Well, Ichigo's been getting pretty well reamed for the last couple of chapters. Now we get a chapter that mainly serves to reemphasize Orihime's despair. Generally, The Lust 3 feels like a set-up chapter, not too much happens this week. We do get to see some pretty killer Ishida action though.
Sadly, Ishida's Licht Regen (literally translated from German as 'Rain of Light') fails to even scratch Ulquiorra. As this is undoubtedly one of Uryu's most powerful techniques, the chances that he will even be able to stall the released 4th Espada for anything other then a negligible amount of time is next to zero. I applaud Ishida's valiant efforts though, he really has guts; if it was me up there I would probably start crying and wet my pants.
Orihime is aggravatingly pathetic is this chapter; almost humorously so. She has proven herself clearly incapable of being able to mentally deal with her own plight. It seems like - at least for the time being - she is mainly a foothold for Ichigo to reach the next level. About ten 'Kurosaki-kuns' later and Ichigo appears to have gotten sufficiently riled to reawaken as something abnormal.
I'm guessing the real, savage battle begins next chapter. It looks like (or perhaps this is something completely new) Ichigo's uninhibited hollow form has resurfaced (or should I say: the king and the horse have switched places). This doesn't bode well for Ulquiorra to say the least; and if this does in fact turn out to be true hollow Ichigo next chapter, Orihime and Ishida better get the hell out of there.
