Kaien Shiba

 * 1) "Because our captain is weak and sick, I'm usually in charge of everything! Therefore you may call me "Captain" Kaien if you like!"
 * 2) "Remember that as long as you're in my division, I will stand by you even if I die."
 * 3) "Every time you and I connect with each other, a little bit of heart is born between us. Heart isn't something inside you. But whenever you think, whenever you remember someone, that's when heart is born. If you were the only one alive in the whole world, heart wouldn't exist now, would it?"
 * 4) "''Whenever you fight from this point on, there is one thing that you must never do. And that is to die alone."
 * 5) "Your heart will be passed on to your friends. If you pass it on to your friends, then your heart will always live on within them."


 * Vote
 * 1) Option 3 It's a bit too long really, but it embodies his philosophy best. -- 09:41, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 3 - The others don't really work without the context of this quote.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  14:25, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 2 is very Kaien, and it's a bit more concise.--Xilinoc (talk) 23:38, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 4 is the winner for me
 * 5) Option 4 Between 3 and 4 for me, but I'm picking 4 because it's a better length for this purpose.  10:38, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

Yumichika Ayasegawa

 * 1) "I can't take it when people are faced with a life and death situation and they don't know what to do."
 * 2) "This is inevitable, I guess. Ugly people are always jealous of pretty people. It's only natural."
 * 3) "If you were a little bit less ugly, I might have spared your life."
 * 4) "Ugly things are completely worthless. Since you're already ugly, I'll give you a clean, pretty death to compensate."
 * 5) We're all gonna die eventually, so we fight before we do! That's what we're all about!"
 * 6) "I refuse to look upon something so hideous."
 * 7) "I would never have released my Zanpakutō. Even if I were to lose and die at your hands."
 * 8) "I never regret anything. That's just the way that I do battle."
 * 9) "If I don't use Ruri'iro Kujaku, then I will use whatever it takes to win, and that is my aesthetic."


 * Vote
 * 1) Option 4 Many good options, but I'll go with this. -- 09:41, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 4 - He doesn't seem to have changed much...  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  14:25, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 9 is much more representative of him than 4 is, imo.--Xilinoc (talk) 23:38, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Tough call, gonna go with Option 8 in the end.
 * 5) Option 8 Toss up between a couple of them, but none of the ugly/pretty ones really feel like they sum him up as good as I would have thought.  10:38, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

Ikkaku Madarame

 * 1) "Men with the word Ichi in their names are often powerful and talented."
 * 2) "We're still fighting! One of us will die before it's over! I, Ikkaku Madarame, 3rd Seat of Zaraki's Division, will never walk away from a fight like a coward!"
 * 3) "If a person dies in combat, at least you get to know the name of the one that brought death to you. Third Seat of Zaraki's Division, Ikkaku Madarame. As for the lowlifes who ignore this etiquette, I simply kill them after they know who did them in." ''
 * 4) "I'll fight the way I always do and still tear you apart because when you get down to it, a man's not a man if he can't be himself in battle!"
 * 5) "You really think you're gonna win a fight like this without taking any lives? Finish them off properly! That's how you show respect to the enemy who started this battle."
 * 6) "No man's life is worth more than another! If you're gonna put your life on the line, you do it as equals! I don't care if you're brothers, or master and apprentice, or whatever! You should only die for a guy who'd die for you! There's nothing honorable about throwing your life away as though it's nothing! That's just showing off like a kid!"


 * Vote
 * 1) Option 5 I really can't decide which is best, but maybe this is it. But I also really like 2, 3 and 6 -- 09:41, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 6 - This captures his relationship with Zaraki pretty well.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  14:25, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 3) Option 5 I like it better then 6. Mr.Rig and Zig 20:10, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) Option 4 sounds a lot more like his philosophy to me.--Xilinoc (talk) 23:38, May 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * 5) It's Option 4 for me.
 * 6) Option 5 Between 5 and 6 for me, 6 is a bit longer than I think is ideal for the top of the page quotes. 5 is pretty good, captures his outlook on fighting well enough.  10:38, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

Ginrei Kuchiki

 * 1) "Those who have great power must know how to control their own power, and sometimes be controlled by that power."


 * Vote:
 * 1) This seems to be his only quote of note, and even though it's from the anime, it seems to fit him well.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:22, May 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) We don't have much from Ginrei, but this is a good one.
 * 3) He is apparently Uncle Ben according to the anime, but it works.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:00, June 5, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) It'll have to do.  10:38, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

Ōetsu Nimaiya

 * 1) "You're looking at things completely the wrong way. Which is superior, the Zanpakutō or the Shinigami? Let's think about that to start with, yeah?!"


 * Vote:
 * 1) Nimaiya sure is passionate about Zanpakutō--Xilinoc (talk) 18:22, May 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Yeah this one pretty much defines his position.
 * 3) The fundamental question. Reflects his job and philosophy.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:00, June 5, 2014 (UTC)
 * 4) It works.  10:38, June 6, 2014 (UTC)

Love Aikawa

 * 1) "Once a guy's comrade falls, the battle gets personal."
 * 2) "There's not a guy in the world who isn't affected at all by a comrade's death. If his comrade's death causes him to falter, we take advantage. If his comrade's death drives him to anger, we strike him down before he can let it out."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Both are similar in message, but one is more concise while the other goes into more detail. However, Option 1 sums it up best for me.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:22, May 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Option 1 Simpler conveying of the same message.
 * 3) Option 1 works better without context.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:00, June 5, 2014 (UTC)

Hachigen Ushōda

 * 1) "Now, now, I think we're all getting a bit overexcited. This is not a festival, you know. So let's all quiet down."
 * 2) "You don't need a special reason for two groups of strangers to join forces."
 * 3) "As long as one does not touch them, all abilities are equal and not deserving of fear."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Option 3 best portrays how calm and collected Hachi is.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:22, May 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Going with Option 2 here. Good quote both in and out of context.
 * 3) Option 3 kind of covers his beliefs.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:00, June 5, 2014 (UTC)

Lisa Yadōmaru

 * 1) "The enemy of my enemy is my friend! That's all the reason we need to work together."


 * Vote:
 * 1) Good ol' Lisa.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:22, May 27, 2014 (UTC)
 * 2) Same reason as mu vote for Hachi's quote, in a way.
 * 3) It almost seems cliché, but it works.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  23:00, June 5, 2014 (UTC)
