Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War
The final arc animated a decade after the original series ended, with a new opening for each cour in the tradition the show established.
Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War opens with a main title sequence of 96 seconds.
At 96 seconds, it opens well above the 58-second median for animation sequences in this catalogue.
It arrived on TV Tokyo in 2022, when Boruto: Naruto Next Generations, Chainsaw Man and Spy × Family were also on the network.
