Hahaha! Seeing Guenael's full body is hilarious! Hahaha... Ahh, fwhew. That was a good laugh. Now let's move on to my opinions of this chapter.

Ho shits son! Loved this chapter! Kusajishi is beast! I loved how Yachiru is like a mini Ken-chan. She felt a "rustle", so she just fights him regardless of whether she knows he's an enemy or not. That's awesome, and I hate Guenael for calling her a "stupid beast", but I hate him in a way that makes him a good villain, if that makes sense. I like to hate my villains.

About her Zanpakuto, I don't think that it's a constant release like Ken-chan's. I think that "come out" is her release command and that it was sealed before that. If you remember Rose's Zanpakuto back in the Fake Karakura Town arc, he used some abilities with his Zanpakuto sealed. I think this is the same. She has a margin of error when she uses her sealed Zanpakuto, but when she releases it, the kids get manifested bodies, and it's most likely more powerful when she does release it. Otherwise it would be better to keep it sealed, since you can't see the margin of error. Comparing it to Tenken doesn't seem exactly appropriate either. With Tenken, the giant's sword is really the only thing that you have to worry about, since it increases the range so much that the sword in Komamura's hand won't hit you. His is more about vastly increasing the power of his sword.

Finally, Guenael is clearly not dead. The way I see it, Yachiru only cut his after image. So he had used his second form of vanishing, making him intangible, but not his first, meaning he was still visible. Isane will need to use her Shikai in order to assist Yachiru, and Kusajishi will eventually finish the bastard off.
