You make an interesting point, RobertG22. On the other hand Hiyori and Lisa were shown earlier in the arc noticing some unusual phenomena, which seems to hint that they might play a role in the upcoming conflict. Plus you're overlooking the fact that even if they're not interested in the events occurring in the Soul Society, that doesn't mean they have any less of a stake in the outcome of the war. It was stated earlier in the series that an imbalance of souls coming and going between the Soul Society and the living world would result in the destruction of both, hence the reason for the Quincy massacre. Simply put; if the Shinigami lose, then the Visoreds lose as well.
