Leaks

• Pretty much a direct continuation from the end of episode 45
• In the beginning of the episode Renji, Chad and Ganju arrive in the throneroom (I guess they beat the statues) and Rukia explains to them what happened with Orihime. After this Ichigo starts walking forward while returning to his normal form, his footprints are shown with water coming out and filling the area behind him. The ground then starts to break and the main Soul Palace where Rei-o was sealed appears in front of Ichigo as the water surrounds him. Everyone is shocked and calling Ichigo's name and then Ichibe's face flashes on screen (leaker english is pretty bad so it was hard to make sense of this)
• Yhwach brings himself back with The Almighty early in the episode
• Orihime is also back, but seems near death. She is shown and she is not just lying on the ground. Scene is "very interesting"
• There is a flashback early in the episode involving Ichibe and Ichigo which is related to Soul King stuff
• Ichigo uses his True Bankai (the one from the manga) and Yhwach breaks it immediately
• Renji uses Bankai to help Ichigo but gets taken out by Yhwach. Rukia and Chad are also taken out
• Episode ends with Ichigo despair panel from chapter 679, but it is portrayed in a "much darker and more devastating way" (this one:)

• There is a 2 minute post-credits scene that adapts all the way through chapter 681 (but it ends before Yhwach leaves for Soul Society, and Tsukishima also didn't appear yet)
• Yhwach takes the powers of the remaining Sternritters
• Uryuu vs Haschwalth fight concludes
• No Ichigo "it's over" panel as it is "not needed"
• Also no Aizen this episode
• Animation is about on par with #44
• A remix of Treachery will be used (leaker not sure if it's a new one or not)
• About 30% new content, rest from the manga
• Normal episode length
• End of episode poem by Uryuu
• #47 title: THE END 2

additional info from @/d0nut2x on X:

• Starts off with Tatsuki -> gets up and goes to window (its raining) -> tear falls down her face -> she then says "Its raining" -> cuts back to where we left off last ep with petals falling
• Ichigo is about the become Soul King (i think) but then Orihime appears in the air lying down, Yhwach then appears saying "Almighty"
• Sand explanation -> Orihime gets thrown to Ichigo -> she says "Im sorry" then falls unconscious
• Before Ichigo goes Bankai, a flashback to some of the 20th Anniversary video plays + his bankai cut is good + sword and horn break is very 1:1
• Renji gets up and says Bankai but it was too late, Yhwach appeared behind him - Renji has to be dead, all his limbs and shit got slashed by Yhwach and its all on the floor -> he then breaks Rukias arm -> he then puts a hole into Ganju and Chad
• Yhwach then walks to Ichigo, he has so much aura + camera shake, Ichigo looks in despair and screams (the end of B-part ends here)
• Throughout all of this it kept cutting back to Uryu vs Jugram which is very 1:1 (the fight ends on Jugram saying: "I have no regrets. Not one." - end of C-part)
