I especially liked the spread on the final two pages – the old man is an unexpectedly good brawler, and I can’t wait to see what else he can do. However, one-sided chapters like this always worry me, especially when they showcase a powerful good guy.

If only Aizen weren’t such a hax character…I’d laugh (and then sigh) if this were all an illusion or something.
