this is what really turned me off to bleach. I mean, how could kubo not have known how these battles would play out when he first introduced the characters? and how could he not have known that he had no intention of killing off any good guys in the entire arc? it's really aggravating. the captains didnt show off any particularly new moves or training that would account for such a thing. a few of them didnt even go bankai. I guess the only explanation is that the vasto lordes didn't live up to their myth that had been circulating throughout SS but that's just dumb imo.
