect the same to happen for Bleach TYBW Part 3. Hence, Bleach TYBW Part 3 can be expected to be released in the Spring 2024 anime season.
How many parts will Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War?
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War anime is touted to have a total of four parts. The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc spans from chapters 480 to 686 of the manga. That said, the second part of the anime was finished by adapting the manga chapter 609 partially. With over 77 chapters worth of content left, the anime is bound to release at least two more parts.
However, this could change if Studio Pierrot decides to change the series' format for the upcoming anime. However, the possibility for the same is very bleak. Moreover, if there were any huge changes to the series' plan, it might have been announced alongside the key visual and teaser trailer release.
