Hello brothers and sisters, this is quite the mess, isn't it?? Still, lets go with what we see... Ichi fights with Juha, NO, rather he attacks and gets owned. Not once but twice. Quincy powers have now "awakened" within the core of his being resulting in Blut Vene and who know what else, we'll just have to see... Juha lets on that the truth behind this phenomenon lies in Ichigo understanding just WHO his mother was in order to truly grasp who HE is, which he hasn't yet... Kirge's jail was absolutely inescapable made to keep enemies in and suppress them, NOT Quincies which completely explains how Ichi got out. Juha then takes on the role of absolutely postitively bringin our boy back with him to "educate him" about everything from the very beginning, even if by force. I am sure that this is the onset of Isshin's backstory. IN FACT, I am almost sure that it was Isshin in HM who put Kirge away but we will see... Everyone has a bet placed on that one... However, this won't go away now that Kubo has decided to take it in this direction. For those that know, I TOLD YOU SO. Ridiculous theory or not, there others who can sort of predict what might possibly occur, given certain elements and variables in stories and plotlines, arriving at some stance for themselves about what shape their favorite story might take. Sometimes they're dead-on and sometimes far-off. Those most dead-on are those blessed with like thought processes similar to the creative process of the author, if even a little. Its very rewarding to see your prediction and ideas come to fruition in your favorite story as it is being written in realtime. Hate it or love it, this is our manga and mangaka. Yes, the pacing is all over the place and there are holes now in some parts of the canon that need to be filled. Yes. Yes. But still, we are now moving in a certain direction that, with this current information, is at least better that indicriminate slaughtering, disconnected battles and the unceremonious killing off of main characters.
