why is Ichirin screwed? She only has the power to control spirits like Unzan, but seeing how she willingly went into the barrier it means she doesn't need her powers to have Unzan around her.
Most likely, if they fight, Unzan would simply be there for her.
They are more likely there to help with Byakuren's pre fight preparations
My money's on Unzan still being there, that the only thing which dissolved was his manifestation. Though, how much help he'd be to Ichirin like that apart from serving as another set of eyes is something I can only wonder about..
Heh, so this is the barrier...Somehow, it feels mysterious.*dissipates*A Switch is Inevitable*nod*We will be counting on you, Unzan.As Hijiri's partner, as a representative of Myouren Temple.
If it is melee combat, our side is at its best.
I think we might be able to win!Before entering the waiting room, we will be passing through the barrier zone.Episode 472: The organizers of the match are at fault.From the Artist's Pixiv page
