Well, nothing notable happened. Things were only set up for the future, which is what people are likely excited about.

Kenpachi killed 3 Stern Ritters (with one that needed to die, because of pure unoriginality), and is now fighting the Vandenreich Leader.

Yamamoto deliberately tried to hunt down Sasakibe's killer, which happens to be Driscoll Berci. Given how personally he took Sasakibe's death, this is an event highly anticipated by many readers.

Ichigo continues sink in despair and tries get out of the cage. This is something people is tired of seeing, as if he's not going to make progress, it's only a waste of manga pages. Though, as some people have already pointed out (and I noticed too), Ichigo may have started cracking the cage.

So yes, nothing happened for this chapter. However, enough happened to set up for future chapters. But as Kubo has proven to us many times before, we can't say for sure what he'll focus on in the very next chapter.
