Everyone assumed that the shadow that appeared over Hitsugaya so long ago was someone who wanted to help him... SURPRISE! I, for one, thought that it was Ukitake. But I guess it means that he hasn't arrived in Seireitei yet? Whatever he's doing better be worth his absence.

Ahem. Well, instead we got an awesome plot twist that also says something about FemRitters. Giselle acted fast and started making her personal army before Bambi's fight even began. While her friends are all about raw power, Giselle fights in a cleverer way. The only other Bleach villain who managed to make Shinigami fight each other to death was Aizen, mind you.

And so Hitsugaya did not escape Giselle's clutches. But what's with the Quincy uniform? No other zombie received a new set of clothes. Did Hitsugaya get special treatment because he is a captain, and therefore a most valuable asset Giselle could add to her army? Or... don't tell me Hitsugaya is one of the unknown Special War Potentials?
