That one panel looked more like a Tower-Defense battle, than a one-on-one duel :P.

So, letting one of the strongest captains in Gotei 13 fight first, was a bad idea. Heh, I guess this happens when the proper order is disturbed :p.

Still, wouldn't it be better and faster if the Quincy Emperor simply allowed Pernida to collect data/nerves from him ? Is this just a temporary evolution, or was he fearful of this ability ?
