I want to live in a world of peace Without conflict, like the one I dreamed of.
I can't be patient any longer There are things I must say
At the evening bus stop on the way home
I Wave to those sunken shoulders, Bye Bye Bye
Got to show your Fighting Pose, Oh! Oh!
That world I dreamed of Is peaceful every day, without any conflict.
But in reality, there are troubles every day
And sometimes I regret, these Rolling days
Lies probably have little meaning
~All my loving Otherwise, how can I go on?
A Sweet Love I dreamed of Where lovers search for a hideaway
But in reality, the days we can't meet
Go on; but we still believe, these Rolling days
We may stumble, but Way to go!! Yeah!! Yeah!!
A mud-caked Rolling star!!
This is… Her Spiritual Pressure is going out of control?!
Rantao! Hang on!
I can use this artifact
to remove the spirit energy that's going out of control inside you!
I've reached my limit.
It's not safe here! Let's go somewhere safe!
Do you think you can get away?!
You managed to escape death, but this is it.
Die!
Looks like you’re in a bind.
Kurosaki!
Brat!
Ishida, are you all right?
You don't need to worry about me…
What about you, Rantao?
I'm all right…
Ishida, take Rantao and get away from here…
Sorry, but I'm going to take on Kariya!
It seems like that's our only choice…
Yeah…
Bankai!!
Here I go!
Stop!
Getsugatensho!
Are you all right?
Thank you…
Ishida!
Inoue…
Thank goodness… You're safe…
Huh? What happened to your artifact?
It broke…
It broke?
Wasn't it supposed to explode if it broke?
Yeah… As I reached my limit,
I realized how to use the artifact for just amplifying reishi…
That way, it wouldn't explode when I surpassed my limit
because it was already empty.
I see…
Did you understand that?
Not at all!
It doesn't matter as long as he's safe!
But listen!
Stop going off on your own!
Everyone was worried about you!
Okay…sorry…
Are they there?!
Yeah, they're all right!
Where's Ichigo Kurosaki?
He's fighting Kariya.
Captain!
Yeah. I know.
We can't let Ichigo Kurosaki handle this burden on his own.
We're going, too.
Wait!
Who are you?
Oh… This is Rantao…
Rantao?! The exiled engineer, huh?
She created the Bounts?
You're a Thirteen Court Guard Squads Captain, aren't you?
Yeah…
I want you to do something for me…
At this rate, Seireitei will be finished!
Huh?
What do you mean?
You know that Kariya has absorbed the Jokai Crest
into his body, don't you?
Yeah…
We've already researched that.
The Jokai Crest is definitely powerful…
But he'll need time in order to use its full power.
In other words, he's probably buying himself time right now…
Yes… But the Jokai Crest power that's in Kariya isn't a big deal.
There's a different power we need to worry about…
A different power?
“Jokai Crest” is the general term
for giant reishi-generating devices we used to use.
There were probably, at least, several dozen within Seireitei.
One day, a Jokai Crest went out of control during an experiment…
When it exploded, it annihilated about a tenth of Seireitei…
The leaders at the time took this very seriously and sealed away
all of the Jokai Crests that were in Seireitei.
What?! There's more than one?!
If Kariya blows up the Jokai Crest that he's absorbed into his body…
It would probably set off all the other Jokai Crests…
That is Kariya's true goal.
If all of the Jokai Crests explode,
their destructive force would be unfathomable…
Why are such things in Seireitei?!
Because they're dangerous,
and dangerous things need to be kept in sight!
I see… “People often know little of…”
"what's happening in their own backyards,” right?!
Not quite…
What should we do?
We just have to seal each Jokai Crest with kido once more.
Many years have passed, and their current seals have weakened.
They'll react to Kariya's explosion.
Captain!
All right… We'll arrange to have them re-sealed immediately.
Do you know where the Jokai Crests are?
Here is…
Rantao!
I'm all right…
I told you before, didn't I?
I'm fighting with my Spiritual Pressure sealed away.
I'm overextending myself…
I've just reached the limit to which I can be active…
Sorry, but I leave the rest to you…
Matsumoto, let's go!
Yes!
What will you be doing?
We…
We're going after Kurosaki!
Kurosaki is fighting. We can't just run away.
Besides, I've got to heal Kurosaki's wounds!
Inoue…
Ishida, let me carry Rantao.
Let's go once we've taken Rantao somewhere she can rest.
Thank you, Sado.
All right, now that it's decided, let's go!
We're finally drawing towards the conclusion!
Let's see this to the end.
Everyone…
All right! Let's go after Kurosaki!
I commend you for keeping up with me this far…
I told you…
I'm going to settle this!
Do you know what kind of place this is?
Yeah. I know.
Far better than you…
This place is perfect for settling this.
Yeah…
Flash and Burst!
Nijigasumi!
You're…
SEIREITEI LIBRARY
What?!
Rantao gave us this.
It's a copy of a map that shows where the Jokai Crest seals are.
My, my… After all that’s happened,
who would have thought that there was still such a thing left?
It seems that we stayed up all night for nothing…
Captain! Now's not the time to be saying that!
Have you told the General Captain?
I've sent Matsumoto to see him.
We should get some orders soon…
Whatever the case, to seal this many Jokai Crests,
we need to mobilize all of our remaining captains,
lieutenants, and high-ranking officers…
What'll we do about Kariya?
Ichigo Kurosaki's gone after him.
Captains, lieutenants, and squad members of all ranks
of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, this is an urgent report!
The ryoka are after an ancient item known as a Jokai Crest.
We've confirmed the existence of several.
The Jokai Crests need to be sealed away immediately.
Issuing a level one precautionary warning!
Everyone is to head to a Jokai Crest seal!
We shall use hell butterflies to lead you there.
You too, Lieutenant Matsumoto.
Go to a Jokai Crest seal.
Yes!
Given the nature of the circumstances…
I shall directly lead everything.
Captain Komamura, assist me.
Understood.
Excuse me.
It seems like the fight on Sokyoku Hill has begun.
Yeah!
All of the Soul Reapers in Seireitei have been mobilized…
It seems that Ichigo Kurosaki is the one fighting the ryoka…
We should start preparing to evacuate.
Let's ask Lord Byakuya for instructions.
Yes…
Ichigo…
You're still alive?!
Master Kariya… There's something I want to ask you.
What is it?
Where are Koga and the others?
They died.
Died?
Yeah… They all died.
Is that so…?
Hey, what are you doing?
Stop!
I said, “Stop!”
I can't do that!
What are you doing? You're all worn out…
What are you doing, Ichinose?
If you…
If you told me to destroy Seireitei,
I would have no choice but to do so…
I have abandoned this place…
My heart would not hurt if it disappeared.
That's what I thought…
I saw my respected captain in you…
That's why I served by your side.
But…
We've come to serve justice. Why do you stand before us?!
How stupid!
Is that really your goal?
Relying on people and loyalty are different things.
Don't talk as if you understand!
Come on!
Kenpachi Zaraki!!
During my battle with Zaraki,
I remembered something I had forgotten…
I wanted to turn the Thirteen Court Guard Squads…
Seireitei into something even slightly better than what it is…
That was my wish…
My captain and I wanted the same world…
That's why I worked my hardest by my captain's side.
My ideal will not change even if he is gone.
But the emptiness of my captain's death
changed my desires into revenge.
Master Kariya…
You've gained the power to change Soul Society.
I shall kneel before you once more
if you will use your power to rebuild Seireitei…
But…
If…If you will only use it for revenge…
I will stop you!
Nothing can be born of revenge.
Now that Koga and the other Bounts are dead,
the only one who can stop you is me!
Master Kariya…
Ichinose…
I can't do that.
You're not getting away!
You can't stop me with your power.
Thanks for all your help…
Thanks to you,
you've allowed me time for the Jokai Crest's power
to spread through my body…
Kari…ya!
Kariya!
You bastard… Do you know what you just did?
What are you trying to say?
You killed your comrade!
He served by your side…
What about it?
“What about it”?!
He was your enemy…
Why do you pity him?
I don't pity him!
But I'm saying that I can't forgive you
for killing your comrade so coldly.
I never thought of them as comrades.
They were pawns I used to achieve my goal.
You bastard!
I'm going to settle this with you now.
Zeige Dih, Messer!
Wh-What's this?!
What is that?
What fierce wind!
And I can sense Kariya's Spiritual Pressure rising rapidly!
Let's hurry!
I didn't think there was a need to show you my doll…
But it seems I'm almost out of time.
This is my doll, Messer!
You can't come near me anymore!
You've sure got confidence.
What are you doing?
Renji…
Why are you here?
I couldn't find my captain, so I came for him directly.
Anyway, you…
Renji…
I want you to do something for me.
What is it?
Take me to the Sokyoku…
You…
You always lament on how boring this town is
…Searching for a place in the sun
The melody you hum is that rusty, same old song
…Rejecting any new song
You're anxious because somewhere in your heart, you believe in the future.
Baby, it's you;
That pain will eventually become a memory
You're the only one.
Don't think, just feel, let your whole body tremble;
future is you!!
Baby, it's me;
You're never alone, I'm right here
We should be as one;
Even if you stumble, I don’t mind
I want to tell you now about the thing called love
Soon.
Soon I'll be filled with the Jokai Crest's power
and I will wipe Seireitei from this world.
There's nothing anyone can do to stop me anymore!
Kariya… I'll stop you!
I won't let you destroy this world!
