User blog comment:Uraharattack/Hogyoku: Bio, Spirit, or Tech?/@comment-7658432-20130401075502

Uh, Bio-Tech? It was originally made as a device to separate the boundary between Shinigami and Hollows but it functions as how a living thing would. It senses people's wants (not using technology like super desire detecting device), making it possible to a certain degree including manipulating thousands of people just to make it happen. That being said, it has a will of its own. Whether the individual is worthy of the power it bestows, the Hogyoku decides it.
