Desperate Effort vs. Desperate Effort! Hollowfied Ichigo

Grimmjow, pleased that Ichigo is fighting with his full power, releases his zanpakuto. The two continue their fight, and Ichigo is slowly worn down by Grimmjow despite the fact that he is able to use his hollow mask longer than he previously could. Espada Tia Halibel and her Fracciones, Apache, Mila-Rose, and Sun-Sun, are seen watching the fight and comment during it. Halibel tells them that it is natural that they are afraid of Grimmjow and Ichigo, that it is more like a fight between two Espada than anything else. Orihime, frightened by Ichigo's appearance due to his hollow mask, is afraid to watch the battle, but after Nel admonishes her, she overcomes her fear and cheers Ichigo on, giving him the resolve to deal a blow across Grimmjow's chest.
