Izuru Kira

 * 1) "The most important thing to me is that everyone in the 3rd Division, above all else, is bound together by trust."
 * 2) "Battle is not a stage for empty heroics, nor is it something to take pleasure in. Battle is filled with despair. Dark, terrifying. That is the way that it should be. That way, people learn to fear battle and to choose the path of non-violence where possible."
 * 3) "A warrior should never plead for his own life."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 2 is his defining moment, imo.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 2 His best speech given. Naruto 45 (talk) 21:07, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 2 - Excellent quote here.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Momo Hinamori

 * 1) "Captain Aizen's words... his voice... Captain's everything calms my restless spirit. I'm so glad I came... I'm so lucky to serve under you, Captain Aizen."
 * 2) "Don't worry about me, Rangiku-san. I've come to this battlefield as the Fifth Division Lieutenant. I bear the adjutant's plate upon my arm. But what that signifies is that I am here as 'the officer responsible for the Fifth Division'. Not as 'Captain Aizen's subordinate'. That man is now the enemy of Soul Society."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 2 is much more indicative of her current personality and her taking responsibility for the 5th Division.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 2 - It's a shame she doesn't have more options, but this one is good. It shows her ability to take responsibility while showing that her attachment to Aizen is still there.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Renji Abarai

 * 1) "I am really a tramp down to my bones. I hate myself. I bark at the moon, but I don't have the courage to jump and grab it."
 * 2) "I have always been afraid, always been pretending to follow you closely, always been pretending to sharpen my teeth, when the truth is, I am scared to death just treading on your shadow."
 * 3) "Showing concern for a warrior's life on the battlefield is an insult to that warrior."
 * 4) "Only a piece of trash would slaughter a woman in cold blood. To live on as a worthless piece of trash would be just as bad as dying here now."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 is my favorite out of all of these.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 - Not quite as iconic, but it captures his most recent persona. I feel like he has gotten past his fear of surpassing Byakuya.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1 Best description of him as a character throughout the series. -- 14:04, May 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 2 I believe it's the best choice. Mr.Rig and Zig 21:42, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Tetsuzaemon Iba

 * 1) "I wasn't a do-it-all guy in the beginning, but instead of focusing on one thing, being more well-rounded means a better chance of promotion to lieutenant. Since my goal was to become a lieutenant, I decided to be a do-it-all guy."
 * 2) "Never cause your division to suffer a loss for your own personal reasons. As long as you are a member of the Gotei 13, your orders are absolute. Even if it means crushing your own wishes and your pride, you must enforce those orders with every fiber in your body!"
 * 3) "In your condition, you think to openly attack me? There is no meaning to a full-frontal attack if it leads only to defeat! Whether you run or you strike your enemy through, if you do not win, it holds no meaning!"
 * 4) "If you wish to adhere to your own wishes, then gain the strength to do so. But when you face the enemy, you must win no matter the cost. That is what it means to follow the proper order of things."
 * 5) "Let's get going, Captain. Your decision wasn't wrong at all. You have done nothing wrong. Let us do battle, Captain. Let us defeat him, that wretched Yhwach, for Yamamoto Genryūsai-dono."


 * Vote:
 * 1) All of these are good, but I like Option 4 as a top=of-the-page quote the most.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 - Some manly wisdom here.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Shūhei Hisagi

 * 1) "He who fears not the blade he wields has no right to wield that blade."
 * 2) "I prefer to look my opponent in the eye."
 * 3) "I've always looked up to you, and you have my utmost respect. However, that doesn't give you the right to speak ill of Captain Tōsen!"


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 is the best, simply the best.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1  Agreed with Xili. Naruto 45 (talk) 21:07, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1 is technically Tousen's, but unlike him, Hisagi actually lives by it.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Rangiku Matsumoto

 * 1) "Oh, my. So you do listen after all. I was thinking your ears were as bad as your face and your style."


 * Vote:
 * 1) It's kind of hard to find Rangiku quotes that sum up a lot of her personality, but Option 1 is the best I could find.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)

Yhwach

 * 1) "How many times do I have to tell you? I will tolerate no petty bickering in my presence. Conflict does not please me."
 * 2) "Conflict is always such a bitter affair."
 * 3) "Allow me to tell you what you have failed to realize until the day of your death. Soul Society will die here today. But the Gotei 13 died with us, a thousand years ago."
 * 4) "I must give thanks to the souls of the dead. Another day in which I can clearly behold this world."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 3 is legit.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 captures his motivation and his view of those who have died for him.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 4  Best insight into his real personality and motivation. -- 14:04, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Jugram Haschwalth

 * 1) "His Majesty's will is all that matters. It is not my place to dispute his decision."
 * 2) "It seems the scales of battle are evenly balanced at present. Were they not, there would be no reason for me to come here. My duty here is to tip those scales in our favor."
 * 3) "Lives that were saved by good fortune must be swept aside by equal ill fortune."
 * 4) "His Majesty and I are two sides of a balanced scale. While His Majesty returns to being the Father of the Quincy, I take up the mask of the ruler in his stead. His Majesty and I are connected."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 sums him up so well.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 3 seems to be his philosophy, more or less. Balance is more or less his theme.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  01:18, May 4, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 3 Same reasons as Mohrpheus -- 14:04, May 4, 2014 (UTC)

Askin Nakk Le Vaar

 * 1) "Nope, no good! Dealing with you is just gonna take way too much time. I'd better not bother. I mean, if I was gonna make you die, I reckon I'd have to try out way too many different tactics. Sorry, but I'm just awful with that kind of finicky stuff. I like to get things over with in a flash, y'know?"

Bazz-B

 * 1) "In that case, I guess you won't mind if I take that position from you! If you've got no problem with some dude coming out of nowhere and taking what ought to be yours, then I'll go and take it for myself!"
 * 2) "It's a pity you don't have your Bankai right now, really. I would've liked to show you how I can annihilate your Bankai's ice with a single finger."

 * 1) Of the two, Option 2 speaks more about his arrogance and confidence in The Heat.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:44, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 2 Xilinoc pretty much took the words out of my mouth. Mr.Rig and Zig 20:58, May 3, 2014 (UTC)
