There have been previous reveals such as Ryuk and Light Yagami from Death Note who have been teased in the trailer of Jump Force but have been confirmed to be not playable by Producer Koji Nakajima.<\/p>\n<p>In an interview with Bahamut. (translated via <a rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/www.siliconera.com\/2018\/06\/18\/jump-forces-story-concerns-fate-anime-real-worlds\/\" target=\"_blank\">Siliconera\u00a0<\/a>), Nakajima said:<\/p>\n<pre>\"<em>Ryuk from Death Note isn't a playable character because if he writes names into the death note, people die, right? He'd be too strong.\" <\/em><\/pre>\n<p>He added that they&#8217;d play an important role in the games story. Could Aizen and Rukia also have a role in the games story rather than being playable? They don&#8217;t seem to run into the same problem as Ryuk and Light. If characters as powerful as Goku can be in the game, then surely Aizen and Rukia aren&#8217;t off the table to be playable. And it is not uncommon to see more than one playable character from one property. We have Frieza and Goku from the Dragonball series, Luffy and Zorro from One piece, Naruto and Sasuke from Naruto and Ichigo was confirmed earlier from Bleach. There certainly seems to be space for more playable characters from the Bleach roster.<\/p>\n<h2>Keen Fans Sure to be Excited Over New Looks of these Characters in Jump Force<\/h2>\n<p>Fans who have been craving for more Bleach ever since the anime ended before the final arc being animated will be especially excited over the looks of Ichigo, Rukia and Aizen in Jump Force. They are in their outfits from the final arc of the series the &#8220;Thousand Year Bloodwar Arc&#8221;. This arc was never animated and is likely to get long time fans of the series very excited.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-39680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen.jpg\" alt=\"Jump Force\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-1140x641.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" class=\"size-full wp-image-39680\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen.jpg\" alt=\"Jump Force\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-750x422.jpg 750w, https:\/\/thenerdmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/whyzen-1140x641.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Here is yet another tweet from Bandai Namco in which they show Ichigo fighting zorro from One Piece.
