Team Liquid is back with another anime crossover, and this one’s going to hit BLEACH fans right in the nostalgia. The esports powerhouse has teamed up with the legendary anime BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War for a brand-new apparel line inspired by the show’s iconic characters and style.

Set to launch on October 8th, the collection features a mix of streetwear and fandom flair that perfectly captures the energy of both Team Liquid and BLEACH. The line will be available exclusively through Team Liquid’s official merch store.

From what’s been revealed so far, the lineup includes four standout pieces: a jacket showcasing BLEACH’s main hero Ichigo Kurosaki, a colourful bomber jacket, a t-shirt featuring the intimidating Yhwach, and a soft sweater printed with Kisuke Urahara. Prices haven’t been confirmed yet, but fans can expect them to align with previous anime collabs from Team Liquid.

BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War is the climactic final arc of Tite Kubo’s long-running series and marks the return of the beloved anime after years off-air. Its revival has reignited a wave of fan enthusiasm worldwide, making this collaboration a timely celebration of both gaming and anime culture.

Anime and Esports Collide

Team Liquid has built a strong reputation for blending esports with pop culture. In the past, the organisation has released collections inspired by Naruto Shippuden and Death Note, the latter including themed mousepads, keycaps, and other gaming gear.

They’re not alone, either. Sentinels recently partnered with Haikyuu through Crunchyroll. The anime-esports connection doesn’t stop at apparel, it’s making waves in games too.

With the BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War collection, Team Liquid continues to blur the lines between competitive gaming and anime fandom, creating something that speaks to both communities.
