Those are pretty nice pictures, though they are a little small and loosey to work with for banners. Are there any higher quality images of those that would be more acclimated to being used? Because they are next front profiles of the characters, they would be perfect to use.

I guess about the Rukia's power could be true. But Rukia's powers are no where near that of Ichigo's powers. She might be strong, but I doubt her powers could have hurt that Menos Grande. And I don't think they would be enough to make Ishida strain and bleed so much just from the sheer overwhelming force.

It could have been that Rukia's powers were sort of like a cap. They just simply bottled up Ichigo's powers and once released from that restriction they were too much for Ichigo to handle. I doubt that it was that of a captain's level, but it was no doubt quite powerful at that point.

Kenpachi dying? That sounds like a hard to thing to imagine. He seems like the guy that you cut off his head his body would still be swinging at you. I know that would not happen, but Kenpachi seems like that sort of person. He is pretty crazy powerful and can take just about any injury. Though the cumilation of all of the attacks that Ichigo gave him was enough to knock him out. So I guess that is something to show that Kenpachi still mortal in the fashion that he is not invisible. But he is pretty huge, even without the rest he makes for an imposing figure.
