Gin Ichimaru

 * 1) "I'm a snake. Cold of flesh and devoid of heart. My tongue flicks back and forth, ever in search of new prey, and if I like what I find, I swallow 'em whole."
 * 2) "If you were to turn into a snake tomorrow and begin devouring humans, and from the same mouth you started devouring humans, you cried out to me 'I love you,' would I still be able to say 'I love you' the same way I do today?"
 * 3) "I'm not too fond of sad stories."

 * 2) Option 1 works best.--Xilinoc (talk) 13:47, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1. Its between 1 and 2 for me, and I prefer 1.  14:21, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 1 Best description of Ichimaru by himself
 * 5) Option 1 The only decent quote.  01:08, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Kaname Tōsen

 * 1) "My eyes can only see one path and that is the path with the least amount of bloodshed. Justice, is always there, and the path I follow, is justice."
 * 2) "If it is not enough to believe in justice, then I will become justice. I will seek out the evils in this world and wipe them out like the clouds in the sky. I swear I will... for justice."
 * 3) "Justice without a great cause begets nothing more than slaughter. However, that same slaughter in the name of a great cause is justice."
 * 4) "Justice is not something that can be expressed in mere words."
 * 5) "To forgive the one who killed my beloved friend?! Certainly, that would be an act of 'goodness'! A beautiful act! Almost too beautiful to behold!! But is 'goodness' the same thing as 'justice'?! No! To live out my own peaceful life, never avenging the regrets of the departed, would be evil!"
 * 6) "Oh, I have fear. For the past hundred years, I have been afraid - afraid of dying like the rest of you Shinigami."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 - Here are lots of great quotes so it's really difficult to decide, but I think option 1 is just a little better than the rest. -- 12:00, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 works best Option 3 because Yyp makes a good point.--Xilinoc (talk) 16:01, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 3. 1 is good and probably the one that most would associate with him out of these, but 3 (while admittedly perhaps not quite as good in its own right) shows the contradiction/facade, path of least bloodshed as I kill kill kill.  14:21, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 3 It was a toss-up between 3 and 4 for me, but I'm going with 3 ("path of least bloodshed as I kill kill kill" - Yyp)
 * 5) Option 3 It illustrates his dutiful nature while also explaining his defection.  01:08, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 6) Option 3 Tousen's hypocrisy is one of the reasons I hate him so damned much, and this quote sums that up pretty well.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  18:33, April 28, 2014 (UTC)

Byakuya Kuchiki

 * 1) "Shall I tell you the difference between you and I? It's level. It's like the story of the monkey trying to capture the moon. No matter how he struggles, it's just the moon's reflection on the water he sees. So he only sinks into the water. Time after time, he sinks."
 * 2) "I have already told you. You and I, our levels are as distant as the earth from the heavens. Must I spell it out for you? I have discarded my left arm, discarded my left leg, and yet even so, I have not nearly lowered myself to your level."
 * 3) "At what point did I ever claim that I was cutting you down in my capacity as a Shinigami? To justify the actions I have taken I need but one reason. You raised your blade in contempt of my pride."
 * 4) "If it is for the sake of my pride, there is nothing I won't destroy."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Even though it's from the anime, Option 4 is a great top of the page quote, in my opinion, because it sums Byakuya up so damn well. Plus, it's very short and sweet.--Xilinoc (talk) 04:49, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 I agree, best quote to describe him. -- 14:01, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 3 Even though it is a little more reliant on context, I like this one more because it emphasizes his pride and its link to Rukia.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  18:33, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 4 Best of the options presented.  10:55, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 5) Option 4 No additional comments

Yammy Llargo

 * 1) "Piss me off more, and more, and more! The more you do, the more pathetic your final deaths will be!"
 * 2) "Ain't one of the Espada you've fought up until now that's stronger than me. Grimmjow, Nnoitra, an' Ulquiorra too. As far as I'm concerned, they're all just trash!"
 * 3) "Tch. It just ain't nearly enough. I've slept my ass off, eaten my ass off, saved up a whole load of Reiatsu. Just killing off a bunch of nobodies like these punks ain't nearly gonna be enough to use it up!"
 * 4) "What are you dumbasses blabbering on about down there?! You think you're gonna take ME out?! Little pieces of trash like you?! Don't make me laugh."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 Implies strength and showcases his aspect of death. -- 14:01, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 Outside of the databooks, this is about as much characterization as Yammy got in the end. And ditto on the aspect of death.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  18:33, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1, see above.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:34, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 1. Just works best out of these options.  10:55, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 5) Option 1 Clearly the best option

Baraggan Louisenbairn

 * 1) "Do not allow even a single one of these ants to escape with his life. If you lose here, there will be no place for you to return to. Do not disappoint me. Do not force me to walk a path not stained with the blood of my enemies."
 * 2) "It matters not who you are or what manner of power you may possess. Before the power I wield, all beings are equal. Come. It is time that you too were reduced to naught but bones."
 * 3) "I suppose 'buying time' in the face of one who holds dominion over 'age' is a similar action to spitting in the face of God. Perhaps I should congratulate you on your nerve, lesser beings though you are."
 * 4) "Shinigami, humans, Hollows, Arrancar, all of their differences and strife, will, freedom, beasts, plants, the moon and stars and sun - all of it is meaningless! There is but one absolute in this world, and that is my power!"
 * 5) "It is only natural for I, wielder of the ultimate power over all, to hold dominion over the world!! Among a number of competing powers, equality can never be found. But observe! In these hollow eyes of mine, the lives you bear are no greater than those of mere ants!"


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 4 shows his immense power and arrogance best. -- 14:01, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 because I agree with Ginhikari.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:34, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1 Shows how he presents himself as a king and his very threatening aura. It's a really badass quote overall. --(Marioman53 (talk)) 23:18 April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 4. It was between op. 2 and 4 for me, both work for me because they hint at his power being even greater than him, as well as showing what he was like. I think I'll go with 4.  10:55, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 5) Option 4

Tier Harribel

 * 1) "With the bite of a shark, a dragon of ice shall sink beneath the waves."
 * 2) "You are next. I will avenge my subordinates."
 * 3) "Our existence is built upon the noble sacrifices made. Instead, you fall in battle from trying to protect your subordinates. My subordinates were not simply defeated. They left behind markers for me, on how to carry on the fight. If I had lost, my subordinates' sacrifices would have all been for nothing. I hold within me the resolve of those who sacrificed their lives."
 * 4) "We women are easy prey for the males. I brought you here because I thought that it would be better if we worked in a group, rather than working alone."
 * 5) "I don't want to become stronger through the power I gain by killing and sacrificing another. If I can't win alone, then I'll win as a group."
 * 6) "No world is without sacrifices. But if we produce casualties, we would also sustain casualties of our own."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 Not a great quote, but I'd prefer a manga quote and this is the best I found. -- 14:01, April 28, 2014 (UTC)


 * 1) Option 6 works best for me.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:34, April 28, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 6 Yeah I like this one.
 * 3) Option 6. Seems like the best choice. Arrancar109  (Talk)  06:32, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 6 - Sacrifices are her thing.--

Chōjirō Sasakibe

 * 1) "As a member of your school, I would only be able to imitate you. The role of a right-hand man should be to compensate for those areas which you cannot address!"


 * Vote:
 * 1) I'm glad that there's such a multitude of page quote options available for this fleshed-out character, but ultimately Option 1 wins out for me.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:33, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 Such a hard choice.
 * 3) Option 1 seems the best choice. Arrancar109  (Talk)  06:32, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 1 - His resolve.--

Suì-Fēng

 * 1) "I have no interest in whether it is right or wrong. All I care about is executing orders as a captain of the Gotei 13. All who get in my way are my enemies. All enemies must be slain. That is all that matters."
 * 2) "I have never liked squad camaraderie. I feel that for training purposes, a measure of antagonism between superior and subordinate is essential."
 * 3) "Do not make the mistake of thinking that we have entered this battle prepared to die. We fight that we may live. 'Defending the world' is nothing more than a grand excuse. We fight to protect one another, to protect you, and to protect countless others from the hands of Aizen."'


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 is a great quote that indicates just how serious Suì-Fēng is about her line of work.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:33, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 I agree -- 18:55, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 1 Agreed.
 * 4) Option 1 seems to be the best one that describes Sui-Feng. It's pretty much her personality in a nutshell. Arrancar109  (Talk)  06:32, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * 5) Option 1 - Its her entirely.--

Marechiyo Ōmaeda

 * 1) "Let me tell you something. You should never judge people on outer appearances."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Even though he has that rant about fatness and his acknowledgment of being a member of the Gotei 13, I feel Option 1 is much more fitting for Marechiyo here because it's tied to how he pretends to be oafish and bumbling in order to hide his true capability.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:33, April 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 Tell that to Reigai Omaeda.....
 * 3) Option 1. 'nuff said. Arrancar109  (Talk)  06:32, April 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 1 - Thats all.--
