Very well done
I like how close this actually is to the real series and how this really could take place in Bleach. My only problems are why Rukia has to be saved by Ichigo when she could easily defeat the hollows with her kido spells or using her Sode no Shirayuki, however after watching Rukia's Day i've supposed you wouldn't want to mimic one of Bleach's major flaws being repetitive whenever people fight. (For example, Kira explaining that Wabisuke doubles the weight of anything it cuts and the affect is accumulative.)
I understand that Ichigo would fight the Arrancar (whom by the way i love the typical Arrancar "Im better than you so I refuse to take my hands out of my pockets unless its time to fight" stance.) But I don't see why the normal hollows weren't already beaten by the time strawberry-head arrived, or for that matter why normal hollows were able to shoot cero beams from their mouths.
That aside, I'd love to see the actual ending once you have the time around your schooling to finish this already amazing tribute to one of the best animes out there. Great job.
