[@Inuyasha2018]

@@egg2468 no it goes only to aizens defeat

[@RivelioMugen]

Fun fact: The Arrancar numbered on the hundreds, like Gantenbainne, are really former Espada that were "demoted" in favor of the main 10 Espada, but the three-digit number is more a mark of shame for having lost their usefulness for Aizen and less an indication of their actual power level compared to the Espada. Hence why part of the main cast still struggled a bit against them

[@Egyxos48]

Hey, I see you here after releasing Ichigo, I can see where you take your sources from, big fan of yours. Just one question, would you consider making Yhwach?

[@pepeelghetto1231]

This.

[@Raiden-TR]

True bleach fan 💯

[@SliferStreaming]

In the novels its effectively stated that their number as a privaron is 100 lower than what it was as an espada, lol. The dude ichigo fought, dordonii, was 103, so he had nel's spot either before or after she got knocked out, and then halibel took his spot

[@RivelioMugen]

Naturally, they're weaker than Aizen's artificially evolved Espada, just like Nell _used_ to be 3rd in her time but isn't comparable to Harribel's current 3. But the three digits are still a sign of demotion rather than a strict indication of their actual power, as stated by Tousen himself in chapter 250 of the manga instead of the novels ("A three-digit number is a sign of demotion. It denotes Espada who have been stripped of their rank). Which makes sense, as otherwise Ichigo wouldn't have needed to go up to at least Bankai to defeat Dordonni (#103) if he were weaker than Harribel (#3) by an actual full hundred digits worth of power.

[@srowwww9780]

The way you predicted the roster is actually clever but i think you should've had in mind the major fights in each arc. If you could make a list of the mandatory fights to tell the story, i think you would've have a better roster prediction. I feel like this prediction is a bit flawed since you don't really have much knowledge on bleach and thats completely fine. Still a nice watch. I will leave my thoughts : -If you have Yoruichi playable you need to have Soi fon. Yoruichi first major fight was vs Soi fon and during the arrancar arc Soi fon has one of the major fights. Soi fon is 100% confirmed when she also has a completely diff fighting style than any other character besides Yoruichi. But i understand ur point since the green spot also made sense -Kira or even Shuhei is above Yumichika, i feel like they have more important fights that connect well with other characters. Oh and also, they have more interesting zanpakuto's that could make a more unique character than Yumichika. For some reason i think that if they make Yumichika playable at the base roster, Ganju needs to be there as well. -You did Szayelaporro dirty. He for sure should've been higher for how much you can milk his fights to extend the story. You can have 3diff story fights vs him (vs Uryu, vs Renji, vs Mayuri). He atleast should've taken Ukitake spot, ukitake doesn't have a really important fight comparing with the other spots

[@Raiden-TR]

Exactly

[@SliferStreaming]

Ukitake fights starrk as a team with shunsui, that's basically his only fight ever currently besides the 5 second fight with metastacia, lol.

[@srowwww9780]

[@shikitohno1756]

@@srowwww9780 Also I say Shunsui is like... Not even a question for being a given character. He's been one of the bigger captains story wise for a while and has a fun shikai to play with if it's only going to go up to the arrancar arc. Plus he was involved in one of the most memorable curb stomps in early bleach. Him wanting to throw Kira under the bus was weird too since Kira's one of the most significant lieutenants in the manga.

Yeah, Globku should really apologize for that mistake.

[@iisanulquiorrahara8]

My stance is bare minimum 30+, maybe 40+. Solely on the fact that Shattered Blade had 32 back on the Wii and mostly just covered the Seireitei arc with teases to the Espada arc with Ulquiorra and Grimmjow there.

[@Snzn_7]

I am wondering how they will do the story mode some justice though. Since that will require the game to still have a ton non playable enemy characters. And since they will end up making models and movesets for those anyway. Those might end up being DLC characters since they will need just a little effort to them fully playable

@@Xeno_Solarus not all characters are "playable" in an arena fighter bruh,. Especially "if it has like an expansive story mode". "Most Arena fighters", have the basic "assist only characters", story mode only characters, some arena fighters have mob characters you can beat up in story mode etc. For Bleach, do you expect "all hollows" to be actually Playable??. And since it is "covering a big span of the story". They will probably only "choose a limited amount to be playable" so Definitely there will be "characters that will only appear in "cuts scenes and story mode". Heck even basic "fighting game has non playable characters especially if it is a franchise that has a lot of characters that they can't add all in one game. Like the Granblue Fantasy Versus, where we have big popular characters that "are not playable", but are fightable enemy in storymode. In Hinokami Chronicles, a lot of the Demons you fight in story mode "ARE NOT PLAYABLE". Like you do expect Ichigo's classmates to be playable??? Like Keigo, Arisawa, and Mizuiro???. The school gangsters?? Like the "trailer" showed Gran Fisher, like all of us expect that thing ain't gonna be playable. I'll return the question to you , "my guy wtf are talking about".

Instead of Ayon being playable, I think having the Tres Bestias be playable as one character is more of a chance of happening. Their play style and combos could be similar to how pain summons his other 5 selves to assist him in a fight like in the Storm games. Also, Ayon could then be their transformation if they were to have one. I do think that Appaci would be the main one of the Tres Bestias. I could also see a move or something similar to a Cero being charged up with then all 3 of them firing it towards your opponent.

Can't wait to see how Tamsoft will integrate the transformations and certain abilities in the gameplay (theycan take ideas from Dark Souls, Blade Battlers and Heat The Soul to implement on Rebirth os Souls). But of course, there will be business (controversial) decisions such as Nel, Matsumoto, and/or Haliibel as DLC characters because of course there is going to be DLC and there are perfect candidates (I also think in Hisagi, Kira, and/or Luppi as DLC too), hell I even think that Ulquiorra and Gin could be a bonus DLC (same situation as Illumi and Neferpitou in HxH Nen Impact in which both are really popular characters and perfect for a DLC). I think that Wonderwice, Dordoni, Rose, Kensei, and/or Cirrucci could be part of the base roster. Vizards will be Hirako and Hiyori. I only see Ukitake, Nanao, Yachiru, and/or Unohana appearing in the story mode but not playable until a sequel. I can see pre-orders of "skins" such as Dark Rukia and "Hell Movie or Old Man Zangetsu coat/attire/Frankenstein for Ichigo too. P.S.: I would love to see Gintoki from Gintama as a DLC character due to the funny chemistry between him and Ichigo in a lot of marketing campaigns/commercials/promotions.

Confirmed characters: - Ichigo - Uryu - Rukia Semi-Confirmed: - Byakuya - Renji - Yoruichi Most likely in the game: - Chad - Urahara - Aizen (main antagonist of the given arcs) - Gin (present as antagonist through the given arcs) - Hitsugaya (present supporting character through the given arcs/very handy kit for such game) - Ikkaku (present through the given arcs/handy kit for such game/Ichigo‘s first true fight) - Kenpachi (through the given arcs/Ichigo‘s opponent in the soul society arc) - Mayuri (Uryu‘s opponent in the soul society arc) - All Espadas (being major opponents of the Arrancar Saga) - Kyoraku (opponent of Chad/fights an Espada) - Soi Feng (opponent of Yoruichi/fights an Espada) - Shinji (major supporting char/rep of Vizards) -> making a roster of 27 chars Possibly added: - Tosen & Sajin (if their fight in the soul society against Kenpachi is included) - Shuhei (fights Tosen) - the former Espada that fight Ichigo, Uryu and Chad - Orihime (not really a fighter tho) - Luppi - Kensei (fights Ichigo first during his training) - White Ichigo - Ichigo variant: Vasto Lord - Yummichika - Rangiku -> making a roster of 40 Somewhat possible: - Charlotte - Yamamoto - Unohana - Ryuken - Isshin - Chojiro - the other vizards

A roster that big would be some crazy tournaments besides sparking zero

[@ruikirisame1744]

i really hope that they tie the transformations or powerups to a catch up mechanics. not just because it would make the party arena game too swingly but because doing that takes the wins out of your sails. at least it did for me when i played naruto ultimate ninja 5

[@tnuhenaj3752]

Oh and unohana is playable in the 3rd phantom. It’s a fire emblem style game. There are characters in like shattered blade and 3rd phantom that aren’t in other games. Mainly game exclusive characters so they wouldn’t get in. Although some of them are designed by kubo.

[@K.Maroon]

So...35 character roster confirmed?)

[@michaeldavisarnold5589]

We need the TYBW and the Full bringer arc. Not just the beginning

[@alberttus2328]

In assuming the various ichigos we get: 1) Substitute Shinigami Ichigo: We know that's where the game starts. We've seen Grand Fischer so I think it'd be pretty ballsy (and lazy) for them to just throw full Shikai Ichigo in a story battle against him. (though the only Uryu we've seen thus far is the reigai glove one so...) 2) Soul Society Ichigo: Your average Ichigo as been seen in every trailer. 3) Arrancar Arc Ichigo: An Ichigo that probably either starts already in Bankai and moves through his hollow forms (I assume this will be the case) OR starts in Shikai and more easily goes through his Hollow forms (ala, doesn't have White take over him). His 'arrancar/full hollow' form will probably be his end state. *wishful thinking variants* 4) Dangai Ichigo: Moving from his final bankai to Final Getsuga Ichigo via his transformations. I would almost think this to be a story exclusive character but who knows. *related others* 5) White: It would be nice to see white have a transition similar to Soul Society Ichigo going from shikai -> bankai; however I think it'd also be cool to have him to bankai -> arrancar/full hollow as he did during Ichigo's final getsuga training. 6) Zangetsu: Ichigo does fight Zangetsu several times throughout the series so it would not surprise me to see him in the roster. I would love for them to go bold and do Old Man Zangetsu as Shikai -> Young Zangetsu as Bankai, potentially even further via fusing with White. Who knows though. They're being awfully cagey with what they're showing in their videos which speaks as either disastrously bad/lazy or a bleach game filled with goodies, easter eggs, and respectful nods to the source material they dont want yet to spoil.

[@xBigSmokey__]

If the game is very story based I think it’s required for all Espada, all vizards, all captains and all the main story KT characters should be playable no matter what. It is a next gen game and will not struggle with a big roster.

[@xBigSmokey__]

Oh zangetsu and white I forgot about

[@monokomomo4977]

thats the thing people are making rosters based on opinions but they forget alot of characters are important story wise like nearly all the vizards and espadas, the captains are a must have due to the fake arc, the only ones that shouldn't be in the game is joke characters and tybw due to them not buying the license for it

[@TheItalianPlaystationdude]

I have a feeling the roster might be huge. Not sparking zero huge, but more like 80-90 characters plus dlc. And I say that because, this is the first bleach game we have gotten in years that covers most of the story from the beginning. Combine that with the fact people have been asking for a new bleach game for sooooo long, they could be going all out with this. And this game doesn't look low budget at all. Which makes me think this game could be a lot bigger than we think.

[@blazertaze2648]

The way no one mentioned Omaeda. Crazy bro. Soi Fon's lieutenant. Bro fought Barrigan, so I think he at least deserves a mention.

[@jammyrolly]

I feel like we're gonna be pleasantly surprised with this roster, main cast, captains, notable vice captains, surely all the espada, notable anime fight arrancars, vaizard. Then as exceptions you may get movie characters/Bounto. This is same company thats gave us like 30 characters before dlc Tekken 8 and giving us 160+ character/variations with DBSZ

[@MonomaForAll]

So I personally think that this game will be the Bleach equivalent of DB Xenoverse in terms of roster size (no custom character or anything even though that would be cool). Like this is going to be the definitive modern Bleach fighting game just based on how it looks and how polished it seems. They really seem to be going all out with the animations and effects to make it flashy. Looks far better than the BNHA and KNY arena fighters. I also think if the game only covers up to Dangi Ichigo vs Aizen that it will guaranteed have TYBW DLC on top of the already large roster. If that's the case I also think there's a good chance of CFYOW DLC of Hisagi and Hikone but that's more copium. Really enjoyed this vid, would be interested to see another based on possible DLC characters like I'm speculating since hype DLC characters basically print more money for big fighting games.

[@sanetay]

This made me realize that this game really doesn't need a huge roaster to get all the essential characters tbh, anywhere between 30-40 characters seems like itd be satisfying

[@conic2721]

I think Hisagi is gonna make it at least as a DLC. He's the main character of the most important novel and has an interesting moveset.

[@Snzn_7]

This is my big issue is that a fighting game will have a limited playable characters so what happens to the Canon story fights that that involves charcters that are not part of the roster?? Are they gonna completely skip those fights?? or are they gonna end up as just cutscene fights? Like how will the story mode end up??

[@DanielGonzalez-es3rg]

If they decide to do a big enough roster to have multiple ichigos then I believe those versions of ichigo if they're only doing from the start of the series to the end of the arancar arc it would be: maybe human ichigo, his first shinigami form, first shikai, first bankai ichigo with the partial mask as either a separate awakening/ultimate that you could switch out, full mask ichigo, maybe hollowfied ichigo as a separate version, most definitely vasto lord, and finally dangai ichigo with mugetsu as an ult cuz I don't believe it would make sense for mugetsu to be its own form over dangai

[@nikjovan4816]

Have fighting games done full on expansion packs with a dozen characters? Because they might just make a full on TYBW expansion pack. The TYBW anime will probably end in 2025 and I doubt they would have a second game that covers the TYBW ready before that happens. But there are just too many new characters in TYBW so a 2nd game would be required. Or maybe a huge expansion that will basically be a game upgrade.

[@Sir_Slimbread]

I'm on team 2nd Game. Fullbring and TWBW might not seem like enough content to justify a completely different game, but if they also potentially include Movie Content, the Hell Arc One Shot(hopefully by time we get a 2nd Game the Hell Arc will actually be something that's ongoing), and potentially Burn the Witch Characters(they could probably be DLC for either game tbh).

[@nikjovan4816]

@@Sir_Slimbread I agree. There is just so much material left for a 2nd game. And Bleach will probably adapt the novels, maybe a movie and Kubo might even continue the manga with the Hell arc after the anime is over. So Bleach will definitely have content coming out post 2025 so a 2nd game will still be wanted.

I think every major combat for Ichigo and his crew from each respective arc will be represented. Now, some enemies may be exclusively bosses, such as Grand Fischer for the Soul Society Arc. This means Every major fight Ichigo, Chad, Uryu, Rukia, and Renji has will be playable. Everything else is up in the air. That said, characters who aid them, such as Nellielle with Ichigo, have a high likelihood of appearing, as well as characters with ties to major villains or fan favorite characters, such as the number 3 espada and whoever she fought in fake Karikura Town (I think Hitsugaya and some other people, it's been a while and I didn't particularly care that much about her), and Shuhei with Tosen. Outside of that, I'd say is all really unlikely. But getting to play as Isshin would be insanely awesome. I wanna play as him and 1-shot grand fisher's arrancar form

I feel like some characters would work better as "Support characters" or an equivalent... Characters like Kon, Yachiru and Ururu... If the game has a support system anyway... Edit: If we imagine some characters working as a multiple in one, like Pesche and dondochakka, I feel like the tres bestias can be one (with Ayon as their ultimate); same for Stark and Lilynette. Maybe Yachiru can become part of Kenpachi's moveset?

Yeah, I finally found a comment speaking about him, he has a lot more screentime than some of the other characters but wasn't even considered an option, also the only lieutenant from the soul society Arc who wasn't there

[@tnuhenaj3752]

Soul resurreccion is an outlier because its gameplay genre generally leads to way less characters. Almost every other game has more than it. For fighting games you’d expect much more since they’re easier to make more characters for. The other games that had small casts was because it was the beginning of series and there weren’t that many characters. Heat the soul 7 is another outlier. Like the storm series the roster got bigger across the games. If you look at heat the soul 1 it legit has like 6 playable characters. Just the human gang. This as the first of a new series most likely won’t have that many characters. Even if there are characters who are only transformations like hollow mask ichigo if they give them a different moveset they should still be counted since that will take development time away from other characters. Heat the soul 7 has more like 83 characters since the transformations are basically separate characters with their own moveset.

[@adam-dn3hi]

globku you completly forgot that ichigo does not have shikai for the entire first arc of bleach which means there are 4 forms of ichigo that we know about that will appear in this game base sword ichigo shikai ichigo bankai ichigo mask ichigo

[@Snzn_7]

Its proabaly more like 1.Base Ichigo (though this Ichigo might just end up being Story exclusive, and a tutorial mode character, Since he lacks transformation gimmicks so if they are limiting playable charcters, they don't need to Fully Build this Ichigo to be played on multiplayer) 2. Shikai Ichigo that can transform to bankai (If A 2nd transformation is possible then he can go Bankai Hollow mask) 3.Bankai Ichigo that can Hollow Mask then second transformation to Vasto Lorde Ichigo 4. Dangai Ichigo with Final Getsuga Tenshou Ultimate.

I do agree with most of your roster takes minus two Ukitake and cutting Mashiro; our captain friend how often does he fight in the story? Not enough to be in the game by that stand point, and he might be somewhat "popular" but not as much as some other characters; next if they include multiple Visors they will have all of them - not leaving out one at random. There also might be multiple Aizens btw. but since there is the 3 "forms" maybe """full power""" Aizen from that time, will be his finisher or final form idk But yeah again, hope the game will be fire - nice video m8!

Genuinely surprised the game is covering this much of the story pretty much everything but the filler arcs and the TYBW. This gives opportunity for their to be an extremely large roster. But I would also guess that they wont release every character that they could, like all the minor arrancar and ex espada that could easily have fleshed out mechanics and unique movesets with. Kinda why I do not mind jumping on Bleach Brave Souls every now and again, there are so many different characters to play and the higher rated ones have pretty cool and unique visuals with their attacks (for a mobile game anyway). I ain't getting my hopes up for this one, but I also dont mind if it ain't that great, I have always just wanted a Ultimate Ninja Storm styled Bleach game and finally we getting it boys.
