Talk:List of Hollows

Caterpillar like hollow
what about that "caterpiller"(stated by yachiru) hollow that kenpachi sliced but regrew into 3 so ikkaku and yumichika helped??

Adding Hollows to list that aren't named
It's probably been brought up before, but why not create a list of unamed Hollows or add them to this list. For naming purposes they could be described eg. 'Spider Hollow - episode 4' and have an image taken from the episode or manga for each. It would really expand this page and all the cataloging of Hollow images would look fantastic.Sables 13:50, 24 August 2009 (UTC)


 * As far as adding the unnamed ones go, I'm not too sure about that. There are a lot of Hollows that appear and are beaten without ever actually doing anything, like the dozens that surrounded Uryu & Ichio during the Menos Grande attack during their duel (and that was just one scene). They were just cannon fodder. There are dozens (at least) of others that have appeared at various points. I just think it would be too much to have them all listed. Most of the named ones (down to Numb Chandelier) have their names revealed in the databook "Bleach Character Book of Souls". For some reason, Kubo Tite did not deem the others worth giving names to. If we have any information about them, or they do something interesting/that affects the story, then yeah, they could probably be added, but otherwise, I would not think so. -- Yyp  (Talk)  19:08, December 29, 2009 (UTC)


 * Will it be alright then to add just two: The mantis like Hollow who has the distinction of being the first ever seen in the anime, and the female one who falls in love with Kon and gets destroyed by the Karakura Superheroes in episode 50 (I think). Weedefinition 14:22, December 30, 2009 (UTC)


 * If you want, I guess so, so long as it they are in keeping with the style of the others. Looking at episode one though, Fishbone D appears a second before the "mantis-like" Hollow. Fishbone lands on the left, the mantis on the right - notice the shapes of their bodies & the fins on Fishbone's back. -- Yyp  (Talk)  11:59, December 31, 2009 (UTC)

I just watched the dubbed and the subbed versions and Fishbone is nowhere to be see during the mantis attack. Weedefinition 16:29, January 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * You seem to be thinking of the attack in the town. Before that (at about the 2min15 mark), both of them appear just after the we are feared/we have no form thing. -- Yyp  (Talk)  16:38, January 7, 2010 (UTC)


 * I see. Anyway, I was about to add them when I caught sight of the first line in the article: "This is a list of Hollows with given names..." So we can't add the unnamed ones in this page anyway Weedefinition 21:47, January 8, 2010 (UTC)

Runuganga Look-alike
We should add the Runuganga look-alike from the latest episode. They gave his name during the preview/omake at the end, but I forgot what it was. Plus, I'm not very good with screenshots, so I can't get the picture either. But he should be added, none the less...Gerokeymaster 01:30, April 21, 2010 (UTC)


 * There is already an article about him: Battikaroa. WD   Talk to me  13:49, April 21, 2010 (UTC)

New pic for Numb Chandalier
OK, I uploaded a new version of the current mugshot, but it's still in a pretty cruddy quality, + it's a picture of her in action (She's firing her seeds in this picture). Does anyone object to changing the image into this one? WD  Talk to me  12:34, June 25, 2010 (UTC)

Redesignation of this list
OK. Now that (nearly) all the Characters on this list have their own articles, I think we should change the designation of this list as a list for named Hollows. Specifically I want this because of the Jibakurai thing (Talk:Jibakurai), but there are other significant Hollows, mostly in the anime, who were unnamed and were left out of this list. We do have a List of Tōjū, which lists unnamed characters alongside two named characters. NOTE: I'm not suggesting a list that will contain hundreds of Hollow images with one liners. The guidelines should be that the Hollow in question was at the focus of at least one episode and/or chapter, and that it either played a significant role in the plot or had at least one line of dialog. WD  Talk to me  22:40, July 18, 2010 (UTC)

Here's the way I see things. As far as we know, these Hollows' names are nothing more than the ones that Soul Society gave them to distinguish them from one another (i.e. Grand Fisher, Shrieker). As you said however, Hollows like "Jibakurai" and the Guardian have no such names, yet are pivotal to the plot. I mean, if even Gagamel of all Hollows, gets a mention, then plenty of others deserve to be mentioned as well. But again, the issue comes down to designating the ones that are chosen, and what they should be referred to as. Mohrpheus 06:46, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

I can think of several Hollows I'd like the list to include who were never named: The first is the centipede Hollow that Kon defeats along with Ichigo, another is the Huge hollow that attacks the Shinigami students during their training mission, kills two instructors, rips out Hisagi's eye and later defeated by Gin. That's the type of significance I want. Not any two second doodle who got sliced by Ichigo or shot up by Ishida deserve a spot on the list. If the Hollow had a significant contribution to the plot of the episode/chapter, not to mention the overall story, by all rights it should be included. WD  Talk to me  13:52, July 20, 2010 (UTC)
