User blog comment:Xilinoc/Ch. 599 - Too Early To Win, Too Late To Know/@comment-14244059-20141002221709

It makes me oddly proud that, out of all of the epithets that have been revealed, N is still the only one without a canon character designated to it. As it just so happens, I made an OC for the Sternritter and chose N. I feel so proud :'D

Anyways, is it just me or is Lille pull out a giant, hairy rifle? That's certainly... interesting. I'm a bit disappointed that the Royal Guard are getting kicked around like their nothing, so far. I expected more from the "greatest warriors in Soul Society." I hope Senjumaru stumbles back from that blast and goes, "that actually hurt. But now feel the wrath of my Zanpakuto!" and we get a real fight.

Speaking of which, why the hell didn't she immediately whip out her Zanpakuto like Tenjiro did - after she had defeated Nianzol, I mean. You'd really think that using your Zanpakuto - the most powerful weapon a Shinigami has in their arsenal (most of the time) - would be a priority when facing an enemy of overwhelming magnitude, who has all but destroyed the main fighting force of your army. Tenjiro is RIGHT there, they could've attacked together. Actually, now that I think of it, why didn't Tenjiro step up and attack alongside Senjumaru?! The Royal Guard have the worst battle plan ever...
