Product Description: Lieutenant Momo Hinamori recalls her days in training at the Soul Reaper Academy, where she first met Captain Sosuke Aizen. In the present, the letter Aizen left for her at his death scene leads Momo to believe she has identified his killer... While Ichigo and Renji train with Yoruichi to achieve bankai, Rukia recalls a bit of her own past in a dream that she believes will prepare her to face her execution--which has been moved up to the next day!

Amazon.com: Ichigo strives to achieve a greater level of power and masteryover his Zanpak-tô sword, but the focus of these episodes of Bleach shifts away from him and his friends: The viewer learns more about the Soul Reapers through a series of confrontations and flashbacks. Renji, who's joined Ichigo's side, was a fiercely competitive student: when a giant Hollow attacked his class during a training mission, he, Izuru, and Hinamori fought it off until help arrived. Hinamori is also a childhood friend of Toshiro, the child prodigy-captain. Yet she believes he was involved in the assassination of her beloved Captain Aizen. While these internecine battles threaten to destroy the Soul Society, Rukia quietly awaits her execution. But the Sokyuku, the blade that will be used to kill her, may to be more important than any individual's life. Despite the shifting focus, director Noriyuki Abe keeps the action exciting and the story moving briskly.(Rated 'Teen,' suitable for ages 13 and older: violence, grotesque imagery) --Charles Solomon

Of all the volumes of "Bleach" thus far, the twelfth is the first to focus almost exclusively on the Soul Reapers, not on our odd little band of heroes.
In fact, we get two whole episodes of solid backstory for the various Soul Reapers we've become attached to -- and in the present, the captains are suspecting each other and unearthing the roots of a very nasty conspiracy. It may start off on a rosy, mildly humorous note, but the story becomes progressively grimmer right up to the truly tragic ending.
As the three lieutenants Renji, Momo and Kira all sit in prison for different reasons, we see a flashback to their early days at the Soul Reaper Academy. They were among the elite students, and so ended up on a special field trip that Shuhei Hisagi was leading -- which went horribly wrong when a horde of enormous Hollows appeared, attacking the older trainee. They were only saved by the arrival of two very familiar Soul Reapers...
When Momo escapes from her cell, Hitsugaya goes after Gin Ichimaru, intent on killing him before Momo can do it herself. But when Momo arrives she attacks "Li'l Shiro" instead, claiming that her beloved Captain Aizen identified him as a destructive traitor. Hitsugaya must somehow subdue his hysterical friend without killing her -- just before he turns his ice sword's awesome power against Gin.
And then a shocking announcement is made: Rukia's execution is set for the next day -- and Ichigo hasn't yet reached bankai. As her ... Read More
