I disagree with the idea that Tsukishima's ability is de trop. I think it's a stretch, sure, but it's still within the boundaries of his ability's original description. Like Mohrpheus said, the whole idea behind Fullbring is that all objects, sentient or not, contain souls that can be controlled or manipulated, so it makes sense, in my opinion, that Tsukishima can do the things he's doing. Plus, the annoying part of Aizen's sudden new ability extravaganza was that he seemed to be using the Hogyoku as an excuse for ridiculous new abilities that he pulled out of nowhere, but Tsukishima's always had the same ability. It's just that now we're seeing a new, more devious side of it. Unlike Aizen, though, Tsukishima's powers have been consistent, and for that reason, I don't have any problem with them, nor do I think they're overpowered.
