At first look it was practically the same as the first episode of Bleach. Only a few minutes after that thought you'll realize it's not. Ichigo was seemingly taking a break from shinigami life, but not for long because
trouble always finds him quickly! Going to & through hell was pretty awesome. Fighting scenes were really nicely done and the enemies along the way were unusual and pretty challenging. Ichigo snapping in hell was a memorable thing to see. His ultimate hollow version was amazing. Also, there were some serious emotions running wild after their return from hell as well as the overwhelming guilt for destroying the gates. Going once wasn't enough, the return trip brought yet another fight with Kokuto but saving friends was totally worth it. This was an awesome Bleach movie without a boring second in it, worth watching all the way!

Masked Hell denizens appear in Karakura town so Rukia and Renji are sent to investigate the matter. After a fight with them they manage to rescue Karin(Ichigo's sister) from them but they return to hell with Yuzu(also Ichigo's sister). Having rescued Karin, Kokuto(a hell denizen himself) befriends Ichigo and they set out to save Yuzu from Shuren(the commander of the denizens that kidnapped Ichigo's sisters).
