The Substitute Soul Reaper Files

This concludes the report on the Substitute Soul Reaper and the world of the living.

What are you writing, Rukia?

It's a report on the Substitute Soul Reaper.

Substitute Soul Reaper, huh... Hey, you're writing about me?!

Appointing a Substitute Soul Reaper is very unusual for the Soul Society.

It was decided that I will keep a record about you, as well as the world of the living.

So, I'll be writing about your activities to the Soul Society for a while.

A record on the world of the living? I get why you would need to report about me, but what would you write about this world?

There are different cultures and customs here compared to the Soul Society.

My records will be a useful resource for those who are appointed to work in the world of the living in the future.

Ohh. Now that you mention it, you didn't even know how to use a straw when you first got here.

Th-That was a long time ago!

Well, I guess that's fine then.

A report, huh... Makes me a little nervous.

Don't worry about it.

Just keep doing what you normally would.

You better not write something weird about me.

That would be up to you.

*Hollow!!!* *Hollow!!!*

A Hollow.

Looks like it. Let's go, Ruki-

Wait a minute.

Huh? What is it?

Avoid using the Soul Reaper Pass to transform into a Soul Reaper as much as you can.

When your spirit leaves your body, there might not be someone around to take care of it.

We're in my room right now, so we should be okay.

What if your sisters come in here?

They'll panic when they see that you're on the floor and not breathing.

I guess you have a point.

You may not always find a safe spot to transform into a Soul Reaper, either.

Try to stick with using Gikongans as much as possible.

Fine.

Well, you heard her. I'll be counting on you Kon.

Leave it to me!

You're not going to cause any trouble, right?

Of course not!

I've always acted just like you would, haven't I?

Yeah...right.

Are you done chit-chatting? We have a Hollow to stop!

Alright, alright, I'm coming.

See you later!

There! Hollows!

Let's get this over with.

Are you going to write a report about this battle, too?

Of course. The report is about your activities as a Substitute Soul Reaper, after all.

I'd better not screw up then.

That's the spirit.

But don't worry, even if you do screw up, I'll write the report with fun little doodles to show how it all went down.

That doesn't exactly put my mind at ease.

And done!

It looks like that's the last of them.

Yeah, now let's go home and...

Aaahhhhhhh!!

What the?

That scream... Are there more Hollows left?!

I can't believe this! What's wrong with you?!

Over there!

That woman seems to be furious about something.

I'm sorryyyy!

I'm so sorry! I really am! It wasn't on purpose!

Kon?! What the hell are you doing?!

I told you not to cause any trouble!

I-Ichigo? It was an accident.

Don't give me excuses. I caught you out of the house red-handed.

No, not about leaving the house!

I was just going on a walk. Then I just happened to trip...

I reached out to regain my balance, then accidentally grabbed onto the forbidden handful.

It's not my fault!

Forbidden handful?

Gee, how lucky you are.

Riiiiight?

You little...! You're not apologetic at all!

Aaaaggghhhh!!

That guy's talking to himself... What a creep.

What are those two doing?

I suppose I'll write this in the report as well.
