@Tokoro:
Not sure: I checked Chad's page and it showed him with his improved "Right Arm of the Giant", which by that point Ishida was back in action. My guess is that when they reveal the Exquitas, they'll have Ishida with Seele Schneider since it won't be a spoiler anymore.
Appearances, not powers. Characters are being announced somewhat in order of when they appeared in the new arcs after soul society(byakuya being an exception.)
Chad "fought" yammi and ulquiorra. So he appeared earlier. Ishida didn't appear again until AFTER the luppi fight.
but him and ishida will both have their new weapons. They won't have their new abilities tho(seele schneider and brazo izquierdo del diablo) like in HTS4.
I predict that the 3 traitors, ishida, and shirosaki will be next, and then Im hoping for more soul society chars left out making it in(ukitake, shunsui, genryuusai, ganju, 2 more to fill up the slots)
and Kon is win. Best thing about his transformation is that his specials are the powers Robo-Hime had. Like that kinda manga detail.
and Carter, I think you failed to notice that Grimm's was blue.
At least the seemd to play differently. Ulquiorra's 3 bar super is numerous cero's raining down around him, while grimm fires a big one himself.
Dont like the falling rock thing, which is why I didn't like chad or yami's. I do like the detail to the faces this time around in the supers, since last year, their mouths didn't even move in them sometimes, while now, we see a variety of expressions.
I wish they had ikkaku call out his bankai like everyone else tho, instead of saying random japanese.
