Episode 34: "BABY, HOLD YOUR HAND"

As Kenpachi Zaraki and Mayuri Kurotsuchi make their way toward the Wandenreich’s central castle, they encounter a formidable opponent: Pernida Parnkgjas.

Kenpachi charges in with brute force, but even his devastating attacks fail to deal decisive damage. Instead, he finds himself directly targeted by Pernida’s enigmatic powers. Meanwhile, Mayuri, always the opportunist, carefully observes the battle. Far from being distressed, he appears to be relishing the unexpected developments, hinting at his twisted sense of "joy" amidst chaos.
