The big wave of remakes won’t end

If you enjoy watching films and series on various SVOD services such as Disney+ or Netflix, you have probably noticed that remakes are particularly trendy at the moment. Whether it is to make a live-action adaptation of an animated work or simply to revive the hype of a saga, they seem to be legion and everything indicates that it will not stop. We can count among the most recent examples, for example One piece

which benefited from a live-action adaptation on Netflix a few months ago. Satisfactory for some, too “cosplay” for others, but it must be admitted that the latter had its qualities and knew how to introduce the universe to many new fans.

Inspired by this success, Netflix didn’t give up and recently broadcast another live-action adaptation: that of the animated series Avatar: The Last Airbender. Unfortunately, the latter was a little less successful, even if many viewers seem to be satisfied as it is one of the most watched series at the moment. Soon, Netflix subscribers will be able to find the first episodes of One Piece in a completely remastered version, which will hopefully be a little more concise than the basic version of the anime, although it’s still too early to know. As you will have understood, the era is characterized by remakes, and this fashion does not seem to be limited to Netflix.

A remake for Bleach soon?

If you discovered the world of manga and anime in the 2000s, you surely know what we call them “Big Three”. This term actually hides the three legends One piece, Naruto et bleaching who simply dominated manga and anime sales in their golden age. Even if One Piece is still in very good condition today, it has to be admitted that the tide has turned for Naruto and for Bleach, even if the latter still enjoys a certain popularity thanks to the story arc Thousand Year Blood War is currently streaming on Disney+. But while we thought the latter would be the end of Bleach, its creator seems to have other plans.

As a matter of fact, Tite Kubo recently admitted that he would definitely like to remake the anime version of Bleach. It has to be said that the latter was full of filler episodes and that, even if the original soundtrack and fights were unanimous at the time of broadcast, fans deserved a version that was a little more faithful to the manga. As for a possible remake, The mangaka said on his own blog that he “wants it to happen” and that he wants the latter to “faithfully follow the original work.”

Enough to give hope to fans of Ichigo and the rest of the Shinigami, although we’ll certainly have to wait a while before such a wish becomes a reality. For now, you’ll have to make do with the manga and its animated version, which you can currently watch in full on Disney+. Meanwhile, the third part of Thousand Year Blood War is still scheduled to appear in 2024.
