ANNOUNCER 1:
And now, folks,
let's get in a warm welcome.



This century's

[CROWD CHATTERING]

Ooh, yeah!

The spirits are always
with you.

SPECIAL LIVE PROGRAM

HAUNTING SCREAMS
FROM AN ABANDONED HOSPITAL

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

Hmm?

Huh?

Ichigo, you barely
reacted at all.

Don't you even know
where it's from?

Uh,
Spirit Hunter?



Yeah, isn't that show
just the best?

Come on then,
Ichigo.

Join in with me.

Bwa--!
Banzai!

Oh, hey, Tatsuki,
what's the matter?

Let's go already,
you can bwa-ha-ha with me.

Now move!
[ORIHIME GROANS]

Yo, Ichigo. Keigo here.
Huh?

And Mizuiro!
ICHIGO: Hm.

[IN UNISON]
Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

[GROANS]

MIZUIRO:
What do you mean,
you're not going?

It's the best TV show
in Japan.

And it's gonna be broadcasting
live from Karakura.

You live in this town,
dude.

You'd have to be dead
to miss it.

Guess that makes me
a zombie.

Get lost.
[GROANS]

But I already went to the
trouble of asking Rukia to go.

Hi, Ichigo.

Uhh...

Come on, Rukia.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

Mm...no.

I'd be too embarrassed
to do it.

MIZUIRO:
Oh please, Rukia? Do it.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!
Geez.

She's becoming quite
the little actress, isn't she?

[CROWD CHANTING]

And how is everyone
tonight?

Hold on to your seats,
my babies.

It's time again
to hear the spirits cry.

[APPLAUSE]

So tell us, what do you
think of this place? Well?

The stench of the spirit world
hangs in the air around us.

I'd have to say that.

CROWD [CHANTING]:
Smells like bad spirits!

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

ANNOUNCER 1:
And we're cutting
to commercial.

ICHIGO:
Man, I hate stupid shows
about spirits.

This way, everyone.

We're about
to get started.

Make your way to the spirit
purification location.

Ichigo?
Hm?

I'm, uh, sorry
for the other day.

What do you mean?

It's just that
Tatsuki was telling me

you really can't stand
TV shows like this one.

And I had no idea.

That's cool.
It's really no big deal.

[IN UNISON]
Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

ICHIGO:
Look at those two.

They know it drives me nuts,
but they do it anyway.

But you still
showed up.

Why is that?
Oh.

Yeah, well, my dad
and my little sister

go out of their minds
for Spirit Hunter.

[BOTH LAUGHING]
ORIHIME: That's why you're here?

ICHIGO:
Guess so. I couldn't just let
them come alone, you know.

Wow, you've got
such a good heart, Ichigo.

Why,
isn't that normal?

Uh...

Oh, yeah.
That's normal.

Mm-hm.
Very normal.

TATSUKI:
Hey, Orihime, we're gonna
head on without you.

Oh, hey!

Hold on, Tatsuki,
wait up!

See ya.

[♪♪♪]

ICHIGO:
Yeah, sure. I'm normal.

But what about
the rest of these weirdos?

What's their
excuse?

RUKIA:
Ichigo, what's wrong?

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

You too?

Hey, what's with
the serious look?
[SCOFFS]

As long as you're here, you
might as well try and have fun.

Shut up.
I'm always like this.

Between
all of your schoolwork

and your duties
as a Soul Reaper,

you must be exhausted.

And there will be hard battles
on the road ahead.

Use tonight to enjoy yourself
a little.

What?

Are you--

By the way...

Tell me. What is
this festival all about?

You mean you showed up here
without even knowing?

Seriously, you think
there'd really be spirits

in an old, deserted hospital
like this one?

RUKIA:
What are you getting at?

I mean, if they had been here,
you Soul Reapers

would have helped them
cross over already, right?

Well,
not necessarily.

Jibaku spirits are often tied
to places like this.

Jibaku spirits are ghosts
that dwell within the earth,

so it's very rare that
Soul Reapers

are able to pinpoint
their location.

There's only one reason
a Jibaku would reveal itself...

MAN: Get more lights. Hurry!
Okay.

When it notices humans
are invading its territory.

[EERIE WAILING]

Huh?

What's the matter,
Chad?

Do you guys hear anything?
Huh?

Come on, Chad,
cut it out.

You're giving me
the creeps.

It's just
your imagination.

[EERIE WAILING]

Yeah, right.
My imagination.

Oh, boy.

I never should have come out
here with you guys.

Hey, why the long face?
Nothing.

[EERIE WAILING]

[WHIMPERING]

That's the cry
of a Jibaku.

So there
is one here.

Wait a sec, how do you know
that sound's not a Hollow?

[EERIE WAILING CONTINUES]

RUKIA:
There are certain paths along
which Hollows come into being.

One path is when
a Jibaku spirit,

with its fierce attachment
to the world,

is left alone
and becomes a Hollow,

much like
this spirit here.

So then
he's a--

RUKIA:
A Whole on the verge
of becoming a Hollow.

A Demi-Hollow.
[SCREAMING]

Yeah, well he sure feels like
a Hollow to me.

Except that he's not wearing
one of those white masks.

And the hole in his chest
hasn't opened all the way.

RUKIA:
The hole in a Hollow's chest

shows that the heart
has been lost,

leaving nothing but
raw instinct.

The white skull-shape mask
is all that shields

those bared instincts
from the outside world.

Neither are necessary
if the heart is still intact.

Upon death, the chain of fate
is severed from the body.

Usually, the spirit waits
for a Soul Reaper's guidance.

But if they have regrets
in this world,

they become bound to
the source of their pain.

Huh.
[BELL RINGS]

So that means
this Demi-Hollow's heart

is chained to
the hospital.

DEMI-HOLLOW:
This hospital belongs to me!

I'm not giving it up
for anyone!

Don't even think about
trying to come in here!

I'm gonna be rich
in this place--

[GRUNTS]

Yeah, well, whatever he is,
he sure sounds like a dumbass.

ANNOUNCER 1:
Coming back
from commercial--

Oh! I think the show
is about to get started.

[CROWD CHEERING]
Ugh.

The spirits are always with you.

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

RUKIA:
Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

Hey,
knock it off!

Don't worry.

It takes months for a spirit
to transform into a Hollow.

Now then,
the time has come once again

for Don Kanonji
to take the stage.

You can feel the excitement
in the air tonight.

RUKIA:
We don't want the spirit
to become agitated

with this many
people around.

We'll do the Konso
after the show.

ICHIGO:
Yeah, but--

Spirits go through
so much pain

when they transform
into Hollows.

They fill the night
with terrible screaming.

I mean, does it look like that
Demi-Hollow is suffering to you?

Huh?
And who the hell are you?

You think you can come in here
and defile my hospital?

You've got some nerve,
buddy.

And what's with
the crazy frickin' hat?

My guess is no.

There, you see?

Unless someone
deliberately messes with

that opening
in his chest,

he's still got
another six months

before he becomes
a Hollow.

Ah!
Huh?

[SCREAMING]

All right, let's send you
over to the other side, baby.

[YELLING]

[CROWD CHEERING]

ANNOUNCER 1:
There it is, the super spirit

gained an unusual move for him
this early in the game.

What the hell does he think
he's doing?
The fool!

RUKIA:
All he's doing is speeding up
the creation of a Hollow.

[SCREAMING]

Oh, yeah!

[CHANTING GIBBERISH]

...get gone!

[SCREAMING]

Come on, knock it off!

Hey,
who's that guy?

Security, do your job!

[CROWD CHATTING]

[YELPING]

Over here, we've got
to get you out of your bodies.

MAN:
Get her!

Let go of me.

[SCREAMING]

[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTS]

Hm.

No!

Get your hands
off of me!

[GRUNTING]

Who did that?

Hello.

ICHIGO:
Mr. Hat and Clogs?

URAHARA:
Don't just stand there
like a lump.

Get to work
already.

Right.

Hey,
what's wrong?

What the hell are
you doing here?

What?
TESSAI: Out of the way.

I'll take care of this.
Hey.

ICHIGO:
Stop it!

Huh?

[GRUNTS]
Huh?

[GRUNTS]

ANNOUNCER 1:
Holy moly,

Don Kanonji was just
thrown through the air.

What's wrong with you,
kid?

Well, then,
I guess you can see me too.

Of course I can.

I'm the century's
premiere spiritualist.

Oh, wait, I get it.

You're dead, but you're
a fan, aren't you?
[GASPS]

Don't make me kill you.

Uh... Huh?

[SCREAMING]

Don't tell me,
am I too late?

[SCREAMING]

He's gone.

Yeah!

Mission accomplished,
baby!

Are you kidding?
ANNOUNCER 1: Another successful

soul purification!
No.

RUKIA:
The moment a Demi-Hollow
becomes a Hollow,

it disperses and reforms
as a Hollow elsewhere.

And if its heart was bound
to something

here in this hospital--

[GASPS]
[CROWD CHANTING INDISTINCTLY]

Yeah! Thank you!

Look out, Ichigo!
Above you!

[♪♪♪]

[GROANING]

[SCREAMING]

[ROARING]

What is it?

A Hollow.
I hope you're ready.

Oh, I feel it.

I feel something...

that reeks with the stench of
a super dangerous spirit.

Now I understand, you're that
other spirit's evil lord,

and you've come here
seeking vengeance.

Nice try, jackass.

Oh, the pain.

Must devour!

KANONJI: Hold on.
[YELPS]

Run, boy.

Huh?
[KANONJI SHOUTS OUT]

[CROWD GASPS]
Come on, you bad spirit.

Don Kanonji, the premiere
spiritualist of the century,

is ready!

[SHOUTING]
How are you?

[GRUNTS]
What are you doing?

[GRUNTING]

Kid,
why didn't you run?

Hey, look, you're the one
who should be running.

Huh? Me, run?
What are you saying?

Huh?

[ROARING]

Oh, Jesus.

URAHARA:
Just as I thought.

Wonderful.

But he's got his work
cut out for him.

Let's see how he does.

[YELLING]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

A golden chance.
Heh, heh!

Let's move.

[YELLING]

ANNOUNCER 1:
What could this mean, ladies
and gentlemen? Don Kanonji--

Oh, I see, so that's how you
plan on fighting this one, huh?

ANNOUNCER 1:
The glass of the entrance

has been shattered and whole
walls have been destroyed.

Folks, it appears
that Don Kanonji

must be battling against
some unknown force.

Don't worry
about it.

A Hollow of that level
won't be a problem for Ichigo.

But I, uh--

Best not to make too much
of a fuss at the moment.

Besides, it seems as Don Kanonji
has a bit of power himself.

Why don't we
let them handle it?

Wait, why are we
running away, kid?

Because I heard some idiot say
we should run.

I know, but I was talking
about you, kid, not me.

Kanonji runs from no one.
[SCOFFS]

Wha--? Huh?

[GRUNTS]
[KANONJI YELLS, GROANS]

All right.
Can you explain this one to me?

Why should I run away
and you stay behind to fight?

Well, I...

I have to stay,
because...

Because after all,

I'm the hero.
Huh?

Listen, little man.

Do you have any idea
the ratings my show

pulls in
for the network?

What the hell
do I care?

I'll tell you
why you should.

I've got 25 percent.

One in every four households
is watching my show.

[GROANING]

KANONJI:
And many of those
viewers are...

children!
Hm?

KANONJI:
Those children
watch my adventures,

and their hearts
are inspired.

They see me stand up
to evil spirits,

and learn what
true courage is.

So don't you
get it?

With all those kids out there
watching my show,

running isn't an option,
understand?

Don Kanonji,
you're right.

You bet I am.

Now let's get out there
and crush that monster.

Huh?

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Think, you idiot.
You can't do that.

What if the audience
gets mixed up in it?

That thing is
going after people

with high levels of
spirit energy, like you and me.

There's no question
it's gonna come after us,

but we need to
fight it

in here so no one in
the audience will get hurt.

Kid...

I am amazed.

For you to have thought
things through like that

in the heat of battle.

Kid.

[HOLLOW ROARING
IN THE DISTANCE]

He's here.

[♪♪♪]

[GASPING]

I'll devour you!

Let's do this!

Huh?
Not enough room.

[GRUNTING]

Damn it, it's too cramped
to use the Zanpakuto.

[YELPS]

What? What the hell
is this?

I can't frickin
get it off.

I can't get him.

[ROARING]

Ah, hold on
a second!

[♪♪♪]

[GRUNTING]

[GROWLING]

Hey, kid.
Are you all right here?

You again?

Move it,
Kanonji, run!

Damn it. Huh?

Hey! Hold on!

[ROARING]
[GRUNTS]

Huh?

[HOLLOW CONTINUES GROWLING]

K-Kanonji?

Are you hurt, kid?

You can't handle him!

Get the hell out of here!

KANONJI: No.
Huh?

KANONJI:
I know my own strength,
and I know the difference

between my enemy's powers
and my own.

I must say, you've made
quite an impression on me today

putting the safety
of others first.

That's great.

You and I
are two of a kind.

What's say
we be friends?

Oh, uh...
That's all right, really.

Whoa...

Kanonji!
Ultimate attack!

Cannonball.

[♪♪♪]

[YELLING]

[SCREAMING]

Gah!

Kanonji!

Even if this body
is obliterated,

so long as I can serve

as a shield to the children
of tomorrow,

I shall carry no regrets

for the life that I've lived.

Good luck.

[YELLING]

Sorry, pal,
but this is the end.

Ah!

Well done.

That was great!

Magnificent!

Just magnificent! Yeah!
Kanonji.

Don't get too excited.

Huh?
Why not, kid?

You just defeated
this monster.

This is a time to rejoice.

Huh?

Huh? What the?

[♪♪♪]

Huh?
It can't be.

He's the one who...

What?

He was a Hollow.

With the chain linked
to his soul broken,

the hole in
his chest opened.

He became a monster devoid
of conscience, a Hollow.

That who?

So then...

No.

So if that's
the case,

what is it I've been doing
all this time?

Oh, no.

I'm so ashamed
of myself.

[KANONJI CRYING]

Huh?

[CROWD CHEERING IN DISTANCE]

Hey, come on.

Quit your crying,
hero, let's go.

Huh?
Everybody's waiting.

[CROWD CONTINUES CHEERING]

[GROANING]

What's wrong?

You'd better answer 'em.

It's part of a hero's duties,
isn't it?

Kid.

ANNOUNCER 1:
All right,

Don Kanonji's soul purification
seems to be over.

Mission accomplished!

Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

CROWD:
Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

[GRUNTS]

[CROWD CHEERING]

[♪♪♪]

Kid, that was
a magnificent battle.

I stand in awe
of your courage,

and I'm amazed by
your power.

I hope you'll lend me
that strength in the future.

Uh...

Yeah, sure,
once in awhile.

Thank you.

From now on,
you will be...

My number one
pupil.

ICHIGO:
That's a demotion!

♪ Nobody knows
Who I really am ♪

♪ I never felt
This empty before ♪

♪ And if I ever need
Someone I'd come along ♪

♪ Who's going to comfort me
And keep me strong? ♪

[WOMAN SINGING IN JAPANESE]

ICHIGO:
Rukia and I set out
to exterminate some Hollows.

KANONJI: It is I, Don Kanonji.
ICHIGO: But someone

beats us to it.
KANONJI: Repeat after me.

ICHIGO:
A mysterious figure watches
from the shadows.

KANONJI:
I can't hear you!
One more time. Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

ICHIGO:
Shut up, will ya? I'm begging
you, please go home!
