White was prideful & dismissive, while secretly being as caring of Ichigo as Tensa displayed.
I've retrospectively wondered about White weakening Ichigo.. Maybe it was a protective measure as Ichigo would've died, had Ulquiorra considered him a threat. 👌🏽

I just thought about this. If Kisuke's Kido didn't work on Aizen, they would've been screwed. How was he so sure?
Tessai being prior head of the Kido Corps & relative/more proficient than Aizen & Kisuke likely came in clutch. As a test dummy & co-creator.

One of the hardest hitting strategist dialogues of all time for me.. 🙌🏽 🔥

These moments are great because they show us Aizen always watches his back & that although we got focus on Momo & Shunsui for both cases, Aizen was sewing seeds everywhere for his alibis too. I wonder if Urahara became the way he is partly due to this..

They adapted Roka's design really well. They lifted her pose from the novel & I'm a fan of the white gold combo. 👌🏽

Kubo said he held back because he knew certain things would not make it to anime. I could feel it to. During TYBW things took a turn. He dialed up the violence & our side wasn't as safe as before. Now imagine he was given no censorship from the start..

Kubo had Yamamoto also grab Yhach's foot like how he had previously grabbed onto Aizen. Meant to establish a clear difference between the 2. Yhwach is a ruthless General who is in war mode; no bs, no time wasting. Not yet. 👌🏽

A really cool detail we touch on was how Yama tried to teach Kenpachi before & only stopped due to others forbidding it. Knowing Yama's past, I love how he likely wasn't intimidated & accepted Kenpachi; having subjugated many such beasts before..

Yui and Kensei sharing the same hat. They get along fairly well.
