The Shinigamis were very stupid this episode. Sacrificing someone's bankai so that Mayuri can gather more data and come up with a countermeasure makes sense, but you'd think they would have picked that person beforehand, and only one of them. They were having trouble but they weren't being completely overpowered, a war of attrition could have worked. Furthermore, Byakuya sacrificing his bankai over Renji's which is literally the most useless bankai in existence made no sense.
But even worse: they all seem to have completely forgotten about kido. Byakuya is very good at it and Soi Fon is a master, why didn't they try using a single spell? Not to mention Soi Fon hates using her bankai and even has shunko which enhances all her stats.
There's another huge contrivance but that one would be a spoiler.
This is the first low point of the arc. Thankfully, next week will be a lot better.
