A second collection of BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War merchandise created in collaboration with Japanese traditional crafts has been officially announced, with sales launching on 5 August 2026 at Kyoto IP Bookstore and participating retailers.
About BLEACH
BLEACH is a sword-action manga by Tite Kubo, serialised in Weekly Shonen Jump, with a cumulative series print run exceeding 130 million copies worldwide. The story follows Ichigo Kurosaki, an ordinary teenager who gains the powers of a Soul Reaper and becomes embroiled in the upheaval of the Soul Society. The anime adaptation ran from October 2004 to March 2012 and spawned four theatrical films. The revamped final arc, BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War, began airing in October 2022, and its concluding cour — BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Conflict – — kicked off on 25 July.
Collection Highlights
Ukiyo-e Woodblock Print — “BLEACH 浮世絵版画 千年血戦篇訣別譚”
The centrepiece of the collection is a ukiyo-e-style fine-art print depicting the climactic battle between Ichigo Kurosaki and his friend-turned-rival Uryu Ishida from the Ketsujōtan arc. The composition draws inspiration from Tsukioka Yoshitoshi‘s celebrated work “Yoshitsune-ki Gojō-bashi no Zu.” Vivid colours and expressive character details are reproduced via high-definition Giclée printing on handmade washi paper sourced from the Iwano Heizaburo and Yamaguchi paper mills in the Echizen region, making it suitable for long-term preservation. The frame is constructed from resin, aluminium, and acrylic.

Edo Kiriko Old-Fashioned Glass
Crafted by skilled artisans in the Edo Kiriko cut-glass tradition, each old-fashioned glass features coloured glass chosen to evoke a specific character, adorned with the intricate geometric cuts synonymous with Edo Kiriko. Each character’s Zanpakutō (soul-cutting sword) is further rendered on the glass via sandblasting, merging the world of BLEACH with centuries-old craft.

- Limited to: 20 pieces per character
Wakasa-nuri Lacquer Chopsticks (若狭塗箸)

Each pair is finished in the colour of the respective captain’s haori lining and features the squad’s flower motif carved into the lacquer. They come presented in a dedicated paulownia wood box illustrated with the captain’s artwork.
- Price: ¥5,500 (tax included) per pair
