Hey man just here to say you don't need an English Patch to enjoy it if you can't read Japanese. I never put one on mine (I play on original hardware) and I finished most of the story.
Fun fact, soul carnival 2 had Ichigo turning into "Vasto Lorde" animated before the anime, that scene where Orihime is terrified after looking at Ichigo appeared on a PSP game first . Also in heat the soul 6 and 7 there are team ultimates, a lot actually. And also there is a Battle royale mode on heat the soul 7 with 4 players vs all, I'm surprised that the PSP could handle that (it had lower graphics on that mode but still) and also 2 giant but slow characters, ira yammi and ayon. Cool review, I really enjoy your videos and had the same experience as you with those games as a child, it brings some cool memories
Just a tip for Heat The Soul fans, If you're too broke to get all of them, just get the 6th and 7th game. The 6th covers almost every part of the story since Renji and Byakuya's arrival in the Human world up until Ichigo vs Ulquiorra base mode (and a bonus Toshiro vs Harribel and one character from each of the 1st 3 movies). The 7th continues from there until Ichigo's arrival in Fake Karakura Town
I can't remember exactly which volume but I remember one of Kubo's comments said that he played the first Heat The Soul and was impressed by it. Just a cool fact that the creator of the series actually played a game based on his own series and got to experience it with others who played the game.
Damn, that is nostalgic, Heat the Soul 2 was my first PSP game and you're right, it's sad how many PSP games never got localized outside Japan, the Kenshin fighter was pretty solid as well. Really did have some great exclusives.
This was amazing to see, I have to try it out Bleach heat the soul. Same with Bleach soul Carnival 2, it's one of them sit back and relax type of game. Amazing video as always DBZimran.
Nice. With the anime's return and the new hell arc resurrecting the series as a whole, there definitely needs to be a major production Bleach game set in both the TYBW and the postwar world. Sure we've got the mobile title but that can only go so far. Time for something fresh.
Okay, hear me out: we get Bleach Heat the Soul 8, but instead of covering the Lost Agent arc, it takes every single character, location and story mode from Heat the Soul 1-7 and combines them into a single game, with brand new character models and an updated gameplay formulae for home consoles and PC. Lost Agent Arc DLC coming soon. Then, once the anime finishes adapating the TYBW arc, we get Heat the Soul 9, focused exclusively on that arc.
I loved the Heat the Souls Series! still my favourite Bleach games to this day =D Also, as a side note: There is a big drop in texture Quality from HTS4 to 7, and in a BAD way! The textures in HTS4 look pretty sharp for a PSP Game, you can see every detail on the hilt and guarpiece of Ichigos Bankai sword, the sandals are well defines, the Shading on the Shiakusho etc. HOWEVER, in HTS7, everything looks WAY blurrier, the Cross on Ichigos Handguard on his Bankai Sword, the Sandals and lots of other detail look like they have had a blur filger put over them. Maybe a change they did in order to preserve Space for adding so many characters? Also look at Ichigos Substitute Shinigami Form in HTS1 and HTS7, you can see the blurrier textures even more with that, thanks to belt of his scabbard and the guard of his sword. Still, great Games, I think I am going to play them again soon =D BTW: You can buy a UMD of the game and play it even without a Custom Firmware PSP! The PSP had no region lock so you can play and game from any region on it =D
I got heat the soul 3 when I was about 10 years old and when bleach was at its height having just finished the soul society arc. I was blown away at how many characters there were and I was happy you could still navigate it in Japanese, for the psp it was an impressive game
DBZimran My God this video is a knockout, I am 43 years old and totally loving this video, Truly this is what im talking bout my guy. I downloaded this gem of a video to mp4. 20th april 2023 for us muslims one day before last day of ramadan. I am hoping to buy the whole Heat the soul series. A few years back I brought this arcade stick that comes wit tons of obscure fighting games. I think Bleach: Heat the soul 4 was on the emulation arcade stick. Loved your passion.
I’ve only collected Heat the Soul 4, 6 and 7 and I remember being so excited when I got my hands on HTS 4! 😭❤️❤️❤️ I wish I could have collected the other games.
Soul carnival 2 is the first game I've played when I was 5 and yet I still replay the series over and over such that I lost track. The way I see it , SC2 covers so much of the preliminary arcs such that they were lazy to keep on going ( as seen when they made the fake kakakura battles but then slapped on the SC1 ending). I do wish it was remodelled such that it stretched to the Monster Aizen fight.
3-7 Consist of missions for example like that mission In HTS4 the reason you couldn’t beat grimmjow is cause only Ichigo while in hollowfication can deliver damage just like he did in the anime
I remember being in elementary and hella wanting to play these.. then when I was like a senior in high school and had my first job the first thing I bought was a psp and heat the soul 5.. hyped moment ever
The PSP was THE best system for Japanese Import games and Anime games at the time I have a Kamen Rider game on PSP called Kamen Rider: Super Climax Heroes and it's been one of my favourite handheld games ever
my favorite part of heat the soul 7 were the tag team special attacks you could pull off, it really stayed true to the source material while also giving us some combo attacks from characters we never got to see fight alongside each other !
It's a shame they've never thought to port Heat The Soul on PS2 or PS3 at the time. Such a great fighting game locked on a portable system, with multiplayer modes being a hassle to set up.
Ukitake would cough blood and lose HP every time he does a strong a attack, leaving him vulnerable for a short while, I think they introduced that in HTS4, he was fine in 3. HTS2 had the amazing op "Chance" by Uverworld, that was my first game.
I REMEMBER A FRIEND OF MINE DOWNLOADED HEAT THE SOUL 7 ONTO MY PSP BACK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL FUUUUUCK!!! this game was so good and honestly brings back a lot of nostalgia for me 😅
Sony plays a big role in Bleach. it owns aniplex which is a distributor for the Bleach Anime. All the music labels are from Sony. Most of the games are from Sony as you know. So it’s no surprise Tite Kubo was like I’m going to put a PSP in my series. lol
You've missed the Vasto Lorde Ichigo and Segunda Etapa Ulquiorra combo in Heat the Soul7. Was one of the epic combo finishes ever. Feeling nostalgic about this games. What is your emulator for this?
I would only play through all seven to play through the story .The one that’s the most worthwhile to play through is number seven because it has the most characters and the most modes.
Aw man I have All of nostalgia play the hit the soul & soul carnival games on my PSP. I remember there's one stage in Hit the Soul 3 that I played where Ichigo fought Renji I have alot of trouble defeating him because I can't seem to defeat him even when his health drops to zero, then I realized I need to preform a button combinations that makes the characters Reiatsu Aura turn red, then I was able to beat Renji. Now that I think about it all just comes down of me understanding Japanese 😅.
I played both heat the soul and soul carvinal i enjoy both for different reasons please make a video about the bleach games on nintenfo ds? I am curious what you think of them
ive not played it but bleach soul carnaval 2 kinda looks like bleach brave souls if it had the camera at a diff angle ? gonna look for ur ps3 video cus i wanna see what u say about bleach ressurection as i have that one. but im gonna get bleach heat the soul 7 for my psp
I had a lot of fun with the heat to sole franchise I bought all seven games I don’t have them any more because I don’t have a PSP anymore but I can download the games if I wanted to put them on my Vita
I started with Heat the Soul 5, Nelliel being OP due to her speed but was the first in the title if I recall that added tag team functions and certain teams of characters having unique specials thanks to that which when I played 5 I had Toshiro and Kusaka as my picks since I wanted the tag team Hyorinmaru attack
I don't think you really need an english patch for that game, i managed to unlock everything quite easily so i suggest you to give it a try at least once
I still have my copies of Heat the Soul 3-7, and can't wait to play them again! just need a new charger... I still remember having these crazy fights with characters who would never normally fight face off against really powerful opponents, like using Nemu to take down the likes of Aizen, Stark and Ayon. I really miss those days.
I remember having multiple Heat The Soul in my psp… I miss these games :”D (still hate that mission with Nnoitra where you need to survive tough, I hate him :”D)
I did have the same experience as you with Bleach Soul Carnival.. I did expect something great and got something "meh" - needless to say I never played it more than once. Bleach Heat The Soul however I remember really liking.
i thought bleach had at least one gameboy advance game. If so, its crazy that a psp game came out before a gba game. Im not enough of an expert at fighting games or the game itself to comment for certain on how solid the mechanics are but to me its pretty decent standard 3d fighter stuff like tekken. Which means the mechanics are more solid than 90% of anime games. But partially just due to being a no nonsense fighting game and being on a portable console the game doesn't hit you with that seratonin injection like others do and the graphics are pretty poor in the grand scheme of things. Also the controls don't feel great to use like they would be on a home console. Generally fighting games aren't a popular genre. One of the least popular in fact because they don't feel good and you can't do much without practice which is kind of a chore. So while the combat might be better than arena fighters like jump force and the naruto storm series in the sense that you can actually do proper combos and have to think about spacing and stuff rather than just press circle over and over to get combos i'd still probably rather play the storm games cause they look and feel nicer to play. And games nowadays need those gimmicks and bells and whistles and extra content. These games feel a bit plain. Only dragonball fighterz got away with being a proper fighter and even then it had tons of features to cater to the casual audience like autocombos so they didn't get bored of it being too hard and stop playing. Also you can emulate these games nowadays so they're super easy to play.
The video made me hahaha just wanted to flex on my sick emojis
Legendary! Hahaha
Awesome, pal!
lool
😎😱😲😰😭
how?!
I really wanted these games back in high school especially heat the soul 6 and 7. I still do at 26 year old
If you have a phone or pc you can emulate the games
@@ubertarik huh you're right
@@xblade149 and with my English mod you can enjoy 7 in an entirely different way than we did 12 years ago
Hey man just here to say you don't need an English Patch to enjoy it if you can't read Japanese. I never put one on mine (I play on original hardware) and I finished most of the story.
Get a PSP/PS Vita and mod it.
Fun fact, soul carnival 2 had Ichigo turning into "Vasto Lorde" animated before the anime, that scene where Orihime is terrified after looking at Ichigo appeared on a PSP game first .

god with things like that HOW TF did it not get localized??

Or just emulate them on your comupter if you have a good gaming PC.
@@112deno it's a psp game so you dont really need a good gaming pc
thank you my good sir
I can't remember exactly which volume but I remember one of Kubo's comments said that he played the first Heat The Soul and was impressed by it. Just a cool fact that the creator of the series actually played a game based on his own series and got to experience it with others who played the game.
even today, he's playing Brave Souls and is ecstatic of getting his own created waifus.
Am I the only who notice he made this 2 years before 2024
That's how time works, dude
Same I was confused
He prolly changed it later
Damn, that is nostalgic, Heat the Soul 2 was my first PSP game and you're right, it's sad how many PSP games never got localized outside Japan, the Kenshin fighter was pretty solid as well. Really did have some great exclusives.
Or the Raoh Gaiden
The bleach game I grew up with myself was bleach the blade of fate on the ds
Watching these really brings up so much nostalgia
This was amazing to see, I have to try it out Bleach heat the soul. Same with Bleach soul Carnival 2, it's one of them sit back and relax type of game. Amazing video as always DBZimran.
Yess!! So happy to see more!
Nice. With the anime's return and the new hell arc resurrecting the series as a whole, there definitely needs to be a major production Bleach game set in both the TYBW and the postwar world. Sure we've got the mobile title but that can only go so far. Time for something fresh.
You're quickly becoming my favorite ani-tuber
Men, I remember soul carnival 2 so much, it was really fun for me and boss fights were really 🆒. Love your videos bro.
Okay, hear me out: we get Bleach Heat the Soul 8, but instead of covering the Lost Agent arc, it takes every single character, location and story mode from Heat the Soul 1-7 and combines them into a single game, with brand new character models and an updated gameplay formulae for home consoles and PC.
Lost Agent Arc DLC coming soon.
Then, once the anime finishes adapating the TYBW arc, we get Heat the Soul 9, focused exclusively on that arc.
Hate to break it to you, but heat the soul 8 was soul resureccion. The JP name was soul ignition
It got so heated it ignited lol
Genuinely love your content bro. This is where I come whenever I’ve got a pressing Bleach question 💯 Keep it up
Loving this series you started. I didn't know there were some good bleach games. Maybe I gotta get an emulator to play some of the older games
So much nostalgia and greatness I too somehow figured out how to play heat the soul 7 on my psp and helped my cousin do it as well
I loved the Heat the Souls Series! still my favourite Bleach games to this day =D
Also, as a side note: There is a big drop in texture Quality from HTS4 to 7, and in a BAD way! The textures in HTS4 look pretty sharp for a PSP Game, you can see every detail on the hilt and guarpiece of Ichigos Bankai sword, the sandals are well defines, the Shading on the Shiakusho etc.
HOWEVER, in HTS7, everything looks WAY blurrier, the Cross on Ichigos Handguard on his Bankai Sword, the Sandals and lots of other detail look like they have had a blur filger put over them. Maybe a change they did in order to preserve Space for adding so many characters?
Also look at Ichigos Substitute Shinigami Form in HTS1 and HTS7, you can see the blurrier textures even more with that, thanks to belt of his scabbard and the guard of his sword.
Still, great Games, I think I am going to play them again soon =D
BTW: You can buy a UMD of the game and play it even without a Custom Firmware PSP! The PSP had no region lock so you can play and game from any region on it =D
I got heat the soul 3 when I was about 10 years old and when bleach was at its height having just finished the soul society arc. I was blown away at how many characters there were and I was happy you could still navigate it in Japanese, for the psp it was an impressive game
Heat The Soul series just HAD to stop right before Dangai and Hogyoku Aizen.
Man, I was quite the psp pirate back in the day… such nostalgia
Heat the soul 6 got a crazy opening + crazy ost , for me its the best one even the menu's nd stuff
DBZimran My God this video is a knockout, I am 43 years old and totally loving this video, Truly this is what im talking bout my guy.

I agree if heat the soul ever came to console it would be cool
Being stuck on handheld is a problem with a lot of bleach games
this really makes me think they are gonna make a bleach game after the anime drop and based off the success of other past bleach games
heat the soul 7 has a fan english patch and DLC adding one of the villains from the hellverse
This is great content bro keep it up
3-7 Consist of missions for example like that mission In HTS4 the reason you couldn’t beat grimmjow is cause only Ichigo while in hollowfication can deliver damage just like he did in the anime
Around @13:00 you mention movie characters, the third is actually Kusaka from Diamondust Rebellion, not Shuren
i would DIE if anyone can remake or port the Heat the Soul series, they were great.
I remember being in elementary and hella wanting to play these.. then when I was like a senior in high school and had my first job the first thing I bought was a psp and heat the soul 5.. hyped moment ever
I never played a bleach game. I want to play one now
Out of the two psp series’s soul carnival was my favorite
On that note I don’t know Japanese either
My favorite bleach game was heat the soul 6 and soul carnival 2
The PSP was THE best system for Japanese Import games and Anime games at the time
I have a Kamen Rider game on PSP called Kamen Rider: Super Climax Heroes and it's been one of my favourite handheld games ever
my favorite part of heat the soul 7 were the tag team special attacks you could pull off, it really stayed true to the source material while also giving us some combo attacks from characters we never got to see fight alongside each other !
And now Rebirth of Souls. This video makes me think of some of things that games doing and how it’s seeming similar in ways.
It's a shame they've never thought to port Heat The Soul on PS2 or PS3 at the time. Such a great fighting game locked on a portable system, with multiplayer modes being a hassle to set up.

Awesome job, channel is on fire🔥 Keep the good job, man!
This would be a good collection on modern platforms with resolution bump and localise in English
I REMEMBER A FRIEND OF MINE DOWNLOADED HEAT THE SOUL 7 ONTO MY PSP BACK IN MIDDLE SCHOOL FUUUUUCK!!! this game was so good and honestly brings back a lot of nostalgia for me 😅
i can't wait until bleach the 3rd phantom gets covered, my favourite bleach game and one of my all time favourite games
Sony plays a big role in Bleach. it owns aniplex which is a distributor for the Bleach Anime. All the music labels are from Sony. Most of the games are from Sony as you know. So it’s no surprise Tite Kubo was like I’m going to put a PSP in my series. lol
You should play the D games next.
3rd phantom was one of the best Bleach games IMO.
Have you done a video on the DS game Dark Souls? if not I'd totally recommend doing so
You've missed the Vasto Lorde Ichigo and Segunda Etapa Ulquiorra combo in Heat the Soul7. Was one of the epic combo finishes ever.
Feeling nostalgic about this games. What is your emulator for this?
Most likely ppsspp

I miss these games! I still have my modded psp to play these
Oh the nostalgia!!

Damm! Title has 2024, yet posts are 2 years old😂😂😂. Got me!
Last game gives big bleach brave souls vibes D:
I really love how Yukio's fullbring was a PSP
When fighting Arrancars it usually needs you to wait for the time to run out, perform a special move, and for Ichigo's case its always the hollow mask
LETS GOOOO I LOVE THESE GAMES
I really wanna play heat the soul 7 but my computer can't manage emulations and my modded vita can't install the English patch for this game
I don't think you really need an english patch for that game, i managed to unlock everything quite easily so i suggest you to give it a try at least once
I still have my copies of Heat the Soul 3-7, and can't wait to play them again! just need a new charger...

Ulquiora is stronger than Stark though

I did have the same experience as you with Bleach Soul Carnival.. I did expect something great and got something "meh" - needless to say I never played it more than once.
Bleach Heat The Soul however I remember really liking.
Wonder why Rangiku didn't appear in Carnival 2 . Also how come Unohana and Isane don't get a slot for Heat the Soul series?
i might be wrong but i think heat the soul 6 came with a demo for soul carnival 2.
Look at the little time you gave soul carnival and it was the best bleach game overall. It hits the spot if you're a bleach fan.
I tried to download the games but I didn’t have a PSP. I loved Shattered Blade and Soul Resurrection
Were there any Bleach games that were like Final Fantasy Dissidia in terms of gameplay?
I have two of these games I wish they would have carried over to the ps vita and consoles.
I bought a psp and heat the souls 7 also is there a way to plug it up to your tv and play it?
yeahhhhhh heat the soul
Even in the NDS bleach games Chad is a pesky opponent
Is it possible to mod this game bleach heat the soul 7 on original psp handheld to English? Or is that just ppsspp on android or PC?
Simple answer: Yes
H the S 7 is Great.
I bought all the PSP Bleach games from EBay and enjoying the gameplay. The only issue is the Japanese language barrier.
dam they made 7 games of something i never heard of lol
I wishe they would make a bleach game like the storm series
Is there any English patches??
Yes by the time heat the soul seven was coming out the The PSP was being phased out for the PlayStation Vita.
Wish there was a heat the soul 8
i thought bleach had at least one gameboy advance game. If so, its crazy that a psp game came out before a gba game.

We need modern bleach games.
“They probably didn’t have much material”
The manga?
I always have heat the soulss 7 both on my laptop and phone, all the time. My nemesis is noitra... his poise is bs.
Chads difficult… takes no damage lol
i wish we can get a new bleach game Similar to Naruto storm franchise and the new kimetsu no yaiba game
This are games that should be remaster but company are so lazy to do it
Why can't they just brought bring Heat The Soul 7 on console now 😭
The best Bleach PSP games are Heat the Soul 4 and 7, i've played them so many times and i even own the fourth one
One of the better characters was Soifong she had her two strike special
Theres a good Bleach game on mobile called "Bleach Mobile 3D" its a really good game it follows the story of Bleach
Bleach brave souls too
Yes
The only games I played on the PSP were ben 10 and spongebob
Oh god no you have BRZ on 😢
Very early
