Well at least we don't have to sit through a training arc for Ishida. I wish Chad would get a similar power up so he would be useful.
I didn't get the last Quincy alive bit... are the rest of them dead? What about Uryuu's dad?
This would have been a great arc if Kubo ever bothered with character development.
He did it so Ichigo couldnt attack him and would go berserk if any of the other captains laid hands of him.
