Second move of Hueco Mundo! Hitsugaya vs Yammy is the one hundred and thirty-eighth episode of the Bleach anime.

Several Espada-level Arrancar invade Karakura Town.

Summary[]

Ep138EspadaWitnessCeremony

Several Espada sit around the room to observe Sōsuke Aizen's ceremony.

In Las Noches in Hueco Mundo, Ulquiorra Cifer and Yammy Llargo walk down a long hall and reach a large door, where Ulquiorra announces his arrival. As the doors open automatically, Sōsuke Aizen welcomes them both and promises that this will not take much longer as he stands before a mummified individual with Coyote Starrk, Tier Harribel, Nnoitra Gilga, Luppi Antenor, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, and Aaroniero Arruruerie observing.

Ep138WonderweissPreHogyoku

Aizen places the Hōgyoku in a container in front of a heavily mummified individual.

With Aizen dropping the Hōgyoku into a glass container in front of the individual, Ulquiorra asks him about its awakening status, which leads Aizen to confirm that it is only half-awake and will completely awaken exactly when Soul Society expects it to. However, Aizen reveals that there is a secret which only those who have actually touched the Hōgyoku know, something he does not expect even Kisuke Urahara to know since the latter sealed it away so quickly after developing it and never removed the seal.

Ep138WonderweissBorn

Wonderweiss Margela is created with the Hōgyoku.

Aizen elaborates that a dormant Hōgyoku with its seal removed can briefly unleash its full power when it is joined with someone who possesses twice the Reiryoku of an average captain while using his power and the Hōgyoku to shatter the bindings on the individual in front of him, completing their transformation into an Arrancar. Upon being asked for his name by Aizen, the individual identifies himself as Wonderweiss Margela. In turn, a smiling Aizen asks Ulquiorra if the latter remembers the order he was given a month ago, which Ulquiorra confirms, and instructs him to carry it out with whomever he likes joining him on the mission.

Ep138LoveRuminatesLine

Love Aikawa ruminates on the line "You are already dead".

After Ulquiorra affirms this, Aizen turns to a one-armed Grimmjow and wonders if he would like to go as well. Following this, on October 29th in the Visored Study Chamber, Hiyori Sarugaki sends Ichigo Kurosaki flying and tumbling for several dozen meters across the ground with a dropkick while Love Aikawa sits with Rōjūrō Ōtoribashi and ruminates on the deep meaning of the line "You are already dead", as it indicates that the people being informed of this by the speaker have not yet realized that they have been killed, though an exasperated Rose wonders if this is meant to sound like the rhetoric of Egon Schiele.

Ep138IchigoWashesDishes

Ichigo Kurosaki is forced to clean the dishes.

As Rose requests that Love stop reading his comics before he does since the latter keeps spoiling them for him, Hiyori stands in the air before Ichigo, who has crashed into another rock formation, and questions if Ichigo knows how many times he could have been killed during their skirmish prior to sarcastically assuming that Ichigo believes Shinigami are supposed to get killed a lot, to Ichigo's annoyance. Suddenly, Kensei Muguruma announces that it is time for lunch and that whoever is last in line will be cleaning the dishes. Soon afterward, Ichigo grudgingly cleans the dishes while Shinji Hirako inquires about how his training is progressing.

Ep138LisaClaimsLend

Lisa Yadōmaru claims to have lent Ichigo an erotic magazine.

In response, Hiyori disparages Ichigo for only being able to keep his mask summoned for a little over ten seconds. When Lisa Yadōmaru suggests that he might not have what it takes and that he should just give up, Ichigo demands that she shut up since she is not even involved in the training, but Lisa counters that she is since she lent him an erotic magazine the other day, which leads a flustered Ichigo to deny having borrowed anything from her and accuse Lisa of telling lies that sound somewhat plausible. Nearby, Love assures Ichigo that it is fine since he borrows the same magazine every couple of days and Lisa asserts that she looks at it twice a day.

Ep138ShinjiPondersConstraints

Shinji Hirako ponders the time constraints of Ichigo's training.

With Ichigo declaring that he is not a pervert like they are, Lisa proclaims that she is simply really curious instead of a pervert, though Kensei observes that most perverts are curious prior to Lisa claiming that he is also interested, which Kensei denies. Watching this, Shinji ruminates on Ichigo only being at ten seconds after a month, which indicates that it will take time for him, and concludes that the Hōgyoku awakening at the end of December means they have just two more months, which they will have to hurry during. Meanwhile, at the training grounds behind the Thirteenth Division barracks in the Seireitei, Captain Jūshirō Ukitake sits on a small cliff.

Ep138UkitakeHisagiDiscuss

Hisagi joins Ukitake in watching Rukia and Orihime train.

While Ukitake drinks from a cup of tea, 9th Division Lieutenant Shūhei Hisagi walks up behind him and wonders what he is doing. In turn, Ukitake states that he was taking a break to enjoy the show and points to the ground below the cliff, where Rukia Kuchiki and Orihime Inoue are fiercely training with each other. When Ukitake explains that they have been training for the coming war for the past month, Hisagi recognizes Rukia and Orihime, and upon being asked by Ukitake if he knows the latter, Hisagi reveals that he met her in the Human World as Rukia fires Hadō #33. Sōkatsui at Orihime, who leaps forward to evade it.

Ep138RukiaRequestsOpen

Rukia requests that Ukitake open up the training grounds.

After Hisagi observes that they seem to be having too much fun, Ukitake affirms this. In the past, Rukia kneels before a startled Ukitake in his Ugendō Quarters and requests that he open up the training grounds behind the barracks so that she and a friend can train in preparation for the upcoming battle in the winter, with 13th Division 3rd Seats Sentarō Kotsubaki and Kiyone Kotetsu peering in through the doorway behind her alongside Orihime. Upon being noticed by Ukitake, Sentarō pulls Orihime into the doorway and proclaims that he has brought her to Ukitake, only for Kiyone to counter that she is the one who brought Orihime.

Ep138SentaroKiyoneArgueOverOrihime

Sentarō Kotsubaki and Kiyone Kotetsu bicker over Orihime.

When Sentarō berates her for this and offers to get Ukitake some more tea, an aghast Kiyone reminds him that they agreed to decide who would pour tea for Ukitake with janken. With Sentarō countering that the one who makes the first move wins and continues bickering with Kiyone, Orihime joins Rukia in kneeling before Ukitake and apologizes for beingso selfish after coming here so suddenly. However, Rukia admonishes Orihime for being so modest because their ultimate goal is a showdown with Aizen and it does not matter whether Humans or Shinigami are allying with them so long as those individuals have powers of their own.

Ep138RukiaDeclaresTrain

Rukia declares that she and Orihime are going to train.

Rukia pulls out Chappy's Gikongan dispenser and elaborates that she would even want the latter's help in this situation, prompting an embarrassed Orihime to assure Rukia that she does not need to explain things like this prior to Rukia pushing her head up against Orihime's and declaring that they are going to train, to Orihime's surprise. Watching as Rukia encourages Orihime to do her best, Ukitake closes his eyes and smiles. In the present, Ukitake admits to Hisagi that he was surprised when Rukia showed up to him in desperation and requested that he open up the training grounds behind the barracks.

Ep138SantenKesshunA

Orihime blocks Hadō #33. Sōkatsui with Santen Kesshun.

Despite this, Ukitake asserts that he is happy for her since she has found a friend, though Hisagi wonders if this is logical when her friend is a Human. Though Hisagi requests forgiveness when Ukitake asks him to not say this, Ukitake concludes their friendship is a fine thing even though they live in different worlds and points out how Orihime is unusual enough to potentially become a Shinigami herself when she comes to Soul Society. Down in the training grounds, Rukia fires another Hadō #33. Sōkatsui at Orihime, but the latter successfully blocks it with a sustained Santen Kesshun, causing the energy to disperse outward.

Ep138Byakurai

Orihime struggles to block Rukia's Hadō #4. Byakurai.

When a running Rukia draws her Zanpakutō and leaps into the air above her, Orihime fires Koten Zanshun at her, only for Rukia to easily evade it in midair and land next to a shocked Orihime before instructing her to not hold back because her hesitation is her enemy. With Orihime affirming this, Rukia jumps into the air behind her and fires Hadō #4. Byakurai down at Orihime, who uses Santen Kesshun again to block it as well. However, Orihime is forced to leap back after several seconds of withstanding the intense blast immediately prior to Santen Kesshun exploding with enough force to obscure the training grounds in a dust cloud.

Ep138SeireiteiCommunication

Hisagi hands Ukitake a copy of the Seireitei Communication.

Above them, upon being questioned by Ukitake about why he came here and if he wants something, Hisagi hands Ukitake this month's copy of the Seireitei Communication with the mail-order catalogue inside, prompting a surprised Ukitake to inquire about what Hisagi is doing with the publication. Hisagi laments the chaos that has ensued in the Gotei 13 with 10th Division Captain Tōshirō Hitsugaya and Lieutenant Rangiku Matsumoto in the Human World, 11th Division Captain Kenpachi Zaraki constantly sleeping, and Lieutenant Yachiru Kusajishi being currently unaccounted for.

Ep138UkitakeMusesPeace

Ukitake muses on the current and fleeting peace.

After bringing up how 12th Division Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi and Lieutenant Nemu Kurotsuchi never leave the Shinigami Research and Development Institute, Hisagi admits that he never thought a captain's duties were so difficult due to Kaname Tōsen never asking his subordinates to do anything. Once Hisagi leaves and apologizes for being too busy to continue watching Rukia and Orihime train, Ukitake muses that four months is not much time to mend the heart or build strength, which makes him wish that this fleeting peace could last a little longer. Meanwhile, in Karakura Town, an aggravated 11th Division 5th Seat Yumichika Ayasegawa screams in frustration.

Ep138YumichikaJinzenAttempt

Yumichika Ayasegawa attempts to break his Zanpakutō.

Yumichika repeatedly whacks his Zanpakutō against a nearby rock while telling it to break, and when Rangiku throws a sandal at his head and questions what is wrong, Yumichika explains that Fuji Kujaku is angering him by being snobby, bossy, and narcissistic, to the point that Yumichika does not believe he can ever externalize his spirit and would not bother even if asked. In turn, Rangiku asserts that Fuji Kujaku is just like Yumichika and claims that Haineko is the total opposite of her as a stupid, needy, and moody slob, but Yumichika counters that this is just like Rangiku, whom he considers to be incredibly vain.

Ep138IkkakuHitsugayaJinzen

Tōshirō Hitsugaya and Ikkaku Madarame perform Jinzen.

When the two of them begin fighting each other over this, Hitsugaya threatens to send them back to Soul Society if they do not shut up and concentrate prior to lamenting their inability to communicate with their Zanpakutō spirits more quietly while performing Jinzen with his own Zanpakutō next to 11th Division 3rd Seat Ikkaku Madarame, who opens his eyes to notice that the clouds are moving quickly in the sky above them. Though Ikkaku denies having said anything when Hitsugaya notices his reaction, a Garganta suddenly rips open in the air above, alerting the two of them, Rangiku, and Yumichika.

Ep138ArrancarArrive

Yammy, Luppi, Grimmjow, and Wonderweiss appear.

With the Garganta revealing Yammy Llargo, Luppi Antenor, Grimmjow, and Wonderweiss standing within, Yumichika is stunned by the Arrancar showing up earlier than expected, though Hitsugaya observes that there is no time to figure out why they have done so, as Yammy notes that they picked a good spot because there are combatants with strong Reiatsu below them. In response, Luppi notes that these are Shinigami and likely the reinforcements from Soul Society that the sixth Espada told them about, but snidely corrects himself and addresses Grimmjow as the former sixth Espada after turning to him.

Ep138GrimmjowLeavesGroup

Grimmjow leaves after realizing his target is not present.

However, Grimmjow simply asserts that the man he wants to kill is not down there and leaps away from the Garganta, startling Yammy, who is told by Luppi to let Grimmjow go since the latter is worthless now that he has had his tattoo burned off and is no longer an Espada. When Yammy realizes that the one he wants to kill is not down there either, Luppi inquires about whether he is referring to the one who cut off his arm, the one who beat him up, or the one who deflected his Cero, prompting a grinning Yammy to declare that he is referring to all of them prior to telling Wonderweiss that it is time to go and berating him for just standing there and drooling.

Ep138ResearchersEvaluateArrancar

The SRDI detects the presence of Espada Reiatsu.

Despite this, Wonderweiss does not respond and instead continues staring into space, leaving Yammy to express disappointment at this before leaping down toward Hitsugaya below with an excited yell. Sumtlaneously, in the Shinigami Research and Development Institute, Rin Tsubokura frantically alerts his fellow technicians to Arrancar Reiatsu being detected in Karakura Town, and after confirming that Gentei Kaijo has been authorized, Hiyosu demands to know what color the Reiatsu on the monitor is, prompting Rin to reveal that it is vermillion and indicates the presence of Espada, to the technicians' shock.

Ep138HitsugayaAttacksYammy

Hitsugaya attacks Yammy and introduces himself.

Back in Karakura Town, Hitsugaya attacks Yammy in a flurry of ice, forcing Yammy to partially draw his Zanpakutō in order to defend himself against the slash, and introduces himself, which leads Yammy to comment on the coincidence since he is Arrancar #10. Upon being identified as an Espada by Hitsugaya, Yammy observes he must have fought someone who likes to talk if he knows about them. Nearby, Luppi confronts Ikkaku and Yumichika, and when the latter inquires if he is an Espada too, Luppi confirms this and reveals a tattoo of the number 6 on his right hip as Rangiku sees Wonderweiss watching two birds and wonders if she can justify harming him.

Ep138ShinjiAllowsLeave

Shinji Hirako allows Ichigo to leave and confront the Arrancar.

During this, in the Visored Study Chamber, Love and Kensei restrain Ichigo as the latter attempts to leave and respond to the Arrancar arriving. When Kensei asserts that he is not ready yet and Love suggests that he let his allies from Soul Society handle this since that is what they came here to do, Ichigo counters that he has been training for this too and needs to take the opportunity while he can. Suddenly, Shinji pulls Kensei off of Ichigo by the strap of his shirt and orders him and Love to let Ichigo go, allowing Ichigo to run up the stairs and move into the sky while Kensei continues to protest this decision to Shinji, who walks away.

Ep138UkitakeOrdersDepart

Ukitake orders Rukia to head to the Senkaimon.

Meanwhile, in the Thirteenth Division training grounds, Rukia learns of the Arrancar arriving from a Jigokuchō as Ukitake calls out to her. Once Rukia affirms she just received the same report, Ukitake orders her to go to the Senkaimon in front of the division barracks while the Kidō Corps work on opening it. When Orihime offers to go with her, Rukia reminds her she does not have a Jigokuchō and will end up in the Dangai if she tries to pass through the Senkaimon, but Ukitake appears behind Orihime with Shunpo and reveals he just ordered the outer wall stabilized so Orihime can safely pass through the Dangai.

Ep138GrimmjowConfrontsIchigo

Ichigo finds himself confronted in the air by Grimmjow.

With Ukitake concluding it should take about half an hour and acknowledging Orihime is in a hurry prior to telling her to remain calm regardless, which Orihime agrees to, Rukia promises to be waiting for her on the other side and runs up the cliffside toward the Senkaimon while wondering what is happening since the Espada are showing up long before the Hōgyoku was supposed to awaken. Back in Karakura Town, before Ichigo can get too far, Grimmjow appears in the air before him and declares he has been looking for Ichigo, who claims this is his line because he wants to show Grimmjow how much stronger he has become while drawing his Shikai, Zangetsu.

Ep138IchigoPreparesSummon

Ichigo prepares to summon and don his Hollow mask.

Ichigo activates his Bankai, Tensa Zangetsu, in a burst of red-black Reiatsu, and when Grimmjow scoffs at this since Tensa Zangetsu could not stop him during their last battle, Ichigo reminds him that Tensa Zangetsu gave Grimmjow the scar across his chest, to Grimmjow's irritation, and inquires about what happened to his left arm. In response, Grimmjow claims that he threw it away because he only needs one arm to kill Ichigo, who concludes from this that he does not need to hold back. With a smirking Grimmjow exerting his Reiatsu and promising that Ichigo will die extremely fast if he does, Ichigo holds his left hand up to his face.

Ep138UraharaDecidesConfront

Kisuke Urahara decides to confront the Arrancar as well.

Mentally noting that he has exactly eleven seconds to finish Grimmjow while Hollowfied, Ichigo asserts that he must finish this within that time. Simultaneously, at the Urahara Shop, 6th Division Lieutenant Renji Abarai insists that Yasutora Sado stay in the Study Chamber and recover from using up too much of his energy while Renji responds to the Arrancar in his stead. However, Kisuke Urahara points out that Renji is just as exhausted, meaning that they both need to stay here and recover, and declares that he will be going out instead as he wields his Shikai, Benihime.

Kon-sama's Ultimate Shinigami Illustrated Guide[]

Ep138HisagiDecidesReport

Shūhei Hisagi excitedly declares that he will cover the Espada invasion as a special feature.

At the Seireitei Communication editorial department, 9th Division Lieutenant Shūhei Hisagi panics over how busy they are and demands to know if 10th Division Lieutenant Rangiku Matsumoto's article is finished yet, only to be angered upon being told that it is not. When 8th Division Lieutenant Nanao Ise brings him her division's article, Hisagi relaxes and takes it from her while praising the Eighth Division for always meeting its deadline, which Nanao asserts is only natural. Suddenly, Rin Tsubokura informs them that Espada have appeared in Karakura Town, prompting an excited Hisagi to decide that he must cover the event for a special feature, though a perplexed Nanao points out that this is not what he is supposed to do.
