i say it only looks like that because gin wasnt taking him seriously, gin only released shikai at the last 2 seconds of their fight...so far we've seen no display that hitsuyaga's bankai is amazing in any way becuase in the 2 times we've seen it, he's been owned almost both times. (this time isnt quite over)
