Where to Watch Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity Episode 6?

US fans of Bleach can watch the upcoming Episode 6 on Hulu, and global fans can enjoy it on Disney+ (JioHotstar and Anime Times for India). For Japanese fans, the streaming options are plenty: U-NEXT, d Anime Store, Amazon Prime Video, Netflix, DMM TV, ABEMA, and many others have confirmed to carry the episodes of the final saga weekly. We have also received reports that Netflix is streaming the episodes in the Philippines.

Although Bleach is one of the most popular shonen anime titles – one of the best shonen anime of all time – only Hulu is currently holding the streaming rights in the US, as other giants like Crunchyroll and Netflix do not seem to be carrying the title in their libraries. However, since the aforementioned platforms do carry the title partially, a future addition is not completely out of the question.

What to Expect from Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity Episode 6?

If you have followed Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War – The Calamity Episode 5, you already know what to look forward to in the upcoming episode. Uryu and Jugram’s battle is at its peak, with Uryu making his final attempt to neutralize Jugram’s borrowed Almighty powers, using his own Schrift powers, The Antithesis. While the former claims that it will neutralize the Almighty Jugram borrowed from Yhwach, only the upcoming episode will tell us for certain.

Speaking of Yhwach, there’s Orihime’s sacrifice in Episode 5 that became the ultimate highlight of the previous episode. While the previous episode continued the emotional roller coaster saga with multiple deaths and Orihime’s constant healings, only one question remains in the mind of every fan: What happened to Orihime at the end of Episode 5? The upcoming episode will likely answer that question, but one thing is for sure: Based on the manga, she is still alive, so don’t worry.

To sum it up, the upcoming Episode 6 has the potential to answer a lot of questions pending in The Calamity as of now: The outcome of Zaraki, Toshiro, and Byakuya vs. Gerard Valkyrie? Urahara and Grimmjow’s fate? Orihime and Yhwach’s disappearance? Outcome of Uryu vs. Jugram? Now it’s only a matter of a few days before we see which ones Pierrot Films decides to address in the upcoming episode of Part 4, the final season.
