Soul Society made the modified souls and the project was called Spearhead. They where created as anti-hollow soldiers. Modified souls had one superhuman power each such as the ability to run quickly or jump very far. The modified souls would be put into a soul-less body for battles. It was rejected because using dead bodies as soldiers had ethical implications. Soul society decided that the project should be scrapped and all current modified souls be destroyed.
Ichigo: Aw, crap! Great! We lost him, or me, or whatever the hell you wanna call him! Rukia: We're at a dead end here. Ichigo: What?! Look, we don't have time for your Soul Reaper nonsense. I have to capture him... I mean me... I mean, I'm not sure I know what I mean. But you saw it too. I mean, the riot he caused in class. I mean, that jerk used my body to take advantage of Orihime and Tatsuki and then he k...ki... Rukia: He kissed them. Yes, I know. Ichigo: (screams) Don't say that!! My life is over! Rukia: Please! Get over it already. A kiss is nothing more than a form of greeting. I fail to see the problem. I mean, in this book I was reading, it said there are far worse things that can happen to a girl... Ichigo: Oh, will you shut up?! This is a catastrophe! He came on to my classmates and what the hell kind of books are you reading?! Gah! I put years into crafting my image! Rukia: Image? So he looks and acts that way on purpose?
(dubbed version) (after a table goes through the window) Tatsuki: You son of AAAAA-DIE!!! Ichigo's temp soul: Watch it! What? All I did was kiss your cheek. Why is that such a big deal? I mean, we're not in grade school anymore. Tatsuki: SHUT UUUUUP! (smashes table at him)
(dubbed version) Yuzu: Ichigo's been acting a little weird lately, hasn't he? He's been eating like a horse for one thing, and spends all of his time in his room. Isshin: The boy is 15 now. An impressionable lad, young and in the springtime of his youth would barracade himself up in his room, for only one reason. And one reason only... (Ichigo gives Isshin a kick to the face.) Ichigo: Get off! Quit analyzing me, you pervert! Isshin: What's the matter, son, it's just because I'm your father isn't it? What's wrong with a little parental understanding? Ichigo: Understanding my ass!
(dubbed version) (Both Ichigo and Rukia are running back to the school) Rukia: Why are we in such a hurry to get back to class? Ichigo: I'm worried, I wanna make sure he's doing okay. Rukia: There's nothing to worry about he's fine. Ichigo: I'm not so sure about that, I'm gettin' kind of a bad vibe all of a sudden. (Just then screams were heard outside the school and a table was thrown out from the window from Ichigo's classroom) Rukia: So you were right...Like you were saying...we better hurry. Ichigo: Told ya.
(subbed version) (Rukia shows Ichigo the Gikongai) Ichigo: It's got "Soul Candy" printed right on here! Rukia: Oh, that's only because the Soul Society Women's League complained. They didn't like Gikongai; they said it wasn't cute enough so they decided to change it. Ichigo: All right, why is it a duck? Rukia: Shut up! I didn't even order that one all right, I asked for "Chappy the Rabbit"! Ichigo: OK, so (peering at Rukia) so you wanted one shaped like a rabbit, huh? Rukia: What's that? What did you just say?! (puts her foot on Ichigo's head) HOW DARE YOU MOCK ME, YOU IMBECILE!
(dubbed version) (Rukia enters the classroom) Rukia: (in cute voice) Good morning. Hi everyone, how are you? (smiles) Mizuiro: Oh, hey good morning, Rukia! Asano: Ah, looking lovely as always, Rukia! Mizuiro: This isn't like you; it's already third period. Rukia: Sorry, something came up. By the way, Ichigo, um, can I steal you for a second? Ichigo: Huh? What do you want? You wanna talk? Let's do it here... (Rukia punches Ichigo in the stomach.) Rukia: (sarcastically, but still in the cute voice) Oh Ichigo, what just happened? I should get you to the nurse's office. (Rukia drags Ichigo out of the classroom) Mizuiro: She uhhh...just hit him, didn't she? Asano: I didn't see a thing.
(subbed version) Ichigo's temp soul: But good lord, this class sure has some fine girls. They're all above average. I've been imprisoned for quite a while, after all. (His eyes wander some more, and stops at Orihime) Ichigo's temp soul: (with stars in his eyes) Extra large!
(subbed version) Rukia: Locking lips is just like saying hello. It is nothing major. Although in the novel I was reading the other day, even crazier things were happening! Ichigo: Don't compare that to what happened! Kissing another classmate IS something major! What kind of books are you reading?! Ah! The solid image I've built up over the years is now...! Rukia: (saying to herself) He...had an image?
(subbed version) (Rukia explains to Ichigo about Mod Souls using her drawings, and flips through them like an animation.) Rukia: Understand? Ichigo: Yeah. But your sucky little drawings make it seem like no big deal. (Rukia hits Ichigo)
(dubbed version) Ichigo's temp soul: Nice to meet you. My name is Kurosaki Ichigo. My favorite phrase is "Early to bed, early to rise"! Ichigo: "Early to bed, early to rise"? Rukia: How do you like that? Neat, huh? Ichigo: It's not neat! What is that?! He's nothing like me!
