I would hate to find out that Kensei died in that explosion when him and Wonderweiss collided. Also, I had a huge feeling that the fight with Yammy wasn't going to happen. I don't know if that was the intention of Kubo, or if he was pressed for time and just skipped it. Either way, I'm sure the next issue or 2 will clear some more things up.

As for Ichigo, my thoughts are that Hollow Ichigo has something to do with it. Maybe now that his shinigami powers are gone, there's nothing keeping him at bay within Ichigo's body. If this is a crack theory, I apologize.
