Dangai

断界

The corridor between the Soul Society and the World of the Living: walls of Kōryū that trap anyone who stops, and the Kōtotsu that sweeps it every seven days. Inside it, time runs far more slowly.

The ryoka cross it chased by the Kōtotsu at the start of the invasion of the Soul Society; Ulquiorra intercepts Orihime in it to take her to Hueco Mundo; and Isshin takes Ichigo there for his final training: three months in the Dangai, one hour outside, facing Tensa Zangetsu to learn the Final Getsuga Tenshō.
