Tokoyo Misao entered the Shin'ō Academy, drew attention by claiming the legacy of the Tokoyo Clan, and formed bonds with Rukia and his classmates. During a World of the Living exercise, a Hollow attack caused heavy casualties, leaving Misao and the surviving trainees in danger as Soul Society prepared a response.
Tokoyo Misao survived a Hollow ambush, awakened his Shikai, and entered the 11th Division before arranging a transfer to the Tenth. Years later, he trained Tōshirō Hitsugaya and joined Isshin Shiba to investigate suspicious deaths in the World of the Living.
Tokoyo Misao investigated Isshin Shiba’s disappearance, confronted the Visored, and helped save Masaki Kurosaki by using the Hōgyoku. The arc ended with Misao warning Kisuke Urahara that the Quincy king had survived the ancient war and training his Bankai with the Tenshintai.
Tokoyo Misao helped the Visored grow stronger in Hueco Mundo, became captain of the Tenth Division, and took Zaraki to Muken to face Kenpachi Azashiro. After uncovering the noble clans’ betrayal of the Soul King, Misao declared his intent to free him, while Aizen prepared to leave for Hueco Mundo.
Tokoyo Misao investigated the Soul King’s fragments, helped Ichigo and Orihime awaken new powers, and maneuvered against Yhwach and Aizen. The arc left Soul Society facing a growing space inside the Dangai as communications between worlds failed.
Tokoyo Misao and the Soul Reapers faced Aizen’s betrayal as Ichigo and his companions entered Soul Society, while Isshin’s execution and the fate of the three worlds came under threat. Aizen escaped to Hueco Mundo, Gin stayed behind with Rangiku, and Misao’s own allegiance remained uncertain.
Tokoyo Misao pushed Soul Society toward reform and prepared for Aizen and the Quincy, while training allies and confronting Xcution. After Yhwach’s forces clashed with Aizen and Ulquiorra in Hueco Mundo, the Espada launched an invasion of Soul Society, where Ulquiorra and Yammy faced the veteran captains.
Tokoyo Misao joined Aizen and Hueco Mundo in an assault on the Wandenreich as the Three Worlds’ balance collapsed and the captains entered the war. After Yhwach defeated Ichibē and Aizen battled Yamamoto, Misao severed the Riden’s connection to the Soul King Palace and took up Ryūjin Jakka.
Tokoyo Misao defeated Yhwach and helped rebuild Soul Society, but the captains sent to Hell revealed that its influence was changing them. As the Gates of Hell opened around the births of Misao and Unohana’s child and Rukia’s child, Rukia and her baby were dragged into Hell, where the infant’s cries were quieted by Gin’s Rinki.
No recap yet. An arc gets one once it has 25 chapters.
