I'm surprised. I expected this chapter to blow, based on spoilers, but Kubo delivered and I applaud him for it. Let's just say Bambi died experiencing what she loved - something exploding inside of her. In all seriousness though, am I the only one who rather despises Falcor-grandfather-dog? As Sajin is regressing into a permanent wolf state, he seems pleased, even happy that his own grandson is being afflicted by this. And what's worse, he can't speak, he can't fight, he has to spend the rest of his life as an actual animal, forever plagued by the realisation that he failed. He only defeated one Stern Ritter, he couldn't avenge Yamamoto, he never even made it to the castle's doorstep. And he has to live with this. For the rest of his life. While also realising that he, like Tousen, succumbed to revenge and paid the price. Irony at it's finest.

And then there's Bambietta, who, thank you God in Heaven, is finally dead. I liked her at first. Then her she just become insufferable, and her power was revealed, and I was just rooting for Sajin all the way by that point. But even I have to have a bit of pity for her here. Her 'friends' obviously just assimilated her, quite possibly with Sklaverei and we all know how painful that is. Reminds me a bit of Grimmjow, only he ate just a part of his comrades, and it was more to save them (and boost his own power) than anything else. What the heck happened to Kubo this week? Either way, nice review!
