I don't recall a contradiction at all. All he said was, "it keeps people from lingering too long." So, if you stay in there for an extended period, you're bound to run into it. But I actually thought this was an interesting plot device. It was established way back when that the tunnel was in a different reality, as it had somehow messed up the timeframe of the Soul Society when they exited.
Also, I'm speculating that Aizen's new form has something to do with illusions. I had speculated earlier that he was phasing through attacks because of remarks like "it's like there's nothing there." Then he showed the Hollowfied eyes, which reminded me that Kaname's Ressurrecion had powers that were related to his Zanpakuto.

Seems Aizen still might have a weakness
Hey remember when Orihime planned to erase the Hougyoku out of existence?
I wonder if Tite's still going to use that plot device even though he didn't build it up much.

I think she'll probably end up somewhere where she has a chance to do it but doesn't because god forbid Orihime ever accomplish something.

shame she's so goody-goody, or she could just reject Aizens existance

She could pull an Avatar & reject his powers. But I think we're forgetting a few other problems with her ability, namely that it's weakened through hesitation, which Aizen seems to be working with, & that it can't eliminate extremely powerful Reitsu, which is the Hougyokou & Aizen in a nutshell.
I do hope she & Ichigo's other friends become more influential in the waning chapters, though. As much as I love the other protagonists, it's a shame how much the original group is being pushed aside, sans Ichigo. I was actually on the Bleach Wiki the other day & read that Orihime is a black belt. Anyone else remember that? Me neither.

I think someone is confusing Orihime with Tatsuki, and she isn't simply a black belt, she got second in the national championship, with a broken arm no less.

Actually, I recall it was mentioned offhandedly once that Orihime does take part in some martial art that I think was karate. I don't remember her being a black belt though.

Theory about the next 2 arcs:
Note that this just my educated guess of how things might play out based on how Tite has handled things up till now. As Ichigo learns the last getsuga move, Aizen proceeds to the destroy Karakura Town. Collecting souls for the Soul Key/Kings Key. As the destruction continues, Uryu's father is forced into battle against Aizen. gin offers to deal with him but Aizen declines his offer. Believeing that he's strong enough to deal with 1 Quincy. -Aizen VS Uryu's Father (yes I forgot his name, give me break theres like over 40+ characters in Bleach)- Mean while Ichigo's training is still underway. But things don't seem to be going fast enough. Back in the world of the living, Aizen has force Uryu's Father into a corner. Dispite his efforts, the Quincy is killed (may survive seeing Tite's track record with having the main characters survive near death moments) by Aizen as he continues to collect souls. Soon Ichigo's friends and sisters in Karakura catch notice of Aizen and try to stop him. But Aizen over powers them. Just as he's about to finsh them Ichigo arrives along with Isshin. Prepared to give it another go. -Ichigo & Isshin VS Aizen & Gin- Even with the last Getsuga move, Ichigo and Isshin are unable to beat Aizen. In a last desperate attempt. Ichigo and Isshin flee the now nearly destroyed Karakura Town. Saving as many of their friends and family as they can at the mercy of Aizen who no longer sees a reason to eat them yet. Using the souls he's gathered, Aizen creates the Soul Key/Kings Key and invades the Kings royal grounds. End of Fake Karakura battles Arc Flash back Arc:Isshin Back at the Fake Karakura town. Ichigo blames himslef for being unable to stop Aizen. Torn by the countless deaths Ichigo wanders off from the others, depressed. Later that moment Isshin finds Ichigo deep within the town. After cheering Ichigo up through kicking his ass mercilessly, Isshin decides that now is the time to tell Ichigo, why he couldn't tell him he was a Soul Reaper earlier. -Flash Back- After learning about his father, Ichigo's fighting spirit returns. As he, Isshin, and the rest of the surviving captains begin to plan there second attack against Aizen. Mean while Aizen is forced into battle against Squad 0. Knowing that he would be out matched, Aizen decides to call the Vesto lordes to battle. With their help, Aizen kills Squad 0 along with the Soul king. Effectively taking over the Soul Society. End of flash back arc. Next and possibly last Arc would probably take place after a 1 or 2 month/year time skip with ichigo, his friends and family, and the surviving Captains and Soul Reapers taking on Aizen, Gin, and the Vasto lordes. It's seems pretty bad but that's what I'm expecting might happen.
