Bleach Rebirth of Souls features a healthy set of 32 characters in its base roster, all having unique moves, playstyles, and animations. However, if you feel those fighters aren’t enough, or if none match your preferred play pattern, there’s a secret character the game doesn’t tell you about — Dangai Ichigo, the Final Getsugatensho.

Aside from looks and curiosity, there are several reasons to go after this character. Dangai Ichigo, unlike the rest of the cast, has no Awakening or Reawakening states, and every Kikon Move he does boosts his attacks for the rest of the game. His kit’s uniqueness could just be what you’re looking for, and all you have to do to unlock him is pursue a mode fighting game players typically neglect.
How To Unlock Dangai Ichigo
The only way to unlock Dangai Ichigo is to complete the game’s Story Mode on any difficulty. There are five chapters in total, and each chapter has different missions that have either one or no fights.
You can figure out if a specific mission contains a fight by checking its icon — the flame icon means it’s a fighting mission, while the book icon means it’s a cutscene mission.
The Story Mode’s difficulty will be set to “Standard” by default. You can change this to “Casual” in the Settings menu to soften the experience.
Fortunately, you don’t have to attempt every fighting mission to complete the chapter. The mission grid follows a left-to-right pattern, and unless the game asks you to get “keys” to unlock a new mission, you can leave some of the prior fights. Cutscene missions, on the other hand, are easily skippable, and you can leave most of them anyway.
If you’re struggling in a boss fight, you can also equip talismans in the pre-mission menu to make it easier. You can obtain talismans based on your performance from completed missions in Chapter Two and beyond, and they can offer a wide array of buffs from increased damage reduction to higher Spiritual Power buildup.
Once you beat the final boss at the end of Chapter Five, you’ll automatically unlock Dangai Ichigo, which you can then use anytime via the Character Select menu. If you skip all the cutscenes in both the fighting and cutscene missions, you will likely be able to complete the Story Mode within six to seven hours.
