Ichigo

Can you please explain to me why the hell I'm back here again?

Kugo

Even though you complain, you still came in. Thanks for that.

Ichigo

Shut up.

I'm here to get my Soul Reaper powers back. I thought by now, we'd be starting some kind of training-type thing at a much bigger place than this.

Riruka

That's half right! Tonight, we're gonna start your training right here!

You should be thrilled! This cute dollhouse is where you will be doing your training.

Ichigo

What?

Riruka

Don't ask questions. I'll show you it soon.

My Fullbring power is called Dollhouse.

You see, my special ability is that I'm able to move people or things into and out of objects that I love or I think are cute.

Okay, now you can go in. I permit you to.

Ichigo

Me, go in there? What're you...

Oof! Ow...

???

............

Ichigo

You're kidding...

Riruka

Well? Isn't it cute?

Ichigo

Yeah, right. Cute, my ass! What the hell is that?!

Riruka

Defeat him!

Ichigo

What?!

Riruka

I'm saying, defeat him by fighting him! That's your training.

He's not strong. You can take him. It'll be easy! If you can use Fullbring, that is!

Ichigo

What?!

???

Huahhhhhhhh!!!

Ichigo

Huh?! Wahhhh?!

Riruka

How pathetic. Fight him. Stop running away! Act like a man!

Ichigo

I am a man! But I barely know what's going on and you expect me to just fight this guy?!

Start by explaining how I got so small! Answer me, will ya?! How in the hell did I get shrunk down and end up stuck in this toy dollhouse with an angry pig?

Riruka

I told you. That's the power of my Fullbring. My Dollhouse Fullbring.

Fullbring's the power of love. It's a part of me. It's my ability to draw out the maximum power from something that I really love.

For instance, a guy like Ginjo really only likes that pendant of his. So he turns that into a weapon he can use when he fights.

But I'm not anything like him!

I have many things that I love and cherish, and I look forward to finding even more things to love.

I'm positive that I'll continue collecting things that I love, and my greatest wish is that I'll die smothered by those things!

My Dollhouse Fullbring has endowed me with the ability to give permission to things that I love.

That way, I can move them in and out of my favorite objects.

That's what just happened. I gave you permission, inviting you into my favorite dollhouse. So you were transported there and made to fit.

Okay, that's enough explaining for now.

I think it's about time for you to defeat him.

Ichigo

Ahhhh!!!

Riruka

Why are you freaking out so much in there? It's simple. This is put together so that you'll be able to defeat him if you're able to use Fullbring.

Ichigo

Help me out! At least give me a clue here. It's insane for you to expect me to use Fullbring without even giving me a hint about how to use it!

Riruka

All of us were able to use Fullbring from the moment we were born. So I wouldn't have any clues or hints for you. You must be really stupid or something. Wake up, stupid!

???

Hey! That's enough already, kid. Stop your running away and start fightin' right now! Come on!

Ichigo

Huh?! Wait, that thing is talking?!

Riruka

Of course it talks! Inside of Mr. Pork is this big scary dude that I abducted from this neighborhood!

Ichigo

Wait, you abducted who from where?!

Mr. Pork

Listen, if I don't beat you to death within 15 minutes, she told me that this spell I'm under will become permanent...

...and I'll be stuck here for the rest of my life as a ridiculous plushy!

Ichigo

So he wants to kill me 'cuz you told him a lie?!

Riruka

Enough! That's all the advice you'll get 'til you're done! Give me a shout when you're finished.

Ichigo

Hey! Hold on! That's not fair!

Mr. Pork

Stop running away! Let me kill you already!

Ichigo

(This running won't get me anywhere. I've got to think of something quick!)

(She said Fullbring's the ability to draw out the maximum power from something a person loves.)

(But it didn't seem to me like Ginjo loves that pendant he wears.)

(If I had to describe how he feels about it, I'd say it was more he was attached to it.)

(Which means that for me to be able to use Fullbring, I need an object that I feel as attached to as he does.)

(There's gotta be something like that for me...)

(Think! There's gotta be something! I don't even have to be attached to it. Just something I always have on me...)
