Throwback #57 - The Good, Bad, & The Ugly (The Old 12th)

Kisuke Urahara is quite the comedic shop keeper that Team Ichigo has come to know and rely on, but deep down ~ he was once a well-respected Captain of the Gotei 13 and the one solely responsible for the creation of the Research & Development Institute. Aside from his comedic demeanor, Kisuke is quite an intimidating Captain and looks truly are to be deceiving. The formation of the 12th Division as seen in the picture sets a tone of sadness since the 3 will part ways. Hiyori becomes a Visored, Kisuke is banished to the Human World for the "experimentation" of Hollows & Shinigami, and Mayuri became the twisted successor to Kisuke's legacy. A child, a comedian, & a clown ~ this was the 12th Division and looks truly are deceiving. Despite Hiyori's size, she can kick major tutelage when defending herself in the Maggot's Nest. Mayuri's imprisonment pretty much sums up what kind of life he'll led once the bars open him for newfound opportunities. Lastly, Kisuke's approach as Captain not only took Hiyori by surprise, but he proved that a line can be divided by Shinigami & Hollow. They truly are the Good, the Bad, & the Ugly.

I hope you enjoyed this week's Throwback. Look forward to more Throwbacks every Friday. Until then, you all stay classy now. BCC post will be up momentarily (sorry for delay).
