Episode 105 Title: "Kariya! Countdown to the Detonation" | "Kariya! Bakuhatsu he no KAUNTODAUN"
Hitsugaya returns from his battle with Koga. Ichigo and his friends are currently using Hitsugaya's office as a temporary base. Hitsugaya tells his subordinants to search for Koga's body and give him a proper burial. Meanwhile, 8th division lieutenant Nanao Ise tells Commander General Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai about the Bount crest. The next day, Rantao confronts Kariya with a kidō gun, which she effectively uses to Kariya's surprise. Soon after seeing the Bount crest emblazoned on Kariya's chest, Rantao has a flashback, revealing additional details about the Bount's past. Rantao initially hid the Bount away in a cave city, while returning to Soul Society to request protection for the Bount, however, Central Room 46 calls the Bount a failed experiment and orders them wiped out. The revelation is that the child that Rantao rescued in the shinigami purge of the Bount cave was none other than Jin Kariya. Ishida feels the spiritual power of Rantao and goes off to find her, knowing that Kariya is there too. The episode ends as Rantao is seen getting hit by one of Kariya's attacks.
