Bleach is a 2018 live action film based on the manga of the same name by Tite Kubo. Produced by Warner Bros. and directed by Shinsuke Sato, the film tells the story of Ichigo Kurosaki (Sota Fukushi) — an orange-haired Japanese teenager with the unusual ability to see spirits. Ichigo's already unusual life is turned upside-down when a young woman in a black kimono appears in his room, introducing herself as Rukia Kuchiki (Hana Sugisaki) — a Soul Reaper tasked with sending ghosts to the afterlife and slaying monstrous evil spirits called Hollows. When Ichigo's family is attacked by a Hollow, Rukia is injured and forced to transfer her powers to him, tasking him with fighting Hollows in her stead until he becomes powerful enough to survive returning her powers to her. However, Ichigo's activities draw the ire of Uryū Ishida (Ryo Yoshizawa) — the last surviving member of the Quincy, mystical archers antagonistic towards the Soul Reapers; and Rukia finds herself hunted by fellow Soul Reapers Renji Abarai (Taichi Saotome) and her elder brother Byakuya Kuchiki (Miyavi) for the crime of transferring her powers to a human.A teaser trailer was released on February 21st, 2018 — and was praised by fans for its accurate rendition of the manga's first chapter. The film was released in Japan on July 20, 2018 and has been picked up by Netflix for a worldwide release on September 14, 2018.

Darker and Edgier: While the film has its fair share of comedic moments, it lacks the wackiness that the manga had. Urahara doesn't play The Gadfly, Isshin is a little more somber, and comic relief figures like Kon and Don Kanonji are completely absent.

comment
Adaptational Villainy: Byakuya cornered Grand Fisher in Karakura Town and could have slain it any time he wanted to, yet leaves the dirty work to Ichigo, whose inexperience leads to a lengthy fight with lots of collateral damage. He then casually reneges on his deal with Ichigo and Rukia by trying to kill them. Unlike the manga, where Renji injures Uryu because the latter challenged him, here Renji stabs him from behind with no provocation. Soul Society is just a tad crueler this time around. Rukia is just charged with transferring her powers to a human, just like the manga, however Byakuya states it's possible for her to be pardoned if she kills Ichigo and even encourages her to do so as it would be seen as the right move in the Soul Society's eyes.

Adapted Out
 Bleach / int_33d5b7f2
comment
Adapted Out: An unfortunate consequence of trying to compress 8 volumes worth of manga into a less-than 2 hour-long movie is that a lot of the supporting cast had to be kicked to the curb: Mizuiro is cut, leaving Keigo and Chad as Ichigo's sole school friends. Orihime and Tatsuki's school friends; Michiru, Ryo, Mahana and Chizuru are cut. Not only is Kon cut, but the entire concept of Mod Souls don't appear to exist in the movie continuity. Shrieker and Yuuichi, the boy in the parakeet's body are left out as Chad's character arc is skipped over. This also results in his Abuelo being cut, alongside the story behind his coin necklace as well as the story behind why Ichigo calls him "Chad" in the first place. Sora Inoue is gone as Orihime's character arc was also skipped over, which cuts out the story of her hairpins. Don Kanonji is out, as the Demi-Hollow plot is skipped. Souken Ishida is not even mentioned. As a result, Uryu holds a grudge against Soul Reapers because they wiped out his tribe, not because of their Murder by Inaction of his grandfather. Jinta, Ururu, Tessai, and Yoruichi do not appear, most likely due to Urahara being Demoted to Extra and the story not progressing to the Soul Society arc. The bears in Rukia's illustrated explanation about Hollows and Pluses don't appear in the film.

However, in her closing monologue she states he might regain his memories, which it's implied he does.

comment
Adaptational Alternate Ending: The movie basically asks "What if Bleach ended after its first arc?". As a result, the entirety of the story is seemingly wrapped up with Rukia returning to Soul Society and Ichigo having his memory of her wiped, although it can be debated if the final scene of him seemingly regaining said memories is just a slight alleviation to the Bittersweet Ending or a full blown Sequel Hook.

Adaptational Superpower Change
 Bleach / int_538273bd
comment
Adaptational Superpower Change: In the manga, Rukia transfers her powers to Ichigo by stabbing him in the chest with her Zanpakuto. The same occurs in the movie, with the added wrinkle that it's possible for Ichigo to do the same to her to give her her powers back, which would have been incredibly useful in the manga's continuity. However, it requires a tremendous amount of Spiritual Pressure and doing it unprepared would instantly result in Ichigo's death. Ultimately, they pull it off at the end of the movie, despite Ichigo being on the brink of death. Soul Reapers have the ability to become more powerful each time they defeat a Hollow, which is not present in the original.

Sequel Hook: Shinsuke Sato has stated that he hopes to make a trilogy, with the second film adapting the Soul Society arc, and this film establishes set-ups for potential sequels. Byakuya tells Renji that the order to capture or kill Rukia came from "higher up", indicating that they're just The Heavy for the real Big Bad; Chad and Orihime begin to awaken their own supernatural abilities, sensing Ichigo's presence during his fight with Grand Fisher; and at the film's conclusion, Rukia is taken back to Soul Society to be punished for her "crimes," and erases Ichigo's memories of her. However, he finds the note she wrote in his textbook the day she came to his school, which seemingly restores his memories.

Our Ghosts Are Different: Pluses/Wholes are the spirits of deceased people who remain in the World of the Living due to various regrets. Hollows are the corrupted spirits that have succumbed to negative emotions, transforming into ravenous monsters. Soul Reapers are psychopomps who inhabit the feudal Japanese Mundane Afterlife of Soul Society, tasked with hunting Hollows and sending Pluses to the afterlife.

Adaptational Badass: Ichigo, though he initially started out as Adaptational Wimp due to having poor control over his otherwise abnormally high spiritual energy and failing to kill the second Hollow he encounters. This trope kicks in when he manages to kill Grand Fisher, who was out of his league in the manga. Fishbone, the Hollow that attacks Ichigo's family, has a telescopic neck and almost swallows Rukia whole when it tries to eat Ichigo. It also appeared to be charging a Cero to blast Rukia point-blank, though she interrupted its attack with a Sōkatsui. Rukia is shown being highly adept at swordplay, which the manga implied was something she had only the bare minimum experience in. Minor example, but Yuzu is able to see and hear ghosts and Hollows, while in the original, she could not.

It's Played With for Ichigo. Given that a flashback shows him with black hair as a child, his current day hair is a darker shade of orange than its manga counterpart, and Sota Fukushi's black roots clearly are showing, it appears that Ichigo isn't a natural redhead in this continuity but actually has black hair and dyed it orange.

Adaptation Dye-Job
 Bleach / int_a4414a05
comment
Adaptation Dye-Job: The entire Kurosaki family (sans Isshin and Karin who were already dark-haired): It's Played With for Ichigo. Given that a flashback shows him with black hair as a child, his current day hair is a darker shade of orange than its manga counterpart, and Sota Fukushi's black roots clearly are showing, it appears that Ichigo isn't a natural redhead in this continuity but actually has black hair and dyed it orange. Masaki Kurosaki also has black hair in the aforementioned flashback rather than her brown hair from the manga, this leads credence to the above theory as Ichigo canonically got his hair color from his mother. Yuzu also has plain dark hair instead of blonde as she and Karin are Identical Twins in this continuity. Outside of the Kurosaki family, Orihime has darker, almost brown hair as opposed to the chestnut color of the manga.

Cool Sword: The Soul Reapers wield mystical swords called Zanpakuto, each having its own name and unique abilities. Zangetsu — Ichigo's Zanpakuto — is a sword as long as he is tall. Zabimaru — Renji's Zanpakuto — can transform into a serrated sword that extends into a bladed whip.

Demoted to Extra: Not only are Chad and Orihime's character arcs cut, they do not receive their powers or any form of spiritual awareness until the very end, where they're vaguely able to sense Ichigo battling Grand Fisher. Urahara, the mysterious Famed in Story Eccentric Mentor, is reduced to a bit-part. Even his Mysterious Past, which was slowly alluded to over the course of the series, is revealed in a throwaway line of dialogue.

Adaptational Backstory Change
 Bleach / int_ba46585b
comment
Adaptational Backstory Change: Grand Fisher is given a backstory that differs from its manga self. In the manga it was a masculine Hollow with an unknown backstory other than that Soul Society had been hunting it for fifty years; but in the movie Rukia reveals that it was originally a young girl — whose form it uses as the default appearance of its lure.

Compressed Adaptation
 Bleach / int_bdc94cd9
comment
Compressed Adaptation: The film covers the first eight volumes of the manga — meaning that a lot of material is skipped or compressed to fit into its timeframe. Acidwire, Shrieker, Kon, Don Kanonji, and the Demi-Hollow are skipped over, and Grand Fisher takes the place of the Menos Grande during the duel between Ichigo and Uryū.

Bystander Syndrome: At first, Ichigo doesn't want to be a Substitute Soul Reaper, even after Rukia points out that if he doesn't do anything, a lot of people will be killed by Hollows, saying it has nothing to do with him and he'll only fight to protect his family. He ultimately finds he can't ignore it when he sees a little boy ghost being attacked by a Hollow.

Ichigo, though he initially started out as Adaptational Wimp due to having poor control over his otherwise abnormally high spiritual energy and failing to kill the second Hollow he encounters. This trope kicks in when he manages to kill Grand Fisher, who was out of his league in the manga.
