Bleach
Keeping with the whole powerful swordsmen/swordswomen theme, Bleach is the next logical choice. The varied abilities spread across a large amount of characters makes this another great entry. From Shinigami to Quincy, to Arrancar, there would be plenty of options for the devs to choose from.
The manga began its publication in 2001, so a new Bleach fighting game from Arc System Works in 2021 would have good timing. There’s even a 20th anniversary Bleach announcement that’ll be streamed on the Shonen Jump YouTube channel on March 21.
Bleach has far less games than you would think, considering how big it was in the early 2000s. In fact, Jump Force could be the last we see of Bleach characters in a game. The anime didn’t even get to reach the finale of the manga before being dropped, so Bleach fans could really use a win soon.
