These chapter made me so mad for so many reasons...

Let me start out by saying I'm glad Renji is gonna have a chance to whoop Mask's ass and show the results of his training in the Soul Palace. But... there are 20 other Sternritter. Pick any of those for him and Rukia to have landed near.

Two of the reasons that I'm mad is because Mask beat Kensei because of James saying "Go Mr. Superstar." This silly ass character should have been a cakewalk after Kensei got up and got used to his new level of the strength (Btw that arm break was brutal.) Since Kensei is down for the count (or is he dead? Rose said he "gave it his all to give me that opening" but I don't think that was enough to kill him and Mask tore Hisagi apart but he was just unconcious.) And another reason: Why the hell would Kensei OR Rose NOT hollowify? It couldn't hurt, right? I think this is a mistake on Kubo's part, like he forgot they could do that. Cause it really doesn't make sense for them not to do it at all or even think about doing it.

Rose's bankai is really artsy and dope. That took a lot of creativity from Kubo so Kudos. SHAME WE DIDN'T GET TO SEE THE FINAL ACT THOUGH.

But the main reason I'm mad is because of how overpowered these Sternritter are. A stupid character like Mask is gonna beat two hollow captains and three captain-levels because he's getting cheered on? Come on. Not that I want the Shinigami to not struggle but EVERYONE except Komamura has gotten their asses handed to them on a gold plate. When do the Shinigami start winning again?
