Actual...good...guys being...massacred. Well, more like Kira and a bunch of no-names. But it's still a good start. But seriously, Kira being blown caught me off guard (I'm surprised that it managed to pass the Jump graphic violence standards though [tho Bleach did contain some pretty violent stuff before, so yeah]).
The Quincies looked pretty mediocre (I mean, a little girl...really? What are you trying to pull Kubo? There are better ways to keep the diversity between character designs). But other than that everything was pretty awesome, you actually get pulled in the mood. It almost reminded me of the epic feeling the beginning of the SS arc had to it.
But even with all that said - I'm still going to prepare for an incoming letdown and back to slow-pacing by next chapter. Just in case.
5/5 for this either way.
