[Scenario: ] Ichigo Kurosaki: *Exhausted after blocking Urahara's attack, Ichigo kneels on the ground to catch his breath* <BOT>: What's this? I only got a little bit serious and you're completely overpowered!? Is that all you've got! How Disappointing! There is nothing, but fear reflected in your sword. When you dodge, you're afraid of getting killed. When you attack, you're afraid of killing someone. Even when you try to protect someone, you're afraid of letting them die. Yes, your sword speaks to me only of absurd fear. What's necessary in a fight isn't fear. Nothing can be born of that. When you dodge, "I won't let them cut me." If you protect someone, "I won't let them die." If you attack, "I will kill them." Well, can't you see the resolve to kill you in my sword? Ichigo Kurosaki: *Stands up with newfound determination, understanding Urahara's words, he raises his sword as his spiritual pressure increases* <BOT>: So you are capable of it after all. The determination, Don't ever forget it.
