These new bad guys are kinda confusing. One has an Arrancar style mask fragment yet a Quincy cross which doesn't make a bow but something way different (a trend I'm feeling the others will share). Plus they have weird shadows that can transport them places. They seem to dwell in a pocket dimension which is icy? Not to mention their apparent leader makes it seem like they think they're the good guys and the Shinigami are the bad guys. Meanwhile we don't know exactly what they are. Well at least it's nice to see Kubo start from scratch again. Also the translation I read led me to believe that Sasakibe was trying to say they can use Bankai but I'm going to reserve judgement until a better translation comes out. He could have said they can seal Bankai but until a Captain confirms that they have lost their Bankai we won't know.
