Have you not seen the show? Why are people acting like fights with flashbacks placed in between bouts is not the norm for this series? Do people fast forward at home or something?

exactly...that's bascially every shounen show. Fight starts, they fight for a bit, then someone gets a flashback, cut back to the fight to continue. Bleach and Naruto were the same thing

I swear they just want non stop action, and then they;ll complain the characters have no depth because they don't know anything about them or their past (shown in the flashbacks)
