You can safely continue from where the anime ends

Studio Pierrot's TYBW adaptation is phenomenal, adding anime-original content that expands on the rushed manga ending. The anime is arguably superior in this arc with extended fights and new scenes.

Ichigo and the Soul Reapers face Yhwach in the final battle for the fate of all worlds. The anime is expanding and improving upon the manga's ending with additional content. Cour 4 will conclude the series with what many fans hope will be an enhanced finale.

Frequently Asked Questions

Part 3 (The Conflict) ends around Chapter 652. Start from Chapter 653 to continue, though the final Part 4 (The Calamity) will adapt the rest starting July 2026 with additional original content.
