I agree with that statement. Aizen's arcs are over, he's done. But of course, Kubo will bring him back simply because for all but two arcs thus far, Aizen has been behind everything.

One thing that ticks me off though about Aizen is he seemed to be in control of everything. After looking back, it made no sense how he planned everything Ichigo did since birth. I mean, one of his speeches was basically "Ichigo, I know everything about you, and I let you think you were doing stuff of your own will. Not so, rather, I let you kill off my strongest Espada, and a few low ranking pawns, simply for my amusement and your growth."
