No. Bleach: Thousand-Year Blood War Part 3 is subtitled The Conflict; it is followed by Part 4, The Calamity, the concluding installment of the anime adaptation. The official anime site has a separate Part 4 story page, and VIZ’s 2026 announcement describes The Calamity as bringing viewers closer to the story’s conclusion.
What is Part 3, and what comes after it?
Part 3 is The Conflict, not the end of the Thousand-Year Blood War anime. The next installment is Part 4, The Calamity, which is presented as the adaptation’s concluding installment. The official anime site distinguishes Part 4 from Parts 1–3 and publishes a dedicated story page for The Calamity.
VIZ’s December 8, 2024 viewing guide identifies The Conflict as Part 3 and listed its finale as episodes 39 and 40, scheduled for December 28, 2024. That was the schedule announced at the time, rather than an indication that the overall anime had finished. Read VIZ’s Part 3 guide.
When did the final installment arrive?
VIZ announced that Part 4, The Calamity, would premiere on July 25, 2026, at 7:30 a.m. PDT. The announcement listed Hulu as exclusive in the United States and Disney+ in select international markets. VIZ’s announcement calls it the latest installment and describes it as moving the audience closer to the conclusion.

Where can you watch Part 3?
VIZ’s Part 3 guide listed Hulu in the United States and Disney+ internationally for its weekly streaming release. Language and dub options differed by territory. Streaming catalogs and rights can change, so treat that as guidance from the dated guide and check the service available in your region for current access.
For Part 4, VIZ’s August 28, 2026 guide provides region and schedule details; some dates listed there fall after October 8, 2026, so they are announced dates rather than completed releases. See VIZ’s Part 4 guide for its listed information.

How does the anime relate to the manga?
Thousand-Year Blood War adapts the final arc of Tite Kubo’s Bleach manga. The official BLEACH anime site describes the project as the anime adaptation of the series’ final arc; VIZ likewise identifies The Calamity as an adaptation of Kubo’s manga. The sources cited here do not establish a specific manga volume as the correct starting point for Part 3.
