Isshin

Well, they're putting up a hell of a fight, huh?

Ryuken

Hmph. If they're having this much trouble with such meager foes, it proves they're still too inexperienced.

Isshin

I've been meaning to ask, but what's up with the Quincy outfits? Pure white clothes like that must be a real pain on laundry day. Like my lab coat.

Ryuken

Don't you dare compare your filthy lab coat to our clothes.

Our unique way of dressing varies based on contemporary trends of the period and one's individual taste, but fundamentally its design is timeless.

We are proud that our attire is extremely functional.

Isshin

Hmm. Come to think of it, I've barely ever seen you wear yours.

Ryuken

I have no interest in showing it, either.

Isshin

Get off your high horse!

2. Before the boss

8 lines
Isshin

Huh? Looks like there's more Hollows than before. Wanna give them a little help?

Ryuken

No, I don't intend to coddle my son. If he dies today, it simply means this was all he was capable of.

Isshin

Sheesh, talk about harsh parenting. I bet that's exactly why he's going through such a rebellious phase.

Ryuken

You don't know anything about our circumstances. Mind your own business.

In fact, if you don't shut that mouth, I'll make it so you can never open it again.

Isshin

Hah. I dare you to try!

Hollow

*Roar*

Ryuken

Get lost!

3. After the battle

9 lines
Ryuken

If you want to talk about rebellious phases, I'd say your son is far worse.

Isshin

Nah, he's fine! Besides, I've still got Karin and Yuzu.

You wouldn't get it. The two of them are forever my cute little princesses!

So even if Ichigo's going through a rebellious phase, I'm not sad or lonely.

Ryuken

Then go home and see your cute princesses.

Isshin

Oh, good call! I'm on my way home, my precious daughters!

Ryuken

Hmph. Finally, he's gone.

That concludes today's lecture. Next time we'll be applying what we've learned to real-world situations, so be sure to study.

I'll take my leave now.
