I agree entirely though I would point out that this arc was never gonna be good. There most definately should have been some explanation of Kugo's past and his abilities, some explanation on how ichigo was even able to preform fullbring. The issue with the quick fights didnt bother me so much when it came to the Gotei 13, this is the Gotei 13 we are talking about, in no way is a human powerful enough to take them and in general fullbring wouldnt stand against them. The Kenpachi fight was largely expected its kenpachi we are talking about. In fact considering who they are and they year they had if the fights had not be easily over in their favor this wouldnt have been bleach. I still dont know whether i liked the byakuya fight, considering his skill that shouldnt have went the way it went at all, he could have ended it before it even started instead of the entire time it seeming like they were equal, thats not the byakuya we all know. But your right the whole thing seemed like a quick wrap up but had no real conclusion.
