Bleach has had one hell of a year. The highly anticipated return of the anime that ended with the Fullbring arc in March 2012 has caused a tremendous frenzy. A major streaming service Crunchyroll removed all the seasons from its platform prior to the release of the new season slated to occur this October on Disney Plus. This was met with backlash from some fans, just like Netflix gearing up to drop Naruto prompted criticism.
Now it seems that Coca-Cola will jump on board and share a brew with our beloved Substitute Shinigami. Coca-Cola is one of the biggest names in the field of soft drinks and constantly competes with Pepsi for the top spot. Around 2 billion Coke beverages are consumed regularly by humans across the planet.
Take a look at this teaser released at the end of September this year, just two days ago:
In this, you can get a glimpse of the can that will be unveiled shortly.
A new Coco Cola vending machine will soon be unleashed, propelling the Japanese fans to cloud nine. However, it hasn’t been confirmed whether this collaboration will affect those overseas.
American fans may be unable to grab the special merch unless they take a trip down to Tokyo. The Coca-Cola “Zero-Sugar” Soul Blast edition will be available at the Atmos pop-up store in Shinjuku, one of the most crowded areas in urban Japan. Collectible items are also included in the venture.

It is a well-known fact that Latin Americans, especially Mexicans, Colombians, and Brazilians, have a fondness for coke (the beverage, get the dirty thought outta your head!). If the organization has a vending machine in these nations, which are also home to thousands of anime enthusiasts, their sales may improve tremendously.
