Bankai! Bleach's Return Officially Confirmed

If you were one of the many anime fans that believed that ending the Bleach series without the manga's final arc was doing the series a serious disservice, then you are in luck. Today the Weekly Shonen Jump officially confirmed the longstanding rumours of Ichigo and the rest of gangs' return to the anime world. 

Bleach will be returning to our screens next year for an adaptation of the Thousand Year Blood War arc! (FINALLY!)

Revealed as part of a series of announcements to commemorate the original manga’s 20th anniversary in 2021, this long-awaited series will finally shine the spotlight on the hostile relationship between the Soul Reapers and Quincy that was teased in the early days of the manga.

The good news don't stop there as Burn the Witch, Tite Kubo’s manga one-shot about two witches working for the Western branch of Soul Society, will also be receiving an anime adaptation by Studio Colorido (Penguin Highway, Pokémon: Twilight Wings) this autumn.

​Who are we kidding? 2020 just ain't it so far. To lessen the grim impact of this cruel world, you have to look for happiness in much of the little things as you can. News of the Bleach anime series returning has definitely put a pep back into my steps.
