    Not only does the modified soul situation gets cleaned up, the modified soul itself becomes a staple within the cast as "Kon", using the body of a cute stuffed lion. What I liked about this episode was that it already felt like Kon was a regular within the series; some chemistry has already developed betwee him and Rukia and Ichigo. The second half is basically an entire episode itself; Ichigo ponders on about the death of his mother. It's still shrouded in mystery though as he claims she has been killed and says that he was the one that killed her. What makes this episode even more interesting though is how it ended; within Soul Society, a man is ordered to investigate the whereabouts of Rukia. Makes you really want to watch the next episode badly!moreless

    Title:"Kon-nichiwa from a Stuffed Toy"
    "Nuigurumi kara KONnichiwa" (ぬいぐるみからコンにちは)

    Original airdate:November 16, 2004 Ichigo confronts the modified soul possessing his body, but is then distracted by an emerging hollow. Together, they defeat the hollow. When Kisuke Urahara (the merchant who sold Rukia her gigai*) comes for the "defective" merchandise, Ichigo takes the modified soul back. He places the modified soul into a stuffed lion plushie and names it "Kon". Meanwhile in Soul Society, another Soul Reaper is sent to track down Rukia, who has spent too much time in the living world and needs retrieving.

    While Ichigo is fighting with the modified soul Rukia gets a message on her spirit phone about a nearby Hollow. Ichigo and the mod soul then defeat the Hollow together. Shortly after this happens Urahara removes the mod soul from Ichigo's body. Instead of getting the mod soul destroyed Ichigo places it in a stuffed animal and gives it the name Kon. Kon is saved by ichigo. I loved this episode since kon is so funny and Ichigo and Rukia save him and puts him in a stuffed lion body. all in all i give this episode a 10/10 cool. bleach rocksmoreless

    This episode was great. sad that the Mod Soul was so cool and yet they made him into a lion plushie. Poor Kon, speaking of which he was not even aloud to pick his own name. Mod did sound better though it wasn't that good either. Well he does get to use Ichigo's body to get around while Ichigo's in soul reaper form and goes off to slay some more hollows with his Zanpakuto. It is real sad what happened to Ichigo though. To lose your mom at such a young age has to be rough. Overall this episode was bove average and I hope Kon may be aloud to get more air time than people think.moreless

    This episode started with the fight between Ichigo and the mod soul, but they quickly stopped it, so that they could defeat a nearby Hollow. Later, Urahara came and ejected the mod soul from Ichigo's body, trying to get it back.
    But, Rukia said they were satisfied with the product, 'cause they had fixed up and all, and they had become friends (sorta)
    So, they had to find a place for the mod soul, and they ended up with a stuffed animal toy to put it in, and he got alive. He was all cool, and hilarious when he reacted to his body. And he was always acting totally idiotic and hilarious.
    A great and funny episode! 9.4/10moreless

    • First apperence of: Ishida Uryuu, Kon in the stuffed toy lion form.

    • When Ichigo puts the Mod Soul pill into the stuffed animal, Rukia is standing in front of Ichigo. Yet, when Kon starts yelling at Ichigo, Rukia is suddenly behind Ichigo.

    • Ichigo talked to Mizuiro and Keigo from his bedroom window. So when Rukia jumped out to go to school, Mizuiro and Keigo should have seen her, but nothing was ever said about it

    • When Ichigo looks at his watch he sees the date "TH 16-JUN". A quick view of the calendar would put this in the year 2005. The other nearby dates for Thursday June 16th's would be 1994 or 2011.

    • Kon: And just where did you come up with that name for me?
      Ichigo: We've named you Kon 'cause it's short for Modkonpaku, that's another name for a mod soul like you.
      Kon: You're not the boss of me and I want a say in this! Please call me Mod instead that sounds like a cooler name, doesn't it? Plush Bod Mod now that's a snappy name!
      Ichigo: No way.
      Kon: Why not?
      Ichigo: Cause you're right. Mod does sound cool, but there's nothing cool about you.

    • Mod Soul: Ichigo Kurosaki, I challenge you to a no holds bar duel.
      Ichigo: Count me in.
      Mod Soul: Hey wait, when did you grow big? Or did I somehow shrink? What happened? I'm in a super cute plush toy with soft paws and no muscle! This isn't fair!

    • (Ichigo is dreaming about his mother's death.) Ichigo: (mumbles in his sleep) No, please don't go...

    • Ichigo: Rukia, listen... I know I have serious responsibilities as a Soul Reaper, but I was wondering... could I maybe take tomorrow off? Rukia: What?! Did you just ask me for a day off? Are you crazy?! There is no way! You act strange all day and then you spring this on me? What are you thinking?! Ichigo: It's the anniversary... the anniversary of my mom's death. No... actually... it's not just the day she died. It's the day she was killed.

    • Orihime: (thinking Why is it... why is it that the rain makes me want to cry? Sometimes I wish I were the rain so that I could touch people and feel their feelings and maybe connect with their hearts. Maybe then, I might understand his pain.

    • Orihime: Hey! Good morning, Ichigo! Ichigo: (cheerfully) Huh? Oh, hi Orihime! How's it going? Michiru: What's up with Ichigo? He never says hi or acts friendly towards anyone. It's really kinda strange. It's like he's in a good mood or something. Tatsuki: Michiru, what's the date today? Michiru: Huh? Oh, it's June 16th. It is. Tatsuki I knew it. Sometimes Ichigo hides his feelings. He's not in a good mood. He's acting nice, but he's really tense today. It's nothing to worry about. I know why he's acting like this. And I'll bet you, tomorrow, Ichigo's gonna skip school altogether.

    • (Yuzu walks into Ichigo's room just as he's closing the closet door, hiding Rukia and Kon.) Yuzu: Like, what are you doing? Ichigo: (nervously) Me? What am I doing? I'm doing yoga. You know, stretching myself in new ways. I saw this pose on a bus bench. Yuzu: I think the bus in your brain has been gone for a long time.

    • Ichigo: I can't have you starting the day that wound up. Make like a real stuffed animal, and shut up, Kon!

    • (dubbed version) (Kon (in Ichigo's body) explains the existence of mod souls and the Soul Society's involvement.) Kon:...You know what I've come up with? (looks at Ichigo) I exist and I should live my life the way I want to! That's why I shall not take a life.

    • (dubbed version) Ichigo: (holds the life-less stuffed toy) Got any other ideas that might work? Rukia: THAT should have worked. (Ichigo swings the toy around) Mod Soul: (first reaction) That hurts nimrod!

    • (dubbed version) Rukia: (to Ichigo) I must say, you look awfully silly yelling at a pill in public.

    • (subbed version) Rukia: What's with the racket! I can't even change my clothes in peace. (After getting down from the closet, she heard a squeak sound and looks below, seeing Kon looking under her skirt) Kon: Nice angle! (Thumbs up!) I'm glad I'm a stuffed animal! (Rukia is pissed and steps on Kon harder) Kon: Arrgh! Stop it! My cotton's coming out!

    • (subbed version) (Michiru and Tatsuki talk about art drawings of "My Future Self", and it's Orihime's turn). Orihime: Tadah! Its maximum speed is 380 kilometers per hour. It shoots 20,000 degrees C flames from the mouth and special destructo-beams from the eyes! Michiru: It's not supposed to be like that, Orihime! That's not what they wanted! Orihime: What? What? Tatsuki: D-do you want to have detention again?!

    • (dubbed version) (Orihime is pondering at the window) Orihime: If...If I was the rain, would I be able to connect with someone's heart, as the rain can unite the eternally separated earth and sky?

    • (subbed version) (How Kon got his name) Kon: What the hell is with the name "Kon"?! Ichigo: Saying "kaizou konpaku" (modified soul) every time is annoying. "Kon" is good enough for you. Kon: That doesn't mean you can call me "Kon!" It makes me sound like an idiot. I know! Why don't you call me "Kai" from the first word, "kaizon"? "Kai" sounds nice! Call me "Kai"! Ichigo: No way! Kon: Why not? Ichigo: Because "Kai" sounds kind of cool, and I would be pissed off if you were called that. Kon: You ***
