My thoughts about this chapter... color spread - Ichigo's hood resembles his old hollow mask. lol And he has a black scerla. O.o That arrancar-looking quincy lunches a missle towards Ichigo. The weapon of modern quincies, along with the heavy artillery and a troll face. lol Ichigo goes bankai... again <_< Is the mentioned quincy using kido? O.o Good to see that Ichigo's getsuga remained black in bankai. Was Sasakibe just hit by a lance-like arrow? O.o This chapter has many German motifs. The masked guys are undeniable quincies.

Some notes... "KrigsErklärung", the chapter title, means "declaration of war" in German Vanden Reich - Kingdom/Empire/Realm of Vanden (?) in German "Vanden" isn't actual German word. It seems to be a pun of Dutch "van den". "Van" means of/from, while "den" is an adjunct for male. → Vanden Reich - Realm of Males (lol) That means there are no females among quincies. O.o
