@RoyalGuard-Elite Fair point, I always forget about Soi-Fon (I don't like her very much), I only mentioned it because it was the only possible clue we had. About Mera, I agree 100% that she has the possibility of being his Zanpakuto due to her nature being similar to his own and her not being a kiss ass. Kubo sure does have his work cut out for him, maybe he pulled that stunt to force his publisher to allow him to expand on it rather than skip it? It is a possibility :)
