[Side text: Are you sure you aren’t going to help......?]
Hirako: Right, then! // Let’s forget about him and leave, yeah?!
Hanatarou: That’s right! // We need to go and help Captain Kyouraku out as soon as...... // Wait, whaaaaat?! // H...Hold on a minute, Captain!! // Are you really not going to go and back up Captain Kyouraku?!

2
Hirako: Why the hell should I do that? // We ain’t got a minute to waste here.
Hanatarou: Th...... / That’s true, but...!
Hirako: ............... // ......Then let me ask. // Nanao-chan, what do you think?
Nanao: I will return. // The rest of you, go on ahead.
Hirako: That’s what I figured. // Then let me ask one more thing. / If Ukitake were here, what d’you think he’d say?
Imaginary!Ukitake: If Kyouraku says he’s fine, we should trust him.

3
Imaginary!Ukitake: Let’s leave this to him and move on.
Hirako: An’ that’s the right thing to do. // If you got it, then let’s go. // Oh... // And while we’re at it... // Let me point out one more thing.

4
Hirako: If it were old Genryuusai standing there... // He’d be tellin’ us to go on ahead, an’ all. // Bearing the weight of his men’s lives...
[Bleach 646]

[The Second Eye]
Hirako: ...is a Captain-Commander’s job.
[Insert text: Because they believe in him......!!]

6
Barro: Very careless. // Did you think close combat was the domain of swords alone?
Shunsui: I did, actually. // That’s why you’ve already been sliced, see?
Barro: !

7
Shunsui: I was aiming to cut the whole arm off, you know. / I suppose my approach wasn’t quite up to scratch. // Interesting...

8
Barro: This gun’s name is “Diagramm”.
[TN: I’ll give you three guesses what that’s German for.]
Barro: And though a gun, it is my “bow”. // I form it myself from spirit particles.
Shunsui: I see. / That’s why you can fight even with it snapped... / ...and you can reform it even if it’s destroyed. // However... // You’ve forgotten the rules already.

9
Shunsui: If you take your eyes off me, even for an instant... // ...and let a shadow enter your vision... // Everything you see from that moment on... // ...is my empty silhouette. // Doesn’t it take you back?

10
Shunsui: Back to your childhood? // The days when the shadows in the corner of your eye... // ...seemed to be home to untold terrors?

11
Barro: Ohh... // Oh dear...

12
Barro: That’s the third time.
Shunsui: ?!
Barro: Whenever I have both of my eyes open... // I can tap into the true power of “The X-Axis”. / Which is to say... // My gun’s bullets will penetrate your body... // And my body... // ...will penetrate your blade.

13
Shunsui: I see. // So when you open your eyes, logic no longer applies to you?
Barro: That’s right. / In that instant, there is no weapon in this world... // ...that is capable of killing me. // His Majesty... / ...permits me to open both of my eyes only for the briefest of moments... // ...when I find myself in a terrible crisis in battle. // This is because if I were to keep both of my eyes open... // It yould be unfair to the sinners I face.
Shunsui: Oh, I see... // Then maybe you’d like to...you know...close them again now...?
Barro: However. // In the exceptional case that I am forced to open my eyes three times in a single battle... // I am permitted to keep them open for the remainder of that battle.

14
Barro: I am... // ...the final Quincy upon whom His Majesty bestowed his power. // I am his ultimate creation. // Closer to God... // ...than any other man. // For one such as myself... // ...to be forced to open his eyes three times... // ...is tantamount to heresy.

15
[no text just eyes]

16
Lille: Jiliel.
[TN: Glossed as “God’s Judgement”, I presume this is supposed to be an angel name, but it doesn’t match any actual angel name I’m aware of. I guess it’s just an invented one. Unless it has some actual basis in Hebrew/Arabic (in which case I’ve probably got the spelling completely wrong, it could just as easily be “Ziriel” or something), but I doubt Kubo could manage that.]

Shunsui: (I can’t move............)
