I like the new form, if only because it is a vast improvement over Butterflaizen. Apparently these transformations are gradually causing Aizen's brain to become mush, because because he just seems to be getting stupider. He spends all of last chapter boasting about how great he is, and then the first thing he does this chapter is call Ichigo arrogant? He's just like Zommari at this point (stupid-looking transformation and all).

Something about this chapter made something click in my head though. Aizen spoke to the Hougyoku, saying that it won't "allow" him to lose to a Human. Perhaps it is hinting at the orb taking over? With Aizen looking less like Aizen than ever, it'd be great to introduce the orb as the new villain by using Aizen's final stage as its puppet - just a theory of course.
