But it is true that Ichigo is overpowered, but he's not the only one. Most Sternritters seem to be overpowered too, especially Liltotto Lamperd, who despite her child-like appearance, supposedly possess captain-level power.

You're absolutely right, but he didn't get injured at all. Furthermore he used Blut Vene unconsciously to achieve the same result as Quilge using it on purpose.

As for the Stern Ritters, all them being (above) captain level is most likely an ovestatement to intrigue us, just like the one with the Espada. And I guess it's safe to assume Liltotto is going to battle against Yachiru.
