Awesome chapter. Huge meteorite, everyone freaks, Kenpachi takes it down like the insane badass he is. Yhwach didn't make him a Special War Potential for nothing.

His shikai's true form suits his personality to a T: an Ax Crazy Blood Knight. Love it. I'm thinking his shikai will be similar to Ikkaku's bankai, Ryuumon Hozikumaru; pure melee with 'power' that gradually builds as the fight wears on. I think his release command is referring to the way he swallows up his opponents with his overwhelming power.
