I know I’m late again to share some bleach insights. Anyway, just now I decided to cope up in the story, since I’ve been skipping this series after being bored watching a lame fights and less story. Nevertheless, here I go again. I guess there’s no new anime series to watch so I will watch this one. However, this time I won’t make a review, since most of you have already watch this ahead of me, so what I’m going to feed you is something that you really really like, the opening theme, or maybe you already singing this all the time.
Moving on, since I’m delayed, I just have to give some notes about Bleach’s infamous antagonist, the Espada.
#1. Stark - Stark has an overall lazy and laid back personality. The remains of Stark’s hollow mask consist of a bottom jaw that is positioned like a necklace and his hollow hole is on his sternum, right below the tip of his mask. With one female fraccion, Lilinette.
#2. Barragan Luisenbern - He is a stout, older and grumpy arrancar, and the remnant of his mask takes the form of a five-pointed crown. Charlotte Cuuhlhourne, Abirama Redder, Findor Carias, Pō, Ggio Vega, and one who remains unnamed are his fraccion.
#3. Halibel - is the Tercera Espada, signified by the "3" tattooed on the inside of her right breast, she is also the only current female Espada. Apache, Mila Rose and Sun-Sun are here subordinates. She is very calm and rarely speaks, but when she does, it’s fairly serious.
#4. Ulquiorra Schiffer - He has a largely stoic appearance, rarely even changing his facial expression, and does not allow the actions of others to impede the tasks set to him by Sōsuke Aizen. The remainder of Ulquiorra’s hollow mask forms a broken helmet with a curved horn and covers the left half of his head. His hollow hole has moved since his first appearance; when first introduced it is at the base of his neck, but in later appearances, it has been moved onto his chest.
#5. Nnoitra Jiruga - He wears a large eye-patch that covers most of the left side of his face, as well as the remnants of his hollow mask (a small set of jawbones and teeth) and his hollow hole, both located around his left eye socket.
#6. Grimmjow Jeagerjaques - His name stems from that of an architect named Nicholas Grimshaw. he remains of his hollow mask consist of the right jawbone, and his hollow hole is located on his abdomen. Before becoming an arrancar, Grimmjow was a panther-like adjuchas-class menos who wandered Hueco Mundo, and he eventually met and led a group of other hollows in their mutual quest for power. As time passed and Grimmjow became the only one who grew stronger, he ate pieces of the others’ flesh so that their evolution would not regress and so he could become even stronger.
Luppi - He has a youthful and feminine appearance, and tends to be rather demeaning to opponents or those of lower ranks. The remains of his hollow mask (a top row of teeth) rest on the left side of his head.
#7. Zommari Leroux - He is a quiet, reverent figure that praises Sōsuke Aizen and despises Soul Reapers for arbitrarily judging hollows. The remnants of his hollow mask take the form of a necklace made out of teeth and a ridge of spikes running down the center of his forehead. Zommari has the self-proclaimed fastest sonído among the Espada, referred to as Gemelos Sonído.
#8. Szayel Aporro Granz - He is an intellectual and the scientist of the Espada, thinking highly of himself and following his plans down to the finest detail. He is quite sadistic and views others as little more than research material. He thinks poorly of non-hollows, and hopes that Sōsuke Aizen will someday eliminate all entities that aren’t hollows.
#9. Aaroniero Arruruerie - He has an unusual glass capsule filled with red liquid and two floating masks in place of a head, which he usually covers with a tall white mask. The two masks tend to talk in tandem when revealed, giving the effect of two people speaking in turn. The upper mask speaks with a deep voice while the lower mask speaks in a high-pitched, child-like voice, and they appear to have a level of individuality as the lower mask is more afraid of death, screaming blasphemy to Aizen when he dies while the upper mask merely curses one word. He is the last of the first-generation Espada.
#10. Yammy - What remains of his hollow mask is the jawbone, which rests on his chin. He is the largest, but not the bright, of the Espada, as he relies upon Ulquiorra Schiffer to explain things and give him orders while in battle.
Former Espada
Neliel Tu Oderschvank - a.k.a Nel is a good-natured, child-like arrancar when first introduced. Nel has suffered amnesia. She can swallow cero attacks and fire them back. In her adult form, she can also add her own cero to this blast, doubling its power, aptly named a "double cero". Her released form is that of an ibex-like centaur with longer curved horns, a thick tail, and armor over her shoulders and hands. Her sword transforms into a double-ended white lance, giving her the appearance of a medieval knight or a jouster.
Pesche Guatiche - is a seemingly harmless, humanoid arrancar whose body is covered in a sort of light armor, complete with a mask resembling an insectoid head with a large pair of mandibles. His hollow hole is positioned near his stomach.
Dondochakka Bilstin - is a large, spotted humanoid arrancar with a tiki mask and compound eyes. Despite his menacing appearance, he is prone to tear-filled outbursts at the slightest provocation, usually when he’s worried about something.
So, I hope I was able to share to you some good facts and trivias of Bleach’s fearsome antagonist. While Espada is the most dangerous villain in bleach world, Akatsuki on the other hand spawned the Naruto world by collecting the bijuu.
