Ishida, You Crazy Fool . . . (Bleach 430)

I know, I know, I'm late to the party. Finals and such got in the way. Anyway, what have we missed in the world of Bleach?

It looks like Inoue made it back home OK, and she seems to be fantasizing about her visit to Ichigo's. Wow, she's got one active imagination. And a hard head. BTW, who the hell has a ring-tone that's just someone saying, "It's alright?" Maybe I'm just missing the reference here, but WTF mate? Anyway, seems as if she's been contacted about Ishida.

Meanwhile, back at the Kurosaki residence, Karin and Yuzu are eating dinner, chatting about their big bro. Karin starts talking 'bout masturbation and creeps Yuzu out, making he run away from the table in shame. As Karin begins to speculate about her bad mood, she spots Ichigo rushing out the door. Before she can stop him, he's out the door. Where's he off to?

Same place an Inoue, the Ishida reference. Looks as if Uryu called the gang to the Karakura Hospital to let 'em know what's going on. The only one who's missing is Chad, who's at work according to Inoue (damn, does everyone have a job now?). Ryuken's already patched up the young Quincy, and, of course, is kinda pissed that he called the gang in to see him in such a sorry state.

Ichigo tries to get some info out of him, all in vain. Funny, Uryu calls everyone to let 'em know what's going on, and yet he tells them nothing. Ichigo and Inoue get ready to head out, and Ichigo offers to walk her home. It's late, and nobody wants to see her get raped or anything (wow, that subject has been popping up alot lately). Ryuken, however, offers to give her a ride home, in his classic creepy style.

Ichigo runs off home. After he's gone, Ryuken reveals that he's not sure what attack his son, but it's not a hollow or shinigami. In fact, it's nothing he's ever encountered before. In fact, he's not even sure if the energy residue left on Uryu's wound is reiatsu, technically. He didn't want ot say anything in front of Ichigo, 'cause he doesn't want to get someone who's powerless involved into the matter. Ryuken has be able to deduce that the enemy is human, and is most likely after those will similar powers, suchas Chad and Inoue.

Oh crap! Chad's not answering his phone either! I certainly hope he is OK! I'd hate to have another chapter like last weeks . . .

Across town, Ichigo is frustrated with his weakness, to the point of absolute desperation. Remember that card that Juugo gave him? Well, it seems there a lot more to that than was explained. Ichigo dials the number on back, and gets in touch with the Xcution's Concierge desk, who asks him to register his number as he's a new member to the program. The concierge says that they have been expecting his call and welcomes him to Xcution . . .

Really, I was just glad to see that Ishida was OK, but once that was over, the rest of the chapter was rather dull, save a couple of moments. Ryuken's speculations confirm my worst fears, which means that there is a new breed of villain on the loose in Karakura town. And it is human. :-T Worst yet, it seems as if Ichigo might be getting more and more tangled up with them. And we still don't know exactly what Juugo is after, or what he wants Ichigo to find out about Isshin. Even still, I can't give this chapter anything higher than a 5/10. Next week's should be ballz crazy though.
