Whew. Ichigo's five days of fighting Urahara have increased his strength a lot. Come to think of it, they've all increased power. I think Uryu fights the current problem: Gin, captain of Squad Three. Are all the Gins in anime demonic fighters? There was this guy on Baratie.....only he converted, sort of. We sympathized, anyway.

I feel very sorry for the poor cat who's leading the gang. Ichigo is another of those people who don't listen to plans. Luffy is another. Neither dies for it. Both are the despair of wiser companions.
