54. Bölüm: Ichigo, Rukia'yı Soul Society'den kurtarmak için infaz emrine karşı çıkar

54

Rukia has accepted her execution, and gives a request to first division captain Genryuusai Shigekuni Yamamoto to send Ichigo and his friends home after her execution. The soukyoku, a massive halberd that transforms into a phoenix, is the execution method. However, Ichigo steps forward and stops the soukyoku with his sword, and sympathetic captains Shunsui Kyouraku and Juushirou Ukitake destroy the soukyoku. As Renji arrives to take away Rukia, Ichigo defeats three pursuing lieutenants with his bare hands, and turns to face Byakuya. (Source: Wikipedia) Soul Society: The Rescue arc: (13/22)
