The seventh season of the Bleach anime series is named the Arrancar: The Hueco Mundo Sneak Entry arc. The episodes are directed by Noriyuki Abe and produced by TV Tokyo, Dentsu, and Studio Pierrot.[1] They are based on Tite Kubo's Bleach manga series, and adapt the 26th through 28th volumes of the manga over twenty episodes. The episodes' plot follows Ichigo Kurosaki's journey to Hueco Mundo to rescue Orihime Inoue, who was kidnapped by the arrancar under the command of former Soul Reaper captain Sōsuke Aizen.

The season began airing on July 4, 2007 in Japan on TV Tokyo and ended on December 5, 2007. The English adaptation of the Bleach anime is licensed by Viz Media,[2] , and this arc began airing on July 11th, 2009 and ended September 26, 2009 on Adult Swim. Five DVD compilations, each containing four episodes of the season, were released by Aniplex between December 19, 2007 and April 23, 2008 in Japan.[3][4]

The episodes use four pieces of theme music: two opening themes and two closing themes. The opening themes are "Alones" by Aqua Timez, used for the first twelve episodes,[5] and "After Dark" by Asian Kung-Fu Generation, used for the remaining episodes.[6] The ending themes are "Bitter Orange" (, Daidai) by Chatmonchy, utilized for episodes 132 to 143,[5] and J-pop singer Kousuke Atari's "Tane wo maku hibi" (種をまく日々, lit. Seed-scattering days), used for the rest of the episodes.[6] To promote the second Bleach featured film, Bleach: The DiamondDust Rebellion, the opening and closing credits for episode 151 use footage from the film, which was released on December 22, 2007.[7]
