Jump Festa 2005: The Sealed Sword Frenzy

[Itachi 216]

I read this little bit when I was at the Bleach series section in the main page. I've heard many things about this and also seen a few images. This is supposed to be the second Bleach OVA (ova instead of the movie that was confirmed?). Here is what I have on this:

Spoiler for synopsis:

"It contains the original video animation, BLEACH ~The Sealed Sword Frenzy~. The DVD jacket will be illustrated by Kubo Tite, and will include two postcards. One postcard is of the cover, and the second is the anime version of the cover. The special feature included on the DVD is a no-credits version of the ending sequence.
Renji's going to be appearing in street clothes in some scenes.
Other Shinigami besides Hitsugaya appearing seem to include, Shunsui, Soi Fong, and Yoruichi. The Kurosaki family's also going to be getting time in the spotlight. The first fight scene unveiled is between Hitsugaya and the original villain Bai Shen. The OVA is slated to be a 30 minute production. Kubo's announced that the ending sequence for the OVA will be very tender and touching.
The plot is as follows: A Shinigami named Baishin who was sealed by Soul Society long ago is set free on Earth. On a fateful day Ichigo encounters him and has roughly half of his reiatsu drained. Its now up to Ichigo and Soul Society to finally put a stop to Baishin and his destruction."

Does anyone have any more info on this?

Hmm I don't but thanks for telling me I'll try and look out for some information

[Itachi 216]

I just found some similar info about this on AnimeNewsNetwork.com. The chances of it being fake are very few so I'll try and get more info on this.

That confirms it then. Do you also know a release date or something like that?

[Illuyankas]

It's nice to see that Soi Fon and Yoruichi are working together, and Shunsui and Ukitake will be around for this, but I have two questions about this.
A. Why does Bai Shen look like Doomsday from the Superman dies comic, and
B. WHY is Hanatarou wearing a dress? EDIT: Sorry, ENORMOUS shorts that look like a dress?

[Winter&Summer]

Whoa good one Kona

Im not exactly sure but i heard this year.

[Itachi 216]

Yeah I think Q2 or Q3 of 2006. Shouldnt take longer for a 30 minute show.
PS: Renji looks like a complete retard with the sunglasses and gun. Mafia guy doesnt quite suit him.

[Taylor--]

Looks interesting. Also looks like a bit much to cover in only 30 mins, I'm hoping for the best.

[Komataguri]

ZOMG HANATARO!!!!!!!!


I have to see it, Just for the fact that Hanataro is in it.

[U<3Anime]

lol it seems hanatarou is wearing a female uniform...

[Wolcik]

dunno how they want to put so much in 30 minutes show? it should be 1h
it'll be hilarous but the bad guy doesn't seem enough badass
too bad it takes some from my fanart plot :P

[Itachi 216]

Is it just me or does the bad guy look like Kenpachi?

I heard on this forum that bad guy should be long lost Kenpachi brother or something, but looking at this guy and hearing the plot, I doubt it

The new OVA seems interesting but it's a bit short. I hope it won't be too rushed.

[vhx]

Yes, and it was suppose to be out 2-4 months ago... wonder why it was pushed back.

[Itachi 216]

Maybe it WAS shown but no one encoded it? Lunar subbed the 2004 jump fiesta after it was out on DVD (they subbed the dvd version). Maybe that's the case.
