When is Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 Episode 1 out? Full release schedule

Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 is about to kick off, and we’ve got all the details on when you can catch the penultimate chapter of Ichigo’s journey.

It’s hard to believe that Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 is almost here. Once this is down, we have Part 4 and then the entire anime show is finished. Wild, given we first met Ichigo back in 2001.

A lot has happened since then, leading us to the Gotei 13 and the Wandenreich having their last stand against one another. Pierrot will be pulling out all the stops, and you won’t want to miss a second.

Thanks to us, you won’t have to, as we’ve got all the information available on the release plan below.
