First.

Edit: Okay, now for my actual review.

This chapter was, if anything, predictable. I think that everybody literally saw this coming - really, was Renji going to not dominate? It both amused and irked me that Rukia pointed out the obvious, "He is no match for you." Of course, Mask gets owned twice, though whether he is down for good remains to be seen.

I wasn't really surprised to see that James was still alive. He stuck out like a sore thumb; I think it is pretty apparent that he is no ordinary human, if he is indeed human at all. And apparently Mask does not even needto hear that he is being cheered on for it to take effect; I do like that he used it to heal up his eardrums. But now Renji is possibly in the position of being too badass. I'm sure that we will get more details on their training SoonTM, but not knowing them now just seems to make his power boost less believable. I mean, Renji was never really a slouch, but he's apparently stronger than an average captain at this point. I had a bit of deja vu to his fight with Jackie.

All in all, I don't think this fight is quite over yet. Something weird is up with James, and I'm hoping to see Mask at least put up some kind of fight. The guy is kind of growing on me, silly design and all.
