@ANdyphon, I can sum up what you're saying. You're basically saying Aizen is a brute force kinda guy? I couldn't disagree more. The fact that he saves actually fighting with his sword as a last resort shows how smart and cautious he is. I would do exactly what he does if I was in his position. Actually sword-fighting is more likely to kill you than Hand-to-Hand or Kido because at such a close proximity to a blade, even the simplest mistake can result in death. Aizen being cautious doesn't diminish his prowess in sword combat.
