[MAN SINGING IN JAPANESE]

[CLANKING]

MAN:
Attention, red alert.

Red alert.

Intruders detected in West
Rukon. This is not a drill.

Repeat, red alert.

Breach detected
in West Rukon.

Wait a sec.
What the hell is going on?

[ALL PANTING]

YORUICHI:
Don't look now, but that
section we just came through



is collapsing on us.
I'm running as fast as I can,

but I still don't think we're
going to make it through.

Quit looking behind you,
and concentrate your efforts

on running.

If the restrictive
current swallows you up,

then it's all over.

[SCREAMING]

[PANTING]

Uryu.

I knew that stupid outfit of
his was going to get him caught.

YORUICHI:
Hold it.

You musn't do that,
Ichigo.

The restrictive current
entangles the spiritual body.

If you reveal yourself
using your Zanpakuto,



it'll swallow you too.

[YELLING]

[GRUNTING]

Thanks for that,
Chad.

CHAD:
Let's go.

[GRUNTING]

What do you think
you're doing?

Hey!
Put me down, will you?

I can run
on my own!

I don't mean to bother
you while you're running,

but something
else is coming.

Ah!

Yoruichi,
what is that?

[ALL PANTING]

It's the cleaner.

It comes through
here every seven days

to clear out
the passage way.

And it's just our bad luck
that today is the day.

YORUICHI:
Don't look back
at it.

That'll only
slow you down.

Just keep running,
or it'll crush you to powder.

YORUICHI:
Go, go!

We're almost
to the exit.

[ALL PANTING]

Guys, we're not
going to make it!

[ORIHIME SPEAKING JAPANESE]

[SPEAKING JAPANESE]

[ALL SCREAMING]

[GASPS]

Hey,
is everyone all right?

[GIGGLING]

Ichigo, the way you
landed showed

tremendous
artistic flair.

Gee,
thanks a lot.

[GROANING]

I knew it'd be rough
getting through that gate.

But I had no idea it would take
such a toll on my equipment.

I wasn't expecting to have
to use my spare cape so soon.

Aw, man.

Don't tell me he brought
a change of clothes.

Guys,
isn't this great?

We all made it,
and everyone's okay.

It's not great.
We were lucky.

My eye.

I told you not to expose your
spiritual powers in there.

We're fortunate that
the cleaner only

made contact with
the shield area.

If it had even touched any part
of the six flowers themselves,

you'd all be
dead now.

I...I didn't know.

Hey,
lighten up.

How was Orihime
supposed to know that?

And anyway, if it hadn't
been for her quick thinking,

we wouldn't have made it through
that gate in the first place.

I don't think any
of you appreciate

how serious the situation is.
Listen.

YORUICHI:
Doesn't it seem awfully
quiet around here?

Yeah.

Is this place really
the Soul Society?

Yes.

And the specific area we're in
is called the Rukon District.

It's here in
the Rukon District that souls

come to live when they first
arrive in the Soul Society.

As a matter of fact,
it's right on the perimeter

of the Seireitei,
where Soul Reapers live.

YORUICHI:
It's the
poorest section,

but also the one with
the greatest freedom.

And it has the
largest population

of souls within
the Soul Society.

If that's true,
then where is everybody?

Hey, look at those
buildings over there.

Why do they look so different
from everywhere else?

Just forget
about that.

I know. I bet that's the Seirei,
whatever you mentioned,

where all the Soul Reapers live.
Uh!

All right, you Soul Reapers.
Here I come.

Wait!
Stop, you idiot.

You can't run up to
the gate like that.

You'll be killed!
Huh?

[ALL GASP]

[ALL COUGHING]

[COUGHING]

JIDANBO:
Well, well,

it's been
a long time

since anyone tried to pass
through the Spirit Gates

without a
travel permit.

[GASPS]

And I don't get many
guests these days.

So welcome to you,
little man.

[LAUGHING]

MAN 1:
So the intruders

have landed outside
the Hakudo Gate.

But as long as
they're on that side,

there's no need for us
to get involved in the matter.

I agree.

Because on the other side,
they all have to deal with...

[YELLING]

MAN 2:
Jidanbo.

[LAUGHING]

Whenever you are ready, give it
all you've got. And good luck.

He's a Leviathan.

What kind of creature do
you suppose he is anyway?

He's way too big
to be a human being.

He is known simply
as Jidanbo.

He was chosen from among
the very best warriors

the Soul Society has.

YORUICHI:
His task is to guard
the Hakuto Gate,

one of four entrances that
make up the Spirit Gate.

He's the guard?

If we intend to get
through this gate,

it looks like we have
no choice but to defeat him.

YORUICHI:
Yes. But that will not be
an easy task, I'm afraid.

In the 300 years Jidanbo
has served at this post,

countless invaders
have tried,

but not a single one has ever
broken through the Hakuto Gate.

Jidanbo has become a legend
of power and strength.

How in the world are we supposed
to defeat somebody like that?

YORUICHI:
That's where your intelligence
and creativity come in.

The first thing we need
to do is to have a meeting

to decide
on a strategy.

Ichigo,
let's start with--

[SCREAMING]

No! Chad!

Orihime!
Come back here, both of you!

Have you lost
your minds?

[ORIHIME]:
We're coming
to help you, Ichigo.

Hang on.
We'll fight him together.

[PANTING]

[GROANING]

[ROARING]

[SCREAMING]

He's not
only huge...

URYU:
He's insane.

You two need some
work on your manners.

What are you,
country bumpkins or something?

We're civilized
in this city.

Here are
the rules.

Rule number one,
always wash your hands

before you
sit down to eat.

Rule number two, don't eat food
that's fallen on the floor.

Rule three, battles in the city
are always fought one-on-one.

The kid with the
spikey orange hair

was the first to approach
and challenge me.

So he shall be
my first opponent.

Then I'll come back
to deal with you two.

This won't take long,
promise.

Oh.
CHAD: Orihime.

Oh?

I'm going to wait for
the right opportunity,

and then punch a big
hole through this wall.

As soon as it's open,
you aim Subaki at the big guy

through the opening.

JIDANBO:
What was that?

Don't tell me you two are still
plotting schemes over there.

Even his ears
are powerful.

ICHIGO:
Orihime, Chad,
are you there?

Ichigo, yes,
we're here.

Are you
all right?

ICHIGO:
Yeah. I'm still alive
and kicking.

We're coming to help you.
Just wait right there.

ICHIGO:
Yeah, well, here's
the thing, Orihime.

I actually want you and Chad
to just stay put,

and let me handle this
by myself.

What?

Ichigo, this is too big a job
for even you to handle alone.

ICHIGO:
Don't worry.
Just wait for me over there.

It'll be okay.

I refuse
to do that.

Yeah,
tell him.

Ichigo, we can't
afford to wait around.

Instead of wasting time
battling the guard individually,

we've got to attack together,
and get past this gate.

ICHIGO:
You're here too, Uryu?

I've been here
the whole time.

URYU:
It's just like you
to waste energy

with stupid comments,
Ichigo.

ICHIGO:
Oh, shut up.
You're giving me a headache.

Can you
defeat him?

Mm.
Probably.

URYU:
Probably?
What's wrong with you?

Don't you understand
this is a life and death

situation
we're in here?

ICHIGO:
Look, don't worry
about it, all right?

How can I not worry,
Ichigo?

ICHIGO:
Listen, I'll tell you all
an interesting little story.

Remember when I was training
with Mister Hat and Clogs?

He said it was going to take
me ten days for my Soul Reaper

powers to be
completely restored.

But as it turned out,
it only took me five days.

So what do you think I did
for those other five days?

Knowing you,
probably goofing off.

I fought with him the
whole time, for so long,

nonstop, for five
days and nights.

He and I battled each
other one on one.

ICHIGO:
I see.

And you learned all his
fighting techniques, right?

Wrong again.

ICHIGO:
So what's your point,
then?

I didn't learn a single thing
from him about fighting.

But in those
long hours...

I gained
tremendous strength,

and stamina.

[♪♪♪]

[WIND HOWLING]

You done making
speeches yet?

Look, pal,
I never asked you to wait.

So you could have attacked
at any time, right?

So you are
a country bumpkin after all.

Didn't your folks
teach you any manners?

When someone is polite
enough to wait for you,

you should always
say thank you.

[SCREAMING]

This can't
be good.

Huh?

Who are you,
spikey head?

I'm no expert,
but isn't it also bad manners

to attack before
your opponent is ready?

[GRUMBLING]

[LAUGHING]

He's laughing.

You're gutsy.
I'll give you that, spikey head.

I can't remember
the last time someone was

able to stop
the thrust of my axe.

[CHUCKLING]

This is going
to be fun.

For once, I'll be able
to give it everything I have.

Of all the intruders who have
tried to get past this gate,

there have only been two who
have come along before you

who were powerful enough
to stop my first thrust.

But that is where
the story ends.

Because neither
they nor you

could ever hope

to fend off
my second thrust.

[YELLING]

JIDANBO:
Are you still standing?

I guess I get to keep trying
my attacks on you then.

See how you
like this.

Ha-ha.
Jidan ten strike festival.

One...

two...

three...

four...

five...

six, seven...

What in the world
is he doing?

Ah!

Seven, eight,

twelve, nine, six...

Wait. I've never had
to count this high before.

But I must be at
ten by now.

So it's time
to finish this.

[GRUNTING]

[YELLING]

[GASPING]

[GRUNTING]

[SIGHING]

Got him...I think.

[♪♪♪]

What?
That's impossible.

How can you still be standing
after that attack, spikey head?

I agree.
It does seem impossible.

But he's still
all right.

[CHAD]:
Now I understand.

What Ichigo gained
from his training

wasn't fighting skills.

And it wasn't just strength
and stamina either.

Ichigo has spiritual
power far beyond that

of most
Soul Reapers.

But he has
a long way to go,

because he's still inexperienced
at wielding that great power.

CHAD:
So before, when he confronted
other Soul Reapers,

the only thing that Ichigo
was lacking was experience.

And now that
he's gained that...

Are you finished,
Gate Keeper?

CHAD:
I have a feeling.

Because if you are,
then it's my turn now.

CHAD:
He's gonna be so powerful,
it's scary.

[GROANING]

I'm not done.
I'm not done.

I just have to bring
out some more weaponry.

He's got
another axe!

[GROWLING]

My ultimate attack!

Ah!

See if you can withstand the
Jidan Banzai-strike festival.

[YELLING]

Sorry, pal.
But I'm gonna destroy your axes.

Ah!

[YELLING]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

[GRUNTING]

What-what was that?

Wow.

If I hadn't seen it,
I wouldn't have believed it.

URYU:
Ichigo just sent
that giant flying.

[GRUNTING]

[CHUCKLING]

Whoa, you almost
caught me that time.

I can't believe I slipped
and fell on my behind.

It's been a long time
since that happened.

Uh, what's that weird
look on your face for?

I bet you think you're the one
who sent me flying backwards,

don't you?
[CHUCKLING]

You should really know
better than that.

But it's typical of
a country bumpkin like you

to believe that a gatekeeper
like me

could be blown away so easily.

All I have to do is

make one more swing with my
mighty axe and--

Oh!

[GRUNTING]

Huh.

It appears Jidanbo's mighty axes
have been modified somewhat.

Wow.

A single blow,
and he got them both.

Well, are you going to say
something, or just stand there?

[WHIMPERING]:
My axes.

My axes,
ruined!

[CRYING]

Why did you have
to do it?

Why did you have to...
Why did you

have to destroy
my beautiful babies? Why?

[SOBBING]

This giant is such a big,
tough guy on the outside.

But on the inside--

He's more like
a little boy.

[SOBBING]

Look, I'm sorry about
your axes and everything.

But, hey, I couldn't let you
keep swinging them at me.

Although I guess I could have
just destroyed one of them,

and let you keep
the other one. My bad.

No,
you not bad.

Even though you're my enemy.
You care.

Instead of thinking
of only your quest,

and your desire
to get through the gate,

you're actually concerned for
your opponent and his axes.

What a good person you are,
my spikey headed enemy.

What a generous
heart you have.

Well, it's only natural
to want to console someone

who cries so much,
even if they are really big.

I know.
I'm acting like a big baby.

All that crying and moaning
over a couple of old axes.

I'm nothing but an
embarrassment as a man.

[SIGHING]

I'm a
total loser.

Huh?

A total loser!

You beat me not only as
a warrior and gate keeper.

You have defeated me
as a man, as well.

It has been 300 years
since I became

the Keeper of
the Hakudo Gate.

And in all those years,
never have I lost a challenge,

or allowed anyone
to pass this way.

I thought the day
would never come,

but you are the first man
to defeat me.

[SNIFFLING]

Therefore I, Jidanbo,
hereby grant you passage

through
the Hakudo Gate.

Huh?
Whoa, cool.

URYU:
You're allowing
all of us to pass?

That's right.

I was decisively defeated
in battle by your leader.

As a result, I have no right
to stop anyone in your group.

What?

Whoever said anything about
Ichigo being our leader?

Absolutely not!

It's no big deal, but why
are you so upset, Uryu?

So your name is Ichigo,
huh, spikey head?

That's right.
I'm Ichigo Kurosaki.

That's a pretty cute
name for someone

who seems to take himself so
seriously, don't you think?

My name is not cute!
"Ichi" means number one.

And "Go" stands for guardian.
And that's what I am!

[CHUCKLING]
Yeah, whatever.

You take care now.

I don't know why you
are so determined

to pass through
this gate.

But those will meet on the
other side are all very strong.

I'm aware of that.

Very well.

As long as you think you know
what you're getting into.

Now stand back,
and I'll open the gate for you.

[GRUNTING]
This is not going to be easy.

It's been closed
a long time.

[GRUNTING]

[GASPING]

[GRUNTING]

[YELLING]

[ALL GASPING]

ICHIGO:
Amazing.

ORIHIME:
How could anyone
lift something so heavy?

Hm?

Jidanbo,
what is it?

Why are you frozen like that?
Something wrong?

[GROANING]

[♪♪♪]

Hm. Who is that?

That is none other than
the captain of Squad Three,

Gin Ichimaru.

[CHUCKLING]

[♪♪♪]

[SINGING IN JAPANESE]

[SINGING CONTINUES]

URYU:
A mysterious wild boar
gang attacks,

and it seems that
the only one who can stop

this dangerous
bunch is Ichigo.

Ha!

And so we leave it to you,
Ichigo.

Don't let
everyone down.

ICHIGO:
Right. Vroom,
vroom, vroom.

Hey, don't run away,
you guys.
