Bleach: Brave Souls to mark end of year with special livestream and appearance of anime VAs

• As it comes to the end of the year, Bleach: Brave Souls is set to celebrate in style
• Anime VAs will make an appearance on a special livestream to mark the occasion
• There'll also be a raffle, with top prizes including major in-game rewards

It's been a big year for Bleach - the airing of the Thousand Year Blood War arc on Japanese television (and subsequently worldwide) seems to have boosted this shonen back into the headlines. And to celebrate, a special livestream event for Bleach: Brave Souls is scheduled to mark the end of the year.

Bleach: Brave Souls Year End Bankai Live 2024 will see top voice actors from the series making a special appearance: Masakazu Morita (Ichigo Kurosaki), Ryotaro Okiayu (Byakuya Kuchiki), Noriaki Sugiyama (Uryu Ishida) and Hiroki Yasumoto (Yasutora Sado/Chad).

The livestream isn't just an opportunity for popular names from the airing series to appear either. The Brave Souls Raffle 2024 will also be revealed, with a first prize of 3000 Spirit Orbs, while there'll also be a gameplay corner, info on New Year's Summons and a whole lot more!

It seems as if, after years where it sort of coasted under the radar, Bleach: Brave Souls is constantly back in my inbox with a new milestone or event. No doubt this is fuelled by the Thousand Year Blood War arc, which marked Tite Kubo's return to the series after a years-long absence, and its impact on boosting the franchise's popularity since it first finished publication.

But it's not just a livestream either! If you haven't already checked out the Christmas-themed outfits on offer, you can also check out the Gift Campaign running until December 17th.  And be sure to keep your eye out for the Anime Broadcast Celebration Special: The Santa Society Crown Summons: Ordinary, starting December 19th, with Liltotto and Gremmy featured as the new five-star characters.

And if you're going to be hopping into Bleach: Brave Souls for the first time, or coming back after a long absence, don't go in unprepared. Check out our Bleach: Brave Souls tier list to make sure you're clued into who's hot and who's trash!
