Bleach Anime Episode 209: Muguruma 9th Division, Moves Out

The pendulum of time has swung forward nine years, and mysterious events are occurring in the outskirts of the Soul Society. Three shadowed figures watch on as citizens of Rukongai are devoured and killed by a strange white substance. Some time later, Shinji, Aizen, Mayuri, Hiyori and Urahara meet to discuss the recent disappearances of various Rukongai citizens. Kensei Muguruma and his ninth division are deployed to assess the situation, and happen upon a gigantic hollow, which attacks three boys. One of the boys, a younger Hisagi Shuuhei, is saved from certain death by Kensei, who obliterates the hollow with his released zanpakuto, Tachikaze. Later in Mayuri and Urahara’s lab, Hiyori angrily reminds Mayuri of the fact that she is a lieutenant and he is only a 3rd seat, but he retorts that as long as they are in his lab, he is of a higher rank than her. We also get our first glimpse at a gigai, a prototype at this time, but still an idea that Kisuke had long ago. Hiyori is chosen to go from 12th squad to see what’s going on with the recent disappearances of the citizens. Kensei and the rest of his squad are camping in the woods, waiting to see of any signs of whatever has been attacking people. Toudou, one of his subordinates, seemingly kills Tosen and the rest of the group, then gets struck down himself.

Iba revealed how he know about Ikkaku’s Bankai but don’t have any plan to tell it to his captain. He questioned Ikkaku why he let the pillar he’s supposed to be protecting to be destroyed just so he could keep his pride and lectured him

“But you really need to think about this, Ikkaku. It was your job to protect the pillar but you let it get destroyed. And do you know why? Because you hid your powers.

“I don’t care if you die without ever using your full power but it better not come at the cost of failing your mission. Don’t hurt the entire squad because of your own pride! As long as you’re in the 13 Protection Squads, your orders are absolute!

“I don’t care if you’ve got to swallow your pride, you must execute your orders succesfully!
