My bet... we'll get to the main fights some time in late August... maybe even Sept.

Maybe I'll have enough time by then to do some more cleaning for M7.

On to my thoughts... personally I am very much looking forward to the coming chaps. I loved the last little aside in this one referring to Kira being quiet yet fierce. I look forward to seeing if he can be as aggressive as the foreshadowing makes him seem. Heaven knows he's got cause to totally lose it.
Hisagi has always been in my top 4. I can't wait to see him in action more. I've always felt up to now he was wasted potential due to lack of "screen time." I always wanted more development of his character.
Aya... well... never one of my favs. Hopefully it'll change.. but not only is the character "shallow" he's well... not very interesting I think.
Ikkaku... oh come on... do I have to say it again?

Saving the best for last. He's just flat out wicked cool.
And so far the match ups look good too. I really like the exchange between Hisagi and Findor. Hope that one lives up to the line.
OK.. I'll stop for now.
