I knew about this since late March, and I figured this movie would get a blu-ray release since Kaze (the co-licensor of Bleach along with Viz Europe) releases the first two bleach movies on blu-ray a few weeks ago. Still wonderful announcement, and people in Japan can watch the movie in english since both Japan and the US have the same Blu-ray region.
