Glad to get some dialogue in this chapter (or at least more than has been offered over the last month or two). The cuarto Espada is coming to the stark realization that his defeat is perhaps imminent, and by the last panel it is (or is it??). Time to use that special ability.
So we get a bit of exposition on how Ulquiorra's ability is most prominently defensive (which is obvious, as his regenerative abilities were made clear much earlier), and so he lacks a bit offensively. His ability 'Lanza del Relampago' (literally, 'Lance of Lightning') is nothing too special, but it is strong. And, as Ishida points out, Ulquiorra can make make multiple lances (is it just me, or does this lance thing seem a bit 'Nelish'?). Predictably though, the new - Vasto Lorde? - Ichigo easily overcomes Ulquiorra and, in the end, pins him down, preparing to devastate him with a full frontal cero.
I'm not complaining or anything, but Ichigo seems a bit too powerful here. It's not like I want Ulquiorra to win or anything, but something's just a bit unfair about what happened. All I have to say is that Ichigo better come to suffer severe (long term) mental consequences for his now substantially increased fighting ability. Ulquiorra's slightly depressed, resigned nature at the end here is a bit humorous. After two releases he still can't win, if I was him at this moment I think we would be in collective agreement: "you know what, screw it!!"
