The official Twitter for the live-action film of Tite Kubo's Bleach manga revealed on Monday that the original Bleach manga has 120 million copies in print worldwide.
Kubo launched Bleach in Weekly Shonen Jump in 2001, and ended it in August 2016. Viz Media published the manga in North America digitally in English as Shueisha published new chapters in Japan. Viz Media is also publishing the manga in print and will publish the 72nd volume (out of 74) on March 6.
The live-action film will open in Japan on July 20, and will center on the "Substitute Shinigami Arc," the manga's first arc which ran from its first to eighth volume.
