List of episodes

The eleventh season of the Bleach anime series, released on DVD as The Past Arc (過去篇, Kako Hen),[1] is directed by Noriyuki Abe, and produced by TV Tokyo, Dentsu and Studio Pierrot.[2] The seven episode season is based on Tite Kubo's Bleach manga series. The episodes' plot follows the flashback arc of the series' storyline which retells the Vizard's past.

The season aired from February to March 2009 on TV Tokyo in Japan.[3] The English adaptation of the anime is licensed by Viz Media,[4] which was announced that this season will start airing on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim on May 29, 2011 and ended on July 10, 2011.[5] Aniplex collected the season in a series of two DVD compilations. The first DVD volume was released on November 26, 2009 and the second on December 16, 2009.[1]

The episodes use two pieces of theme music: one opening theme and one closing theme. The opening theme is "Velonica" by Aqua Timez[6] while the ending theme is "Sky Chord (Otona ni Naru Kimi e)" (Sky chord 〜大人になる君へ〜, Sukai Kōdo ~Otona ni Naru Kimi e~, lit. "Sky Chord (To the Adult You)") by Shion Tsuji.[6][7]
