BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 4 – “The Calamity” Opening and Closing Videos Released
BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War series' final part, Part 4 – “The Calamity,” has officially shared its opening and closing videos. The released clips give fans the opportunity to see the new season's visual style and music in detail for the first time. These videos are considered one of the strongest signs that the long-awaited final season will begin soon.
According to previous announcements, the opening song for this season is titled “The Calamity” and is performed by LiSA. The closing song is “Requiem”, produced by UVERworld. Both videos combine exciting action scenes and emotional character moments, offering a spoiler-free yet anticipation-peaking preview. Studio Pierrot's high-quality animation is ready to impress fans in this final season as well.
To recall, the BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War adaptation premiered in October 2022. Adapting the final arc of Tite Kubo's manga of the same name, the series will conclude after three seasons with the fourth season. Part 1 “The Blood Warfare,” Part 2 “The Separation,” and Part 3 “The Conflict” were released between 2022 and 2024. Part 4 is expected to debut in 2025, likely in the last quarter (October-December). An official date has not been announced yet, but the release of the videos indicates that production is in its final stages.
This final season will cover the ultimate conflict between the Soul Society's Quincy Emperor Yhwach and Ichigo Kurosaki. For manga readers, this arc hosts some of the series' most striking and emotional moments. Of course, it is known that Tite Kubo is actively involved in the adaptation, and some scenes not fully explored in the manga are expanded in the anime. As in previous seasons, Part 4 is expected to include original content and new fight scenes.
In particular, the subtitle “The Calamity” refers to the great destruction and turning point of the war. In the opening video, Bankai moments, alliances of former enemies, and the shadow of loss stand out. Fan communities have already started generating theories based on these images. As Bleach's long-running journey approaches its end, these new trailers have triggered both nostalgia and great excitement.
When Part 4's release date is finalized, it will likely be announced with a special world premiere or an online event. It is expected to be simulcast worldwide on Crunchyroll and other platforms. For Bleach fans, this final season will mark the end of an era. This final preparation, with new visuals and music, heralds that the eagerly awaited finale is drawing near.
