Renji, Oath of the Soul! Death Match with Byakuya
Ichigo continues to train for his battle with Byakuya. Renji rushes to save Rukia only to find himself confronted by his captain, Byakuya Kuchiki. Renji falters but regains his stride and insists that the will persist. Byakuya won't let him pass so the two men fight. Renji releases his Zanpakutō on Byakuya. The two men fight. Renji gives it his all but is barely able to cause Byakuya to strain. The fight ends with Renji collaping in a pool of his own blood.
Rukia senses that something has happened to Renji and is then confronted by Gin Ichimaru as she is led to her execution.
The opening and closing credits change with this episodes. The new opening theme will be around until episode 74 but the new closing theme will only last through episode 63. I'm not sure how I feel about either of them just yet.
Is Renji dead? My guess is no. I thought that Ganju was dead and he survived an encounter with Byakuya. I will be very surprised if Renji does not survive to fight another day.
This was a decent episode but it is starting to feel like the show is treading water and that the episodes are going slower than necessary.
