Original Espada
http://forum.onemanga.com/showthread.php?t=88797&page=5

According to this translation in the new Masked book (In one of the spoiler tags I believe), the original espada where seven and based on the seven deadly sins, signifying that Aaronierro (as self-stated) [Gluttony], Barragan [Pride], Yammy [Wrath] and Szyael [Fornication] were of the this system. Sorry for not putting it into the Masked talk page but I cannot find it. The Platinum Shadow (talk) 03:12, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Well seeing as Aaronierro is the only original espada left these don't fit--God (Pray)  03:18, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Just to avoid any confusion, that interview is saying that when he first designed the Espada, he only planned for there to be seven based on the sins, but he changed it because he didn't want to just stick to those seven. Storywise, Aaroniero was indeed the only original Espada left. Mohrpheus (talk) 04:10, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Morpheus, was this just an interview with Kubo or is the seven deadly sins thing canon?--God (Pray)  04:13, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

It was all just in the interview. The actual deadly sin part has nothing to do with the story. Mohrpheus (talk) 04:38, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

Then perhaps we should add a trivia point to the espada page about this?--God (Pray)  04:41, August 20, 2010 (UTC)

As long as we source it, I think it'd make a good addition. Perhaps something along the lines of: "The first Espadas Kubo designed were based on the seven deadly sins, though he later chose to abandon this pattern. Aaorniero represents the sin, Gluttony." A little messy, but I think it's an interesting thing to mention. Mohrpheus (talk) 04:49, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oops, never mind. You're right, something like that'd be more appropriate on the Espada page. Mohrpheus (talk) 04:58, August 20, 2010 (UTC)
