The true despair begins here.
Ah, crap.
My wings resonated and popped out.
Who cares?
Use them if you want to.
I don't need mine since it makes me tired.
Neither do I.
Looks like Bambietta is using hers...
Well, duh...
She's already pissed that we ditched her.
Oooh, scary.
Someone like her is the last person who should be allowed to use that.
After all, that girl is dumb.
This battle is really going to end quickly.
Oh, my darling, I don't even know where my heart has gone
And I've forgotten that dream I once had
Becoming an adult = keeping a public face and bluffing?
Tell me, what is reflected in the painted-over mirror?
Your photo is starting to fade
Leaving me, as I change
I'll shout at the top of my voice as it pierces through the night
Burning my chest, formless fear and all
It's okay if I can't laugh like that day
Sadness, scars, everything... I want to take them all with me
You can't kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star
You can't kill my vibe, oh baby
Burning out now, like a shooting star
BLEACH: THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD WAR
You may have transformed,
but everything is still reversed you kno—
What was that about being reversed?
How lame.
If I can't tell up from down or left from right,
then I'll just destroy everything all at once!
Using my "The Explode"!
Welcome back!
Captain!
Whose subordinate are you?
Doggy? Or Smirky Face?
That was reckless, Lieutenant Hinamori!
Her bombs can't be nullified by your Tobiume.
Nor can they even be blocked without a shield or armor!
Can't even be blocked?
You talk as if that bucket on your head can block it.
At the moment of impact,
you sensed something was wrong and moved your head.
Got to hand it to you, Doggy.
Was that animal instinct?
That's right. My bombs can't be guarded against.
I'm not firing Reishi bombs at you.
Anything I fire my Reishi into turns into a bomb.
That's why trying to swat them away at the last minute
won't do you any good.
No way...
Now, let's see how you handle this, Doggy!
Get behind me!
How's that?
I'm guessing only your armor's broken
and you're still alive.
Let's have a look at what's inside that bucket.
Huh?
What happened?
You're not a doggy anymore...
THE JINKA TECHNIQUE
The Jinka Technique...
Is that... what our clan calls this secret technique...?
Yes...
We Werewolf Clan were sent to the animal realm
for the sins we committed during our past lives.
Even that wasn't enough, so we returned to the Soul Society.
By temporarily breaking the chains of sins that binds us,
we can return to our forms before we were condemned to being beasts...
allowing us to gain immense power.
We call that the Jinka Technique.
How do I...do that?
Offer your heart.
With your own hand, tear out your heart.
Offer it to me...
and I will bestow the Jinka Technique upon you.
You can't do it?
That is fine by me.
You have no obligation to throw away your life
for the Soul Reapers.
But I do.
I shamelessly abandoned my clan
because I couldn't stand to live a life of hiding,
but Master Genryusai took me in.
I owed a huge debt for that,
but the Quincies killed him.
I must do whatever it takes to avenge his death!
Lieutenant Hinamori,
take Captain Hirako with you and leave.
Yes, sir!
I'm left with no choice...
Bankai.
Kokujo Tengen Myo-oh...
Dangai Joue!
What is that...?
I'm shocked!
No doggy even in your Bankai?!
Or perhaps there's a doggy hiding under that monster's face?
What the hell is happening?
Kokujo Tengen Myo-oh is an armor Bankai imbued with life.
Dangai Joue is its form stripped of armor,
exposing only its Spiritual Pressure and power.
Your technique cannot defeat it!
If your Spiritual Pressure is exposed,
then so are your weaknesses!
Don't you get it?
Becoming a bomb and exploding is only frightening
when something is alive.
Without life,
there isn't a shred of fear of that.
What...?!
Tengen Myo-oh's life lies within its armor.
Dangai Joue is Tengen Myo-oh stripped of life.
What the hell are you talking about?!
I know how that thing works!
I had your Bankai just a minute ago, remember?!
That Bankai is linked to its possessor!
You see?!
Your Bankai might be okay if it's destroyed,
but not for you, its possessor—
W-What's with that hole?
My body is now an empty shell—
It is nothing more than a vessel to defeat your people.
My clan's secret technique, the Jinka Technique...
allows us to temporarily gain immortal bodies
by offering our hearts.
As long as I am in this human form,
I will never perish.
Are you saying you gave up your life?!
If you lose, you die or get killed!
Aren't you fighting because you don't want that to happen?!
If you throw your life away to fight,
then what is even the point of winning?!
I did not throw it away.
I simply staked it.
Master Genryusai staked his life on this war,
so why would I not do the same?
Before I even stepped into this battle...
I had already left my life behind!
Sajin...
Well done.
You truly are one of us.
When I see you now,
you make me proud, Sajin.
No way...
The bombs aren't detonating...
He's driving them into me faster than they could detonate...
This can't be...
Not yet...
I need you to hold out just a little longer...
The Jinka Technique...
My heart...!
I have to get to their castle...
I have to...
kill Yhwach!
Good.
Very good, Sajin.
Have you realized, Sajin?
That those feelings you have...
are desire for "revenge"?
That you are throwing away your life for revenge,
the very thing you had told your friend that he was doing?
But that is okay.
Revenge is our Clan's true form.
You have finally come back...
to our Clan.
What is...?
I see...
So this...
This is the price I must pay.
That's right, Sajin.
Your life as a human will soon come to an end.
You will become a beast of revenge...
Let your anger reach its very limit.
Curse your lot.
Wallow in your vengeance.
I will sip on the dark resentment and live on...
Sajin, my dear Sajin...
Thank you for doing this for me.
You became a beast that cannot speak... just for me.
Thank you.
So this is the price of selling my soul for revenge...
This is what I get for carrying the name of the Court Guards
and selling my soul for revenge...
The price I paid for not taking the words I said to Tosen
as a warning to myself.
I was...
Captain, let's go.
You did nothing wrong, Captain.
You haven't done anything wrong.
Let's fight, Captain.
Let's go and kill that bastard Yhwach
and avenge Master Genryusai Yamamoto.
THE JINKA TECHNIQUE
Damage repaired up to 45%...
Damn it...
How could I lose to a Soul Reaper?
I can't believe I was the first of the five of us to be defeated...
I can't let this happen...
I just can't let this happen!
Poor little Bambi...
Here, let us help you.
We'd be so lonely without you, Bambi.
– Right, girls? – No...
Please...
Don't do it, Gigi...!
The battle seems to be evening out.
What a modest analysis.
But it seems we agree.
I think so too.
Of course.
If not, it would have been meaningless for me to come here.
It is my job to tip the scales in our favor.
That came out of nowhere!
I almost forgot, you Quincies can steal Reishi, can't you?!
I have been gradually stealing Reishi
from this side of the barrier to weaken it.
It took longer than I anticipated.
What a splendid technique.
You hear that?
I'll take that as a compliment for now.
However...
If it took time for you to weaken the barrier,
it also means we had time to build a new one.
This is quite different in form from your first one.
Does it appear fragile this time
because it's not a single-layer barrier?
Yes.
But the fact that it clearly appears fragile
means that its fragility is a trap.
You leave me no choice.
I will need to use rougher measures.
So it's time...
His Majesty is waiting.
– Excuse me. – Hold on a second.
You're leaving after coming this far?
Be sure to thank her.
When will you be back?
As soon as the order is given.
I see.
I'll be waiting for you with some fine tea next time.
That was an incredible explosion just now.
Two Spiritual Pressures vanished.
One belonged to an enemy,
and the other was...
Captain Komamura...
Damn it!
Mister!
Time for round two! Get up!
Who's that kid?
No, wait, it's a tiny old man.
Don't bother.
That one can't fight anymore.
Mister!
Okay, James!
– What?! – What?!
A Superstar always gets a second round!
I thought you said this was a one-round match!
The bell, James!
Yes, Mister!
Quit fooling around!
I am always serious!
Hey, One! Two!! Three!!
Hey, James!
Yes, sir!
I've now finished off just about every Captain we could verify.
But although I've won,
it's sad that we don't have a crowd watching us, isn't it, James?!
Yes, sir! You're exactly right, Mister!
Huh? What's that light?
A new foe?!
I can't make up my mind if I should go there...
– What do you think, James? – Yes, sir!
They made quite a shiny spectacle as they descended,
so taking them out would put you in the spotlight!
All right, let's go then!
Try to keep up, James!
Yes, sir!
Not so fast...
You think you beat us just because you got a three count?
That's right.
You got knocked out without anything to show for your training.
Such a pathetic lieutenant.
Are you with these boys?
Captain of Squad 9, Kensei Muguruma.
I'm the captain of the sleeveless one there.
A captain! How wonderful!
Ordinarily, you'd make an extremely worthy adversary,
but I'm afraid I'm on my way to investigate
an extremely conspicuous fallen object.
Come now, don't say that.
You have two captains you can take on.
I think we're quite excellent adversaries
if you want to make a name for yourself.
Oh?
In that case, come at me!
Don't worry, we won't take too much of your time.
All at once, the lights went out
Reminding me
with a voice
and I cannot move
Unable to convey even a millimeter
of the lines that I dubbed
All lines that I don't want to forget
Rewound
Repeated
Became a mark
And I notice the dust
I wait and wait
But it won't start
If it's already ended
I give up
But can I
borrow your shoulder?
With that knife
that was left behind
Pierce it through
Still
in the middle of a dream,
We kept searching
For the scar that
the revolving world remembers
With just the strong desire
to keep on living
We'll choose a tomorrow that will not return
In just a little while
The final curtain will fall
Shining upon us
The blurred end roll
What the hell is this...?
The weight you feel is what you are trying to protect.
Everything that you see
are everlasting memories and revelations...
In other words, the power of the king.
Are you a vessel capable of withstanding
the power that fills it,
or are you a bowl that shatters?
So, what do you want me to do next?
"The heavens resound with deceit."
"The captive heart dances to the melody."
