The 14th and final episode of the Bleach: Sennen Kessen-hen - Soukoku-tan (Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War - The Conflict) television anime announced on Saturday that the fourth part of the anime series, subtitled Kashin-tan (The Calamity Arc), will serve as the final season. The official website also revealed an announcement promo, a visual (pictured above), and a final episode visual for the current arc (pictured right).

Produced by Pierrot, the first part and second part aired in Fall 2022 and Summer 2023, respectively. The third part began airing on October 5. Hulu simulcast the anime series in the U.S. and subsequently streamed an English dub. Disney+ streamed the anime worldwide.

Sennen Kessen-hen (Thousand-Year Blood War) adapts the final arc of Tite Kubo's Bleach manga, which spans from the 55th to the 74th volume. Prior to the series' serialization, Kubo published a pilot chapter in December 2000. The action adventure manga debuted in Weekly Shounen Jump in August 2001. After a 15-year serialization, Kubo ended the series in August 2016. Shueisha published the 74th and final volume in November of that year.

VIZ Media acquired the series' master license in March 2006 and serialized the manga in English in its print edition of Shounen Jump magazine between November 2007 and March 2012. The manga concurrently moved to the Weekly Shonen Jump Alpha digital anthology in January 2012. The company published the 74th and final volume in October 2018 and released the 26th home video installment of the anime in September 2015.

The first television anime by Pierrot began airing in Fall 2004 and ended with 366 episodes in Winter 2012, covering the first 54 volumes. The manga also inspired four anime movies in 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2010 December.

Can't wait to see how this wraps up. There are only two more volumes left, which means there's plenty of wiggle room to make the remaining battles epic.

Nice, I want to watch it soon!

@branko7171 I guess Cant Fear Your Own World animation (either via OVAs or a seasonal) goes first.

And I guess Kubo would want manga Hell before anime hell.

We also can be blessed with Burn the Witch 2, in the waiting time...Bleachbros eating good for the next 5 years+

Oh I am so glad to witness this amazing journey. One year ahead of us!

@branko7171 I hope so too. Especially after reading that one shot.

Ok, so we're getting Hell Arc after that, right? Right?

Looking forward to it, I hope there will be many anime-original scenes since to be honest I'm not that satisfied with the manga :)

The last cour was the best one yet. Pierrot should be given time to cook another delicious meal.

It's really almost over, damn. What a ride this has been.

They started in fall two years back, so I hope we’d get the final cour by fall next year, at most.

Very hyped btw.

The 3rd cour was stellar, and I don't expect anything less from the 4th. I don't care Pierrot butchered Tokyo Ghoul and has a bad history, they did an incredible job with Bleach. Truly, it's one of the best if not the best anime of 2024 and don't change my mind.

Very nice. Can't wait to see the end for the peak or a sequel to the manga if the mangaka realize the potential
