I both like and dislike this chapter for several reasons. Lets start with the dislikes. I have to agree with Lia that the whole " I AM AIZEN I AM GOD AND I CONTROL EVERYTHING" story line is really getting old. It just seems to be a bit much. Aizen said that he planned all of Ichigos battles up to this point. That would have to mean that Aizen some how magically choose the moment Zangetsu began to communicate with Ichigo, the exact moments Ichigos hollow manifested its self, and how both Urahara and Yoruichi trained ichigo. also that means that in all of ichgos fights according to Aizen he would have won no matter what (i.e Kenpachi, Byakuya) But that brings up more questions. we all ask why it seemed that both Byakuya and Kenpachi seemed and looked stronger after they were defeated by Ichigo so was Aizen controlling them during there fights with ichigo making them weaker? that would kinda make sense given what we've seen since the begining of the FKT arc. it just seems like its reaching to far for Aizen to have planned everything.

On the good side I do like that Isshin showed up. He was a character that was for shadowed long ago and everyone has been itching to see him in action. But this opens many more doors. (Kubo is smarter than us) My theory: Obviously isshin showed up to stop aizen from spilling the beans. so a short battle will ensue(Gin possibly getting involved) while ichigo( who seems to be mentally slow at the moment) finally realizes that Azien sent grand fisher to kill his mother. Ichigo gets pissed loses control of his inner hollow and goes on a rampage killing aizen.( which i think Aizen is trying to get ichigo to kill him) there by creating the key and blah blah blah. either way with in the next few chapters we will learn more about isshin past and ichigos mother.
