Ichigo Infiltrates Hueco Mundo – Arrancar’s Fight Back – Bleach 487

Ichigo and friends finally arrive at Hueco Mundo to help Nel and the other Arrancar’s. The story between the soldiers from The Empire have taken over every possible area within Hueco Mundo and made it their own. They literally kill people if they are found to be weak and have to gain from them. Aizen’s earlier comrades, who still live, are still in the front line of gaining back what is already theirs.

Ichigo and the other enter the gate to Hueco Mundo. Ichigo asks Urahara, how he was able to get to his window in such perfect timing. Urahara replies that he was waiting outside of the window for the perfect timing, he then says that he’s joking. Since a lot of the story is linked to Ichigo in some way, he says that two Arrancar’s vanished, Ichigo’s fight with Ivan and an unusual accident in Soul Society would be to an alert. Urahara says to Ichigo that he should at least realize to an extent that everything is connected to the same thing. It is not revealed what tho.

They arrive in Hueco Mundo, not in silence but in a lot of noise that one of the soldiers noticed some voices where Ichigo and friends are. Another Soldier tells him that it’s his imagination and that he should forget about it since everyone in that area are just dead corpses.

Urahara hits the nail on the head and figures out that the reason why they didn’t follow-up on coming to find them is that there are dead corpses there nothing else. Orihime searches if anyone else is alive there, but doesn’t seem to find anyone who’s alive in that area.

Pesche reveals that they were able to defeat the people in Hueco Mundo was due to the Condensed Reishi which has a Blue color to it. It is able to set fire to the rocks and sand in Hueco Mundo. Since the people of Hueco Mundo weren’t able to prepare for the Condensed Reishi, they were unable to defend themselves. All they could do was to escape.

Ichigo decides to go and save the people who are located with the soldier since they are going to be killed one way or the other. Pesche says that Dondochakka is not there and that he shouldn’t go that way. Ichigo regardless goes there since it’s the only thing to do right now. Urahara asks Pesche, if Ichigo realizes that the ones he’s trying to save were enemies just a while ago. Chad tells Urahara that he does  and that just the type of person he is. Orihime and Chad follow Ichigo as they want to help also.

Kirge Opie, who is the Hunting Captain Supervisor of the Iacto Arme is sitting down on his chair until some more Arrancar and Hollows come to the place and told to stand alongside the wall. Kirge Opie stands up, two mysterious people talk to discuss who the leader might be. Kirge Opie stands and tells every Arrancar and Hollow that they will die unless they kneel in front of him and lick his shoes.

A Hollow with a mask, asks if he will become their comrade right away, in no time, Kirge Opie stabs him to death. Some of the soldiers says that he’s not going to take any soldiers since they are took weak. The two mysterious people go in front of him and as they are attacked, Kirge’s spear is cut in half.

These two mysterious people reveal to them as Aizen’s Aid, Loly Aivirrne and Menoly Mallia. With no weapon, Kirge activates his Quincy Cross, which helps him to quickly injure Menoly Mallia and after a quick moment, Kirge Opie opens his sword and smashes the hilt on Loly Aivirrne’s face. Kirge tells the soldiers to beat them but don’t kill them since they had passed the test.

A circular object appears from nowhere and it destroys the soldiers which were there to capture Loly and Menoly. Kirge turn around to stop the circular object. He finds that Emilou Apacci, Cyan Sung-Sun and Franceska Mila Rose are there to protect the name of Harribel as well as to defeat Kirge Opie for killing so many Arrancar’s and Hollows. The Chapter Ends here.

That was one crazy episode. So many fantastic characters are returning and this gives me goosebumps on how awesome it’s going to be when the fights start rolling in. Can’t wait for next week’s Bleach 488, when Ichigo and the others will keep on discovering Hueco Mundo.

Izanami Activated! – Itachi’s Past Revealed – Naruto 581

Kabuto starts to tempt Sasuke into changing sides to help Kabuto to defeat Itachi as he’s now becoming a nuisance for Kabuto himself. Sasuke wants to know the truth about Itachi’s past and why he did what he did. Itachi promises that he will tell him everything after they both defeat Kabuto. Itachi reveals that to defeat Kabuto, they would need to use Izanami which will stop Kabuto’s Edo Tensei.

We start the episode with both the brothers getting along pretty well even thought it seems Sasuke hates Itachi so much. Kabuto says that something may have happened during the defeat of Itachi, but he doesn’t seem to know what Sasuke might have with Itachi. Sasuke says that he wants to know the truth about Itachi’s past. In just a few moments, Kabuto seems to have analysed the way he said “The Truth”, Kabuto had said that he may already know the truth about him but wants him to say it.

Sasuke’s intention of entering the Akatsuki was to destroy the Hidden Leaf because they made Itachi suffer. Sasuke had followed him there, not to have another fight, but to find out the details about the whole story. Itachi had gone so far as to kill his own comrades to protect the leaf, Kabuto questions Sasuke on his will of destroying the Leaf would go against Itachi’s will.

Kabuto asks Sasuke, since they have a similar goal, if Sasuke wants to stab Itachi in the back and come join Kabuto to destroy the Leaf. He then mocks Sasuke and tells him that he shouldn’t feed guilty because he’s not technically betraying Itachi since he’s only a wooden doll.

Sasuke remembers the past where he’s in a bar where some Leaf Ninja’s are talking about Itachi. They mention that he’s a traitor and it’s a good thing that he died. They also mention that he’s one of the most atrocious villains in the village’s history. At this point, Sasuke opens his Sharingan and get’s really pissed off. Beside him is Tobi, who’s trying to calm him down, he mentions that they don’t know the truth about Itachi and he’s duties, he had done this to save the Leaf Villages themselves.

Kabuto explains that he and Itachi are the same since they both had no purpose in the end. Kabuto, as a child had been grown to be a spy, he traveled to many countries to spy with different names and identities. In the end, he had forgotten his own identity he was no trusted by the village and thus removed from any missions. Kabuto explains that he understands perfectly how Sasuke works, and that he can be he’s older brother.

Itachi interrupts to tell Sasuke that he’s a better liar then himself, thus he should stop listening to him. Itachi explains that the Village has a dark side, but he is still Hidden Leaf’s Itachi Uchiha. Itachi explains that he want wants to tell him one more thing, and he will tell him his after they have settled their battle with Kabuto here.

Kabuto boasts that he is the performer of the Edo Tensei (Impure World Resurrection/Reanimation) and that he’s recovery speed is very quick that any damage to him would render useless. Itachi explains to Sasuke that he doesn’t understand the real strength of the Uchiha. Itachi explains that Uchiha Eyes have the ability to effect a perfect regardless of their 5 Senses. Sasuke replies to Izanagi, Itachi asks how he knows about Izanagi, Sasuke replies with the fight with Danzou. Itachi is impressed that he survived it.

Itachi explains that it’s similar to Izanagi but is very different. The Ultimate Eye Jutsu That Holds Kabuto’s Destiny. As Kabuto comes for an attack and pushes Itachi back while Itachi shouts Izanami, he then explains that, Izanagi is a jutsu that changes destiny, while Izanami can decide destiny. Itachi explains that Sasuke should stay close to him since the Kin Jutsu has been released. The chapter ends here.

What an amazing fight this is turning out to be! Itachi and Sasuke are finally fighting together, as one for that matter. Sasuke keeps waiting for Itachi’s story while Itachi prolongs it until the end of the Edo Tensei. I can’t wait for next week’s Naruto 582, where the fight will carry on, hopefully we’ll get to see Kabuto’s getting beaten up by Itachi and Sasuke.
