Ep. 275: Hitsugaya freezes Halibel while Soi Fon faces Baraggan's aging Respira attack

275

Hitsugaya utilizes Hyouten Hyakkasou to manipulate weather and trap Halibel in ice. Meanwhile, Soi Fon and Marechiyo Oomaeda battle Baraggan Louisenbairn, who slows Soi Fon's reactions and ages her left shoulder until it breaks. Their counterattack fails when Oomaeda hesitates. Baraggan then releases his zanpakutou, Arrogante, and unleashes Respira, a dark cloud that decays everything it touches. The attack reaches Soi Fon's left hand, withering it to the bone and spreading up her arm. Realizing her entire body will decay unless drastic action is taken, Soi Fon orders Oomaeda to cut off her left arm before the Respira spreads further. This scene is part of the Arrancar: Downfall arc, specifically episode 10 out of 39.
