What I seem to find bothering in this arc is that Kubo is trying to squish too many things in one single chapter, so it seems nothing happens. He could have devoted this one to Ichigo vs Jackie and showing us Jackie's powers (didn't last week end page have a message that said "Next Issue, Ichigo's Fullbring suffers a new transformation" or something like that? What happened to that?) so that the battle seemed more substantial and exciting, instead of trying to show us EVERYONE: Orihime & Chad, Ichigo&Jackie, Riruka, Ginjou & Yukio, Tsukishima & Shishigawara, that's a lot of stuff for just 19 pages, and it's been like that the whole arc. Too many scenarios inserted in each chapter, and so, each scene moves too slowly, that's what I felt with this chapter.

BTW, I think "Dirty Boots" is a cool power name, it's original and I think it's better than "Time tells no lies" (too long and completely unrelated to what it does). The design of her clothes, particularly the cap is quite awesome, but like Mohrph, I feel like she's too Yoruichi-ish ('cept that Yoruichi is hot)
