This week, a new trailer for Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War , showing what we can expect in part two of the anime. Spoiler alert : In addition, the trailer also indicates that Shinji Hirako will reveal his Bankai , which has never been used in the anime or manga.
Bleach – Anime trailer hints at a new Bankai
Check it out:
Shinji Hirako is the captain of the 5th division of the Gotei 13 in the Soul Society , and he also possesses a Bankai, just like the other captains. However, Shinji never revealed it in previous Bleach arcs or in the original manga story. Although never mentioned in the main series, Shinji's Bankai is canonical as it appears in the light novel Bleach: Can't Fear Your Own World .
This Bankai is called Sakasama Yokoshima Happō Fusagar and has the power to disorient opponents, making them fight each other. However, Shinji was forbidden from using his Bankai, since it could affect his allies as well. So this will be the first time he reveals his power in the anime outside of the light novel.
Synopsis:
Shortly after a series of Hollow murders and several disappearances in the Rukongai district, Ichigo and his friends discover that the Quincies were actually alive. The Quincies, to jog their memory, are a kind of supernatural human who can manipulate reishi and kill Hollows instead of purifying them like the Soul Society. Everyone believed that the Gotei 13 exterminated these enemies 1000 years ago, but the Quincies remained hidden, waiting for the return of their king, Yhwach.
Finally, Tomohisa Taguchi (Twin Star Exorcists, Kino's Journey – The Beautiful World, Akudama Drive) is replacing Noriyuki Abe to direct the anime at Studio Pierrot. Masashi Kudo is returning as character designer, while Shiro Sagisu is returning to compose the music.
