Well, for one, Stark gets defeated without even a Bankai, Halibel doesn't even fight and Gin and Tosen sucks. There would be no reason for Aizen to kill her and Gin and Tosen suck (especially Tosen), the only good thing about this is that the plot finally advances and that we'll probably see Tosen get killed soon.
sorry.

Bleach is not out yet, but I am pretty sure those spoilers are real.
they're real
Harribel will live. She will just sacrifice herself to stop Aizen from killing a Shinigami
Dear TV Tropes Forums... I'm sorry for leaving you for Gaia. Now I left Gaia and have an affair with Tumblr. Love, me.For another theory, someone pointed out that in this chapter http://www.mangafox.com/manga/bleach/v23/c198/4.html
you can see more arrancar that haven't fought yet. It's possible Aizen hasn't brought out the vasto lordes yet.
Starrk was not the Primera Espada for very long, seeing as how Aizen recruited him after he had already defected from Soul Society. I think Wonderweiss is probably a Vasto Lorde. As for Aizen Hollowfying Gin, Tousen, and himself? It is certainly a possibility, he DID say that the only way for him to become more powerful was to master Hollow abilities as well.
Oh, and there is also that theory that Aizen will utilize the souls inside all of the dead Espada to create the King's Key. It would explain why he killed Harribel. He let the top three Espada fight to weaken the Shinigami, and since Harribel was still alive when the other two had already been killed, he just finished her off himself. Of course, this is all just
.
i hope we get some characterization and background for Harribel next chapter.
Dear TV Tropes Forums... I'm sorry for leaving you for Gaia. Now I left Gaia and have an affair with Tumblr. Love, me.No Harribel characterisation?! T_T
but, she may come back to sacrifice herself against Aizen. That's her aspect of death, so she will probably do that.
Now... i hope we get back to Yammy vs everyone in Hueco Mundo soon.
Dear TV Tropes Forums... I'm sorry for leaving you for Gaia. Now I left Gaia and have an affair with Tumblr. Love, me.It's just as bad in Naruto. A little bit better in One Piece, but when you think about it, despite how awesome it is, Nami and Robin have had very very few chances to be useful and none I ever recall having been awesome or badass.
It's sort of the Weekly Shounen Jump thing, y'know?
Though not all shounen is like this. Soul Eater, Claymore, and Fairy Tail are good to their females.
Battle Angel Alita and Black Lagoon are seinen, but plenty of female ass-kicking.
Just don't get your hopes up about Bleach is all I'm saying! EVER.
Feedback Of Heteronormative Gender Stereotypes in AnimeNaruto is slightly better, I can think of females who kicked ass. Temari pwns everyone, current Mizukage is haxx, and Sakura and Chiyo (both females) killed Sasori, who's supposed to be liek a really bad badguy.
And at least Kishimoto doesn't dress them up like sluts >_>
TK's ladies are more like decoration than actually useful. Ogle at Orihime's melons while she cries about Ichigo!
Now now, I'm not saying I don't enjoy the Stripperific, but it's all pointing to... something.

There is still a possibility that they are not real.
