I can't believe how much I'm enjoying this flashback, especially seeing Byakuya get so flustered by Yoruichi; it's wild seeing him drop his usual composed act and actually feel something so intense, which just makes me wonder how things would've gone if he'd always been a little less rigid. And man, that Aizen and Gin moment? Chilling. It felt like a subtle, ominous whisper hinting at the true darkness brewing beneath the surface, even back then.
