My God, Urahara was GOAT af fuck here. Final villain bruh.
Fucking, lol! Seems like Shinji will be completely irrelevant once again. Why Kubo, why?
But the MVP of this chapter was Askin. Badass end for a badass character; best death for the best SR. No mad laugh, no scream full of denial/cursing, no transformation into chicken/cow/flamingo/bacteria and generally no OOC character degradation. Instead he goes down with a bang as even mortally wounded he shows respect for his opponents and a sense of humor while pulling one last move that puts Urahara and Grimmjow on the verge of death. You will be missed, Mr. Best-Bleach-antagonist-after-so-many-years.
Goodnight, sweet prince.
