oh man Rangiku better have a bankai instead of Omaeda or I will be pissed with you SHE’S BEEN A VICE-CAPTAIN PROBABLY LONGER THAN THE OTHERS???

YES, EXACTLY! THANK YOU! Omaeda getting a bankai would have been an outrageous thought before this chapter, BUT DID YOU SEE THAT ONE PANEL WHERE HE RECEIVED ONE OF THOSE PILLS?? I MEAN, i’m sure as hell that one isn’t meant for Soi Fon since that pill absorbs into whoever touches it. Then we have Rangiku, practically looking dead, defeated by the enemy yet again. ._.

Kubo should give her a break, like you said, she’s been a vice-captain for such a long time, probably the longest after Choujiro. Maybe the reason why she can’t obtain a bankai (if she doesn’t have one, that is.) is because of that part of her soul that got stolen by Aizen.
