During the Xcution arc, it seems as if Ichigo stumbled to an all-time low as Ginjo & Tsukishima were successful in duping our young hero and turning everyone that Ichigo cared for against him. Tatsuki, Keigo, & Karin & Yuzu were in shock on Ichigo's behavior towards Tsukishima, but it was all part of the plan to sway Ichigo. When it turned out Ginjo was indeed the bad guy (no surprise), Ginjo stole Ichigo's fullbringer powers and, just as he walked away, power surged through Ichigo's wellbeing ~ giving him Shinigami powers once more to kick Fullbringer @$$. It was the help of various Shinigami that are thankful for Ichigo's assistance against Aizen that the least they can do is give Ichigo Shinigami powers. As seen in the picture, Ichigo is reunited with Rukia, Renji, Byakuya, Hitsugaya, Kenpachi, & Ikkaku. Together, they've all grown thanks to their meeting with Ichigo and now, as a team will thwart the advances of Ginjo & his Xcution (Giriko, Riruka, Jackie, Yukio, & Moe). I'd like to take a moment and be in awe of this picture because it was a defining moment where the notion: "To lend a helping hand" is present. The burden of heroes shouldn't be that they work alone, but rather acknowledge their strengths and weaknesses and rely on others to help carry the load. That's the whole picture ~ to show strength, do not carry anything yourself. At your lowest, know the world has your back and that everything it going to be alright. Without a moment's hesitation, a burden was lifted from Ichigo and now, with his friends, he feels at peace knowing he isn't alone anymore.
I hope you enjoyed this week's Throwback. Look forward to Throwbacks on Fridays. Until then, you all stay classy now.
There'll be no Throwback next week because I'll be working Black Friday.
