BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War (TYBW) Part 4 has revealed the preview for Episode 4 (Episode 44 overall). The anime returned with the fourth and final cour, subtitled The Calamity, on July 25. It is set to run for 10 episodes. The anime premiered early in US theaters with the first three episodes.
The fourth episode is titled “THE PERFECT CRIMSON,” and it will premiere on Saturday, August 15. Even with Kenpachi, Hitsugaya, and Byakuya fighting together, they cannot overcome Gerard’s “Miracle.” Driven by pure battle instinct, Kenpachi charges at Gerard, but every time Gerard’s “Sword of Hope” is chipped, it triggers yet another “Miracle,” gradually turning the tables and pushing Kenpachi into a corner. Meanwhile, in the throne room, Ichigo endures Yhwach’s relentless assault while searching for a chance to turn the battle around.
Created by Tite Kubo, BLEACH was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2001 to 2016 and concluded with 74 volumes. The franchise returned in 2022 to adapt the final arc, with Tite Kubo confirming that Part 4 will include even more original material than previous cours.
