I actually liked the flashback to TBtP, not that it was necessary, but that's just because Pendulum is my favorite arc and I die everytime I see Shinji's long hair.

I agree that the Starrk vs Shunsui fight started very bad, with the "lemme see yer Cero" thing, and I was starting to lose hope when Kyoraku threatened Lilynette, but as soon as Los Lobos came to the picture everything went back to happiness. The past two episodes have really been epic, the Cero Metralleta and Ukitake really took my breath away. It's just so speedy, so flowy, it has the perfect feeling of speed and action that this fight was supposed to have.
