He's only lost his longer hair because he's lost his powers. So unless when he regains them, he ends up with a different Zanpaktou, he should be able to recover what he used to look like.
But I'm highly doubting it.
And I think that the Captain actually planned that ending part as more or less as a distraction, and stalling tactics. I believe that he knew it was futile to fight against Aizen at all, so the best he could was stall him, then go out with a bang. I'm probably wrong with that theory though. If the Spirit King does happen to be the next villain, at least it won't be some thing in which Ichigo goes in with a few others and ends up taking on everyone and winning, that would probably annoy me a fair amount. So at least the captains are there to help with the fighting.
And I agree, we should go kick Kubo in the balls. :< But hopefully the next chatper will be really long, I mean he has more than enough time to make it longer than usual.
