What I hate about this arc (and fillers in general) is the way the supporting cast is reduced to nothing roles. Characters like Chado and Inoue are basically dumbed down

I hate to tell you this, but this was pretty much done already in the last non-filler arc. I mean, in the entire Soul Society arc, Chado was in one fight where he got his ass handed to him pretty much instantly. And Inoue didn't do a damn thing for the ENTIRE ARC except maybe heal somebody once.

So no, I don't feel bad that those two are being trivialized in this arc because that already happend last arc.

For some reason it feels different, or maybe I'm just rationalizing it. In the SS arc, Chado and Inoue didn't do much, but when they were on screen, they had a purpose or contributed somehow. In the Bounto arc, they are on screen, but don't seem to add anything. Maybe it's just harder to see them behind the 20 other supporting characters they've added in the filler. It makes sense, since they don't want to develop core characters during filler time, so they add characters like Ririn and Claude, and develop those characters instead. It's just annoying is all, since we care about Chado and Inoue, and could care less about these others.
