The hanetsuki tournament has attracted quite the crowd.

Byakuya

It seems to be very popular in the World of the Living, too.

Renji

Hey, Chad!

Chad

So you're here too, huh.

Renji

Yeah. You playing today?

Chad

No, I'm just helping out. But if you're here to play, then welcome.

Renji

That's right! I'll win here and start the year off with a bang.

Here we are at the finals. I see the two Soul Reapers have made it.

Rukia

I'd expect nothing less from my brother.

Renji

Captain, I never expected I'd be facing off against you here.

Please don't hold back during our match.

Byakuya

Of course. I have no intention of going easy on you, no matter what happens.

Renji

In that case, I'll come at you with everything I've got too!

Renji

Guh! I'm still no match for you.

Byakuya

You played well.

Renji

Sir! Thank you very much!

Rukia

Byakuya! I knew you'd win! You looked so fierce swinging that racket. I thought you might blow Renji to pieces.

Chad

Renji's face is covered in ink... The mark of the defeated.
