After being defeated by Zaraki Kenpachi and with his sword broken, Zangetsu takes Ichigo into his Inner world, where Ichigo must win Zangetsu back from his inner devil.

He asks Zangetsu for a second chance, and gets it.

They then discover that Raku died a long time ago in an accident related to Ichigo’s younger sister, Yuzu, and that now Raku is hunted by hollows.

After defeating the hollows, Raku disappears and accepts his death.
Bleach 2×7: Stars and the Stray
After the confrontation with Ichigo, Renji is left seriously injured and unable to fight.

This sentimental episode features Renji and Rukia. (A little bit of Ichigo is thrown in to ‘ground’ the episode in the present.)
