It follows the adventures of Ichigo, a young man who finds himself trapped in a world of Shinigami and death. The anime series ended in 2014, years before the original manga ended. Because of this, followers of Ichigo and friends have been expecting the return of the anime series for years. Their dreams finally came true a few months ago, when it was revealed that a sequel to the original anime will be released later this year.

Up until a few hours ago, the series was hyped to no end amongst fans of the franchise, until some gloomy news was released. Why Disney purchasing the rights to Bleach Thousand Year Blood War is bad news for fans Sugoi LITE (OECUF)@SugoiLITETV Anime "BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War" – Streaming License Acquired by Disney+.89481401TV Anime "BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War" – Streaming License Acquired by Disney+. https://t.co/IJOEKwh3ZW International fans have been waiting to find out which streaming service will provide them with new Bleach content. Sadly for many of them, recent speculation suggests that Disney Plus will be the new home for Ichigo and his allies. Fans are dreading this news, as Disney has a record of censoring and butchering any kind of anime the company gets its hands on. The best example of this phenomenon is the infamous Disney adaptation of Ghibli films, which are considered to be some of the worst anime films ever. HandheldGamer@HandheldGCould you imagine if Disney wanted to do a live action adaptation of a Studio Ghibli movieCould you imagine if Disney wanted to do a live action adaptation of a Studio Ghibli movie News of Disney acquiring the rights to Thousand-Year Blood War is still mainly speculation. Until we have an official announcement about the news, we cannot be certain if this new season will in fact be available on Disney’s streaming platform. Final thoughts Leonic458@Leonic458JF#bleach #DisneyPlus Come, and buy. The thousand year blood war merch the ambassador wakame288#bleach #DisneyPlus Come, and buy. The thousand year blood war merch the ambassador wakame https://t.co/IVscaqHR1I Having easy access to anime is one of the blessings of a globalized world. However, this can be equally as bad in some cases, like Bleach’s. Disney has never been a company particularly interested in anime. Their latest attempt at anime, Star Wars: Visions, was received with divided reviews. As such, Bleach fans are concerned about the future of the new season. While they are afraid of Disney censoring and messing with important portions of the plot, it is unlikely the executives would allow this. Disney Plus already has a plethora of mature content, so the series will probably be left untouched.

Fans can only wait and hope that Disney has learned from their mistakes and will do better this time around.
