How long will it take to watch Bleach?

Bleach is a long anime that moves back and forth with stories. However, you can skip right to the main story with our filler guide. The anime is based on the protagonist - Ichigo Kurosaki, who receives the powers of Soul Reaper from Rukia Kuchiki and takes a journey that will change his life. The original manga has many characters and side characters unrelated to the main story. However, the directors included the side characters in the anime adaptation to keep the anime going for years. Though the anime was abruptly ended in 2012, fans never get to see the real ending to the show. 
However, the anime is making a comeback in October 2022 with its last arc- Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War. If we combine everything that Bleach has produced so far, it can take months to watch every episode of the series entirely. 
However, you don’t have to bother because our guide will give you the perfect episodes to watch, and you can complete the entire Beach chronology in less than ten weeks. Now that we got the elephant out of the room let’s see what is the correct order to watch Bleach?

Bleach filler episodes list

Now to understand how filler episodes work, we have to know what is the difference between Canon and filler. A canon episode is something that is adapted as it is from the original manga. Whereas filler episodes contain content that is neither available in manga and may not be approved by the author. However, sometimes, the storyboards mix canon episodes with filler and wise versa. Here is a quick look at Bleach canon, filler, and mixed episodes, followed by the correct watch order.
