In this weeks episode Lethan & Nomi discuss how Tsukishima's power works and who it would impact, how Ginjo's character deisgn changed (Aizen Style) when he turns and how devestating it must have been for Ichigo to go through what he went through. :( Our poor wee boy.

Anime Episode 349: "Next Target, The Devil's Hand Aims at Orihime!"

437, Manji Break (Note: This chapter is nameless in the Weekly Shonen Jump due to controversy over what the word "Manji" translates to. The symbol itself is that on Zangestsu’s hilt, but because of the way this symbol was co-opted the western world, the name was probably left out of the Weekly Shonen Jump and release, and then left in Japanese in volume releases.)
