User blog comment:Xilinoc/Ch. 610 - Mausoleum of Skulls/@comment-1604252-20141219011905

Even though the battles in Bleach have become very predictable (the hero owning the villain at first, before the villain turns the table), I feel like what makes up for that, is Kubo's style itself. It's the same thing that I think personally keeps everyone wanting to see a persons Bankai. What will it look like? What will it do? I feel like Bleach is more about style than overall amazing fights. This new technique that Ichibei used for example, the Mausoleum, just screamed badass to me and appeared very frightening.

And I don't really think this fight between Ichibei and Yhwach is all that bad. Up until this chapter, I enjoyed how the two would counter eachothers abilities and progressively increase the intensity of the fight.
