Ichigo felt like he was previously nearly blind, and someone just gave him the best glasses and he suddenly could see the world in Ultra HD, it is a weird sensation, and only someone who uses glasses, or passed through a spiritual journey can understand.
Urahara has been his mysterious self and simply gave ”The Talk” to Ichigo. Okay, that sounded weird... Urahara basically explained that Ichigo right now a ”Simple Human”, okay even I am holding my laugh back from hearing that. But, yeah, the current Ichigo is just a simple human in terms of strength, this time he didn't act like an idiot when Urahara explained the Soul Society, Rukia execution, the less than 0.0001% chance he has of rescuing her right now, all the details really.
Ichigo calmly heard everything, while his mind was running through thousand of possibilities and things of the sort. Urahara also noticed this ”out of character”attitude of Ichigo, he was probably expecting him to act brash, scream, and hold his kimono while doing it, but none of them happened. And when Urahara offered to train him Ichigo looked strangely at him, the image of an old bearded man that talks strange overlapping with Urahara for a second there.
Ichigo easily accepted it, Urahara gave him the candy for healing, and he went to school to say his goodbyes and find and find an excuse to tell his parents about why he was going to spend so much time in a ”friends house”. His father was fairly easy, he almost instantly accepted it, his mother not so much.
Like any mother she was extremely concerned about her baby boy, so she keeps asking questions. Are you going alone? Do you know this person well? Where is it? Did you pack up your toothbrush? Do you have enough underpants?
I have the impression that Masaki knows he is going to stay at Urahara's and is just messing with him a little. But considering that both she and Isshin are under the [Kyoka Suigetsu], this could easily be something different.
Then started the training camp with Urahara, the first test Ichigo easily passed showing that even if he was just a human right now he was able to evade the little girl Ururu, Ichigo quickly showed that even if he lost his Shinigami powers the [SSS] still enabled him to survive pretty well. Uraha was pleasantly surprised by Ichigo's show, even if his technique on [Hakuda] was relatively crude and inexperienced, the boy had a strange style that quite suited him.
But it felt rather lacking... Yeah even if the [Survival Sword Style] can be used without a sword, it truly shines when you are indeed using the sword.
In the second test Urahara just threw Ichigo on a fairly deep pit, while Tessai used a [Kido] to seal him. On this test, Ichigo had around 70 hours to somehow be able to awaken his [Zanpakutou], if he failed he would become a hallow and Urahara would kill him, if he succeeded he would be able to awaken his own Shinigami powers.
Instead of keep trying to climb the pit like some idiot, or moving around, also, like an idiot. Ichigo this time just chose to calmly sit down and think. Time passed while Ichigo sat trying to remember what he could do to awaken his Shinigami powers, he thought about everything he went through... But for some reason, his last dream stuck with him.
H couldn't help but remember all those different places, all those different energies, all those different beings, all those different... everything. his mind entered a strangely serene and peaceful state while he was having flashbacks of his ”dream”.
In this strange serene state, he felt a tug, it was weak, and he almost didn't felt it at first... But soon enough, the tug grew strong enough that he decided to follow it.
Then Ichigo appeared on his crumbling inner world, thankfully he at least had some pretty long hours before things could truly become dangerous, so his inner world was rather safe for now. Thanks to his state of mind previously [Zangetsu] was able to pull Ichigo towards his inner world more easily.
I was quite interested in this turn of events, this means that Ichigo won't go through the ”Hollowfication” he did in the canon? possibly. The problem is that his Inner Hollow is also just another face of [Zangetsu], as clearly show by [Tensa Zangetsu] when it truly merged with his inner ”hollow”.
That could mean both good, and bad things, good because his Shinigami powers will have more room to develop truly, but it also means that his Hollow side will be less developed. Meh, it's an interesting development, so who cares?
Ichigo's inner world was way different right now, instead of a bunch of buildings and honestly a quite boring inner world. Right now his inner world was vast, incredible so, there is a sea of stars on a black carped in the sky glistering in a white beautiful brilliance. The ground is made of the most varied types of biomes, every biome Ichigo saw or went through was present here, from deserts to slime forest, go frozen tundras, and rocky terrains.

Different colored buildings with different colored architectural styles, from modern to ancient, from Japanese to roman, and from victorian to Arabic. It was a literal huge show of variety and wacky stuff, showing that the astral trip I sent Ichigo with the [2nd True Magic] affected him deeply. For something to even change your inner world that much, it had to be very impactful.
How I am seeing Ichigo's inner world? Btich please, anything soul related is my bitch when I activate my [Third Eye] and use my [Soul Control]. Looking into someone's inner world is a walk in the park.
