Lol now you have a reason to be mad/cranky/irritated etc. I know what a figure of speech is.. I'm just saying that you seem to be riding on this manga; like it affects your whole week.

Don't forget that the feeling with one manga a week compared to one episode will be different.. when the episodes catch up to this point; I'm sure you will enjoy it since 2.5- 3 chapters = 1 episode. Everything will flow much more smoothly and you will get into it with the music and actual feel of the episode.

Well according to Aizen; Ichigo should be stronger than he currently is, so him being useless at this point is no surprise to us viewers if that is his choice of words.
