@BROTHER- Calm down bro. Take it easy. Ichigo always kicks ass when he's in that badass "high reiatsu" self confident and grim demeanor. Like when he chopped Yammy's future BBQ limb off, or when he fought Grimmjow. Which reminds me...I WANT THAT OLD MASK BACK!! The one with the ten stripes. He seemed more menacing with that one rather than the 'evil' kinda look he has now (except nowadays his eyes are almost always wide open and he can't close his gaping maw).

I guess this is the point in the story when the protagonist gains power to surpass his peers (calls to mind Naruto's sage training or Gohan getting his 'Unlocked Potential' powers).
