Summary

BLEACH is a popular shonen created by Tite Kubo in 2001 which has spawned a media franchise including a long-running anime adaptation, the return of the series onto the screen a decade later by the name 'Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War' for the final arc, a light novel sequel to the top-selling manga titled 'Bleach: Can't Fear Your Own World' alongside a one-shot called 'Bleach: New Breathes From Hell' expected to serialize as a further manga sequel. Bleach follows the adventures of Ichigo Kurosaki, a high school student who's always had the ability to see spirits. Although nothing more than just a quirk to him at first, one day he meets a Shinigami by the name of Rukia Kuchiki who phases into his room in pursuit of a Hollow - monstrous lost spirits that devour the souls of humans in the World of the Living. Shinigami are otherworldly soldiers who have a duty in purifying these corrupted spirits alongside the benign Plus spirits in order to ensure the circle of transmigration and regulate the flow of souls for the sake of the balance of the universe. Ichigo, who has always had an indomitable will to protect, soon finds himself becoming a Shinigami after an injured Rukia lends him her powers in order to save his sister from the pursued Hollow, and is now tasked with protecting the occupants of Karakura Town. The series starts off exploring Ichigo and his spiritually-empowered friends' daily lives. However, as they become increasingly involved with the Shinigami and Hollows, they eventually find themselves setting on a journey to various ghostly realms of existence, and later on, against another thought to have been long-gone group and historical enemies of the Shinigami; all whilst forcing Ichigo to unravel himself in his own inner world as well.

Similar to another member of the "Holy Shounen Trinity", Bleach started out relatively modestly powerful and gained increasingly impressive feats as the series progressed, eventually seeing a massive escalation of power levels in the war arc finale. As of the last arc, Bleach boasts of High-tiers ranging from City level+ all the way up to Country level, Top-tiers ranging from Multi-Continent level to Small Planet level, and the god-tiers sitting at Multi-Solar System level to Multi-Galaxy level, with some having Universe level, possibly Universe level+ power in Environmental Destruction or Destructive Capacity. The verse is also speedy, with even lower seated Arrancar and members of the Gotei 13 being at least Massively Hypersonic, while a Captain level or above character being Massively Hypersonic+ to Sub-Relativistic, and the divine layer reaching Relativistic to FTL+ speeds; while Merged Hollow Form Ichigo in Bankai is at MFTL.

However, where Bleach is most potent is in the numerous and various powerful hax it posseses, such as: Reality Warping, Existence Erasure, Fear Manipulation, Power Nullification, Power Absorption, Causality Manipulation, Probability Manipulation, Conceptual Manipulation, Time Manipulation, Spatial Manipulation, Sense Manipulation, Memory Manipulation, Reactive Evolution, Durability Negation, Intangibility, Biological Manipulation, Poison Manipulation, Absolute Zero, etc.

Due to the spiritual nature of the verse and its mechanics, the majority of the cast can interact with non-corporeal entities, with the Quincy even erasing souls when slayed. Correspondingly, Shinigami and Hollows cannot be seen without spiritual power. In addition, most characters are capable of Flight, and can also open portals to different dimensions, which makes conventional BFR difficult against them. All races have access to their own types of techniques which can be used with varying degrees of proficiency. Shinigami have access to Kidō spells, which range from attacking (Hadō), defending, binding and sealing (Bakudō), and healing (Kaidō). Quincy can manipulate the surrounding energy, and take this basic technique to its extreme by enslaving it and absorbing a victim down to the molecular level (Sklaverei), create puppet strings of energy to operate paralyzed or crippled body parts (Ransōtengai), and use Blut Arterie and Blut Vene to enhance their offensive and defensive capabilities respectively.

    Blut (血装 (ブルート), Burūto; German for "Blood", Japanese for "Blood Guise"): A Quincy ability that gives one inhuman defensive and offensive capability by making Reishi flow into their blood vessels.

    Bringer Light (完現光 (ブリンガーライト), Buringā Raito; lit. "Full Manifestation Light"): Fullbringers can induce states of high-speed movement through Fullbring. Such movements are accompanied by the flickering of a green luminescence called which is the preliminary for each high-speed movement. This speed is achieved through a variety of different uses of Fullbring. By pulling on the soul of the ground beneath their feet, Fullbringers can increase its elasticity, greatly enhancing their jumping ability as a result. In addition, by Fullbringing the air around them, they can accelerate their movements. Doing so can consequentially strengthen the force of their blows.

    Dangai: (断界, Parsing World), also known as the Precipice World, is the dimension between Soul Society and the Human World, separated from space and time.

    Garganta (黒腔 (ガルガンタ), Garuganta; Spanish for "Throat", Japanese for "Black Cavity"): is how Arrancar and Hollows move to and from Hueco Mundo.

    Hakuda (白打, White Hits): is a close-combat style of fighting, in which one is unarmed and uses only one's body, and is one of the four basic fighting styles of the Shinigami. Captain Suì-Fēng of the 2nd Division excels in this style. High-speed Taijutsu (体術, Body Skill) attacks are used to overwhelm the opponent. Physical strength and skill is determined by this class. It seems to be a combination of several martial arts.

    Hirenkyaku (飛廉脚, Flying Screen Step; Viz: "Flying Bamboo-Blind Leg"): is an advanced Quincy movement technique, allowing the user to move at high speed by riding on the flow of Reishi created below their feet. Essentially, it is the Quincy equivalent to the Shinigami's Shunpo and the Arrancar's Sonído.

    Hohō (歩法, Step Method; Viz "Fast Movement"): is a defensive style of fighting which relates to footwork, it is one of the four basic combat skills of the Shinigami. Hohō is an important skill for most Shinigami, which incorporates speed and agility. The skill level of Hohō can be enhanced and improved through concentration, training, and mastery of it.

    • Shunpo (瞬歩, Flash Steps): is a movement technique which allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow. The focal point which determines the basis of this technique is speed. As speed is the main factor of the technique, the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from point A to point B in the least amount of steps. Training and skill are what determines how fast a user of Shunpo can move; users of little skill in the technique or those who have not used it for an extended period of time would obviously be out of practice, causing them to be considerably slower, which requires the use of more steps to move the same distance and become winded in a shorter amount of time.

    Kidō (鬼道, Demon/Spirit Way; Viz "Soul Reaper's powers"/"Spells"; sometimes translated as "Demon Arts"): is a form of Shinigami combat based on advanced spells. These spells are produced with strong Reiryoku and fall into two categories: Hadō for direct attacks, and Bakudō for battle support. It is one of the techniques in the Zankensoki, the group of Shinigami primary combat skills. Kidō spells are triggered by an incantation. Experienced users can trigger them without an incantation, though the effectiveness of the spell may be diminished.

    Muken (無間, Avici): is the eighth and final level of the underground prison. Muken is a voided space completely sealed off from the outside world, aside from the main tower that serves as the entrance and exit. The realm has the illusion of stretching to infinity.

    Reiatsu (霊圧, Spiritual Pressure): is the physical force/pressure that a person’s Reiryoku creates when released. Most Shinigami, Arrancar and Quincy can manipulate the release of their Reiatsu.

    • Reikaku: (霊覚, Spiritual Sense) or "Reiatsu Chikaku" (霊圧知覚, Spiritual Pressure Perception). The senses by which one feels and pick up on Reiatsu. Every person that has Reiatsu subconsciously uses both their sense of vision and their Reikaku at the same time in order to see. When concentrating in the midst of battle, Reikaku takes over an overwhelming amount of perception. In other words, the subconscious begins to stop seeing with “eyes”.

    Reiraku (霊絡, Spirit Coils): are the visualization of Reiryoku into ribbons, which spiritually aware beings can follow.

    Reiryoku (霊力, Spiritual Power): is a power aligned with the spiritual sensitivity and willpower of the user. It is used by Shinigami and other spiritual beings to provide power for their various abilities.

    Reishi (霊子, Spirit Particles): is the main component material of Souls and all spiritual matter.

    Sonído (響転 (ソニード), Sonīdo; Spanish for "Sound", Japanese for "Sound Ceremony"): is a high-speed movement technique of the Arrancar. It is equivalent to the Shinigami's Shunpo and the Quincy's Hirenkyaku, which are roughly equal in terms of speed.

    Zanjutsu (斬術, Swordsmanship; Viz "Art of the Sword"; Cutting Technique): is the fighting style for the Zanpakutō (i.e. sword fighting) and is one of the four basic fighting styles of the Shinigami. It is shameful for a Shinigami to not master at least this technique. It is the specialty of Captain Kenpachi Zaraki of the 11th Division.

    Considering the involvement of Tite Kubo, in the anime's production and the potential inclusion of additional content, this policy outlines the criteria for considering the anime as canon and addresses potential conflicts between the anime and the original manga:

    • The Bleach anime adaptation's Thousand-Year Blood War arc is primary canon to the main story of Bleach. This stance is based on Tite Kubo's extensive involvement in the anime's creation, including his supervision of various production stages and the inclusion of content not present in the manga. The anime is viewed as an opportunity to present a more comprehensive and complete rendition of Kubo's vision for the TYBW arc.
    • In light of the comprehensive nature of the anime adaptation, content presented in the anime takes precedence over the original manga, given Kubo's involvement and the potential for content enhancement.
      • In the event that significant changes, including feats, statements, scaling, or abilities, are introduced in the anime that diverge from the manga, the anime version will be considered the improved and authoritative iteration. Consequently, any conflicting or divergent content from the manga will be superseded by the anime's portrayal.
