The spoiler summary confirms one thing and one thing only for me: Ichigo's boycrush on Ishida is alive and well.
He didn't need to do any showing off until Ishida made his entrance and now Ichigo's all "I gotta do my vizard thing now! Hey, Ishida, watch out for my reiatsu!"
Ah Ichigo. You gotta love him. Or slap him.
Or if you are Ishida, you hang out with Mayuri, your dreaded family nemesis who scarred your childhood and mutilated your grandfather, as long as you can to give yourself a little more time to mentally prepare for the frustration so you won't be tempted to shoot Ichigo before you shoot the enemy.
As a side note, I'm going to be brave and be one of the few who will admit that I don't like the color page. I adore Rukia. I adore snarky Rukia, goofy Rukia, soft and warm Rukia, snuggly Rukia, grouchy Rukia. I do not adore this botoxed, contact-lens-wearing, collagen-lip-infused Rukia. My Rukia does not need such affectations. EVER. So Kubo better bring back the real Rukia because she was fine before. In fact, she was better.
I do like the jewelry and the coat and the little flower in her hair though.
