Hisagi's Shikai! The Name is...

'''Hisagi's Shikai! The Name is...''' is the two hundred nineteenth episode of the Bleach anime.

Shūhei Hisagi and Findorr Calius battle each other.

Summary
Climbing out of the rubble, Hisagi continues his battle with Findorr, who, with lieutenant-level Reiatsu, slashes him, gaining a slight upper hand over Hisagi. As the two of them take to the air, Hisagi takes another slash. As Findorr fires several Cero and Bala from his Zanpakutō, Hisagi, taking a hit to the stomach, stands hunched over, out of breath, and covered in sweat. As he continues to be thrown around by Findorr, who states they are both at the same fighting level, yet he is lagging, Hisagi asks if Findorr thinks he does not have what it takes to be a lieutenant, telling him to stop calling him lieutenant, and introduces himself again. Introducing himself in turn, Findorr says he is going to put an end to the battle.

As Findorr activates his Resurrección, Pinza Aguda, a large amount of purple Reiatsu surrounds him, and he is revealed with a large pincher on his right arm. Using Sonído to get behind Hisagi, Findorr cuts the cables of the bridge they are on, but Hisagi, dodging, Hisagi says to stop critiquing him and to save it for someone who gives a damn. As the two continue to clash with each other, Findorr says to live is to face difficult dilemmas, so the ones who survive come up with answers, and they should all strive to possess as many answers as possible.

Saying because Findorr thinks he has all the answers, he wants to shove them down his throat, Hisagi releases his armband, which, flying towards Findorr, explodes. Using '''Bakudō 62. Hyapporankan''' to pin Findorr to the wall, Hisagi goes in for the kill. Saying not to underestimate him, Hisagi fires a slicing attack, which, missing, cuts through a large part of a building in the background, prompting Hisagi to, halting his attack, remark on the attack being made of high-pressure bursts of water. As another fires and misses, Findorr, breaking free, fires several more, which, surrounding Hisagi, encase him, swirling around in a circular formation. Laughing madly, Findorr, using Sonído to reach the sphere, notices something occurring within.

Releasing his Shikai, Hisagi, dispelling the water, explains he hates Kazeshini's appearance, since it looks like it is made for reaping lives, and, attacking, cuts off some of Findorr's hair. Now seeming to have the upper hand, Hisagi, smashing Findorr through a building, slashes him, forcing him into the ground. Asking if he is afraid, Hisagi says he is. Not understanding, Findorr, breaking off another piece of his mask, states he is as strong as a captain. As Hisagi pulls on Kazeshini's chain, it slices off some of Findorr's claw. Explaining how a man who does not fear the strength of himself or his enemy is no man at all, Hisagi, thinking back to Kaname Tōsen telling him wielding a sword without fearing it is to be unworthy of the blade, notices Findorr is finally afraid, saying he is equal with him at last. As Findorr desperately fires a Cero, which Hisagi slices through with Kazeshini, the blade continues through Findorr's head. As Findorr falls to the ground, Hisagi, mocking him for being "as strong as a captain", says he is not even close.

Hisagi looks up to see the pillar falling down. Along with Izuru Kira and Yumichika Ayasegawa, who are also wondering how it happened, everyone is surprised to see a fallen Ikkaku Madarame lying on the ground by the pillar's former spot next to Choe Neng Poww.

Substitute Shinigami Work Diary
As Rukia hands her captain some papers, Ukitake, thanking her, tells her they look great. When he asks about the illustrations, Ichigo, moving forward, asks why he needs illustrations, thinking the papers were supposed to be reports. As a drawing of Ichigo by Rukia is shown, Ukitake reveals they are going to put the illustrations in the Monthly Seireitei Bulletin.
