Shinji's Concern

Ready? Let's get on with our training for today!

A great day for a walk.

Why'd you come with us again?

I wanted to go buy this week's Shonen Jump.

Then why don't you just go?

Don't be so mean, Ichigo. We're all friends here.

When'd I become your friend?

I'm not here to play around. I know that I have no time.

And I know I need to concentrate harder on the training.

That's good.

At least you understand.

Well then. Let's get to it.

Mashiro Kiiick!

Grh!

Boo. Why'd you dodge it again, Ichigo?

I told you! Normal people would die if they got hit with one of those!

I just got hit with one of those...

Super Mashiro Cero!!!

Ahhhh!!!

Ichigo...

You like me, don't you?

Why would you think that?!

Well, you always avoid my attacks.

I thought, maybe you just want to play with me.

I said I'd die if I got hit with one of those!

I...got hit with one of those...

This is boring! I'm starting to lose interest.

Don't worry. I'll keep it interesting.

I knew it.

Ichigo. You do like me.

That's not it!!!

Look at that. Mashiro can keep up her Hollowfied state for so long.

Compared to that, Ichigo's is so short.

Kiiick!

Huh? I thought I hit something this time.

It was me again.

Hahhhhh!!!

Dammit. She's so quick.

I'm gonna die at this rate.
