And it makes a lot of us happy, including myself. But as Tinni said, it would be much better if the old Aizen were defeated, the one that thought ahead of everything, the one that was clever, always collected, always the mastermind, always so ridiculously overpowered that he needed no more than a swing of his wrist to defeat four opponents (will I ever get over the Hinamori? NEVER!). He wasn't an enjoyable villain, and I hated him to death because of that Ulquidamned smug smile and because you knew that no matter what you did, he was untouchable. Because even the most crazy attacks would cause no more than a quirk of an eyebrow.

But this new Aizen doesn't even seem worth killing because he's so drunk in power and is so different from THAT Aizen that we all wanted to see defeated so badly, that it's almost like he's a different character. He doesn't even look like Aizen anymore. He has a different personality, he uses different powers, he reacts differently, everything is different. It's a bit duh.

When Aizen first said he had embedded the Hogyoku in his body and that the Hogyoku had a will of his own I thought that the orb would become the true "mastermind", if you will call it like that, and it totally seems like this. Aizen doesn't even control what's happening to him anymore, as Tinni too said. Basically what Tinni said summarizes the whole idea. It's not that we hate Aizen getting buttkicked, I love that, but this isn't Aizen anymore. We can't even see his face now so... what's the point?
