Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 4: The 2026 “Secret Ending,” The New Scenes, and The Release Date Truth

The Verdict

Stop searching for “Part 4 Episode 1.” It isn’t there.

Instead, circle July 2026 on your calendar. The anime is taking its time for a reason. They aren’t just animating the ending; they are rewriting history to give Ichigo the goodbye he deserved 10 years ago. The wait is painful, but for a “fixed” ending, it is absolutely worth it.
