Kinda lame how this chapter is basically Zommari's encounter recycled, the only exception with Rukia not being on the brink of death. As Nodt attacks Rukia with a technique that creates many eyes, and then Byakuya shows up to save her. Yeah. I wonder if Byakuya is affected by this Tatar Foras form; his eyes look unusually black. Could he have blinded himself before arriving?

Also, I'm intrigued by what As Nodt implied by fearing to lose his body completely. Good to see BG9 isn't the only weirdo among Sternritters.
