I liked the chapter, but... that's it. There was really nothing that special in this chapter.

We basically got two pieces of information:

That Kenpachi has unconsciously lowered his level of reiatsu throughout his entire life. And that Kenpachi "breaks" those boundries he created by almost dying, and that's why Unohana is "killing" him and then healing him.

Basically, Kenpachi's a "sealed Saiyan". Meaning he had the power all along, and the way to unlock it is the same way that Saiyans get power-ups.
