A Great and Sad time for all of us as this Filler/Arc ends and  Ichigo Loses his Shinigami Powers after using the Final Tenshou(Tensa) Zangetsu on Aizen!

In this weeks episode, we see Ichigo slowly lose his Shinigami powers after taking the temporary pill which would store his powers during Bleach 341! He fought 2 Hollows which both were very hard to kill on his own. On the second he released his Final Getsuga Tensho upon a large hollow which pulverized it completely!

So after waking up he goes outside to have some fresh air, he feels no spiritual pressure except from Rukia herself, he says “Even Rukia’s presence is gradually fading…”. After this they both share a couple of touching words and Rukia fades away.

This Arc/Filler has finished! Next week’s episode (Bleach 343) will feature “The Lost Substitute Shinigami” Arc! It will include new characters, new powers and even more awesomeness! For those who left after Aizen’s Capture, you HAVE to get back to Bleach!
