Bleach (Dubbed)

Yumichika is trapped inside Chuhlhourne's briar of darkness. Learning he cannot be seen from the outside world, Yumichika unveils his Zanpakuto's true power. Meanwhile, Izuru Kira is fighting Abirama Redder over at the south pillar. Abirama goes into his sword release state "Aguila" to attack Izuru from the sky. Izuru makes use of his surroundings and attacks Abirama with Kido. Annoyed by Izuru's cheap tactics, Abirama goes in for the kill.

Shuhei Hisagi battles Findorr Calius, who has increased his strength level equal to that of a squad lieutenant by shattering his own mask. Shuhei, overwhelmed by the enemy's power, is forced to stay on the defensive. Findorr ridicules Shuhei's strength as not being that of a lieutenant and proceeds to finish him off using the sword release "Pinza Aguda."

Shuhei, Izuru, Yumichika, and Ikkaku fight to guard the four pillars used to switch the real Karakura Town with a fake one. Despite their efforts, one of the pillars is destroyed by the Fracción Poww, and the real Karakura Town begins to slowly return to the World of the Living. If the town returns, the Soul Reapers will be unable to fight. To prevent that from happening, Captain Sajin Komamura and Lieutenant Tetsuzaemon Iba of Squad Seven arrive at the scene to face Poww.

The Soul Reapers succeed in defending the four pillars from being destroyed, preventing the real Karakura Town from returning to the World of the Living. Feeling responsible for this turn of events, Fracciónes Ggio and Nirgge promise Barragan that they will take care of the Soul Reapers. Soi Fon and Marechiyo Omaeda take up their swords to face the two Fracciónes. The standoff is finally broken when Head Captain Genryusai Yamamoto signals them to begin battle.

Soi Fon and Marechiyo Omaeda are to take on Ggio and Nirgge. Soi Fon confidently goes after Ggio, but Ggio puts up a good fight. Ggio restrains Soi Fon with one of his attacks and releases his Tigre Estoque. Meanwhile, Omaeda is struggling in his fight against Nirgge. The two exchange insults and attacks, but when Nirgge grows impatient, he releases his Mamut and comes after Omaeda with his giant trunk.

Ggio, who released his Hollow power, is overpowering Soi Fon. Marechiyo Omaeda realizes that Soi Fon is in a dire situation and comes to help her. But Soi Fon says that it would be a disgrace for her to accept his help, and she continues to fight Ggio alone. But Omaeda, who is watching her fight from the sidelines, becomes a little uneasy when Ggio proves to be a tougher opponent than expected. His concern for Soi Fon distracts him from his own fight against Nirgge, and Nirgge takes the opportunity to fire his Cero. Around the same time, Ggio pins Soi Fon against a wall and prepares to finish her off.

Rangiku battles Halibel's three Fracciónes, Apache, Mila Rose, and Sun-Sun. She attacks with his Haineko, but even that is not very effective against the three opponents. While fighting Halibel, Hitsugaya senses Rangiku's Spiritual Pressure, but he is forced to concentrate on his own battle and cannot come to Rangiku's aid. Apache quickly grows impatient with Rangiku, who remains on the defensive, and she launches an attack while saying that Rangiku wouldn't have had a chance even if they were fighting one-on-one. But just then, an unexpected person rescues Rangiku using a familiar attack...

Apache, Mila Rose, and Sun-Sun release their Resurrección forms. In addition, they combine their left arms to create a mysterious monster called Ayon. Rangiku and the others are shaken by the sight of the monster and the strength of its Spiritual Pressure. Rangiku collapses in the face of Ayon's overwhelming power, and even Hinamori, who tries to rescue Rangiku from further danger, is defeated. Just then, Kira and Hisagi, who have wrapped up their battle at the pillars, sense that their comrades are in a predicament and rush over. Can the two of them take on Ayon?

The Soul Reapers are defeated one after another at the hands of Ayon. Seeing this, Head Captain Genryusai Yamamoto decides to get involved. He hits Ayon with one of his attacks, but Ayon doesn't even seem to be hurt by it. Ayon then fires back at Genryusai stronger than ever. Meanwhile, the battles between the captains and Espadas continue. Hitsugaya is fighting Halibel, Kyoraku is fighting Stark, and Soi Fon and Omaeda are fighting Barragan. And over in Hueco Mundo, Ulquiorra and Ichigo face off.

Mizuiro starts at Karakura First High School without any great expectations or ambitions. On the day that the students are assigned to classes, Keigo, who has been hanging around Mizuiro since they met, is shivering with fear. He has just found out that he is in the same class as the notorious ruffians Yasutora Sado and Ichigo Kurosaki. Meanwhile, in the Soul Society, the new lieutenant has been selected. Mizuiro, Ichigo, and the Soul Society all seem to be starting a new chapter in their lives.

Rangiku and the members of the Women's Soul Reaper Association take a relaxing trip to a beach in the World of the Living. All the women are excited about wearing bathing suits that they have picked out for the occasion. Jushiro Ukitake, Ikkaku, and Renji make their way to the beach as well. When a bewildered Ichigo goes into the beach shack, he runs into Chad, Uryu, and Orihime, who are working there. Toshiro Hitsugaya uses his Hyorinmaru to make the ice required for the shaved ice they sell. When everyone reassembles on the beach, Jushiro proposes a sand art contest. They all put some money in a betting pool and start making various things out of sand.

Ikkaku and Yumichika are sent after a Hollow that ran away to the World of the Living. They have no prearranged lodging, so they decide to stay at the Asano family house. Keigo seems slightly annoyed, but his older sister, Mizuho, takes a liking to Ikkaku's bald head. She starts trying to seduce Ikkaku by showing her feminine side. But she follows him around to the point of annoying Ikkaku. This prompts Yumichika to half-jokingly put a wig on Ikkaku, but this ends up provoking some major problems!
