Bleach: The Thousand Year Blood War Arc is Bringing Back Johnny Yong Bosch

By Evan Valentine

Throughout Bleach's history, Ichigo has been brought to life by voice actor Johnny Yong Bosch in the West, with many Shonen fans wondering if the man who brought Vash the Stampede from Trigun and Sabo from One Piece to life would be making a comeback. Well, it has now been confirmed that the man behind Ichigo's English voice will be returning for the Thousand Year Blood War Arc and he won't be the only original voice actor that will be making a comeback.         

Alongside Bosch who will be returning to the protagonist role this time around, several other classic Bleach actors will be returning to the English Dub to reprise their roles. These roles include Michelle Ruff as Rukia Kuchiki, Derek Stephen Prince as Uryu Ishida, Stephanie Sheh as Orihime Inoue, Wally Wingert as Renji Abarai, and Doug Erholtz as Kisuke Urahara. While there are still plenty of other members of the Soul Society that have yet to be announced when it comes to their English voice actors, there will also be plenty of new characters that will need voices as the Soul Society tangles with a rogue faction of the Quincy family.

Viz Media shared the major news regarding Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Arc, with this revelation sure to turn a few anime fans' heads while also reuniting the English voice cast years following the original conclusion of the anime adaptation that had over three hundred and fifty episodes to its name:

One big mystery remains for Bleach: The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc and that is in regards to where fans will be able to stream it once it premieres next month. While rumors have been all over the place when it comes to where Ichigo and his friends within the Soul Society might land, Viz has confirmed in recent days that the announcement is right around the corner for where fans in North America will be able to watch the long-awaited anime return.
