So, does anyone else notice the running gag that even groups that are working together don't get along very well in this series? I mean, look at the Gotei 13; the Captains don't get along most of the time and the group as a whole only bands together in the face of major adversity; the Arrancar were pretty much always at each others throats and even with Aizen (barely) around to tell them to knock it off, they still tried to kill each other from time to time; and NOW even the Quincies don't get along with each other and have started throwing shade! Just something neat I noticed and I think the only group exempt from this were the Fullbringers.

Anyways, on a more chapter-related note, I was very giddy to see guns appear in this manga and in such fine detail. I guess it kind of reminds me of the Zombie Powder days, plus I'm a pretty huge gun fanatic myself, but I digress. Seeing (at least what I believe) to be ordinary human weapons being used against Shinigami is interesting. Does this mean that an air-to-surface missile has the blast force equal to that of a Cero blast or other reiryoku-power energy attack? Just some food for thought for any fanfiction writers out there, especially concerning just how tough Shinigami really are by human standards.

I still very much dislike Gremmy's character as a whole, he annoys me quite a lot. And regarding Kenpachi's Shikai, I think it would be hilarious if it was a strictly melee-type, like Ikkaku's, and this whole time he's been using it's "powers" without even realizing it. Can you just imagine how that conversation between Kenpachi and his Zanpakuto would've went? If it is the case, maybe his Bankai just turns his Zanpakuto into a Buster Sword/Masamune hybrid.
