Bleach Wiki:Quotes in Articles/Archive 2

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."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 1 - I can't think of any better representation of him. -- 12:00, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 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)
 * 6) Option 1 Pretty much, yes.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  18:33, 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
