How To Watch Bleach In Order With Movies

Okay, so you wanna dive into Bleach. Awesome choice! But then you remember... there are movies. And suddenly, your simple anime watch plan turns into a quest worthy of a Soul Reaper.

Fear not! We're here to make sense of it all. Let's get you watching Bleach (and its movies!) in an order that won't make your head explode.

The Bleach Basic Training Arc: TV Series First!

First things first: watch the main series. This is anime bootcamp. You need to understand the Soul Society, Ichigo's powers, and why everyone's hair is so spiky.

Start from episode 1. Continue through episode 63. Then watch the first movie, Bleach: Memories of Nobody. Yes, jump right into it!

Carry on with episodes 64 through 109. Then get ready for movie number two, Bleach: The DiamondDust Rebellion. A mouthful, I know.

Afterward, watch episodes 110 through 167. Prepare for the third movie, Bleach: Fade to Black. Things are getting serious now.

Then move on to episodes 168 through 203. This is followed by the fourth movie, Bleach: Hell Verse. It’s like a theme park ride through the underworld!

Finally, watch episodes 204 through 366. You’ve officially survived the original Bleach anime!

The Unpopular Opinion Arc: Movie Placement is Key

Now, here's where things get spicy. Many will tell you movie placement doesn’t matter. They'll say watch them whenever!

But I'm here to tell you that’s madness! Watching them interspersed with the main arc keeps it fresh. This is my unpopular opinion, and I'm sticking to it!

The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc: A New Era

Ready for the final arc? The Thousand-Year Blood War is intense. This one is only the TV series.

No movies here, folks. Just pure, unadulterated Bleach goodness. Prepare yourself for some epic battles!

The "But Why?" Interlude

Some might ask, "Why this order? Why not just watch all the episodes then all the movies?". Because where is the fun in that!?

Plus, each movie has nods to what's happening in the show at the time of its release. This placement enhances the experience, trust me.

The "This is Just, Like, My Opinion, Man" Disclaimer

Look, this is just a suggestion. An opinion! Anime watching is a personal journey. Feel free to deviate.

But if you're looking for a fun, slightly chaotic, and surprisingly engaging way to watch Bleach with its movies, give this a try.

The Final Getsuga Tensho: Enjoy!

So there you have it! A hopefully not-too-confusing guide to watching Bleach with the movies. Now go forth and enjoy the Soul Society!

Just remember, stay hydrated, take breaks, and prepare for the feels. You're in for a wild ride!
