02x12 - The Master

[bunniefuu]

Sister...
Hang on...!

Sister...!

What the hell?
Why are you doodling out here?

POST INVASION -
FORMER DEPARTMENT OF R&D
What the hell?
Why are you doodling out here?

Shouldn't you be inside
making preparations?

What are you talking about?

I was preparing while waiting
for you guys to get here.

What about the cat hag?
Where'd she go?

Yoruichi already
went up ahead of us.

I heard that!

I'll tell her that the idiot
immediately knew

- who I meant by "cat hag."
- Anyway, why don't you come inside...

Hold up.

Why did you let them
go ahead of us?

I thought the plan
was to wait for us

so we could all go together.

The situation has changed.

So what if it's changed?

What are you gonna do if they die
after going in by themselves?

You better not have sent
Ichigo and Yoruichi on their own...

because you're fine with them dying
as long as they delay the enemy.

What?!

You mean my sister
has already left?!

No way...

I finally heard from her
after a long time...

So I went through the trouble
of bringing all kinds of things

hoping it would help her...

I'm very sorry...

But I had to send Yoruichi ahead
for the sake of the Seireitei.

Please understand.

RD HEAD OF THE SHIHOIN CLAN
- YUSHIRO SHIHOIN

Yes, sir...

I'm certain the things you brought

will be of use
to your older sister.

Please come inside.

I remember now.

That "For the sake of the Seireitei"
thing of yours...

I hated it.

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 k*ll my vibe, oh baby

Burning out now,
like a sh**ting star

You can't k*ll my vibe, oh baby

Burning out now,
like a sh**ting star

THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD w*r

You will let me through,
Ichibe Hyosube.

I've chastised you many times,

and yet you still
say my name lightly.

Don't blame me
if you lose your voice.

What a horrible king
to run away like that, huh?

In that case,
I'm gonna k*ll his successor first!

Which of you
is the successor, again?

From here...

up to here!

I'll take you down
within this space!

That's a bit far.

You'll die three steps
short of that, Ichibe Hyosube.

"SEAL"

"SEAL"
I thought I told you...

Do not say my name so lightly.

Senri Tsutensho.

It blasts away anything it strikes
for , ri, no questions asked.

See?
I warned you, didn't I?

I told you not to blame me
if you lose your voice.

Go back another , ri...

to reflect on what you've done.

I shall give myself a voice!

Sankt Bogen!

To sh**t an arrow through yourself
to bring yourself back here...

Good grief...

You say my name
when I tell you not to.

I slap you away as punishment,
but you come back.

You've grown old, but you're still
quite the little rascal.

If you're not gonna listen to me,
then you leave me no choice...

I'll just have to k*ll you.

I'll wait until you guys are ready.

Either way,
it won't make a difference.

You will soon regret

your good fortune of
not having to fight His Majesty.

I don't know what power you used,

but my womb cannot
be easily destroyed!

I'm going in too!

Take this!

The water is just right.

Are you sure you want to let it
go to waste with a quick bath?

I'll consider it
after I defeat you.

After an outdoor bath,
treat yourself to a sunbath!

Kinpika!

I'm back on stage
for the first time in years,

but everyone stole my prey, yo.

Plus Y.H. is over there.

It's not over yet...

These wounds weren't fatal enough...

What's going on...?

I was picked by His Majesty
because I just wouldn't die...

A disgraceful ability,
don't you think...?

I hate it.

When I think about this ability...
I always get a fatal feeling.

My Schrift is "D."

The name of my power is
"The Death Dealing."

I can accurately calculate
the lethal dose

of a particular substance

and adjust that amount at will.

Say what?

It's hard to understand, right?

I didn't get it at first either.

But it's okay.

You don't need to understand.

Why bother when you're
about to die anyway.

Right now,

I'm lowering the lethal dosage
of the blood in your body.

The blood that allows
your body to move...

The more it flows inside you,

the more it will bring you
closer to death.

Painful, isn't it?
But you can't do anything about it.

It's a fatal feeling.

I know...

I feel the same way, too.

It must be difficult to focus
and collect Reishi

as they get stolen by the womb.

Licht Regen.

So gentle...

Just like the spring rain.

Come on, fight back!

Or I'll cr*ck
that prized shield of yours!

Do you think you can cr*ck it?

I don't have to answer that!

He stopped it?

Just kidding!

Looks like you're at your limit.

You underestimated me, didn't you?

I know the way I talk and act

gives the impression
of an underling.

But you see, I'm okay with that.

It used to bother me.

But these days,

I try to convince myself
that it's one of my charms.

Do I sound pessimistic?

That's also one of my fatal flaws.

Thanks... for the commentary!

Lowering the lethal dose of blood

means that I'll die if I have
a lot of blood in me, right?

In that case,

I just need to drain enough blood
until it is under the lethal dose.

Talk about reckless...

But it ain't that simple though.

Judging from your physique,
you must weigh about kg, right?

Good guess.
You're like a doctor.

I weigh kg, yo.

The approximate volume of blood
per kilogram is . ml.

At kg,
that's a little over liters.

If you lose half of it,
or liters,

you'll die from blood loss.

And the lethal dosage of your blood
right now is about . liters.

In other words,
unless you bleed yourself to death,

your own blood will k*ll you.

I'm guessing you're starting
to have a hard time telling

if you're standing
or collapsing?

I see...

You got me.
What should I do now...?

Well...?

Tenjiro!

Surprised?

Tenjiro's hot spring
wrings out blood and Spiritual Pressure.

But that's only the white water.

This red water replaces lost blood
with new blood.

I've been reborn.
Am I cool or what?

Yeah, you're very cool...

Me, on the other hand...

I thought I won in the end.

Guess I was the one who had been
underestimating his enemy.

That was fatal...

I don't despise the rain,

but I don't like my clothes
getting wet either.

Yup! Now that's what I'd expect
to see in a Squad Zero fight.

Okay, Osho.
You're the last one up!

Your expression has changed
quite a bit.

Has it?

You seem quite pleased.

I never would've guessed your face
could become so frightening

once you've made up your mind
to k*ll me.

But it seems that's
the extent of it!

You swatted it away with your arm.

My brush does not cut flesh...

It cuts names.

The name of your arm
has just been sliced in two.

Starting today,
all you have is an "ar."

Your arms feel heavier, doesn't it?

Its strength has been halved
and so has its ability.

Your arm can only function
at half-capacity now.

Your sword swings
have become so gentle.

There, split in two!

And now, you are just "Yhw."

Leader of the Quincies whose power
has been cut in half...

How does it feel to be
smashed into pieces...

by the leader of the Soul Reapers
that you loathe

with only half of your power?

W-Wait...

Don't take so much blood...

I don't want to die yet.

What...

...are you... talking about?!

You're... already... dead... remember?!

How many... times... do I have to...
tell you?!

Just shut up... and give me back...

...my damn... blood!

You're so cute, Bambi!

So cute!
You're so cute when you're dead!

I love you!
I love you so much!

Love you!
Love you!

There you are.

I knew you weren't dead.

Of course not.

Hey, what happened to your face?

It's a mess.

Did you lose or something?

PePe did this.

Whoa, that's embarrassing.

Shut up.

So what happened to PePe?

I k*lled him.

He tasted like sh*t.

Ew...

What about Meni and Candy?

The enemy got Candy,

and PePe took control of Meni,
so I took her out.

They shouldn't be dead though.

We can't let our forces
be diminished

until His Majesty comes back down,
you know?

Do you really think
he'll come back?

Yhw.

It seems a thousand years
was too short for you to repent.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

I won't give you a finishing time.

You shall repent for all eternity.

Raise them!

Silver emblems, ashen meadows,
circular path buried in light.

Eye of agate, tongue of gold,
skull cup, coffin of Adnyeus.

The object we raise is your heart.

What is that...?

"Auswählen."

What is that light?

That doesn't look good...
Run!

Damn it...
My wings...

Is it taking away our powers...?

The hell is that...?

Reishi...?

No, could it be the power
in their souls

that is being sucked up?

What is this...?

What is going on, Your Majesty...?

What do you think you're doing?

What the hell were we to you?!

Comrades.

What the...?
What's going on?!

That's what I wanna know!

Your Majesty...
is this your way of doing things?!

Bambi!

I won't die...
I won't die, okay?

Bambi!
I promise!

Damn right...

I won't die here... not like this...

- There's no way I'm dying here!
- There's no way I'm dying here!

Nanao, Okikiba...

Mind if I leave the barracks?

What?

It's not the Seireitei
that's in danger...

It's the Royal Palace.

What is going on?!

Stealing the power
of your comrades...

How ruthless.

That's what comrades are for...

We help one another so we can
resurrect and move forward.

What the hell is going on?

Auswählen.

It collects the lives and powers
of unnecessary Quincies

and redistributes them
to those who need them.

Those that lose it, die.

Those who receive it,

gain additional power
and come back to life.

It's one of His Majesty's powers.

The scales have tipped.

Squad Zero shall be purged.

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 Kn*fe

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

My, oh my...
there's destruction everywhere.

If we ever do drive the enemy out...

will the structures
from the Seireitei

return to the way it was?

What do you think...

Ukitake?

If they're broken or lost,
then we'll just fix them.

I knew you'd say that.

It seems they allowed
the Royal Palace to be invaded.

So you noticed it, too.

The Kamikake was
in anticipation of that.

You're right...

It appears that the Kamikake
was successful.

Then I guess you can push yourself
to some degree now.

Stop talking like a doctor.

Just be careful, alright?

I'll meet up with you later.

Wait.
Where are you going, Kyoraku?

Oh, I just need to... go grab a drink.

"A thread falls through
the clouds."

"Pull and rattle."

"A field of white cloth,
bones woven within."
