1. Before the battle
14 lines
Man, it's comin' down.
(Maybe it's not Soul Reapers that are being targeted, but their high Spiritual Pressure.)
(Let me try baiting the trap.)
A-mazing! Check it out!
Now, that's what you call Spiritual Pressure!
Ahhhhh!
Gyaaaah!
Damn it! I guess it's not about Spiritual Pressure after all.
...!
A BLACK Hollow?
............
Grawwwwr!
............
(Yeah... Even if its whole body is black and the hole in its chest is covered up, going off its Spiritual Pressure, that is definitely a Hollow!)
2. Before the boss
4 lines(This thing acts like a Hollow, but fights like a Soul Reaper... This isn't gonna be easy!)
Captain Shiba?! What're you doing here, sir? You're out of your jurisdiction!
Huh?!
Look out!
3. After the battle
14 linesI sense a massive Spiritual Pressure on the move! A Hollow's... And someone else's!
Masaki, stop.
How many times do I have to remind you? We Quincies only head out after the Soul Reapers are dead.
Even then, by long tradition, we let Gemischts like Katagiri do the actual fighting.
Remember your position and who you are. You need to take good care of yourself.
Echt Quincies like us are too valuable to risk our necks so hastily.
I know that, but still...
............
Ryu, before you take any action, you always think about how it might affect Aunt Izumi...
...the Quincies, the future, and so many other things. And I admire you for that, I really do.
............
But I'm sorry. To me, "taking good care of myself" means following my heart and doing whatever I can whenever I can.
If I were to hold back and allow my "position" to prevent me from saving a life when I could have, I know my future self would never forgive me.
Katagiri, we're heading out.
