Does the final arc take place a year after the Lost Agent arc? I'm only asking because some people think the arcs only take place a month apart. But Isshin clearly states that Masaki died 9 years previously. In the first arc it was stated that her death took place 6 years earlier. The time skip between the war with Aizen and the Lost Agent arc is 17 months (approximately 2 years). That would add up to only 8 years. So another year would need to pass for Isshin's math to add up.
