@ AldenHeathcliffe:

Are you mixing up something? "Yoruichi, who is a rather weak Shinigami herself (When Yammy is able to nearly kill you, then you're doing something wrong)"

Yôruichi kicked Yammy's ass. She hurt her arm a bit, but she didn't even break a sweat. I find the quoted part of your post illogical. And she's a far too strong character, with her skills of Shunkô, Shunpo and hand-to-hand combat, to possibly be called weak.

I don't know why Kubo have chosen to use her so little - we've barely seen her fight at all - but she's far from weak.
