The cover of the first DVD compilation released by Aniplex of The Bount Assault on Soul Society arc

The fifth season of the Bleach anime series is named the Bount Assault on Soul Society arc. The episodes are directed by Noriyuki Abe and produced by TV Tokyo, Dentsu, and Studio Pierrot.[1] Unlike previous seasons in the series, this season and season four are not adaptations of the Bleach manga by Tite Kubo. Instead, episodes' plot focuses on the invasion of Soul Society, the home of the Soul Reapers, by the Bount, a race of humans that consume human souls to extend their lives.

The arc initially ran from August 8, 2006 to January 4, 2007 in Japan on TV Tokyo. The English adaptation of the season began airing on December 13, 2008 on Adult Swim and ended on April 11, 2009.[2] Four DVD compilations of the season were released by Aniplex between January 24, 2007 and April 25, 2007 in Japan.[3][4] The first two DVD compilations contain four episodes of the season, and the last two contain five episodes.[5]

The episodes use four pieces of theme music: two opening themes and two ending themes. The opening theme for the first six episodes is "Tonight, Tonight, Tonight" by Beat Crusaders;[6] the rest of the episodes use "Rolling Star" by Yui.[7] The ending themes are Takacha's "Movin!!", used for the first six episodes,[6] and "Baby It's You" by JUNE, used for the remainder of the episodes.[7] The opening and ending themes for episodes 106 to 109 use footage from the Bleach featured film, Bleach: Memories of Nobody, to promote the film, which was released on December 16, 2006.[8]
