I was quite fond of this chapter, as it was different from the previous dozen of chapters. It was at the same time funny, interesting and sad. However I agree Kubo could have done it in fewer pages, the fact he didn't doesn't disturb me one bit. It increases impact. It showed Ichigo's bond with Urahara and them being happily stuffed. Because it took so much pages, it made the concerns Ichigo was feeling more serious.

As for Hikifune's change of state, I was kinda surprised, although I really shouldn't been. This is "Bleach Women Logic" we're talking about. But her contribution seemed farfetched. Kubo could have done better on that one. I guess the revelation of Sasakibe II being the creator of the Zanpaktō made up for this flaw.

Overall, a nice chapter. Keep it up Kubo! (And you too, Godisme. I like reading your blogs, although I most of the times don't fully agree with you. Sure they're kind of negative, but that shows you truly care for Bleach. Don't let them bother you. You just keep reading Bleach and let them just keep reading your interesting blogs :D )
