The Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War anime has entered its final stretch. On Friday, October 16, 2026, the production released a promotional video titled THE LAST PV, preparing fans for the last two episodes of the adaptation of Tite Kubo's final manga arc.
Episodes 49 and 50 will air on October 19 and 26, 2026, respectively, at midnight in Japan on TV Tokyo and affiliates. Internationally, subtitled versions arrive on Hulu and Disney+ on the same days.
What the trailer shows
THE LAST PV begins with a recap of the events leading Ichigo Kurosaki and Yhwach to their decisive confrontation throughout the Thousand-Year Blood War. The second half highlights the intense battles from episode 48, "THE END TWO WORLD," where Yhwach appears in the three realms (Seireitei, Human World, and Hueco Mundo).
