The release date and time for Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War’s English dub have finally been confirmed along with the main cast.
It’s remarkable that after only four episodes, we are already running out of superlatives to describe the Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War anime.
The series is currently scoring an outstanding 9.08/10 on MyAnimeList, making it the third highest-rated show of all time behind Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood and Kaguya-sama: Love is War.
Whilst Bleach fans around the world are delighted at the quality of TYBW, there will be a significant portion of the community who are waiting patiently for the English dub to premiere.
The good news is that the release date and time for Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War English dub has just been confirmed in the United States alongside the main voice cast.
