Ichigo tries to activate his Fullbring while hiding from Mr. Pork Chop. Guess who's still the no. 1 girl in Ichigo's heart? Summary: Mr. Pork Chop transforms into a larger and less-cute form and starts tearing up the floor inside the dollhouse. Chad tells Riruka to put a stop to the training, but apparently Riruka let Giriko use his Fullbring to put some "timers" into the training. The first timer at 15 minutes is Mr. Pork Chop's transformation, and the second timer is 30 minutes after which both Ichigo and Mr. Pork Chop can leave. If either try to leave the dollhouse before the timer is up they will be incinerated by the "Flames of Time", and the timers cannot be deactivated once set. And thus Ichigo is still stuck in the dollhouse with Mr. Pork Chop. Back inside the dollhouse, Ichigo throws a button into Mr. Pork Chop's eye and gets behind some cover, but he isn't sure what he's supposed to do. Chad runs over and tells Ichigo to look into his "pride" in being a shinigami to activate his Fullbring. Ichigo holds his representative shinigami badge and thinks of all the moments and finally thinks of Rukia, and the badge suddenly activates and turns into a large, black "ban" (as in bankai) symbol. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The training setup is getting more ridiculous by the chapter, but at least Ichigo is getting somewhere his training. Trapping Ichigo (sans shinigami powers) with a giant, crazy stuff animal with no means of escape for 30 minutes... I guess Xcution must be so confident in Ichigo's ability to manifest a Fullbring they think that there is no way Ichigo will get himself killed. Or looking at the other way, if Ichigo dies during training, then he ain't worth the effort lol. It's appropriate that Ichigo's Fullbring activated when he thought of Rukia. Seeing the symbol, the first thing I thought was it's a giant ninja star. And then I thought it's the "ban" symbol in bankai (卍解). It is a swastika, but I doubt there is anything to do with Nazis here. If it is the 'ban' symbol, does it mean that the new ability will be similar or related to Ichigo's bankai? I guess we'll just have to stay tuned to the transformation sequence next chapter. From the feed of A Product of Wasted Time
