Tōshirō Hitsugaya, Lisa Yadōmaru, and Hiyori Sarugaki vs. Tier Harribel

Tōshirō Hitsugaya, Lisa Yadōmaru & Hiyori Sarugaki vs. Tia Harribel is one of the last battles involving a member of the top three Espada, the Gotei 13 and the Vizard. The combatants are Captain Hitsugaya of the 10th Division, Vizard Lisa Yadōmaru and Hiyori Sarugaki and the Tres (3rd) Espada, Tia Harribel. It is the last battle to occur in the Fake Karakura Town before Sōsuke Aizen decides to enter the battlefield himself. This is the last fight for Hitsugaya against an Espada, Yadōmaru and Sarugaki's first and only fight against an Espada and the last battle for Harribel.

Prologue
Earlier, Hitsugaya was battling against Harribel alone. Although it was a bit difficult, he was able to incapacitate Harribel with his Hyōten Hyakkasō. However, upon the arrival of Wonderweiss Margera and Fūrā, Harribel was freed and incompletely unharmed. Fūrā then blew away the flames that were imprisoning Sōsuke Aizen, Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tōsen causing the situation to start to look hopeless for the Gotei 13. Suddenly, the Vizard arrive. Shortly after, Wonderweiss produces another battle cry which is apparently an order for Fūrā to summon numerous Gillian Menos from its mouth. Various members of the Gotei 13 including Hitsugaya are surprised by the sheer number of Gillian Menos. The Vizard then prepare for battle by donning their Hollow masks. The Vizard tear through all the Gilians with Hitsugaya being noticeably amazed at their power, questioning just what are they. Afterward the Vizard go to aid the Gotei 13 in their battles and as Shinji Hirako is attacked by Kaname Tōsen, Captain Komamura intervenes and declares his intentions to work with the new combatants out loud. Hitsugaya questions what Komamura is thinking by declaring his intentions so loudly but admits that he has a point. Hitsugaya is cut off by Harribel who appears to ambush him from behind but is stopped by Lisa Yadōmaru and Hiyori Sarugaki, who have decided to join up with Hitsugaya against Harribel. Hitsugaya comments on how there is no time to worry if the Vizard are friends or foes, to which Hiyori agrees even though the Vizard would rather not help the Shinigami. Lisa simply states that the "enemy of my enemy is my friend" is adequate reason to join forces and Hitsugaya merely replies that there is no use in arguing with that.
