Yeah I don't understand why a lot of people believe those three are weak fodder. Neither Rangiku, Momo, Shuhei, Izuru, or Tetsuzaemon could defeat them (I consider Ayon to be them, because he was created with their flesh and sprit energy, so technically he is them to an extent), and Yamamoto took three separate attacks to defeat Ayon (one fire blast and two slashes) and a single attack to defeat the three of them, which in the end did not kill them (although the only likely reason why they survived was due to being healed by Orihime). I know four attacks does not seem like its a lot, but Yamamoto is currently the strongest soul reaper to ever live and has had thousands of years of experience in battle and he still could not kill them, that's kind of a big deal. If they truly were fodder, then they should have just burst into flames without Yamamoto even staring at them. Plus people forget that Kirge did not even give them enough time to go into their resurreccions, yet the three of them still managed to defeat many Vandereich members. Those three are definitely not weak, they were simply outclassed.
