None of them are popular because of their fighting abilities. Even Ishida gained his popularity because how neat the man is with a needle and threads, and he is the strongest among the sidekicks. So when these character are highlighted in an episode for their fights, it just shows how pathetic they truly are everytime Ichigo fights a monster. It also paints the lack of development all these characters receive once the importance of their story are exhausted. Pretty sad, really. After that, they are pretty much used as fill-in to those important moments in Bleach. Bench warmers.

I'm just glad the tree-monster is finished and now they have to deal with Yammi. Hopefully someone will die here. teh-heh..
