Synopsis
As his last day of the school term ends, Ichigo is upset to discover that no one except for Orihime, Sado and Uryū seems to remember Rukia, due to a Soul Society-imposed mind wipe. He begins his training at the Urahara Shop, first battling Ururu Tsumugiya to regain control of his spirit body. As the training enters stage two, Ichigo's soul is cut from his body and thrown into a pit, and he must try to regain his Shinigami powers in 72 hours, or risk becoming a Hollow. Meanwhile, Yoruichi Shihōin, a talking cat, offers to train Sado and Orihime to control their powers so they can join Ichigo in Soul Society.
