“So what’s with tall, strange, and striped?” Urahara Kisuke asked in a low voice, flicking his fan briefly towards the stranger’s back as the Captain walked away from them.

Sasaki Uryuu wanted desperately to find whatever kami had cursed him as a child, and preferably skewer it on his bankai. The sheer absurdity of his life was becoming droll; it wasn’t enough that he was sent to a time before his father was even a dream, but now he had to be sent into …

As the last lingering traces of Yhwach faded away, Kaito breathed a sigh of relief and let his stance relax. They had done it. They had won.

“Are you sure we shouldn’t go out right now?” Ichigo asked as he and Uryuu followed Rerugen back into his home at last. His muscles burned from all running and wrestling, but he’d fought in worst shape before. And he had his pack with him, plus Rerugen. “We don’t know how long it will take …

Shiro swallows back his shout of victory as Getsuga launches herself into the air. Not only did Getsuga allow Ishida Uryuu close, but she allowed him on her back!
