I don't like to be pedantic about this stuff, but i'm still going to.

You missed a few things in my theory, which were questions or disagreements I already accounted for.

Uta's speed is irrelevant to the Shinohara mask. Since i'm explicitly saying that Uta put on the mask before going into battle. The No-face target mask is what hides his facial Shinohara mask. The doubtful thing in that whole scenario is that Uta would go through all that trouble just to pull off that trick against Juuzou or anyone else who knows Shinohara well. But to make my theory work, I don't put it passed Uta to be so meticulous for only one person. Besides that my whole comparison with the 'ear piercings' was another point that should strengthen the fact that Uta already had the mask on. If it was his kagune that formed Shinohara's face, then we should see a panel where his ear piercings are present and then gone when he wears Shinohara's face, but if i'm not mistaken, then he didn't wear ear piercings at all going into this fight.

The fact that he made himself bulkier is something that can stand perfectly seperate from shaping his face just like Shinohara's. I gladly agree that he made himself bulkier with his kagune to look like Shinohara, but to go as far as to say it's a full morph, not yet.

For now i'm rolling with Uta making a very neat facemask (just look at some movies, it's not something that out of the ordinary to make anymore) that can be put over your entire head & neck and from the neck to the feet, his kagune adds the volume.

2 things which I hope will be shown, because they would back-up the kagune shapeshift theory, are:

The Shinohara face was slashed.

Depending on what he does now based on healing, will proof if it was his kagune.

1. The Shinoharaface heals up completely and he just fights on wearing Shinohara's face. I can't deny that it's his kagune then.

2. The Shinoharaface disperses into his jacket and we get to see his normal face again. Clear proof it was a kagune skill.

3. Him putting the target mask back on. It wouldn't proof that my theory is correct, but it would at least show we aren't yet meant to see it clearly being a kagune skill either.

4. It looks like he pulls off something (The Shinohara mask), then puts on his target mask. I'd say my theory was spot on in that case.
