I have been yearning for a bleach arena fighter for over a decade but I have a feeling this is going to be disappointing. Compare this games rollout/trailers to Sparking Zero and it really seems like Bandai are trying to show as little gameplay as possible. I also would have preferred an art style that matches the anime more like Naruto Storm or FighterZ, but instead went with this heavy, clunky Tekken like style that I don't think suits the characters very well. I hope I am wrong about all of this and I'm just being cynical! Still early days yet
Ngl i could see a Fullbringer Arc expansion but i definitely do not see them covering TYBW until a sequel comes out if the game is a success and the TYBW anime will be complete by then
That's like waiting for the Majin Buu Saga's Inclusion in the Next Game Installment which eventually did in DBZ: Budokai 2, because it was not in the previous Entry due to Time Constraints, so they Cut most of the Content to save it for the Sequel.
Same a dlc Expansion Arc and next sequel game it might just start at that part again! Then end at "CFYOW" the Final arc in bleach. then we can get a rebirth of soul 3 where all arcs are in the game! Redone again but much better!
I'm really loving your channel. I started reading bleach on May of this year. I'm currently on volume 54. I wish I read or watched bleach earlier because Bleach is so good
As you have been watching this channel you likely already know, but pay very close attention to art and word. Kubo hides so much in small details that means so much to the story.
I don't see all the Vizard making it; after seeing Kira, I sort of do also imagine a few other Lieutenants but mostly those with notable roles in the phase you showed, like Momo or Nemu; even Omaeda could sneak in.
after shinji and hiyori hachi should be the 3rd one as he defeated barragan weird that some people forgot that he has more role to play than the other vizards
Most of my favorites have already been announced, like Gin, Yoruichi, Zaraki Kenpachi, and Urahara. The others I’m still waiting for are Shunsui and Yamamoto.
I'm just imagining people pairing Zaraki and Unohana just to be Iconic, and let's not forget rematches of Yhwach and Yamamoto XD! Personally can't wait!!!
The budokai 1 music really adds so much hype for me lol I was so exited for DBZ Budokai 1 when I was a kid and I'm ecstatic for Rebirth of Souls. There's so much potential considering what we've already seen and I'm absolutely stoked to play it!
Bleach Rebirth of Souls full roster looks a FREAKING AMAZING can't wait to play as Ichigo, Chad, Orihime, Rukia, Ishida, Byakya, Renji, Urahara, Yoruichi, Ichimaru, Kira, Tousen, Komamura, Kenpachi, Ikkaku, Toshiro, Rangiku, Soi Fon, Yumichika, Hinamori, Kenpachi, Kyouraku, Ukitake, Yamamoto, Ulquiorra, Grimmjow, Nel, Harribel, Fullbringers Rurika, Dirty Boots, Tsukishima, Grimmjow, PS Vita boy, Bar Master Hulk-like guy sorry don't remember their names, Bount girl, Kariyah, Aizen and every other Bleach characters there will be so MUCH of them, but defienitily i'm the most HYPED for my FAVOURITE Bleach character a Black Cat the God of Thunder Yoruichi and the gameplay looks so AWESOME 2025 and Rebirth of Souls Here we go: BAN...KAI! 😊❤
Gin already has his Bankai as his awakening, so there's going to only be one, but I do think that we are going to get a second Tosen. I actually don't see them adding butterfly Aizen and not include dangai Ichigo. I don't think that we are getting Jujiro or wonderweiss, nor do I think Tessai is popular enough to be in. I would expect momo before him because she is really important during the soul society arc
Ain’t no way that you choose butterfly aizen but don’t choose dangai Ichigo to be his rival, they are literally pre order early access characters, hype and rivals
Bro we are not getting every Vice Captain, half of them don't do nothing, we getting Kira, Rangiku, Renji, Shuhei, Momo, Ikkaku and Yumichika, if we are lucky we may get Omaeda and Nemu but thats it.
Im Betting CRAKK that Mayuri is gonna be in the game.He's got multiple important fights with important character like Uryu and Szalyaporo under his belt and is Kubo's Favorite character.
Hopefully theirs tybw versions for dlc cause after all the big improvements to kenpachi it would be a shame not being able to use his shikai or bankai or uraharas bankai
I’d like to see some of these characters get original movesets to fill in with their lack of screen time in the manga/anime (looking at some of the Vizards, Ukitake, Unohana, etc.)
My biggest Hail Mary wish for this game would be Noel and Ninny from Burn the Witch as guest characters, it would be the coolest thing ever and a great love letter to Kubo’s work
50 - 60 roster would be the sweet spot for my ideal bleach fighting game 1st installment 40 roster is ok and 35 would be the minimum for me hope its a successful one and have fullbring as dlc story arc then the sequel will be the tybw arc one and hoping the shall not be name arc as a dlc also what about burn the witch? do you think we can get them as dlc or secret unlockable?
This game is actually the first game to cover from the beginning of Bleach all the way to the end of the Arrancar arc. Soul Resurreccion ONLY covered the Arrancar arc and started at the Hueco Mundo infiltration. Heat the Soul 7 story takes place only during the Arrancar arc as well, the large roster is only because they copy and pasted characters from previous games.
14:59 Nah you're wrong with Gin here. Tosen I agree with cos his second variant will be his hollow mask and his awakening will be his resurrection. But with Gin, as you already saw with his character reveal trailer he literally uses his entire moveset including his bankai so moveset wise there is nothing left for another variant. He will only be getting an arrancar arc costume.
After Kira's inclusion I don't get how you could leave out Momo when she played a huge role in Aizen's plan during the Soul Society arc. She will have several scenes in story mode for sure so I think she's in.
Dude I'm hyped! If your predictions turn out to be true, how likely is it that they proceed to the TYBW if they so choose? What about Orihime with her Shunshun Rikka? I'd be fine too if they just made up some cool moves for her. And Burn the Witch DLC by the end perhaps.
Honestly, I can see reawakenings be used to add to certain characters. Someone like Tosen can have the arrancar costume as a cosmetic change and still have his resurreccion as a reawakening. Same with Gin and his bankai
It seems like they’re trying to have as many story battles as possible involve playable characters. So I hope that means even less popular characters like the fracciones are present. It’s the kind of benefit that comes with not trying to cover the entire story in the first game. If they went to TYBW, they likely wouldn’t have been able to include characters like Rangiku or SS versions like Tosen.
If they make a sequel to this game, the true "Zangetsu" will be playable - no idea how his mechanics will work though. Maybe perfect dodge for a certain period of time while the Almighty is activated?
They could use different forms as skins. Aizen butterfly could have ultimate attack kurohitsugi while TYBW Aizen would have Goryuutenmetsu They would have the same damage or you would have to unlock a new skin through playing this specific character (I know it will be untill arrancar arc, that's just an example of how the mechanics could work)
I would include momo, she is very important in the begining of the SS arc and she is also the setup for the fight between Gin and Toshiro. I would also exclude some vizoreds, like Kensei, Lisa, love and Mashiro since they do not bring any cool features in terms of gameplay and they represent little to the battles in the fake karakura war (I would include Hyori tho, cuz for some reason she is a fan favorite and people'd get pissed if she's not in) Would also include all captains, even Unohana because they're the soul of the series basically, they'd not miss the oportunity. None of the Privaron Espadas I think will be playable dunno maybe dordoni? Tousen definetly needs another character slot, but Gin doesn't. I also think that ryuken is not that likely to show up. And I think that Dangai Ichigo is a must have.
For komamura, I believe he won’t get a tybw version when the DLCS drop and instead he will just get a optional skin that makes him human and his bankai have no armor
I already made the roster i think would happen. Based on 9 different Bleach games (no prequels counted). The official Bleach popularity poll made in 2022, which is the only official poll made after the TYBW arc finished. Then there's MrTommo's fan-based popularity poll. First is a 50 character roster, then i went by most to least likely in pairs of 10. Though for this game i think 50-60 is about right. Anyway this is it: Bleach Ultimate Roster (50): Ichigo, Ichigo (Bankai/Hollowfication), Ichigo (Dangai), White (Ichigo), Rukia, Orihime, Chad, Uryu, Renji, Kon, Isshin, Kisuke, Yoruichi, Ururu, Ganju, Byakuya, Kenpachi, Yachiro, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Hitsugaya, Rangiku, Hinamori, Kira, Mayuri, Soifon, Komamura, Hisagi, Shunsui, Ukitake, Unohana, Yamamoto, Shinji, Hiyori, Luppi, Nelliel, Yammy, Aaroniero, Szayelaporro, Zommari, Grimmjow, Nnoitra, Ulquiorra, Harribel, Baraggan, Starrk, Tosen, Gin, Aizen, Aizen (Hogyoko) Roster (60): Zangetsu, Omaeda, Hanataro, Kensei, Mashiro, Rojuro, Love, Lisa, Hachigen, Ayon Roster (70): Don Kanonji, Kaien, Nemu, Iba, Nanao, Isane, Chojiro, Dordoni, Cirucci, Gentenbainne Roster (80): Emilou, Franceska, Sung Sun, Charlotte, Abirama, Findorr, Choe Neng Poww, Ggio Vega, Nirgge, Lilynette Roster (90): Rudbornn, Loly, Pesche, Dondochakka, Shawlong, Edrad, Nakeem, Yylfordt, Di Roy Rinker, Wonderweiss Roster (100): Ryuken, Tessai, Jinta, Fishbone D, Acidwire, Shrieker, Grand Fisher, Numb Chandelier, Bulbous G, Menos Grande Roster (110): Tensa Zangetsu, Tatsuki, Karin, Kukaku, Akon, Jirobo, Tatsufusa, Zennosuke, Menoly, Tesla That is how much i could really stretch it without adding Fullbring or TYBW characters. Though realistically i could see them getting in after the 60 character mark. Again, this is just a thought experiment. Here's most to least likely from those arcs (and novels) imo: Roster (120): Ginjo, Tsukishima, Riruka, Bazz-B, As Nodt, Gremmy, Bambietta, Askin, Haschwalth, Yhwach Roster (130): Ichibei, Senjumaru, Oetsu, Hikifune, Tenjiro, Quilge, Candice, Meninas, Giselle, Liltotto Roster (140): Ichigo (Fullbring), Ichigo (True Zanpakuto), Yukio, Jackie, Giriko, Moe, Mask De Masculine, Pernida, Lille Barro, Gerard Roster (150): White (Hollow), Masaki, Driscoll, Shaz, Cang Du, BG9, Robert, Nanana, Pepe, Nianzol Roster (160): Jerome, Berenice, Azashiro (SAFWY Novel), Kuruyashiki (SAFWY Novel), Cien Granz (SAFWY Novel), Roka (Novels), Aura (CFYOW Novel), Seinosuke (CFYOW), Tokinada (CFYOW), Hikone (CFYOW Novel)
This game is probably going to have 35 characters launch roster, I’m going to be honest I don’t see ryuken, yammy, jushiro, szayelaporro, zamari, ishin, hyori, white and preverion most likely won’t make it in.
Poor Shikai spamming Momo neglected lol. I think if Rangiku and Izuru made it in, Momo is definitely likely. Maybe Yachiru, Omaeda and Nemu might make the cut too.
Did they reveal the total number of playable characters in the game? Anyway, that's based, over the Karakura group + Urahara & Co, the 13 captains, the most relevant lieutenants, the 8 Vizards and the 10 Espadas (+Nel) must be included. Good if there are also Isshin and Ryuken, Tessai, the Privaron, Wonderweiss, etc. I think other forms or transformations of those above up the Arrancars can be included too. I would be surprised instead if some minor characters like Ganju, Kukaku, Hanataro, or some Fracciones, will be playable as well.
I don't think that they'll add dangai Ichigo UNLESS they add dlc where they continue and finsh the rest of bleach's story, which truly saddens me because i think that Dangai Ichigos design is the best
I sincerely hope the roster is less than 30 characters; the more that comes at launch, the less love each individual's moveset will be given. Fewer characters simply allow for more complexity in their fighting styles, rather than having 50+ shallows characters all playing alike.
Theoretically anybody you fight in the main story should be playable. That said, regarding the vizards, you could easily play through the story never fighting as or against most of them. Ultimately, they're kinda useless outside of Shinji and Hachi. Ryuken and Isshin might be too similar to their sons, so I'd imagine they're either a no-go or just functionally clones with minor tweaks. I'd personally like Orihime for the complete og squad, and I'm preeetty sure her slap scales to Yhwach, but she doesn't really have an "awakening". Unless she goes in with NO powers to start, that'd be... interesting. Kon also doesn't have an awakening until TYBW.
I don't think there will be a second Gin, his base version already covers everything he has, his Arrancar Arc outfit will probably just be a skin but I do think Vizard Tosen will happen I think you're majoring undershooting the roster this is going to be a Storm/Tenkaichi level roster equal to if not bigger than where Heat the Soul left off HOW CAN YOU NOT MENTION MOMO? We got Kira and Rangiku already and Shuhei is unnecessary if Vizard Tosen isn't in
if they add dangai ichigo will he have a awakening cuz chances are mugetu will be an ulti or finisher move maybe the first without one where he just go all out at the start also where is orihime?
As.much as i would.love it that the 52 characters theory was real, its bandai, i highly doubt it. I hope im wrong. Im super grateful and excited that we are finally getting a bleach game, but it kinda sucks that they only go to the arrancar arc. Yeah its iconic. But the later forms of ichigo and the cmother characters in the lost agent arc. Ginjo at thr very least would be badass. And movie characters as dlc would be badass.
Lisa uses a cool spear, Kensei uses a knife, Mashiro throws hands, Rose has a whip, Love has a club and Hachi is a Kido expert. They all bring something unique and cool to the table so I'd love for all them to be playable. Most roster predictions I seen only include Shenji and Hyori but I hope they all get in.
I have a feeling we might get 3 aizen characters, I'm not super confident in it but it would make sense to have a SS, fake karakura and hogyoku aizen, btw everyone forgot about momo it seems😭
Pre-order BLEACH Rebirth of Souls:
PS5: geni.us/gSMVMmx
Xbox Series X: geni.us/ZPM8jU
PS4: geni.us/CvFy4
The major battle Fraccions
Hopefully it's over a 100 characters.

You forgot the inclusion of white ichigo
@@juelzbanks360 He pointed him out in the video
There’s no way they’d exclude dangai Ichigo from the base roster, especially if they include god Aizen
Bro if he’s in the game he’ll be my main
He's gonna be in for sure, can't have the final story fight without him lol
@@ShikiRyougi05fax
100%
are they including fake kt arc when they say arrancar arc?????????? cuz its kinda abrupt to end it after ichigo vs ulquiorra
Ngl i could see a Fullbringer Arc expansion but i definitely do not see them covering TYBW until a sequel comes out if the game is a success and the TYBW anime will be complete by then
Facts, tybw 100% has enough new content to justify a sequel, they could add movie content as well
That's like waiting for the Majin Buu Saga's Inclusion in the Next Game Installment which eventually did in DBZ: Budokai 2, because it was not in the previous Entry due to Time Constraints, so they Cut most of the Content to save it for the Sequel.
@joseurbina3835 ...i dont see it that way , bleach could 100000% have a 2nd game there is more then enough content
Same a dlc Expansion Arc and next sequel game it might just start at that part again! Then end at "CFYOW" the Final arc in bleach. then we can get a rebirth of soul 3 where all arcs are in the game! Redone again but much better!

@00yiggdrasill00 Thank you for the tip. I think I already noticed a few small foreshadowings such as Kyoraku zanpakuto spirit having an eye patch.
I want Orihime
I think Momo is likely now that Kira's in.
I don't see all the Vizard making it; after seeing Kira, I sort of do also imagine a few other Lieutenants but mostly those with notable roles in the phase you showed, like Momo or Nemu; even Omaeda could sneak in.
after shinji and hiyori
hachi should be the 3rd one as he defeated barragan
weird that some people forgot that he has more role to play than the other vizards
You forgot Don kanoji
The game would be too unbalanced if we added him. I'm shocked Chad is even in the game tbh.
Kon trailer when?
Most of my favorites have already been announced, like Gin, Yoruichi, Zaraki Kenpachi, and Urahara. The others I’m still waiting for are Shunsui and Yamamoto.
I'm just imagining people pairing Zaraki and Unohana just to be Iconic, and let's not forget rematches of Yhwach and Yamamoto XD! Personally can't wait!!!

@@lumina6012 If Chad has one then Gin must have one too
Ain’t no way that you choose butterfly aizen but don’t choose dangai Ichigo to be his rival, they are literally pre order early access characters, hype and rivals
My prediction is:
13 Captains
13 Vice Captains (counting Rukia as SQ 13) + 14/15 Yumichika/Ikakku
8 Vizard + Urahara/Yoruichi.
11 Espada (Nel)
Karakura Squad
Ichigo, Isshin, Chad, Uryu, Orihime, Hichigo.
55 release characters.
Hat&Clogs DLC = Ururu, Ginta, Tessai, Konpaku Rukia, Kon
Everything but the rain DLC =
Isshin Captain, Ryuken, Masaki, non captain Toshiro
Hueco Mundo DLC = Cirucci Thunderwitch, Dordoni, Tres Bestia, Loly
FKT DLC: Aizen, Butterflaizen, Resurrection/hollow Tosen, Gin Bankai, Dangai Ichigo.
Fullbring Season Pass
TYBW Season Pass 1, 2, 3
Run time of 3 years approx.
Bleach Cast is so insane.
It's not the peak goat battle shonen for no reason.
Bro we are not getting every Vice Captain, half of them don't do nothing, we getting Kira, Rangiku, Renji, Shuhei, Momo, Ikkaku and Yumichika, if we are lucky we may get Omaeda and Nemu but thats it.
When they say spring last I heard was early 2025
Im Betting CRAKK that Mayuri is gonna be in the game.He's got multiple important fights with important character like Uryu and Szalyaporo under his belt and is Kubo's Favorite character.
Hopefully theirs tybw versions for dlc cause after all the big improvements to kenpachi it would be a shame not being able to use his shikai or bankai or uraharas bankai
Senna ain't filler she's canon! 😭 Hope she's DLC
Also, no Orihime... 🥺
I hope orihime and unohana both make it in as unique healer characters
Orihime literally is in the intro
I’d like to see some of these characters get original movesets to fill in with their lack of screen time in the manga/anime (looking at some of the Vizards, Ukitake, Unohana, etc.)
If the game is said to go until the end of the Arrancar Arc, I think Dangai Ichigo is a Must Have. It would be quite strange if he end up being DLC.
My biggest Hail Mary wish for this game would be Noel and Ninny from Burn the Witch as guest characters, it would be the coolest thing ever and a great love letter to Kubo’s work
Memories of Nobody is Canon to the Manga so it’s possible Senna could be a playable character for DLC
Well, we have atleast 13 characters left until end of this year. And depends when it will release its gonna be more.
50 - 60 roster would be the sweet spot for my ideal bleach fighting game 1st installment
40 roster is ok and 35 would be the minimum for me
hope its a successful one
and have fullbring as dlc story arc
then the sequel will be the tybw arc one and hoping the shall not be name arc as a dlc
also what about burn the witch?
do you think we can get them as dlc or secret unlockable?
This game is actually the first game to cover from the beginning of Bleach all the way to the end of the Arrancar arc.

Heat the Soul 7 story takes place only during the Arrancar arc as well, the large roster is only because they copy and pasted characters from previous games.
If this game is anything like sparking zero ima be so fucking happy 😭😭 imagine flash stepping and ripping and Bankai could be so good
And if every character is good, even better!

Who are you guy's maining? I'm definitely picking Tosen and Kira

Would love to see some filler/movie/game exclusive characters in the future. Would love to see Arturo Plataedo in this game
I would love to play with zanpakutous Spirit forms.
@@gilldsouza4815I like the way you think...that's pretty genius.
i think more lieutenants and other seaters will also come :/
I think shunsuis and Mayuris game trailer will come out in accordance with the tybw cour 3 anime.
9:37 Characters could have multiple outfits so we could have Tousen, Gin or Aizen in either Arrancar Arc or Soul Society Arc clothing
Honestly, I can see reawakenings be used to add to certain characters. Someone like Tosen can have the arrancar costume as a cosmetic change and still have his resurreccion as a reawakening. Same with Gin and his bankai
dnt forget the espada aizen made hes def gunna be playable considering him n yamatos fight r important

I think it's also likely to see Nemu and Yachiru. They have been in a number of previous titles.
I think we’re gonna get about 50 characters
Imma main gidanbo 😂😂😂
35
They could use different forms as skins. Aizen butterfly could have ultimate attack kurohitsugi while TYBW Aizen would have Goryuutenmetsu
They would have the same damage or you would have to unlock a new skin through playing this specific character

Bleach Ultimate Roster (50): Ichigo, Ichigo (Bankai/Hollowfication), Ichigo (Dangai), White (Ichigo), Rukia, Orihime, Chad, Uryu, Renji, Kon, Isshin, Kisuke, Yoruichi, Ururu, Ganju, Byakuya, Kenpachi, Yachiro, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Hitsugaya, Rangiku, Hinamori, Kira, Mayuri, Soifon, Komamura, Hisagi, Shunsui, Ukitake, Unohana, Yamamoto, Shinji, Hiyori, Luppi, Nelliel, Yammy, Aaroniero, Szayelaporro, Zommari, Grimmjow, Nnoitra, Ulquiorra, Harribel, Baraggan, Starrk, Tosen, Gin, Aizen, Aizen (Hogyoko)
Roster (60): Zangetsu, Omaeda, Hanataro, Kensei, Mashiro, Rojuro, Love, Lisa, Hachigen, Ayon

Roster (110): Tensa Zangetsu, Tatsuki, Karin, Kukaku, Akon, Jirobo, Tatsufusa, Zennosuke, Menoly, Tesla
That is how much i could really stretch it without adding Fullbring or TYBW characters. Though realistically i could see them getting in after the 60 character mark. Again, this is just a thought experiment. Here's most to least likely from those arcs (and novels) imo:
Roster (120): Ginjo, Tsukishima, Riruka, Bazz-B, As Nodt, Gremmy, Bambietta, Askin, Haschwalth, Yhwach

Give me Sasakibe and ill be satisfied
I hope they put everyone in it, honestly, including movie and fillers characters. That would honestly break the gaming world.
This game is probably going to have 35 characters launch roster, I’m going to be honest I don’t see ryuken, yammy, jushiro, szayelaporro, zamari, ishin, hyori, white and preverion most likely won’t make it in.
I really hope szayelaporro makes it in, he’s kubo’s favourite espada it would be weird if they left him out.
As a fairly new member of the Bleach audience, I have to admit: "The Nintendo DS game, Dark Souls" is a string of words I never thought I would hear.
I do think Momo will be added as well.
I would say if they had a quincy section I would want the shutzstaffel and then probably the Bambis as DLC
I’m definitely getting this game
To be honest, I kinda want some of the TYBW character variant in rebirth of souls like TWBW Rukia and Ichigo as DLC.
Poor Shikai spamming Momo neglected lol. I think if Rangiku and Izuru made it in, Momo is definitely likely. Maybe Yachiru, Omaeda and Nemu might make the cut too.
Did they reveal the total number of playable characters in the game?
Anyway, that's based, over the Karakura group + Urahara & Co, the 13 captains, the most relevant lieutenants, the 8 Vizards and the 10 Espadas (+Nel) must be included. Good if there are also Isshin and Ryuken, Tessai, the Privaron, Wonderweiss, etc. I think other forms or transformations of those above up the Arrancars can be included too. I would be surprised instead if some minor characters like Ganju, Kukaku, Hanataro, or some Fracciones, will be playable as well.
Personally I am just waiting for my mains Shinji and Mayuri
I really don’t think we’re gonna get all the Visoreds. Shinji is a definite, but the rest are less likely. Possibly Hiyori
I would quite like to see chojiro. We know he was quite powerful, but we never see it. I would like to see how it's interpreted.
I don't think that they'll add dangai Ichigo UNLESS they add dlc where they continue and finsh the rest of bleach's story, which truly saddens me because i think that Dangai Ichigos design is the best
I sincerely hope the roster is less than 30 characters; the more that comes at launch, the less love each individual's moveset will be given. Fewer characters simply allow for more complexity in their fighting styles, rather than having 50+ shallows characters all playing alike.
I want them to have the TYBW or CFYOW Arc
Theoretically anybody you fight in the main story should be playable. That said, regarding the vizards, you could easily play through the story never fighting as or against most of them. Ultimately, they're kinda useless outside of Shinji and Hachi. Ryuken and Isshin might be too similar to their sons, so I'd imagine they're either a no-go or just functionally clones with minor tweaks.
I'd personally like Orihime for the complete og squad, and I'm preeetty sure her slap scales to Yhwach, but she doesn't really have an "awakening". Unless she goes in with NO powers to start, that'd be... interesting. Kon also doesn't have an awakening until TYBW.
I wonder if the fullbring arc will be dlc or they'll just release another game covering full bring and tybw
I don't think there will be a second Gin, his base version already covers everything he has, his Arrancar Arc outfit will probably just be a skin but I do think Vizard Tosen will happen
I think you're majoring undershooting the roster this is going to be a Storm/Tenkaichi level roster equal to if not bigger than where Heat the Soul left off
HOW CAN YOU NOT MENTION MOMO? We got Kira and Rangiku already and Shuhei is unnecessary if Vizard Tosen isn't in
gin already has move he used on aizen showcased in trailerhe wont get a severe form tozen tho maybe
thinking uryus dad will be in game is wildin n utaktake is a hard maybe but possible unlike unohonha
When is the release? This the first anime I ever watched
Pesche and Dondochakka trailer when? 😅
1:56 Is it an Arena fighter or 3D Fighter?
Good roster but no Hinamori, she almost mainstay in bleach fighting game not to mention she quite popular in japanese
You forgot about Wii Bleach Shattered Fate Imran
if they add dangai ichigo
will he have a awakening cuz chances are mugetu will be an ulti or finisher move
maybe the first without one where he just go all out at the start
also where is orihime?
As.much as i would.love it that the 52 characters theory was real, its bandai, i highly doubt it. I hope im wrong. Im super grateful and excited that we are finally getting a bleach game, but it kinda sucks that they only go to the arrancar arc. Yeah its iconic. But the later forms of ichigo and the cmother characters in the lost agent arc. Ginjo at thr very least would be badass. And movie characters as dlc would be badass.
I hope they bring fullbringer and quincys
Hope Sasakibe will include
Orihime is confirmed?
What about Orihime?!
Heat the Soul games I actually liked her combat :D
Orihime has not been confirmed playable, actually
Be real with me, yall. Is koga making it?
As long as i get to play as kon don kanoji and zenosuke kurumadani idc 🗣️🗣️🙏🙏
Pls give us starrk Harribel and Grimmjow, so many good characters I kinda want kensei as well
I want King Quincy unlock Yhwach in The last arc TYBW dlc
I hype for Shinji Shikai
I hope we see white tensa zangetsu
Aizen is gonna be DLC 100%
What about Orihime ??
Don't forget yhwach dood
I need Kokto playable 😂
Kinda wish senna would be playable. Very unlikely
A jidanbo fight would be OD
Rip momo
Am i the only one whose super hyped about the visored? especially lisa and shinji❤
Lisa uses a cool spear, Kensei uses a knife, Mashiro throws hands, Rose has a whip, Love has a club and Hachi is a Kido expert. They all bring something unique and cool to the table so I'd love for all them to be playable. Most roster predictions I seen only include Shenji and Hyori but I hope they all get in.
How about Hinamori
I want Yhwach
Orihime?
Give me mushiru and I'm happy
This game looks terrible tbh. If I can't get my Sun Sun for $60 it ain't worth it
I have a feeling we might get 3 aizen characters, I'm not super confident in it but it would make sense to have a SS, fake karakura and hogyoku aizen, btw everyone forgot about momo it seems😭
yeah i also hope for 3 aizens if we gonna have 3 ichigos .
Since Assansin‘s creed shadows is delayed. I’m gonna need something else to kill time.
