BLEACH, one of the most iconic anime series, has released a special Christmas 2024 illustration, and it’s a festive twist on the notorious Sosuke Aizen. In the new artwork, Aizen is shown sitting in his infamous Sealstone Chair, but this time, he’s donning a Santa outfit. The Sealstone Chair is a key element in the BLEACH universe, designed to suppress Aizen’s enormous spiritual power and restrict his movements—making this holiday-themed version a humorous juxtaposition to his usual menacing presence.
Aizen’s History and His Return in BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War
After Aizen’s defeat during the events of the Soul Society Arc, he was sentenced to a staggering 20,000 years of imprisonment in the Muken, the deepest and most secure level of the Soul Society’s prison. However, in a surprising turn of events, Shunsui Kyoraku, the new Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13, chose to release Aizen during the climax of their fight against Yhwach and his forces. This moment marked Aizen’s dramatic return to the BLEACH storyline, where he once again proved that even under the constraints of his Sealstone Chair, he is still a formidable threat.
We saw just how powerful Aizen remained despite his imprisonment in BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War Episode 31, where his appearance was a reminder of the anime’s ongoing action and intensity. Now, this festive Christmas illustration humorously reimagines Aizen in a more lighthearted manner, offering fans a new way to enjoy his character in a holiday theme.
