03x09 - Don't Chase A Shadow

Post by bunniefuu »

That was Captain Kurotsuchi, wasn't it?

Yes. But knowing him,
I'm sure he's fine.

Agree.

The main problem is

that Spiritual Pressure Around
decreased to one point

where we can feel fluctuations
from far away.

It's complicated.

We don't know
from where the enemy is attacking.

But if we slow down
We will end up playing their game.

They must be scared.

Of course they are. I would be too.

They don't know
from where they are being attacked,

And they're losing their men
one after the other,

far and away.

How could anyone not be scared?

Well, anyway...

We still don't know anything about the enemy
after suffering so many casualties...

If someone in the pack isn't afraid,

or he's a fool...

It's time to start acting.

Or are you a loser
that deserves to be abandoned.

Idiot! I said if we slowed down
we would fall into his game.

I found you...

No matter how well
the flock is unified,

It will collapse
with an act of foolishness.

I saw countless gangs like that.

I've been waiting for you Reapers
of Souls, were different, but...

Bo...

dhi...

dhar...

That voice...

- but...
-Where...?

Ele...

Falls!

Good reflexes. You're really fast.

But now...

You have lost your g*n.

And now he will lose his life.

I clasp my hands and pray

Why is fate so cruel?

My Desire to Appear Brave
Is it about to fall apart


Everything I do seems to go wrong, you know?

Oh, calm down, I still have faith in you

Even if we're apart

Even if you forget me someday

BLEACH: THOUSAND-YEAR BLOOD w*r

We don't need words
To understand us


We are connected at a higher level

Sorry, fate, but you're lying

So let's laugh about it by doing
A brave face


With you, I guess
That we can change the destination


On lonely nights when I want to cry

I will pray for you

So I don't leave you alone

What happened?

He has traveled such a distance
without my feeling it.


How did he get behind me so fast?

Wait...

Don't tell me you never played
Bodhidharma does he fall?

What falls?

It looks like you've never played it.

I think your culture
It's different from ours.

By the way, I'm impressed
that you were able to keep up with me...

Nanao.

That doesn't sound much like a compliment.

But this time it's dangerous,
Then go back to the others.

I refuse.

So tell everyone to follow
Forward without the two of us.

Understood. I'll inform them and come back.

Captain!

If you die before I come back,

I'm going to shave the hair on your chest.

Please, don't.
No one could identify me.

Frankly.

She's starting to act
and talking like Lisa.

Did you stop the clowning?

That's rudeness, don't you think?

We received data on battles fought
for each one of you.

Your Zanpakuto has the power to transform

child's play in reality.

Your attack
It was one of those jokes, wasn't it?

Yes.

Bodhidharma He Falls is a game
where the "catch" looks back

after speaking the verse with his eyes closed.

Anyone caught moving is captured.

There are three rules.

First...

The "catch" must be in a location

where it can be seen by the participants.

Second...

if participants are caught
moving through the "magpie",

they lose.

Third...

if participants can touch
the "catch" before they are caught,

they win.

I understand, it's like English Chocolate.

So you have a similar game.

I wasted my time explaining.

When you start playing this game,

the Spiritual Pressure released by the "magpie"

in the attack will always be visible to you.

You can then follow the trail

Shortest Spiritual Pressure

to reach and touch
in the "catch" before he sees you.

Meanwhile, the "catch" sees
an illusory static image of you.

That's it?

These rules seem to
well favorable to you at first sight,

But if you
If you get caught moving, you lose.

As long as I realize it's
An illusion and take who you really are,

you die.

Brave. I'm glad you
He understood everything so quickly.

Are you happy?

It was a mistake to explain the rules to me.

You can no longer play this game.

This is not true.

You can't start the game
until both sides understand the rules.

And...

That static image of me
What you saw before was not an illusion.

You, in fact, saw me.

What?

We are all unconsciously depending on

of vision and perception
of Spiritual Pressure to see objects.

As we focus on the battle,

We started to depend more
of this perception than of our eyes.

So I solidified
My Spiritual Pressure

And left her back there so you could
mistaken her for my true self.

Nonsense.
I would never make a mistake like...

But you did.

Who do you think I am?

I am Shunsui Kyoraku, Captain General
of the 13 Divisions of Court Guards.

Captain General wants us to continue.

Beauty! So let's go on without him.

He's right! We should go back
and help Captain Kyoraku...

Captain! Won't we help you?

We are out of time.

True, but still...

What about you?

What do you think, Nanao?

I will be back.
The rest of you can follow.

Is? So one more question.

What do you think Ukitake
Would you say if he were here?

Se Kyoraku says
that he will be fine, he will be fine.


Now let's go.

There is your answer.

Now that you know, let's go.

And one more thing
while we're on the subject...

If it was old Genryusai
whoever stayed behind,

He would say to go on without him too.

That's what it means to be the captain general.

They carry the lives
of their officers on their shoulders.


Bo... she... dhar... but...

Here.

I told you.
You can't play that game anymore.

Good!

It's the first time anyone has dodged
Kageoni on the first try!

I already warned you.

We have data on all the battles
that you have already fought.

And on the contrary...

You have no information about us.

I thought I had dodged it.

Isn't it unfair not to tell me anything?

I don't mean it
to create a fair struggle.

I don't think so
that telling you would make things fair,

but I will say it anyway.

I'm Stern Ritter "X".

Lille Barro, "The X-Axis".

My power penetrates everything.

There is no room for the concept
of "dodging" to avoid it.

Did you see a shadow?

His expression suggests
who is wondering how I dodged.

Don't worry,
As you said, I didn't shy away.

You just shot at an afterimage.

This is called Kage Okuri.

It's a game of designing
A shadow you face

to a different location.

Use your perception
of powerful Spiritual Pressure

will leave a sharper afterimage.

The scary thing
About children's play

Is that you never know when
or which one is about to start.

No matter how disinterested
you are,

When the child takes you by the hand, it's over.

You get stuck playing until you die.

His hand was caught.

So let's keep playing
until we die.

You were careless.

Thought you could cut me down
if he got close enough?

I thought so. In fact...

You've already been cut off.

I thought I had cut it
so does your arm.

It seems that I
I didn't get close enough.

Diagrams.

This weapon is my bow.
It is made of my Spiritual Particle.

I understand...

So you can sh**t
even with the barrel cut

and rebuild it if it breaks.

But you've forgotten the rules.

If you take your eyes off
From me for a moment

and glimpse my shadow,

Everything your eyes see
It will be my silhouette.

Makes you think of the past, doesn't it?

When you were a child,

e had a shadow
that followed you everywhere...


that scared you a lot.

No...

This is the third time.

I can only exercise
the quintessence of "The X-Asis"

when both my eyes are open.

In other words...

My shots will penetrate your body
and my body pierces his sword.

I understand.

Then with both eyes open,

My rules no longer apply?

That's right.

At this time, there is no weapon
in this world that can k*ll me.

I'm allowed to open both my eyes
just for a brief moment,

when I am in danger during combat.

If I kept
eyes open all the time,

it would be unfair to sinners.

Serious? So hurry up
And close that eye there.

However, once I open it
my eyes three times in combat,

Only then can I keep fighting
with both eyes open.

I'm the first Quincy
who received powers from Her Majesty.

I am Her Majesty's masterpiece.

The closest to God.

Being forced to open
my eyes three times...

that is totally unacceptable!

Ziliel.

I can't move...

DON'T CHASE A SHADOW

SHUNSUI KYORAKU

I have to admit...

I run just fine for a guy
with these wounds.

Things would be easier
If I had died the first time.

I wish I wasn't so strong.

I can't even faint,
much less die.

There's no point in complaining
when Nanao is not around

to put sense in my head.

This one was nearby!

You move well, despite the injuries...

But...

Did you think you could escape me?

Wasn't I clear?

There is no weapon that can k*ll me.

I heard you.

But what about a Kido blade?

Fate Number 78: Zangerin.

That's why I didn't want to fight
with you, Ichigo Kurosaki.

You spent time here
in the Royal Palace, right?

You happened to receive some training

or strange technique of that guy, Osho?

So what if I received it?

I knew it. yes, it was in the face.

He did not feel the poisoning
of Spiritual Particle.

Nevertheless

Now that I know that,
All I need to do is adjust the flavor.

What are you chattering about there?

I wasn't chattering.
I'm saying it's fatal.

I didn't expect Kido
did some real damage...

but not even a scratch?

That's what they call it
of being at the end of the line.

I'm back where we are
upon entering the Royal Palace.

I just hope everyone
are far enough.

As for you, Nanao...

I'm sorry if I dragged you into this.

Now...

It's time to take the next step
of the end of the line.

Bankai.

Katenkyokotsu Karamatsu Shinju.

This spiritual pressure...

Is it Kyoraku?

What is this strange feeling?

Then you finally showed yourself.

Sorry for making you wait.

By the way,
Can I know your impression?

What does the world look like to you now?

Does it feel dark and lonely?
Full of despair?

I understand. So that's your work.

Is this what you call Bankai?

Yes, that's my Bankai.

The colors of the world look different
than they were before,

But despair is exaggeration.

That's because...

The Messenger of God
he never feels despair.

We don't have data
about the ability of your Bankai...

But there is one thing I know about them.

If the sword-bearer dies,
your Bankai disappears.

What is it?

Primeiro Ato: Tameraikizu No Wakachiai.

The inflicted wounds
to the enemy appear in themselves

as if they were sharing them.

But unfortunately... You can't die
because of these injuries.

What are you talking about?
What's happening?

I told you. This is what we call Bankai.

Katenkyokotsu Karamatsu Shinju.

Enough of the conversation between the acts.

Please be silent
during the presentation.

Now for the Second Act.

Zanki No Shitone.

A man who repents
of hurting your opponent

Collapses on the floor in shame
and suffers from an incurable disease.

And before you know it, Act Three...

Dangyo No Fuchi.

Accepting your fate...

They throw themselves into the rising waters

until your Spiritual Pressures
be consumed.

No...

It can't be...

No matter how much I flap my wings...

the surface only gets farther away from me.

Of course it is.

We threw ourselves into the water, remember?

Flap your wings all you want,
But it's already done.

It's not that I don't understand
how you feel.

Throw yourself into icy waters
It can test the person's resolve.

- That's you being selfish.
- That's you being selfish.

- You have no honor.
- You have no honor.

Man's misfortune
to whom she has committed.

Only the pen keeps her with him
and linked to this world.

Isn't that true?

Sakuranosuke.

It's been a while, Ohana.

Ohana? Serious?

You have courage calling me by that name

When you just play with me
from time to time.

Come on, don't be like that. I'm sorry, Ohana.

I see that your kimono is torn.

That's what you get for still keeping
another woman's kimono.

You deserved it.

Evil as always, from what I see.

I can be bad,
but I am still your sword.

You took me for better or for worse

And we swore we'd die together, didn't we?

Who are you talking to?

Do you think you won this battle?

That you can k*ll me?

Don't think that mere Bankai
of a Soul Reaper could k*ll me!

A woman's sentence is really cruel.

She doesn't listen to a petulant man.

Around the throat of the man she loves

There's a bright white thread
drenched in regret.

At least allow me to cut

that tangled line of regret.

With this I present, the Final Act...

Itokiribasami Chizome No Nodobue.

The occasional Bankai isn't too bad

If I can rest
my head in your lap, Ohana.

Calm down.

It's the only eye I have left.

Just like me. How ironic...

Fate knows how to play
with the Grim Reaper of Souls and his sword.

Still, I'm glad you won.

Hey, what got into you?

You're being very kind today.

Silence, you almost died.

Ohana...

I...

A pain
In a poor grayscale


My confidence disappears

I turned regret into lies
I ignored our chipped blades


I worked overtime just for maintenance

But I knew all along

That this faded color
It was an irreversible law


So I might as well pray

There's no going back now

I thought I'd made up my mind

Mas continuo assombrado
By doubt and anxiety


A bundle of shattered emotions

No more for me to gain

What is most important
Than life itself


Is to carry this burden
To break away from this monochrome


I'm still looking for the answer
For an unsolved thesis


While I make choices until I die

Then I remember where we came from

And of the lives that could never interact

No one is allowed to use the scale
Since it falls apart in an instant


So, what can I compare ourselves to?

Instead, I cling to your words

That gave meaning to my heart

It's always a paradox

A lua grows
With every regret and sorrow


The huge and invincible enemy is
The darkness that dwells in me


I have given up my pride and joy

But I'm still confused
With this bunch of imperfections


Beyond the midnight sun white and bitter
awaits an illusion sculpted in black


"My child's hand, so lost.

Wandering in search of my.

Near, but far, I take your hand.

Together we will walk... to the end."

BABY, HOLD YOUR HAND 2
