That was a crazy episode. I hate that this is getting really dragged on but I hated when Aizen was interrupted I atleast wanted to know what he had to say.

Aizen is a skilled fighter. Both Renji and Ichigo could not stop him. :(
I wonder what Aizen was going to say before that cliffhanger.

Wow that good but confusing...
So do we class Urahara as good or evil? Nice to see so many small parts of the story got resolved, like why Gin didn't kill them at first and Urahara wanted them to save Rukia...

I believe that still would have happen seeing how it goes. But now I wonder more about whether Byakuya would have some more chance against Aizen.

That must be it. What is sure is that he was not on the same side as Aizen, because he wouldn't want Rukia to be saved.

what the actual fuck? Aizen stopped Ichigo's bankai with one finger and counter attacked him at the same time? I mean Ichigo trained so hard to achieve that and with an inch away from death he defeated Byakuya with it (with of course a little help from his hollow) and this Aizen is just... damn. Seems like no matter how strong Ichigo becomes someone will always be stronger than him... oh wait I forgot this is shounen.

I also found it amazing that Aizen could stop Ichigo's blade with one finger and somehow cut him at the same time.

So Rukia has that thing Urahara put her so no one else could use it to become super poweful, mmmkay, odd but explains some of the things that happened in the beginning.

I also wanted to know what Aizen was going to say before Fox boy stopped him and turned up in giant form somehow.

And am I missing something or does aizens timeline of his history creating hybrids not line up?

some serious shit happened here I don't believe that Urahara betrayed Rukia that part was right he used her, so it was all his plan from the beginning he was also responsible for Rukia's lieutenant death.

This just shows that Kubo was making parts of the story while going which is never a good idea.

Uhh.................. SINCE WHEN AIZEN IS THE MAIN CHARACTER? HE'S LITERALLY ON GOD-MODE.

And I thought about Byakuya some more, and I now understand him better — he follows the practice of "absolute justice," strictly believing that the orders of those with highest authority are righteous — identically to Akainu from One Piece.

Whatever ! ill just gonna say that Renji is being overprotective and possessive with Rukiaa! Even when fighting he really didnt let go of her... she's in his arms the whole time! AAHAHAHA so cuteee! It makes me happy lol. Now we can see if theres a romantic interest between the two. Renji holds Rukia with care and a princess hold while Ichigo holds her with one hand and at his side HAHAHAHAHAHA ...the scene with Ichigo and Orihime also sooo cute!

I went full Hinamori for Aizen when he cut the music & Ichigo along with it. I guess I'm still an Aizen fanboy after all, since my interest in this rewatch just exploded with his return.

Aizen's evil plans are revealed. Crazy that Aizen stopped Ichigo's theme with only one finger. I'm guessing his power is that as long as he touches the enemies weapon (or the enemy themself), he can make quick slashes of any area.
