*nods* I mean, after his first Resurreccion, we all knew he had some kind of a demon form...but with this continuation, Kubo just took this to a whole new symbolic level.

I'm really hoping I'm not off the mark with these allusions he's making. I just see too many things that could be happening in the next few chapters, and the biggest confrontation will be Orihime when she sees Ulquiorra in his fully-released form. Her reactions -- and his reaction to her -- will be amazing, I just know it.
