Niyama, the "#1 Zanpakuto Creator" has drawn his sword, and stepped up to challenge the entirety of Juha Bach's elite guards. Despite their confidence, the Sternlichter quickly realize the true power of Squad 0 is not to be dismissed so easily. However, despite Niyama's seemingly effortless dispatching of the Sternlichter, at least one is still holding on. Does this mean trouble for Squad 0, or is this just a minor stepping stone in Niyama's path of carnage as he dispatches the invaders?
I'm loving that this chapter finally picked up the pace a bit, and brushed aside a lot of the newcomers. There is also the issue of Sternlichter "D," who's powers are starting to reveal themselves. I'm not sure if this just means that he is unable to be cut down, or if this is just the tip of the iceberg, and he'll have more to show in the coming chapters. However, I'm still expecting some cheap trick to restore the Guards, so they can all use their full power and take on the entirety of Squad 0.
