Bleach Gets a Brand-New Hindi Dub Cast From Episode 52

What Happened

Ani-One India announced on February 24, 2026 that Bleach will receive a completely new Hindi dub starting from Episode 52, with a new dubbing studio and an entirely new voice cast.

The Backstory

The original Bleach Hindi dub (Episodes 1-51, released on MX Player) faced widespread criticism from Indian anime fans. Viewers across Reddit, X/Twitter, and YouTube called out the voice performances as flat, mispronounced, and out of sync with the show's tone.

Ani-One India heard the feedback and responded with action instead of silence.

What Is Changing

Episodes 1–51: Original Hindi dub remains as-is and will NOT be redubbed

Episode 52 onward: Completely new dubbing studio and new voice cast

Episode 52 marks the beginning of Season 2 the Soul Society: The Rescue arc

No release date has been announced yet for when the new dub begins streaming

Why This Matters

This is one of the first times an Indian anime distributor has responded to quality criticism by replacing a dub cast mid-series. It signals that Indian fans now have real influence over how anime is localized for the country.
