On my own terms...

...I wanna change.

There are a lot of familiar faces here.

Looks like we made it in time for the main event.

Aizen.

Who...are they?

They're...

Shinji...Hirako!

Shinji Hirako.

Rojuro Ohtoribashi.

Rabu Aikawa.

Hachigen Ushoda.

Lisa Yadomaru.

I am assigning you five as the investigation unit

in charge of this vanishing soul case!

Years Ago

Aizen...

Maybe you should be apologizing to your friends.

Because I chose you,

your friends ended up down there on the ground with you.

Captain Hirako.

Aizen...

Damn it! You're doing this to me, too?

Aizen!

What is this?!

Good-bye.

You were all wonderful test subjects.

Damn it!

Well...

What an...

interesting guest.

K-Kisuke...

Why'd you...come...you idiot?

Lieutenant...Aizen...

Yes?

What are you doing here?

Nothing.

As you can see,

I just happened to find the members of the investigation unit

in charge of the vanishing soul case who were injured in battle,

and I was attempting to rescue them.

Injured in battle?

You call these "injuries"?

You mustn't lie.

This is a Hollowfication.

The vanishing soul case...

Squad members disappearing one after another as if erased.

And now, it's come to this.

Those were probably...

"Hollowfication" experiments.

Stand clear, Urahara!

Hado Number Eighty Eight!

Hiryu Gekizoku Shinten Raiho!

Bakudo Number Eighty One...

Danku.

That's impossible...

A lieutenant stopped my Kido using Danku without an incantation?!

I brought all eight of them here.

And the new gigai prototype you were working on, as well.

Yoruichi...

Get started on it.

From the moment you heard about this incident from Hirako,

you envisioned the worst-case scenario.

And you also came up with the best solution to counter that.

I will pass sentence!

The unfortunate captain of Squad along with

the other seven captain-class members,

who became the victims of your heinous experiments

will be dealt with severely as Hollows!

You are indeed the man I thought you were.

Kisuke did say...

"There were no miscalculations."

That was the biggest miscalculation of all.

As expected, everything turned out in the worst possible way.

Man, we sure owe Kisuke...

And...

Aizen, too.

Let's go.

Shinji Hirako...

I figured you were hiding in the World of the Living...

It's been a while since we last saw them.

Is there anybody in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads you guys want to say hello to?

No!

Shut up, Hiyori!

I wasn't talking to you!

What do you mean you weren't talking to me?!

You're talking to everyone, right?!

I'm fine.

Me too.

There's no one in the Thirteen Court Guard Squads I want to talk to.

B ,KENSEI, , , ,,Me neither.

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Ichigo isn't here. I wonder why?

Hey! Where are you going, Lisa?!

In that case...

I'll go say "hi" to the Head Captain.

Hey! Wait, Shinji!

How long are you going to play dead?!

Oh my...

What a surprise.

Look how beautiful you've become since the last time I saw you.

Lie down right there!

I'll show you how strong I've become!

Lisa-chan...

I'm glad you're doing well.

Idiot!

Indeed.

Did you come to settle your grudge?

Against Aizen, that is.

I don't have anything against you.

One thing I am upset about is

the fact that you placed an incredibly strong barrier

around this place to fight!

If I hadn't found this guy keeping watch outside,

we would have been circling this area forever!

B ,SASAKIBE, , , ,,I'm very sorry!

B ,SASAKIBE, , , ,,I wasn't too sure whether to let them in,

B ,SASAKIBE, , , ,,but considering the situation in here...

It's fine.

Shinji Hirako...

Can we consider you an ally for now?

Isn't it obvious?

You can't.

We're not your allies.

We're Aizen's enemies.

We're also allies...of Ichigo.

Ichigo...Kurosaki?

You're finally back.

Are you done talking?

Nope, but we can't waste anymore time.

The enemy is losing their patience.

What a noisy kid.

He's ruining the mood.

I hate it when he does that.

There is meaning to Wonderweiss's words.

Sit back and watch.

What is he trying to do?!

It can't be...

Are those all Gillians?!

Let's go.

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Mashiro Kick!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Kick!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Kick!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Kick!

You're all much too noisy.

This isn't a party, you know.

Please keep it quiet!

You're in the way.

Don't roll these big things my way.

That's right... Come here.

Come near me...

And become enslaved by my melody.

A-Amazing!

They're incredible...

They're incredibly strong!

Who are these guys?!

What do you think?

We've gotten pretty good at using our Hollowfication, haven't we?

Aizen...

Let's end this.

I missed?

Don't be ridiculous.

You hit me.

I wanted to slice off everything above your left eye.

I don't consider that a hit.

Big talk coming from a small fry.

You must really hate the fact that you're going to be k*lled by a small fry.

Komamura...

Allow me to assist you, masked visitor.

Are you sure you want to help shady looking guys like us?

Then again, you look pretty shady yourself.

You fought against those Menos Grande.

That alone is enough for me to call you an ally!

I have decided to fight with you!

I will not hear any objections, masked visitor!

What a pushy fellow...

I'm no good with guys like this.

Komamura...

Listen to him go off like that...

But he has a point.

Guess there's no time to question whether you're a friend or foe.

We don't really want to help out you Soul Reapers!

But now's not the time to be saying that!

That's right.

Strangers don't need a good reason to team up in battle.

The enemy of your enemy is your friend!

That's a good enough reason to join forces.

Indeed.

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,I wanted the last one!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,You stupid idiot!

B ,KENSEI, , , ,,Shut up!

B ,KENSEI, , , ,,You can have that large one over there. Don't complain!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,The big one...over there?

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,All right!

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,I love you, Kensei!

Uniting against a common enemy

is said to be one of humanity's bad habits...

but that's not true.

It's not a bad habit, it's a survival instinct.

In fact, it's at those times when spiritual unions are at their most--

Ow!

What was that for, Love?!

We're done talking about that!

Stop talking nonsense and focus on the things at hand.

Take a look. He looks strong.

Are you sure you want to remove your masks?

We can only keep them on for three minutes.

We're heroes, after all.

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Mashiro...

B ,MASHIRO, , , ,,Super Kick!

This is the exact opposite of how it was back then.

I never imagined the day would come where I would have to protect

someone from your sword.

I knew...

That someday we would cross blades.

And one of us would die.

Let's go.

B ,HISAGI, , , ,,I'm sorry, Captain Komamura.

B ,HISAGI, , , ,,Please let me join this battle.

Hisagi...

koe sae ushinattemo

Even if I was stripped of my voice...

boku wa koko de utau darou

I'd be here, singing my song.

koko kara hibike

Echo out from here!

miminari ni kesareta seijaku no yoru

The ringing in my ears stole the night's tranquility.

katachi nai mirai wo oikaketeta

I chased a future that doesn't exist...

sono te wa kuu wo tsukandekita kedo

Yet all I caught was nothing itself.

Listen to it! Listen to it!

deai ga tsumuideku merodi

The melody of the people we meet.

Listen to me! Listen to me...

oto ni kawaru

...as I become sound.

ima wa mada konna ni chiisa na kono koe ga

Though my voice is still small and meager today...

itsuka wa tsuyoku hibiiteiku kara

One day it shall gloriously resound.

Listen to it! Listen to it!

yasashiku yuriokosu merodi

The sweet melody that'll awake you from your slumber.

Listen to me! Listen to me!

kimi ga omou kimi e
My song will reach the person you want to be.

A horde of Menos is nothing to us Visoreds.

So, Shinji, how many did you defeat?

It doesn't matter how many I defeated!

What matters is how many we defeated together.

I don't want to hear that from someone who hasn't defeated any of them!

Illustrated Guide to Soul Reapers!

What the hell is this?!

Baldy Shinji really became a baldy!

I'm sorry, Captain.

I trimmed your hair while you were asleep.

B ,HIYORI (OFF), , , ,, Ow, my stomach! My stomach hurts from laughing too hard!

But it seems I overdid it.

You're all shiny now!

Do you have any idea how hard it was to grow out my hair afterwards?!

Aizen...

You'll pay for that!
