ANALYIS MODE (delayed because finals) ENGAGE:

Super Gerard Never Die.

So, Gerard is, as I predicted, still alive, and all of the captains who wombocombo'd him last chapter are all tuckered out. Suddenly, my theory that he cannot be killed but will only become incapacitated and absorbed by Yhwach doesn't seem as far-fetched.

Cut back to Uryū and Jugo. Jugo has wiped the floor with Ishida. He also says that he's more of a combat specialist than His Majesty. However, I doubt this is entirely over, as now, without The Almighty in play, we may get to see what Uryū's A stands for.

Lastly, Ichigo reaches Yhwach, who has awakened. He tells Orihime to cover him if needed and play defense. Then, he goes up and slashed Yhwach in an identical manner to how he slashed the Soul King one and a half years ago. Symbolism.

This arc is reaching its last stages but doesn't seem to be winding down. I have high hopes that we see some new, twisty things coming along. This chapter was kinda meh, but nothing really happened anyway.

That's a wrap!
