User blog comment:Xilinoc/Ch. 562 - THE VILLAIN 2 (Mask De Masculine is a Mexican luchador in a German army)/@comment-24113610-20131218222834

It was a good chapter, just cause it was awesome to see the results of Renji's training and see him kick Mask's ass(one of the worst characters ever, sorry Xilinoc) but the reason it's not great (in my opinion) is because this was expected to happen and two captains who shouldn't have lost, did. I pretty much discussed it in the last chapter review but I still don't understand if their Bankai weren't enough to defeat Mask, why didn't Rose and Kensei just flip on their hollow mask?

A lot of you are saying they must not be allowed. When Kensei was training Hisagi for Bankai, he commanded Mashiro to hollowify and Hisagi didn't debate it at all which makes me think it's okay for the Visored to use their mask.

And even if they weren't allowed, THIS IS A WAR. That the Soul Society is LOSING. They need all the powerups they can get. Why wouldn't they be able to use everything they have to their advantage?
