The new Japanese cultural apparel brand ODDGOOD has revealed a new collection inspired by Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War, and fans of the current anime adaptation of Tite Kubo’s beloved manga series won’t want to miss out on these stunning pieces. Those attending Anime Expo 2026 will be able to see the pieces for themselves, and not all items have been revealed just yet, so fans will want to keep an eye out for more in the coming days. Bleach: Thousand Year Blood War is set to return with new episodes on July 25, 2026, so hype is at an all-time high, and these pieces will likely fly off the shelf once they become available.
Written and illustrated by Tite Kubo, the Bleach manga series debuted in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2001 and ran until 2016. As of 2022, it had sold a stunning 130 million copies, making it one of the best-selling manga series in history and putting it on par with other heavy hitters like JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, Attack on Titan, and Kingdom. While Kubo’s magnum opus concluded a decade ago, recent reports indicate that the Bleach manga could be making a comeback in 2026, with a brand-new arc, titled the Hell Arc, potentially headed to Shonen Jump to commemorate the series’ 25th anniversary.

New Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Apparel Revealed Ahead of Anime Adaptation’s Fourth and Final Season
The new Japanese apparel brand ODDGOOD, spearheaded by CyberAgent, Inc., has revealed a new collection inspired by Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War, with five characters featuring in the initial lineup: Ichigo Kurosaki, Rukia Kuchiki, Shunsui Kyoraku, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, and Kon. The collection of T-shirts and caps will continue to grow, however, as ODDGOOD has revealed that daily reveals will appear on its Twitter page in the days leading up to Anime Expo 2026. Additionally, those purchasing shirts at the event will snag their new piece in an exclusive book-style box. The complete lineup and release dates will be announced at a later date, and these Bleach goods will likely be available to purchase online internationally at some point in the near future.
Bleach is continuing to see a major resurgence in the years following the release of Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Season 1 in 2022. Three cours have aired so far, with the fourth and final batch of episodes scheduled to begin airing on July 25. Fans have been enjoying the show, which has faithfully adapted the final story arc from Kubo’s legendary manga series. The first three episodes of the new season have been screened in US theaters ahead of its premiere, with the final screenings slated to take place today, June 29.
This isn’t the only recent apparel release for the series. In early June, the popular Japanese apparel brand Uniqlo announced a collaboration with manga publisher Shueisha, with major Weekly Shonen Jump series like Bleach, YuYu Hakusho, Hunter x Hunter, Jujutsu Kaisen, Naruto, One Piece, and Sakamoto Days appearing on a wide selection of T-shirts. This is in honor of the publisher’s 100th anniversary, and all shirts are slated to go on sale in early August. While the shirts will be made available in Japan first, international fans will likely be able to snag them shortly after, as this has been the case with the previous anime and manga-centric releases.
