Kuugo Jingou's his name, but what the hell is his game? (Bleach 428 summary & review)

Finally, Bleach 428 is out, and it's pretty good. I have hoping to read it while I was cooking a bunch of crap yesterday, but beggars can't always be choosers. :-/
428 opens in Ikumi's shops, where Ichigo is still discussing a new job with their strange client , the Unnamed Stranger. Things are starting to heat up, when Ikumi shoves her hot-ass face into the scene again, stating that their will take up the job, but the guy has to leave.
U.S. leaves his contact info, and slips out the door, delivering one final warning to Ichigo to see what's going on at Urahara's shop once he gets a chance. Outside, U.S. is stopped by some more strangers, who we take as his companions. One is a young girl with pony tails named Riruka, the other a middle-aged man with an eye-patch and a nice suit named Giriko Kutsuzawa. Both parties seem disappointed in U.S.'s efforts to recruit Ichigo to their cause, whatever that might be (Riruka even offers to try and bang him), but U.S. quickly and decisively gets them to disperse so that they are not heard and caught.

Meanwhile and Urahara's shop, Jinta gets molested while Karin goes over some products with Urahara. She seems to be stocking up on spirit deterring items and sprays in order to protect a powerless Ichigo. Karin's powers have definitely improved, evident in the fact the she is able to pretty accurately gauge her brother reiatsu levels.
As she leaving, Ichigo pokes his head out from a around a corner. He's kinda concerned about what he seeing, but not so much so . . . until U.S. shows up. He says that Ichigo and his family cannot trust Urahara, as nothing in his history suggests that he is a trust worthy guy (i.e. Rukia's gigai). If he want's to protect his family, Ichigo must to find out more about his past, and more about Urahara. Still stunned, Ichigo asks U.S. his name. ". . . Jingou. Kuugo Jingou."

Interesting chapter, with some great plot development. I'd give it a 9/10, especially since we final have a name for ol' U.S. But what is Kuugo's game? He obviously needs/wants something from Ichigo, which probably requires his to regain his abilities and/or to rid himself of Urahara's influence. How far will this have to go though? Will he have to sever ties with the Visored, because of their strong ties to Urahara? What about Ishida, who now is one of Urahara's employees? Or is Kuugo just trying to sever all of his ties with any Shinigami?

I'm not too sure at this point, only because we don't know that much about Kuugo. He is obviously familiar with the Shinigami order, which is evident with his familiarity with the Shinigami Badge. My guess? Kuugo and friends are either something completely new, rouge Shinigamis or rouge Visored. Still to early to tell for sure though.

Next week: WTF is up with Urahara and will we find out more about Kugo and friends?

Hopefully OOO 11 will be up soon, so keep an eye out for that as well.
