The Princess' Decision, the Sorrowful Bride

The Princess' Decision, the Sorrowful Bride is the one-hundred and eightieth episode of the Bleach anime.

Ichigo heads to the Soul Society to stop Rurichiyo's wedding.

Summary
Kumoi schedules Rurichiyo's wedding for the following day, and Kenryū and Enryū realize that he will replace her with an imposter if Rurichiyo does not return for the wedding. Ichigo goes to speak with Rurichiyo, who reveals that she knew about the assassins' true goal and Kumoi's connection to them, and feels guilty that Chad and Uryu were injured. She escapes into Soul Society, intending to participate in the marriage to keep Kumoi in line; however, when she arrives on the other side, her eyes have gone blank and she expresses no desire to leave. Kenryū, Enryū, Rukia and Ichigo attempt to follow them, but are unable to reach Rurichiyo, as Kenryū and Enryū have been blamed for kidnapping her. On the day of the wedding, the four enter the compound to retrieve Rurichiyo, but Second Division Captain Suì-Fēng and several members of the second division surround them, and Rurichiyo does not respond to Ichigo's calls to her.
