How To Watch Bleach In Order - Filler List

Bleach was one of the shonen big three along with Naruto and One Piece. When Bleach was released in 2004, it quickly became a favorite anime amongst fans. Bleach(anime) was cut short and completed back in 2012 and while the manga on which the show is based has kept going, it looked unlikely that the anime would ever catch up. Despite the show’s waning popularity, it still has its highlights and makes for a riveting watch today.

This changed in 2020 when Crunchyroll confirmed that a final arc of the series Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War would be coming to its platform. This took the internet by storm and fans couldn’t be any more excited for the upcoming episodes.

If you are a guy like me who want to see Bleach fast so that you can catch up before the final arc is complete. Then you are in right place. Here we discussed the complete Bleach watch order with movies and which filler episode you can skip without losing any extra time.

Filler: The Bount arc (Episodes 64-91)

The Bount arc (Episodes 64-91)

Following the Soul Society arc, Bleach embarked on its first set of significant fillers, the Bount arc. The Bount arc is an anime-only arc which means a filler Arc. It was made to allow Tite Kubo to publish more material. The series aired in Japan from January 2006 to August 2006, and in the US from May 2008 to December 2008.

Despite Ichigo’s amazing journey through Soul Society to rescue Rukia, most people consider this to be one of the worst filler arcs in Bleach.

Recommendation: Watch Episode No 64-70 if you do not like it then Skip it.

The New Captain Shūsuke Amagai arc (Episodes 168-189)

In his own right, Shusuke Amagai was a memorable character. The first few episodes of this filler arc definitely show lots of promise…but the pacing falls off severely after a while and makes it difficult to keep up.

Hueco Mundo diverts to an anime-only arc beginning with episode 168 so Tite Kubo can publish more material. From episode 168 onwards. Also, from episode 168 HDTV videos will be presented in 16:9 rather than 4:3. The series aired in Japan on TV Tokyo from April 23, 2008, to October 7, 2008, and in the United States on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim block from August 28, 2010, to January 30, 2011.

The Past arc (Episodes 206-212)

First, you may think that It is a filler arc but it is not. It is one of the best arcs in Bleach anime which told us what happened 100years ago. It will clear our thoughts about-

  • Why Urahara is banned from Soul Society?
  • Who are the Visored?
  • How did Shinji Hirako and others become Hollows?

Zanpakutō Unknown Tales arc (Episodes 230-265)

Bleach saved its best filler arcs for the end of its run. During the Zanpakuto Unknown Tales arc, the idea that Shinigami’s Zanpakuto will rebel against their master is explored quite brilliantly. As it happens, Muramasa, the antagonist at the center of it all, is also a pretty engaging character in his own right.

Gotei 13 Invading Army arc (Episodes 317-342)

The best filler story in Bleach is debated between this arc and Muramasa’s rebellion. The fact that this debate still has no clear answer is a testament to the high quality of both stories.
