Answer: Juuken (Gentle Fist)

Ichigo refused to hand over Senna and was ready to fight it out, then The Dark Ones arrive wanting to take the Shinenju.

Ganryu retracts the spear, and as Ichigo falls he reaches out to make one last chance to help Senna but falls unconscious and knocks off her ribbon.

Answer: To force Soul Society and the Living World to collide

Urahara deduces that Ganryu's goal is to use the Shinenju and the Kyogoku to make Soul Society and the living world collide. Even though Urahara doesn't mention all the details, Kurotsuchi Mayuri explains everything in detail later.

Answer: In the river

Ichigo and Rukia set out to find the entrance to Kyogoku. Ichigo remembers Senna saying she wanted to ride the ferris wheel and it gave Ichigo an idea. Ichigo and Rukia rode the ferris wheel to the top where they seen a strange blue aura coming up from the river next to a bridge.

After rushing over they could see an image of Kyogoku from the glowing sphere. Ichigo immediately dives through.

Answer: One Thousand

Ganryu explains how after they were exiled they managed to roam Dangai and not get caught in it's absorption for one thousand years. From that very power, however, their family was cut down to six remaining members. Ganryu tells about hating Soul Society but wishing to change it, but the feeling passes and now he only wishes to wreak vengeance.

Answer: Blanks are a manifestation of lost memories.

Blanks are souls lost within Dangai. Ganryu explains this as he talks to Senna: "The total number of souls must remain constant. Blanks gather as soon as the total amount is exceeded and create their own space, Kyogoku. Basically, Kyogoku is created by the large number of Blanks. All of the souls' memories will assemble into one and return to the real world as the Shinenju." (Some parts paraphrased) At the same time in Soul Society, Kurotsuchi Mayuri explains this during the captains meeting: "Blanks do not immediately lose themselves.

They'll wonder around seeking their own memories as they disappear. That's where the problem lies. By putting the Shinenju in the center of Kyogoku and stimulating the Blanks' yearning for memories, they'll try to get close to the Shinenju by force, thus consuming the Kyogoku.

This force is great enough to make Soul Society and the living world collide." (Some parts paraphrased)

Answer: One of the worlds may vanish

After explaining on how Kyogoku will force Soul Society and the living world to collide, Zaraki asks what'll happen if they do. Kurotsuchi says he doesn't know, but If the two worlds who aren't suppose to touch, touch, one of the worlds may vanish, or Soul Society could break down thus ceasing.

Answer: Cause damage to both Soul Society and the living world

Yamamoto Genryusai Shigekuni, Chief Captain of the Gotei 13, orders preparation for the Kidou Cannon in order to destroy the 300km diameter attached to the Kyogoku along with the space itself. Ukitake speaks up saying that if it's fired both worlds could be damaged.
Right as he says this, Rukia pushes through the doors and informs that Ichigo had already went through into the Kyogoku and asks for backup. Yamamoto denies it and still commands for the cannon and says anyone inside will be killed when it's fired.
As the cannon's prepared, Rukia and Renji plan on going into Kyogoku.

Answer: Splitting him in half

As Ichigo and Ganryu's fight goes on, Ganryu almost seems equal to the power of Tensa Zangetsu. Under the pressure to rescue Senna and make it out of the Kyogoku in time before the Kidou Cannon fires, Ichigo suddenly breaks through Ganryu's strategy, cutting him in half from across the waist. Defeated, Ganryu disperses like a pile of dust. Ichigo finds Senna through the mass of Blanks forming into Kyogoku and breaks her free. With The Dark Ones defeated, Ichigo and Senna, along with all the others, race out of Kyogoku.

The Kidou Cannon fires, but Kyogoku had grown to great and wasn't destroyed and still draws Soul Society and the living world together. Senna decides to use all her lifes energy, the power of the Shinenju, to negate the Blanks' energy.

Answer: No

Ichigo looks at the graves and none has her name. Ichigo lies and tells her it is. Senna smiles, and with relief vanishes through the air returning the memories to the living world. Rukia comes up from behind Ichigo and says that since the memories are returning to the world, and that Senna never really existed, they'd too soon forget her. Ichigo says that he can still remember the sound of her voice in his heart.

Answer: True

As he grabs the ribbon, a young girl passes by him that looks and acting exactly as Senna. Ichigo looks back down at the ribbon and smiles.
