Chapter 2: Round Nine, Brother vs. Sister!

How come?! Why are we disqualified?!

B-Because you didn't succeed in your act.

Lieutenant Hisagi's table cloth trick was deemed disqualified in round two because he messed up too. This is the same.

I'm not saying it's a bad idea to object to the result, but in this situation, it's a bit disgraceful. Just give it up.

It's too bad for you, but not to worry. We'll make up for your loss.

I'm sorry. Ikkaku and Yumichika, I'll leave the rest to you!

Hey, why does it feel like I did something bad too?

Seriously?! It's all your fault because you completely missed!

A-Anyway, we'll now begin round five!

To summarize the results up to this point...

Round five, Third Seat Madarame and Fifth Seat Ayasegawa's "Spinning Plate Dance" versus Lieutenant Kusajishi's "Doggy Bun" resulted in a victory for the girls' Red Team.

Round six, Lieutenant Kira's "Neo Comic Monologue" versus Lieutenant Hinamori's "Eye Glass Illusion" resulted in a tie.

Too bad we lost in rounds seven and eight.

If we tally this up, the score is close, but the Red Team is losing.

It'll be fine. We still have a winning chance.

You're up next, Rukia! We're counting on you!

Of course! I'll take the victory!

N-Now for the ninth round, Rukia Kuchiki from the Red Team versus Captain Kuchiki from the White Team.

I apologize in advance, Byakuya. Although this is merely for entertainment, I cannot lose to you.

No apologies needed. Give it your best.

Please watch me closely, Brother!

That was a fine dance.

Thank you!

Uh, umm... The results are in for round nine with Captain Kuchiki's "Solo Comedy" versus Rukia's "New Year's Dance."

The winner is...Rukia!
