Honestly I don't care if Hisagi gets bankai or not. To me he is a background character used to fill time until a more interesting character shows up, or a redshirt used to show how badass the newest enemy is.

This isn't Hisagi's fault. He's had glimmers of being something worth reading at times. Its just that Kubo seems to have a hard time narrowing the focus of his manga so Hisagi gets lost in the shuffle. Too many characters.
