Humm... Somaxs... actually that's what I'm defending here... Captain Brooks seems to believe that, since Aizen can perform Bankai and can wordlessly release his zanpakuto, he can hypnotize Ichigo without us knowing it.

Anyway, I'm out of this discussion, since neither Captain Brooks nor I are willing to give up on either point of view, anyone else willing to add up to this or any other topic being discussed here can freely do so (though everyone has already pointed everything out, all that's left is waiting 'til tomorrow or thursday for the new chapter to come out...)
