Only one thing I am struggling to come to grips with here. "Kubo said if he gives a lieutenant a Bankai, he thinks Yumichika would be a good choice."

If this just means that he has the strength of a Lieutenant, then all well and good, but the wording sounds off to me. It sounds like Yumichika might be promoted to Lieutenant, most likely of Eighth Division, as they have the vacancy. But that would mean that either he no longer cares about remaining in "Zaraki Division", for reasons undisclosed at this point (Possibly a falling out or his Zanpakuto's true form is revealed, forcing him to leave from shame?)

Opinions anyone?
