Ikkaku Falls! The Shinigami's Crisis

'''Ikkaku Falls! The Shinigami's Crisis...''' is the two-hundred-twentieth episode of the Bleach anime.

Ikkaku loses his fight against Choe Neng Poww, forcing Komamura to take over his battle.

Summary
Following Shūhei Hisagi's victory over Findor Carias, the fourth pillar is destroyed. Apparently, Ikkaku Madarame lost to Choe Neng Poww and he destroyed the pillar. Suddenly, part of the real Karakura Town comes back to the world of the living. Yumichika Ayasegawa tries to get to Ikkaku, but is stopped by Shūhei and Izuru Kira. Ikkaku gets up, showing that he isn't dead, and still tries to fight. Before he is finished off, Lieutenant Tetsuzaemon Iba and Captain Sajin Komamura of the Seventh Division show up to help Ikkaku and defeat Choe, respectively, with the former using special poles that stop more of the real Karakura Town from appearing. Choe is easily able to punch Komamura several hundred meters away, and then releases his Zanpakutō, Calderon. In his released state, he grows to a massive size. As he tries to kill Ikkaku and Iba, Captain Komamura reappears and releases his Bankai. With his Bankai, Komamura is able to stop Choe's Cero and crushes him with his Bankai's sword. Barragan Luisenbarn is shown to be extremely agitated that four of his Fracción were defeated.
