A couple of months ago I kinda liked how Kubo seemed to be toying a bit with his "regular way" of pacing. However, at the moment I feel that things are quite a bit rushed. Am dieing to see everybody's Bankai and stuff and honestly I can't wait for Ichigo and co. to enter the stage again, but still. Rose's Bankai reminded me a bit of Byakuya's (theatrical). I think his arty Bankai totally suits his character and I like that it comes in different acts. But seriously... Muguruma "out" like that, Rose with a half-baked show and James being taken down before Rose seemed to have figured what the whole deal is about James in the first place and then *plop* Renji bumping into the scene... Kubo!!! No!
