Ichigo's Intro | BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War | VIZ

Ichigo Kurosaki. Substitute Soul Reaper. Put some respect on his name. 😏⚔️

#BANKAI! ⚔️ GETSUGA TENSHO!!! 🗣

[Just_Some_Guy_with_a_Mustache]

He didn't have to go Bankai for a bunch of normal Hollows. He knew we were here. He did that for us after all these years.

[WeyardWiz]

Let's be honest, he went bankai just to FLEX on everyone after a decade 🔥🔥

[xenogoku]

That "Ban...Kai" is so monumental, so legendary, so iconic. There's only one way to say it and Ichigo nails it everytime!

[aloysiusmaina]

I love how he always says he's a Substitute Soul Reaper when he's just about the most important entity in the spiritual world... So humble 😍

[SoulMadnessYT]

This is the kind of fanservice I love, they knew exactly how to welcome us back after 10 years.

[carlospena]

How does a show come back after 10 years and NOT miss a beat???🤩🤩

[dst]

I literally was crying tears of joy, the goat is back my friends

[AndereundIch]

"We vice captains and above limit our reiatsu to not cause harm to the world of the living."

Ichigo: "And i took that personaly"

[anilloc]

We definitely can feel the joy of Ichigo's VA saying bankai and getsugatensho

[christinajoanne]

Saw it at NYCC. It was a whole different experience sitting with fans of the show, 2000 people screaming cheering with you! I’ll never forget it

[animanco]

Hearing Bankai and Getsuga Tenshio after 10 years just put a huge smile on my face. WELCOME BACK BLEACH

[Jaigantic]

I screamed at the top of my lungs with Ichigo when he said getsuga tensho. We have lost many brothers and sisters along the way who have been fans of bleach, so let's celebrate this moment in memory of them as well 😤❤️

THIS IS HOW YOU RE-INTRODUCE A MAIN CAST AFTER A

[vonnstevens]

Crazy how this ep 1 is reaching a year old already and it’s still amazing to this day to finally see bleach back in action🔥🔥

[haydenbennett]

The character re-introduction scene was just perfect. Its so reassuring that Bleach has returned.

I saw this for the first time at the VIZ world premiere at New York Comic Con two days before it aired. Tears were definitely shed. The feeling of seeing Orihime’s powers first come on the screen and knowing that Ichigo and the whole gang is finally back on screen after 10 years and are about to save the day. Just seeing Ichigo come up on the screen and hearing Number One was just so much. The feelings that all Bleach fans feel for this return is indescribable. These characters have been through so much and have grown so much, and are about to experience so much more. So much nostalgia, pride, and love, for this return. The return of Bleach is long deserved and we have all waited so long. The amount of care, effort, attention to detail, and thoughtfulness that the entire team has behind the anime adaptation of TYBW is so visible. I definitely cried seeing this return finally, and I know so many other Bleach fans feel the same. A lot of people thought the anime wouldn’t come back, and we finished the manga in 2016, but I know so many of us still had the hope and the knowing feeling in our hearts that one day Bleach will return. That day has finally come. My thoughts, love, and prayers are with the Bleach fans that have passed away before seeing this, or passed away before hearing the announcement that Bleach is back. Our hearts are all one on this day. After 10 years, the wait is finally over. It is still so surreal that it is BACK. Bleach deserves this so much. Words cannot express what this means. Thank you, Kubo, for creating the beauty that is Bleach. BLEACH IS FINALLY BACK! ❤️❤️❤️

[DeathWishProject]

Ichigo yelling bankai has always been the best, but is just hits different after a 10 year wait. Feel it in my soul

[TheArtofJohnKelekele]

Shiro Sagisu and Taguchi working together is a blessing 🤩 the animation and music of this scene was incredible. Can’t wait to see more!!

[ImpactFrame]

After years of voicing Whis in Dragon Ball media, Masakazu Morita still nailed that BAN-KAI! Goosebumps

[sekIoz]

It ain’t a bankai without the pause, I’m so happy bleach is back. This is why it’s one of the big 3!
