The official X account for the Anime Expo convention dropped exciting news for Bleach fans: there will be a Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3 panel at the 2024 event. What’s even more thrilling is that fans will get a “sneak peek of Part 3” during the panel, offering the first glimpse of the series since its trailer premiered at Jump Festa ’24.
This announcement also revealed that several voice actors from the series will grace the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3 panel, including Derek Stephen Prince, Robbie Daymond, and Xander Mobus. These talented actors lend their voices to Uryu Ishida, Jugram Hsachwalth, and Bazz-B, respectively, all of whom seem to play significant roles in the upcoming part. Additionally, the trio is set to revisit the first two parts of the series, adding to the excitement.
Bleach Fans, Rejoice as Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 Sneak Peek Confirmed for Anime Expo 2024
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3 is part of the larger TYBW anime series, serving as a sequel to the original 2004 anime adaptation. The original anime was based on Tite Kubo’s acclaimed Bleach manga, which ran in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump from August 2001 until its conclusion in August 2016.
Fans are eagerly anticipating this news, especially since it comes directly from the official Anime Expo X/Twitter account. Given the credibility of the source, fans can expect the promised sneak peek to be delivered as advertised, barring any unforeseen circumstances from animation studio Pierrot or Anime Expo themselves.

It’s highly unlikely that any last-minute changes will occur, considering that the third part of the series has been in production for nearly a year. In fact, it’s probable that the sneak peek is already prepared or in its final stages of production ahead of its release. This sneak peek, scheduled for Anime Expo 2024 in early July, is also expected to reveal the third part’s release date, if it hasn’t been revealed by then.
In addition to the Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War part 3 sneak peek, the Anime Expo X/Twitter account also teased “major announcements around Bleach.” While this could hint at other news related to the franchise beyond the anime adaptation, details about these announcements are currently unavailable, leaving fans eagerly awaiting further information.
