Toushiro Hitsugaya Is the Next Bleach Rebirth of Souls Captain to Appear

Bandai Namco regularly releases Bleach Rebirth of Souls trailers every Monday, and Toushiro Hitsugaya is the star of the one for September 16, 2024. He marks the third active Gotei 13 captain to appear as a playable character in the game. 

Like Rangiku Matsumoto, Hitsugaya is a part of Squad 10. His trailer begins by introducing him as the youngest captain. He was named so due to his talent. He wields the Zanpakuto Hyorinmaru, which allows him to deal ice damage. Unlike other characters, he has a special Tenso Jyurin gauge that can build up as he fights and attacks enemies. Being hit or not going on the offensive makes it drop. His two Spiritual Pressure attacks are Soten Hyogeki, which deals ranged ice damage, and Hyoryu Renbu lets you rush up to assault an enemy. Things close out with the Daiguren Hyorinmaru Bankai. 

Here’s the full Toushiro Hitsugaya Bleach Rebirth of Souls trailer.
