Bleach: Burîchi (2004–2012): Season 2, Episode 4 - Kesshû! Gotei 13-tai - full transcript

Kûkaku Shiba's plan is to catapult Ichigo and the others over the walls of the Seireitei with her very own creation, the Flower Crane Cannon.

[♪♪♪]

What is that thing?
It's huge.

KUKAKU:
You can quit worrying about
getting through the wall.

With this launcher, I'll get
you all into the Seireitei

through the air.
BOTH: The air?

Or my name's
not Kukaku Shiba,

fireworks expert
of the Rukon district.

Fireworks?

That's right.

Koganehiko, Shiroganehiko,
raise it up now.

[SHOUTING]



Heave. Ho. Heave. Ho.

Heave. Ho.

Hey, what's going on?

I don't understand this.

It's the floor.
It's-- It's going up.

SHIROGANEHIKO: Ho. Ho.
KOGANEHIKO: Heave. Heave.

Ho. Ho. Ho.
Heave. Heave. Heave.

Heave. Heave. Heave.

SHIROGANEHIKO:
Ho. Ho. Ho. Ho.

Look.
The ceiling, it's opening up.

Is this for real?

[GRUNTING]

So did that scare you kids?

This is my one and only
enhanced fireworks launch pad.



And that's the
flower crate cannon.

Ugh. That was my line.

Sorry.

[SIGHS]

Huh. Left you all speechless,
didn't I?

I know that you're supposed
to be a pyrotechnical wizard,

but I'm still not
fully convinced of it.

The idea of shooting us up
into the air is completely--

Ugh!

What's this?

It's a reishukaku
or spirit core.

Place your palms on it and
concentrate your spirit energy.

Hm. Like this?

Can someone show me how to
concentrate my spirit energy?

Huh. Any Soul Reaper should
easily be able to do that.

So you should know how to use
your spirit energy to do this.

Well, actually, he's the
substitute Soul Reaper

I was telling you about earlier.

And he can't use
spirit energy at all.

Yeah.
I can see that.

Uh, you mean like this?

This kid is
completely hopeless.

Ganju, show this
amateur how it's done.

Hey, give it here.

Why you!

So, kid, you want
to fight for it?

Yeah. Come on and take it
if you think you can.

But I, for one, would
rather die right here

than to learn it from you.

Stop this right now,
both of you.

BOTH:
I'm sorry.

[MOANING]

What's that?

This here is the cannonball.

Cannonball?

Now pay close attention,
everyone.

You may think that the only
thing guarding the Seireitei

is that barrier,
but you are dead wrong.

It isn't nearly that simple.

That barrier is made from
a stone known as Sekkiseki.

It's rare, even in
the Soul Society.

This is a fragment of it.

As you can see, it completely
repels spirit energy.

Therefore, it's impossible
to smash through the barrier

with spirit energy alone.

Even cut into a small
piece such as this,

it emits a wave that
breaks down spirit energy

from all sides, which means
that the Seireitei

has a spherical barrier
which surrounds them,

protecting them not only
from the sky above

but even below the ground.

So you see,
that's why we use this.

Enough show and tell. I'm tired.

KUKAKU:
Suck it up.

This cannonball is a special
hard spiritual partition

penetration device I invented.

In other words,
if all four of you combined

put your spirit energy
into this Reishukaku,

you can create
a temporary cannonball

that can break
through the barrier.

Then I'll use
the flower crane cannon

to shoot that cannonball
into the sky,

and it'll punch a hole
straight through the barrier.

Any questions?

Eh, well, I was--
All right then.

Now, take them to the
underground training room

so they can practice
concentrating

their spirit energy.
BOTH: Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes.

Get them out of here.
Yes. Yes. Yes.

What do you think you're doing?
Put me down this instant.

Get your hands off
of me right now.

Listen, you guys.

If any one of you
loses concentration,

then you'll blow up on the spot.
What?

ORIHIME:
Where are we going?

Practice hard.

ICHIGO:
Hey,
you never mentioned that.

Oh, yeah, thank you.

[EXHAUSTED]
You're welcome.

Now, get your ass down
there and help them practice.

All right.

But sis, are you seriously
going to help them?

What are you
talking about?

I'm against it.

Helping a Soul Reaper
is something we shouldn't do.

I mean, think after what
happened to our brother.

Listen, sis, I--
Ganju,

what did I tell you?

Didn't I say you were never
to speak of this again?

But sis.
You have your orders.

Now go.

Listen, you must never show such
a weak face in front of them.

Understand?

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

This is the first time I've had
to wear my lieutenants badge.

Yeah,
I hear what you're saying.

I think this is probably
the first time I've ever

been asked to wear
it like this myself.

All lieutenants are
to put on their badges

and wait
in conference room two.

This certainly
is becoming interesting.

Tetsuzaemon and Renji.

So Momo, are you
the only one here?

Uh, yes, I think so.

RANGIKU:
The lieutenants are scattered,

working hard
all over the Soul Society.

It might take about half
a day for everyone to gather.

And to make matters
even worse,

my captain can't be reached
at all.

This is starting to turn
into somewhat of a problem.

What to do? What to do?

So then, just who exactly
is Rangiku's squad captain?

You know, young Hitsugaya.

Oh, not that little genius.

And I thought I had it rough.

Renji?

Yeah?

You haven't seen
Captain Aizen around, have you?

Uh, no.

I-- I haven't.

I'm worried.

He's been acting
strange lately.

I ran into him
just this morning

and asked him if anything was
wrong, because I was concerned.

But he didn't answer.
I don't know what to do.

[SIGHS]

It'll be all right.

It's nothing to worry about.

My guess is that
even this summons

will be canceled
before much longer.

In your personal opinion,
should Rukia die?

What's happening,
Captain Aizen?

Just what the hell
is going on here?

SHIROGANEHIKO & KOGANEHIKO:
No. That's wrong, Ichigo.

It's not right. No. No.

How many times do
I have to tell you?

[GROANING]

Do it. Do it. Do it.

[CHATTERING INAUDIBLY]

Come on, Ichigo.
Try harder.

It's supposed to be nuahh,
right?

Nuahh.

ICHIGO:
Help me out here. Is it working?

I can't tell.

Sorry, brother.

I've decided to help
that Soul Reaper who came to me,

a Soul Reaper not unlike
the one who killed you.

If you were still alive
and saw me not helping them,

you'd be the first to scold me,
you who loved Soul Reapers

all your life and also
died as a Soul Reaper.

SHIROGANEHIKO:
Now, you, if you please,
Orihime.

Good.
You're doing just fine.

KOGANEHIKO:
Now you, Uryu.

SHIROGANEHIKO:
It's narrow,

but the overall shape is there.
KOGANEHIKO: Hm.

I'll bet that the shape
most likely stems

from the boy's
own personality.

Chad,
you are up next.

Ah, this one is a bit unstable,
but very powerful.

And now,
it is time for Ichigo.

Ah!

That's terrible.
Just worthless.

What is that
supposed to be?

It is obvious that you have
absolutely no talent for this.

You have no talent at all.

Shiroganehiko!

ICHIGO:
How many times do I have to
tell you I don't understand?

You, teach me some
useless pointers. Damn it.

[HEAVY BREATHING]

Excuse me, boss man.

I'm sorry to interrupt
what you're doing,

but dinner's ready.
Huh.

Hey, guys, listen up.

Why don't we take a break?
Dinner's ready.

I bet you guys are starving.

I suppose we could eat.

You didn't get to eat
in the Rukon district, did you?

Well, those guys
over there don't know

how to use their spirit
energy, so they're not hungry.

So why don't you three go eat?

Okay,
but what about--

Never mind about me.

Go on ahead and eat.

I'll join you guys
when I'm done.

All right. If you're sure.
Then I guess we will.

[GRUNTS]
Come on.

Let's go and eat,
Orihime.

Oh, Uryu.

I'm not hungry at all yet.

So I'll just hang
out here for a while.

[STOMACH GROWLING]

Hey. Okay. Busted.

I'm fibbing. Maybe I am hungry.

Oh, this is embarrassing.

Orihime, go on.

It's okay.
I'll be fine.

I know that.

It's just that I want to
stay and practice some more.

Besides, I'm not really
that hungry. Really.

Orihime. Please.

Do it for me.

Okay.

I'll do it, just because
you're asking me so nicely.

[GIGGLES]

I'm going to go then.

URYU:
Orihime,
are you going to join us?

ORIHIME:
Okay. Let's go eat. I'm starved.

[ICHIGO GROANING]

Damn it.

So she that important to you?
Huh?

That girl,
the other Soul Reaper.

You know, the one
you came to save.

Not really.

Huh.
Give it here.

I know
why you're doing this.

It's got to be because
you promised to save her.

Right?
No. That's not it.

Then it's money.
That's got to be it.

She promised to pay you
if you saved her, huh?

No way. How the hell
am I supposed to use

money from here in my world?

Then why the hell are
you so damned determined?

I owe her.

You see, she saved my life,
and I haven't repaid her yet.

She gave me her power in order
to save me and my family,

even though she just met me.

Because of that,
she was captured.

And now she's about
to be executed.

I don't want to turn into
some kind of deplorable guy

who would just turn
his back on her.

Understand?

What now?

Give it here.

What are you doing?
Give it back to me.

I've got practice myself.

So cover your ears.

I don't want you
to hear my technique.

I'm going to do some
work on an old trick

that I developed for myself
a while back.

Visualize this.

Draw a circle inside
your mind

as dark as possible
and as heavy as possible.

Then imagine yourself jumping

right into the center
of the circle.

This is a basic
imaging technique

that allows you to get in
touch with your spirit energy.

I could cry it's so easy.

And I didn't even
have to practice it.

Well, sorry about that.

Besides,
since you totally suck,

I doubt you'd be able to
do it like I can anyway.

Good luck.

Hm. Talk about a ham.

That guy is one bad actor.

What an idiot.

Draw a circle inside my mind.

Thank you for the meal.

Yeah.

URYU:
Uh. Orihime, are you done?

Oh, yeah, really. I'm full.

[STOMACH GROWLING]

See. Really.

My stomach is full after all.

You really don't
have to go that far.

Just forget that I ever asked.

Uh, actually, I was going to
take the leftovers to Ichigo.

URYU:
That's right. He still
hasn't had anything to eat.

[EXPLOSION]

KOGANEHIKO:
Ah! No.

It's breaking apart.
Oh, no.

The great Kukaku arm
is going to fall.

Oh, no. Please don't.

It's Ichigo.

URYU:
Let's go.

What the hell's going on?

Ganju, I'm talking to you.

Sis, I'm so sorry.

Huh?

It's just that I
only showed him once.

I never thought it would
turn out like this.

His spirit energy is strong,
but he's out of control.

You stupid idiot.

Concentrate your spirit energy.

I did it.

Great.
You did it, Ichigo.

Yeah.

You ignorant dumbass.

You've got to stay focused.

[ICHIGO SCREAMING]

What are you? Freaking deaf
or freaking stupid?

Remember, I told you
if you don't concentrate,

you're gonna blow up.
Yes.

Yes, you did.

Next time just be
sure not to do this.

You're as guilty
as he is, schmuck.

Both of you, no food tonight.
ICHIGO: But why?

GANJU:
Come on, you can't lump me
together with him.

KUKAKU:
Shut up.

Any more complaints?

GANJU & ICHIGO:
Okay. We understand.

YAMAMOTO:
So you're here.

Captain of Squad Three,

Gin Ichimaru.

ICHIMARU:
An unexpected summons.

Tell me. Should I be appalled
or impressed?

And look at this
distinguished crowd.

The captains who control
the Soul Society,

all here just for me.

Or am I mistaken?

I see the captain of Squad
13 is conspicuously absent.

What's wrong?
Did something happen to him?

He's not feeling very well.

Oh, not again.

I hope he gets well soon.

MAN:
Quit joking around.

You know that's not the
reason you were summoned here.

It is my understanding
that you went and played

with that Ryoka by yourself,
didn't you?

And I also hear that you failed.

Explain yourself.

You should have no trouble
dealing with

four or five Ryokas
without backup.

I see. So then you're saying

that they survived.
ZARAKI: They what?

Well, I was under the
impression that they were dead,

but I guess my instincts
are starting to fail me.

Stop all this monkey
business right now.

There's absolutely no way
that captains such as us

could fail to instantly tell
whether an opponent's spirit

has ceased to exist.

Oh, no. Not again.

Old fools caught up
in stupid bickering.

Can you not see?

Your petty accusations
seem to imply

that I let him go on purpose.

That's exactly what I'm saying.

ZARAKI:
Shut up, Kurotsuchi.

Can't you see I was the one
who was talking to him first?

Or perhaps you'd rather
be done in by me.

KUROTSUCHI:
What did you say?

So stupid.

Well, what do you know.

Tempers are running high today.

Stop!

Enough of this foolishness.

I think the true
reason for which

you have been summoned here
to stand before your peers

has been made abundantly clear.

It is the fact
that you acted alone,

that coupled with the fact
that you also permitted

the target to escape.
So then,

how do you defend
your actions, Ichimaru?

I cannot.

Well, you see,
there's nothing to say.

I made a simple mistake.

I'm not going to stand here
and make excuses.

I'll accept whatever
punishment--

Just a minute, Ichimaru.

I have something I want
to ask you first.

MAN [OVER P.A.]:
Red alert. Red alert.

Intruders in the Seireitei.

All squads get into position.

Repeat. Red alert. Red alert.

Intruders in the Seireitei.

All squads get into position.
ZARAKI: Those Ryoka.

It can't be.

Ichigo.

[♪♪♪]

Four students and one cat
are going to Seireitei.

Got it. I'm off, sis.

Attention, everyone.

The cannonball will
be shot very soon.

Take your seats now or else.

ICHIGO:
Okay. Now, I'm really worried.
