Japanese fashion brand Graniph has officially unveiled a new clothing and accessories collection inspired by the popular anime BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War.

The new “BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War × Graniph” collection features 17 items themed around the Shikai releases of the Soul Reapers’ Zanpakuto, with designs inspired by characters including Ichigo Kurosaki, Byakuya Kuchiki, Sosuke Aizen and Toshiro Hitsugaya.

Created by Tite Kubo, BLEACH began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2001 and follows teenager Ichigo Kurosaki, who gains the powers of a Soul Reaper after an encounter with Rukia Kuchiki, drawing him into conflicts involving Soul Society, Hollows and increasingly powerful supernatural enemies.
