Where to Watch Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Episode 19
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Episode 19 is titled "The White Haze," and you can currently find it streaming (along with the rest of the previous episodes) exclusively on Hulu in the United States with the simulcast in English and Latin American Spanish, and on Star+ and Disney+ with English, Latin American Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, and Italian subtitles. They tease the episode as such, "A fearless Rukia swings her Sodenoshirayuki in battle as she takes on Äs Nödt." But as fans can already see, the Soul Reapers are winning fights of their own.
This might not end up being for the best, however, as Uryu Ishida has discovered that Yhwach is hiding a secret that could end up spelling doom for everyone else. It's been revealed that each of the fallen Quincies has their power absorbed into Yhwach's body when they die, and it's their purpose to serve as Yhwach plans for something greater than the control of Soul Society. It's just a matter of seeing what this grand plan could really be.
