ok brooks, on the episode Urahara Appears! stop Aizen! right off the bat isshin says, your getting slower, are you already at your limit?? and then aizen says yes it appears so, as a shinigami at least. then later he says to urahara that if it were not for the hogyoku, kisuke's intellect would have over powered him. your judging aizens strength based off of the hogy, thats not the case anymore. GRANTED!!!!! he's a stout dude and we dont even know his bankai, i know, but he's not as impressive as your making him out to be. the only reason he was able to go unscathed for so long was bc of how many ppl had seen his shikai so were "brainwashed" or their senses and everything was off completely. other than that i say AT LEAST 7 ppl on the show could have finished him off as far as battle strenth and speed are concerned. there is a reason that aizen came b4 yhwach.... bc he's not the villain that yhwach is. even the spider chick said he's got more to fear from the quincies bc of how much more evil they are. aizen coming back? possible. ppl flipping the crap out and just getting slayed like before? not likely now that the hogy is gone.
