Anime games (and particularly arena fighters) have not been good in recent years but I have some optimism that Bleach won't follow that trend. Let's talk about it.

Save arena fighters ichigo..
He will have a sword strong enough to shatter fate!
😭😭😭
Sparking Zero going to solo as it always has for 20 years
Ichigo: No, I'm here to save my friends.
The Sparking Zero and Rebirth of Souls back to back could GENUINELY save anime arena fighters lmao
The Sailor Moon shirt is clean 😭😭😭
The bleach games on DS were some solid 2D anime fighters for handheld. I used to play em all the time as a kid.
@@thasixsage especially the blade of fate that one was my favorite bleach.
faxxx
I plan on trying them out for myself eventually!
@@thasixsage that one bleach strategy ds game was also fire
The Third Phantom was the name I think
The comparison people have been making to Cursed Clash is BEYOND disingenuous because even from the reveal trailer we saw that game was lacking and it was heavily criticized from reveal to release. We weren't blindsided by it being ass. We saw the writing on the wall.
NONE of that is the case with Rebirth of Souls's reveal. Bffr
Agreed
Who is we? Speak for yourself. Cursed Clash is fun.
@dizzyb2309 Okay cool, but that's beside the point.
Whether you liked Cursed Clash or not (and power to you if you do), the point I'm making is that it's disingenuous to compare the fan reaction of Rebirth of Souls to that of Cursed Clash because some folks are saying that the *general* concensus of Cursed Clash was hype, followed by surprise that the game was less than they expected, which was not the case (again, generally speaking).
Whether or not you or I as individuals like Cursed Clash is irrelevant. I'm talking general reception. If anything, the fact that you like it only helps my point because it defies the revisionist narrative that people were surprised at how Cursed Clash turned out, positive or negative.
This comment aged horribly lol
@@lakersfanfreeza1881 ...how?
This bleach shit is serious. Is you in or is you out
FACTS! 😂😂
Nah u guys need 2 chill the dude saying afo should die on twitter is crazy
Lmao bro
@skywalker1217 yeah bro it's a joke nobody's actually taking it that serious except buddy you mentioned
He foul asf for that.
@@skywalker1217 not only that bro racist is hell.
This was real interesting lotus, and it's obvious there's levels to these arena fighters they're not automatically bad, I'd love to see you and Globku do a deeper dive like you mentioned on twitter
same
Yo absolutely
The funny thing is bleach looks like it might be a higher tier arena fighter just from the looks alone
I have had this belief for a long time, people don't dislike anime fighters they dislike what has been done to the genre. Sparking zero and Rebirth could either pave a path for a new era of quality and love or they will not and we will continue to suffer.
BTW: MHA ones justice is good, and Shinobi strikers comeback needs to be studied
I can finally stop playing brave souls once this releases I only play it because the old bleach games were not up to date that’s why I’m hyped for this one
Honestly, I hope this Bleach game ends up decent in terms of appearance and gameplay. Sweet spot I'm hoping for is somewhere between sparking zero and ninja storm connections 🙏🙏🙏
I really hope this game does well. Doesn't need to be the best. I just want to have fun playing this bleach game.
So excited for this bleach. Top 5 favourite anime
We finally getting a proper Bleach game that isn't a damn mobile gacha game since the PS3 musou game. FINALLY!
Soon as you said to get a better understanding of the game. Already knew what was next 😂
Some great arena fighter creators to possibly do a collaboration to talk about the strengths and weaknesses but also the current state of arena fighters are Globku and Afro of course, Stray is one of the most in depth analyzers of Jumpforce and found so much tech for that game, and DracoWolf is a pretty cool MHOJ/Ultra Rumble creator
I liked this type of discussion video, very entertaining!
To me arena fighters are just fan service games. They aren’t bad but people expect them to have an actual competitive scene. These games are group setting party games.
Lotus this thumbnail is Fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
preciate it!
@@LotusAsakura you’re welcome
Seran Kagura Estival Versus PvP was lit ngl
It was. I love senran kagura....unfortunately I'm never getting senran kagura 7EVEN which....upsets me everyday lol. It was announced, the main guy (I'm pretty sure he was) Stepped down from the company, Sony changed it's policies (like some pussies) And no news on it since. I'm upset.
@@DespairfulTwin he was creator of Senran Kagura
I really wanna fight someone on that game again lol
Yeah the games are cool I will bring back the franchise
I hope it release this year I'm tired of having to wait 2+ year for games to drop
Lowkey hope it doesn't i want them take as much time to develop this and besides it'll get outshined by db Sparking 0😂
dope video overall
7:02 I have a strong suspicion that Lotus will one day pick up Kakarot again and say, "Wow, this game is actually pretty good/fun! _😀_ "
I feel like he hasn’t given it enough of a real shot yet- I was unimpressed for the first couple hours then started really messing with it after that
@@ndalt490 i started messing with it after they added the hard difficulty it was too easy on release ngl
@@Jullsfr yea true
You can’t pay me to pick that game up again. I have no idea what other people see in it…
@@owlflame I think if you aren’t really that into rpgs the game feels kind of hollow, which I understand. RPGS are my favorite genre of games so it’s easy for me to get into one, even if it’s pretty average overall
Yo wait the fairy tail and aot games weren't published by bandai?...that feels like it explains a lot because when those games were announced ppl talked about em (not a whole lot about the ft game sequel recently funny enough and I have a lot of ft stuff on my tl) but it's like when they'd release I'd never see ANY content or discussions on them, I'd rarely ever see them advertised or on promotion, matter fact I used to check if that ft games price ever went down but its like it was just...there. bandai seriously has a strong hold over anime games, really hope sparking and rebirth do as well as we hope and make them put effort into anime games from now, because like afro said I really think we could be entering a diamond era of anime games (hxh too)
Saying that tho Afro did a vid on ft, that was all I saw lol
Yeah I actually REALLY enjoyed the Fairy Tail & AoT games personally. Shoutout Koei Tecmo!
Afro put me on to Senran Kagura yearssss ago and to hear you talking about it after some time feels like it came full circle.😂
From the small clips of gameplay it looked kinda similar to kill la kill if. If it played like that I'd be down but honestly I feel like it'll play like evey other bandai arena fighter unfortunately
we'll be getting more gameplay footage in around 45-50 days at Klub outside alongside another Bleach cour 3 trailer just wanted to inform you about this.
Krew beInside to be exact
@@umarabdaziz well krew beinside is a part of Klub outside
Super excited for the console bleach game but I fear it may play blocky. Definitely would’ve taken a warrior styled bleach game that goes to the end of fullbring
I always took it more as there are a bunch of arena fighter anime games (trash or not) that have come out and it's starting to feel oversaturated similar to games as a service/multiplayer focus going on in the industry.
@LotusAsakura Tamsoft has actual experience in 3D fighting games as well they also made battle arena toshinden. It would be cool to see 3D fighter/arena fighter hybrid. I don’t want a storm clone, budokai tenkaichi 3 is the only real arena fighter I believe that gets it right.
Itachi cosplay jumpscare LOOOL but on a serious note I'm very excited about the Bleach game :,) I hope they do the series justice!
I just need to see gameplay
I agree with Lotus here. I just want to say that this game from all the info/details we got and know so far, this game already has more care and passion put into it compared to the other past arena fighters. The fact that that we got the manga author himself involved, Tite Kubo supervising the game so that the story can be as manga accurate as it can possibly be and the sound composer for the game, Takeharu Ishimoto, who's mostly known for his work making the soundtracks for game series like Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. So u already know for a fact, that this game is already going to have a killer soundtrack from the getgo.
All we have left is them the devs, giving us more info/details about the gameplay/mechanics of the game and that is us wondering how Tamsoft is going to handle the gameplay/mechanics of the game and the online play/netcode because I highly doubt it's going to end up having rollback netcode instead it's going to end up having delayed based netcode and hopefully it's good. So more than likely, we will see in due time.
I also forgot to add and point out that the Tamsoft devs also got a classic arena fighter series under their resume and their considered really good games. The first game dates back to 1995 on the PS1 called Battle Arena Toshinden and that series is held at a high standard within the FGC. It also spawned multiple sequels, so there's that. So I really do have some sort of hope for Bleach: Rebirth of Souls to be at least somewhat good or even be great and I think it definitely has the potential to be.
Bro I'm really excited, and i really hope it turns out to be good. But maybe it's because I'm a bleach fiend🤷♂️. That being said, I agree with most of what you've said here, but I do think that kakarot was a decent game(just ok tho)
Something to keep in mind is that Kubo has spilled the bean about a Bleach console game being in the work since 2022.
The thumbnail 😂
Bleach being an arena fighter or not isn't really my issue with the game's development or future. I merely hope it's fun, looks beautiful, feels smooth, prospers and gets the support it deserves as Bleach title after release.
Personally, I have beef with Tamsoft. Not only because of the quality of the PC port of Melty Blood, but because of how they also treated the anime soccer game Captain Tsubasa.
Captain Tsubasa is a game that plays great, has fantastic pve and was nice in pvp, however whenever issues popped up such as a couple of characters needing tweeking for the sake of the game's community, along with the actual connection of the game itself that literally kept us from playing with friends, it didn't get fixed until literally 8 months later. Essentially when we needed the devs the most, they vanished.
Senran Kagura, also is admittedly fun, has shit connection and absolutely no continued support outside of getting another game a year after the next with the exact same problems.
All of that aside, I hope tamsoft gives it the support it needs, when it needs it for everyone's sake.
Actually on the note of connection, wasn't Captain Tsubasa the first anime game to get rollback? (It didn't work well but still)
@@Cam10_84 I don't recall it having rollback. Like you said it was bad either way, but I'm pretty sure it was delayed base
All I know is I’m maiming Soifon no matter what idk what the reviews are I’m playing this shit
Bleach Heat The Soul games on the PSP were my childhood I hope this is as fun as those were the DS games by Arcsys were also amazing
Im very excited. I think there are reasons to think they would be able to make a good game. Im optimistic, but trying to always keep my feet in the ground.
Im also thinking, if this game sells well, that could be the opening for more Bleach games. And my personal dream here would be a DMC style high quality Bleach game. Lets see
Yo you might have something there w that DMC idea👀 I would have definitely taken that if it wasn't a versus fighting game
@@WickedFninja yeah it would be so sick, but its a higher risk from devs and shareholders standpoint, so I agree with their decision of making an Arena Fighter "first" (at least judging by what we now know). I hope it all goes well so different games could come out
At the end of the day with these anime games the most important thing is that they look cool, and feel good. I think so many of these newer games failed because they just stopped looking good because they pumped them out so fast to keep up with the shows running. I don't think Bleach has to worry about that so much because it's long running a popular so they might not have rushed it. It already looks cool so it's half way there. And arena fighters got flouty for some reason and it doesn't look like that either.
Bleach deserves a new game and Bleach enjoyers are used to dealing with some hate so the hype isn't just gonna die no matter how mad arena fighters make people just on principle.
Personally the PEAK of anime games/arena fighters is the Gundam VS series. The movement is unparalleled.
yess I love those games. If only they released a newer version, but this time on all platforms. And those games are also taken pretty competitively in Japan
Yeah but it's arcade only
@@tenkuken7168 maxi boost on is on the PS4
I personally like the clash of Ninja series over the Ninja Storm games. Like ninja storm is a better game overall, but i find myself going back to clash of ninja the most
I will work hard to bring back the senran kagura game
Hopefully this game comes out on switch
It would be cool if this game played like jojo asbr
Off topic but where’d you get the shirt from? 😅
Hope it play like clash of ninja
That would be SICK but I highly doubt that it will.
I hope this is what Kill la Kill if was supposed to be
I personally don't think Shinobi Strikers or Dragon Ball Z Kakarot were that bad. Kakarot is even one of my favorite DB games. But I see why you just didn't mesh with it or have fun. To each their own.
I do have hope that Rebirth of Souls is gonna be a good game. The soundtrack already looks to be a banger, so hopefully everything else will too.
It's not that I think Arena fighters are bad. They're just not to the level of traditional fighting games to me use to play BT3, but after that no more after I started playing dighting games more. Fun as they are for some whenever I see it's an arena fighter they are less balance and lose fun for me.
Gundam vs is like the only competitve one the fgc like. Can that change sure, but haven't found one yet to where an arena fighter can enter the hardcore dighting game scene yet other than gundam vs.
How much will you be streaming that HxH game when it releases? It seems to be the ideal game people talk about wanting so I hope it sells well enough with the others.
I hope this can be a competitive arena fighter like Tenkaichi 3/Sparking Zero. That's the best type of game for BLEACH in my opinion.
I hope for the best.
Isn't this a remake of the PS3 game? There was a Bleach Musou style that we sadly didn't really get much of over here
Nahh this is an entirely new game.
The beat movement in 3d fighters has always been 8way run from Soul Caliber. Also published by Bandai. Please gimme 8 way run 😭
Theres def potential with anime arena fighters. If a renown studio gets a good enough budget and plenty of time to cook I think they could make a banger
You know I hate how much I played bbtag to the point I saw the animations for the senran kagura game and thought “oh he’s playing estival versus” 💀
I really appreciate that you went out of your way to actually try out a game to see what the company's past work was like. I'm personally optimistic, but that's because I just like bleach
There’s another Bleach game coming out on Mobile called Soul Resonance it looks really good
it kinda reminds me of bleach heat the soul series
honestly thanks for making this. I'll say that cautiously optimistic is the best way to put it too. I'll admit sparking zero looks pretty good, but the past projects that the devs have done gives cause for concern. It really is a bit disheartening when i see others cover and go "Hmm well i really do think this part could be better- but DAMN IT LOOKS SO GOOD!" and i'm just here like, but what was that about the actual criticism to improve the game? Something looking good only does so much.
As the only way to learn about the game right now being an outsider listening to the select few who have had access to it, hearing what sounds like fan boys falling into the same trap of the selling point being to play their favorite characters in an arena fighter is just a little disheartening. probably a pessimistic mindset but i can't believe that everything is nearly flawless. i've seen a few criticisms for sure but it really is a few. Could just be too little time spent on it. Maybe them sticking so close to Tenkaichi 3 combat was the right play and there truly isn't much to worry about. hopefully they can come out with an actual demo to try out on console or something for the public to try as a whole.
@Te.ll.e-lotusasakura oh boy what an opportunity!
Don’t worry lotus I’m ten toes down on the kakarot hate with you , even when I got it on sell I couldn’t bring myself to finish , couldve used that 20$ on McDonald’s or sum 😭😭
lotus!
Have you played battle of z? Cause kakarot is amazing
This game did survive the apparent house cleaning Bamco made post their poor financial results so, i guess, we can hope?
As someone who has (unashamedly) played most of the Senran Kagura games, it really is somewhat of a mixed bag imo. Estival Versus is what it is, I think it's fairly solid. Movement wise, I think Burst Re:Newal is better but I also think I just like the gameplay of Estival more. The best game in some aspects by far for me is Peach Beach Splash, especially since it's so fast and high octane action, but it is also a third person shooter so some elements might not carry over to Bleach. I kinda just ignore Neptunia x Senran Kagura because a lot of things felt not really good in that game and I really hope the only thing they take from that game is the clean animations. I definitely like the gameplay of the series, so learning that Tamsoft is behind Bleach makes me a bit more optimistic for it, I just hope they can take all of the good aspects of those games and proceed to make something even better with them.
Also when the hell they gonna drop Senran Kagura 7even
One piece pirate warriors series is pretty good so is that recent one piece rpg tbh one piece has pretty decent to good games
I picked up estival versus and the one that's a remake of the first senran kagura game a couple of years ago moreso as a joke because I had seen them on CZcams and thought they were hilariously overly horny games.
However, I am a huge fan of Hack n' slash / musou games like the Warrior's series and Devil May Cry so I also went through that same mindset where I was like "this game is ridiculous buuuuut the gameplay is actually pretty well made
Tenkachi series has the best movement in the genre imo storm definitely a close second
Shinobi strikers is actually pretty fun
I was so pissed when shinobi striker came out. I played it 1 time and never looked back
People quickly dunked on this because of the “arena fighter” thing but those examples were ass. Bleach is too much of a legendary series to be given the cursed clash treatment. Would a fighterz treatment be better? Sure then people would complain “it’s another fighterz clone ugh” then again people complain about everything. If you’re a bleach fan at the very least you should be hyped, the last legit fighting game bleach had was on the Wii so it’s take what we can get 🤣 but if it sucks, you guys better let them know. JJK can fail who cares, Bleach tho? Hell no. Hopefully Tokyo Game Show has more info on it, how online combat looks like, Ui, roster expectations which I assume 100+ considering we going from episode 1 to the Quincy Arc. Less than 50 it’s DOA straight up, you gotta have everyone in this bitch even Kon Ichigo lol. I just want that beautiful PS5 box art on my shelf. A new Bleach fighting game…goddamn we made it
I like arena fighters if done right
The sucky thing is that just purely on gameplay this game has a chance to not be good. Because even seeing what we've seen so far everything else is gonna be good: Graphics, music, cutscenes, content.
At the very least even if this doesn't match up to dragonball games and the early storm games theres no way it can be lumped in with cursed clash and the one punch man game cause it has one thing they don't. Passion. The guy who did the guitar for the trailer song is the actor for byakuya in the live action movie. Kubo and the anime studio are involved with production. It's had at least 2 years of production. And the dude who's composing the ost has a damn strong resume. Even the trailer is super artsy.
Only the gameplay is a big question mark and its make or break for the game.
I'm a fan and for sure I am excited, also the bleach games on DS are great for what their worth. Expectations are neutral with me, do I want it to be good? Absolutely, but if it's not incredible, I appreciate the attempt of a console since the last one was on the PS3. It's how I feel about the Hunter x Hunter game as well. I think I'm more excited for the variety of anime games than anything else.
Damn....only today did I hear Black Clover got a game...rip...love that show...guess it's a good thing I hadn't heard about it
The only thing that can save arena fighters is good online and the anime community wont even ask for that so yeah theres not really much hope of them being seen as legit or competitive until that is there
I wish we could get anime platform fighters
Talking about good anime games, One Piece Pirate Warriors 3. No lie, it got me back into One Piece after years. Goes from the very beginning to the start of Dressrosa. Honestly, if the new Bleach game turns out to not be an arena fighter and more of a Hack and Slash or Musou game, Im 100% in.
I didn't play them but what happened with the demon slayer game also The latest storm game I thought people liked them
While me, I want a Kakarot style RPG game for Bleach. But, I'm glad we're getting a Bleach game.
And bruh, how did you not like Kakarot. I thought it was amazing.
Nah I love the senran kagura games, I get every one when they first drop. Ryobi FTW!
If you dont make videos with Globku on this i WILL riot
Battle shounens like bleach, and Naruto can't really be at the best in different genres. I'm not saying that they can't try, but it won't be at it's highest
If people are really feening for a "real" anime fighting game like they claim people will show out for HxH Nen Impact. Before anyone brings it up yeah I'm obviously aware of the visuals, but whenever people complain about arena fighters they always speak on it from the angle of mechanical depth,and if Nen Impact ends up being as grimy as any other versus fighter I hope those people put their money where their mouth is. Cause that's what they want (allegedly)
It's unfortunate the only 2D anime game since fighterz has the budget of 10 pennies. If it had bandai budget more casuals probably would've be on board
@@kei7540 For sure, but also it begs the question if visuals are the first priority before mechanics/gameplay are would arena fighters be okay for those players as long as it's CC2 quality visuals?
I am excited for that
Didn’t Sparking Zero already saved the arena fighter genre?
it's not really an arena fighter, arena fighters are usually seen as games like the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm Series, My Hero One's Justice, Jump Force,(and I think Tekken but idk bout that).
@@BlxnkSpaceWhat you mean Sparking Zero isn’t an Arena Fighter? Then what is it?
Sparking zero and most dragon ball games will do well by fan service alone
@@sleepylmguy9968 Personally I think it's maps are too big to be a "arena fighter" but that's just me. I honestly don't know what to call it but a big arena fighter.
@@BlxnkSpace Storm wouldn't even exist without Sparking, and by extension, neither will it's derivatives. What are you on about?
8:25
Demon slayer was hella fun. The gameplay was a lot better than storm but damn the online was bad. So much input delay was baked in when you went online and ranked was stuck on 30 fps because of the ps4 version and there were no lobbies at launch. I'd probably put up with bad online if the game was baded on a different series like Bleach
Please do a playthrough of Pokémon platinum or Pokémon black.
My biggest issue with Arena Fighters is that frequently characters are scaled to their anime power levels. You can see this in the old Tenkaichi games, or the Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm games. This means that over half of the roster is unplayable because they're so insanely weak compared to the main cast. Sure some weak characters might have a cheese move or something but generally speaking if you pick your favorite character isn't a main hero or villain you basically lose at the selection screen. 2D fighters are often way more balanced, or at least aren't intentionally unbalanced.
Nen Impact please save us!
Bleach will not hxh
@@lolsnez7542 I don’t know bro? Bleach looking real Mickey right now.
@@sairsanchez3871Nen impact barely has a budget of six hundred thousand
I get a dragon ball Kararot vibes for this game rather then a arena fighter
Always wanted a arena fighting bleach game kakarot is bad cause of super armor sadly also storm connections was boring and bad bar minimum new stuff its just copypaste
I agree with all the points, but the Kakarot slander is still crazy to me after all these years.
I can see it not being peoples favorite game, but it's far from being bad, let alone the worst Dragon Ball game(Legacy of Goku 2, and Buu's Fury are beloved, but the first one is ass, and there's some other pretty dog shit DB Games).
Legacy of Goku, for it's time, is a fine game. It might be hard to go back to but I would still rather play it for nostalgia than play Kakarot today. LoG II & Buu's Fury are head & shoulders above for sure though.
@@LotusAsakura I agree that for it's time the first LoG was fine, but I'm just saying Kakarot was built better to where even if a decade down the line it's not looked back on as the absolute best DB Game(because it's definitely not), it will at least not fall of nearly as much as LoG1.
Last bleach game was in 2011 and it was a musou (no disrespect to that game or genre, I just want a Bleach Fighting game first and foremost)
While I want this game to be peak, I really don't care as I just want a modern Bleach Fighting game and this game is giving us that
All this to say, this is something I've been waiting for and there are zero modern console Bleach Fighting games and this is the only one that will exist so im buying this immediately
Db games are a dime a dozen, bleach games are a rarity
Naw fam you definitely alone with that kakarot slander.
Won't lie Shinobi strikers is defo one of the best anime games we've gotten like It started off completely ass don't get me wrong but when season 2 started it got way better and now we are even getting maps and (I think new game modes)and it's very addictive but season 1 of shinobi is what killed it for alot of people
I said it before and I'll say it again: We need a Bleach character creator(not a Bleach Xenoverse-), like give us something like that for Bleach and One Piece
Imagine saying shinobi striker is bad when the comunity is very alive and they are getting another season
It took a long time for it to get good bro
@@00pium_D3vil no it realy didnt man the games been good since it came out, just because its your type of game doesnt mean other people dont enjoy it
@@KurayamiSaidai bro it went so long without getting new modes and maps. It was so repetitive..
@@00pium_D3vil …… when was the last time xenoverse 2 or fighterz added a new mode? Games can still be good and hold a player base without adding modes, maps i can agree but i mean its an overwatch style naruto game i dont think maps are a priority when they had like 7 at launch
I stopped playing strikers a long time ago, but I'd sound dumb if I said that strikers wasn't a good game. Clearly, there's a community for it, and it's alive and well.
Saying Kakarot is the worst dragonball game when sagas ultimate tenkaichi and daiketsu exist is wild lol
Kakarot's gameplay being as bad as it is in TODAY'S age is far worse than games being released 20 years ago and not being good lol.
I never really cared about arena fighter tbh, I'll play it casually with friends/family which I believe they should focus on. Some casual fun gameplay with fun flashy colors, and good solo content. Story mode doesn't count. (Though a kingdom hearts/DMC type Bleach game would better! Just saying)
Yeah a action game probably would've been better
@@kei7540 it's what I wished Kill La Kill if would be, but unfortunately we got 3d arena with no content
Brother, just keep it a buck or be more real with yourself. Anime arena fighters are BAD with the exception of the Tenkaichi series and the storm series. Those are the only 2 that did it right/well and the main reason Sparking Zero has the hype it does is because it's basically another Tenkaichi which we know means we finally get a other installment of one of the only 2 good anime arena fighters. All we've gotten was storm for the past 15 years and most people who played both find Tenkaichi to be superior to storm from a gameplay and mechanic standpoint..
That being said, I am also hyped for what this bleach game could be but my expectations will be tempered simply because it's an anime arena fighters that isn't storm or Tenkaichi and they barely showed us any gameplay? Seems pretty fair to think there's a strong possibility this could be another awful anime arena flop...
