The first Bleach movie, “Memories of Nobody”, was acquired by Viz for a North American release in theaters his Summer and on DVD in the Winter. The second Bleach movie, “The Diamond Dust Rebellion”, is no longer in theaters in Japan and DVD release is assumed to be “around the corner”, thanks to a certain group of fans (hint: “Believe it!” in Japanese) we all know and don’t love. While we are waiting for the next Bleach movie to be released, let’s speculate, shall we? ^_^

I hope so…we need to see more of Toshiro and less of Ichigo. Actually, every character in the series, especially one of my favorite characters, Byakuya Kuchiki. It will be a year before we can see a decent quality version of the movie–or, perhaps, finding a free plane ticket to Japan!
