Yumichika Ayasegawa (2003)
Oh yeah, and Yumichika. This is another recreated shot replacement: Current has more vibrant colors but is more zoomed out and a bit sketchier, Proposal is more focused and detailed but darker.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:02, 11 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Gotta go for colors here.--Xilinoc (talk) 19:02, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Not a fan of these zoomed-in headshots. That aside, while his expression is more neutral in the proposal, his head is set at an awkward angle.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  14:46, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Similar issues here as with Shino, but Yumichika is a bit more known for his outfit so it helps to have more of it.
 * 4) Seeing more of Yumichika's clothing wins out for me. Xeno Gotenks[10/15/22 at 12:52 PM EST]

Silbern
As stunning as the manga art is, the added darkness and shadows in the anime give it a much more fitting atmosphere, IMO. Timjer (talk) 20:32, 11 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1)  As proposer.--Timjer (talk) 20:32, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2)  I like this page to be updated to get the new feel of the building and it ominous presences. Truth fully I have updated the picture to the page but it is worth putting in as a preview. NagareFan1 (NagareFan1) 07:03, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) The edges are a little rough and the shading would really be a deal-breaker if this were a character's face, but neither of those issues are nearly as much of a problem here in my opinion.


 * 1) Solely because of the reduced detail - atmosphere is nice, but in the anime it's harder to tell that it's encrusted with ice and you can't really see the surrounding buildings as well, particularly the one marked with a cross. If a better version comes along in the anime later (entirely likely since this is an establishing shot like the overhead views of the Seireitei we always get), I'll gladly vote for that one.--Xilinoc (talk) 06:40, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) I am in agreement with everything Xil said.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  14:46, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) I said on Discord that I prefered the coloured digital version.
 * 4) More detail can be seen from the manga since it zoomed in more. Plus the higher detail on the ice is nice. Xeno Gotenks[10/15/22 at 12:54 PM EST]

Emilou Apacci
First up for the Tres Bestias replacements is Apacci. In exchange for dimmer colors, we've got more refined linework and a less tilted head.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) For me, the colors take precedence here - she's gaining this huge Roman legionary plume after the timeskip, but you can only tell it's red in the manga. Same with her eye colors.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) I agree for the same reasons Xil just stated. If the anime was colored and bright just as the manga, I would have choose that instead. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 15:52, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Franceska Mila Rose
Second up is Mila Rose, which is a more identical shot between the two. Current has colors, Proposal is a bit larger and more focused.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Once again, the manga wins out for me here - not only for colors, but bc it better depicts her mask fragments at the top of her head via her hair poking out through the gaps (while in the anime it looks more like a black carapace on top of her head).--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Manga is superior in every way in color, distance of shot, and mask fragment detail. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 15:54, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Hidetomo Kajōmaru
Not much to say here... So much better in every way. Timjer (talk) 10:45, 25 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1)  As proposer. Timjer (talk) 10:45, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2)  As uploader!--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3)  As another guy.
 * 4)  Yes, indeed.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  02:28, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 5)  Looks good to me. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 22:57, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Shino Madarame

 * 1)  Saw Xil upload these, so i figured id suggest them. the lighting and angle are way better so naturally a support from me lol.Edanakas (talk) 15:26, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2)  I'd say the slight blush is the only downside here, but aside from that, yeah much better. Timjer (talk) 16:25, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3)  Thank god Pierrot remembered what normal lighting looks like...--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 4)  Better lighting, better option.
 * 5)  Pretty much exactly what I was hoping we'd get during the last vote.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  02:28, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 6)  It does look much better. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 22:58, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Ryūnosuke Yuki
I know we just voted on this, but this is basically an objective upgrade. Same angle, same expression, same focus, but this time you can actually see the DETAILS and COLORS at a glance. What's not to love?--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Duh.--Xilinoc (talk) 17:21, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Obviously. Timjer (talk) 17:39, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Aye.
 * 4) Likewise.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  02:28, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 5)  Nice. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 22:59, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

Quincy: Vollständig
Thanks to our legendary Xilinoc for making this awesome shot of Quilge's Vollstandig from the anime, I felt it was appropriate to put this up for a vote. Timjer (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) While I admit I could go either way with this, part of me would prefer as much quality anime art for infoboxes and pages as possible. Timjer (talk) 18:15, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Well, the plan was to sub out the static image for a GIF of the same scene (as we did with Resurrección), but this would be fine as a replacement for now, alongside use on his page.--Xilinoc (talk) 18:20, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, agreed.
 * 4) It'd be nice if the shot didn't cut part of his wing off, but that's far from a dealbreaker.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  02:28, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
 * 5)  Manga version is dope, but the anime screenshot is just as good. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:00, 27 October 2022 (UTC)

NaNaNa Najahkoop
Bigger, better quality, shows his unique teeth better, no speech bubble... I don't see any real downsides myself. Timjer (talk) 13:54, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) As proposer. Timjer (talk) 13:54, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) I kinda prefer the yellow/gold visor, but w/e.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Looks good to me. Granted the manga version has a better position for the head, but no air bubbles makes the anime win out. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:12, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

BG9
I was pleasantly surprised that everyone's favorite totally-maybe-robot got such a good shot so early in the anime, but here we are. Focus and detail (plus the proper torso coloring) vs. brightness.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) I'm willing to overlook the darkness of this in favor of the chapter 640 spread-accurate yellow torso and higher/focus.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) What Xil said. Timjer (talk) 20:37, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Either is fine, but the anime can work. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:13, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Äs Nödt
I remember ol' Äs's profile image getting some heated debate back in the day because people were split on whether to show him from the front or side (to highlight the mask spikes)...so here's one for each crowd.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Proposal 1 for showing his full head and being fairly close to/higher quality than the pic we're using now, though I do wish we had a brighter alternative...--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Proposal 1 Even thou second one is good and quality one first one is better for profile picture.Jiny Mory (talk) 20:57, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Proposal 1 Looks good. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:14, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Robert Accutrone
Commissioner Gordon finally debuts with his revised, Sōken-like mustache and his full head in frame.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) But of course!--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Kinda wish it was a bit brighter, but good enough. Timjer (talk) 20:37, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, it is good enough. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:16, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Byakuya Kuchiki (2003)
This is the odd one of the bunch - I noticed that Byakuya had a good frontal shot during his Bankai activation, AND that our current image for his post-timeskip/2003 look is at night and sorta zoomed out. If you can excuse the blades in the background, I think it's a bit more on-model for him and a solid improvement overall.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer.--Xilinoc (talk) 20:10, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) The blades in the background can be a bit distracting, but overall the quality and lighting is much better. Timjer (talk) 20:37, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) The resolution is much sharper, which makes it win out. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:17, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Proposed one definitely.--Jiny Mory (talk) 23:22, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Sklaverei
Ah, yes, the overpowered Quincy technique that was never used by anyone else again... Well, thanks to our lovely SunXia we now have two great gifs to use as profile pics instead of that one, vague still image. Timjer (talk) 20:21, 3 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) For proposal 2. Timjer (talk) 20:21, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Same as Timjer, for proposal 2. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:18, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Proposal 2. Jiny Mory (talk) 23:25, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) what, no, I definitely didn't change it to Proposal 2 automatically before I saw it was put up for discussion here, what are you talking about? --Xilinoc (talk) 02:37, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Quincy: Vollständig
Well, the old anime still of Biskiel was nice while it lasted, but considering this page is more about Vollständig in general, how about we switch it up with a gif that shows the general activation of Vollständig? Timjer (talk) 20:50, 3 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer. Timjer (talk) 20:50, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) The gif is a good choice to show the activation. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 23:20, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) It looks better with gif so proposed one. Jiny Mory (talk) 23:29, 3 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Good by me (lines up with us using a GIF for Quincy: Letzt Stil as well), and we can still use the png on Quilge's page.--Xilinoc (talk) 02:37, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Getsuga Tenshō
This is one I've been waiting to do ever since we confirmed that the anime would be using the canon golden color for the GT, and now we have proper material for it. Though I would personally recommend we cut the GIF short to not end on Ichigo being shocked at Quilge remaining unharmed by the dang thing, this shows 1) Ichigo rearing back and charging up the technique, 2) the technique being released directly from his blade, and 3) it transforming from a crescent to an energy surge as it so often does - exactly what we need out of a main GIF for this and which all the other current options lack one or more of (aside from the nuclear black one he used in Karakura Town, but we're going for a Shikai version anyway).--Xilinoc (talk) 02:37, 4 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) But of course!--Xilinoc (talk) 02:37, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Agreed. Aside from the final bit about Quilge being unharmed, I think it works great. Timjer (talk) 08:38, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) This works for me. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 21:12, 6 November 2022 (UTC)

Berenice Gabrielli

 * 1) As proposer. Lighting isnt the beeeeeeeeeest but i think its miles better than the manga one.Edanakas (talk) 17:58, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Looks good. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 03:52, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Agreed. Timjer (talk) 18:47, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) So long, throat-ripping manga panel...--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) Better then manga panel.Jiny Mory (talk) 17:21, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 6) It is either this one or the manga panel of him eating concrete.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Loyd Lloyd

 * 1) As proposer. ditto for the ditto fighter, (har har)Edanakas (talk) 18:14, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Looks very good. I have no objections. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 03:52, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Agreed again. Timjer (talk) 18:47, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Good stuff, glad we got a clean shot of him.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) Not a character I ever thought would get a textbook perfect profile picture, but here we are.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Cang Du

 * 1) As proposer. Not the best, we might get stuff better later but i think its good enough for now.
 * 2) Seems good enough so far. Timjer (talk) 21:43, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) I have no complaints. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 03:54, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Forgot this was the shot we've been using for him all this time, but the anime version works for me too.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) Why not? Jiny Mory (talk) 17:21, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 6) Ideally we will get something better down the line, but this is a straight upgrade from its manga counterpart.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Jerome Guizbatt

 * 1) As proposer. This one is kinda awkward, albeit. Tho its really the best we got. Better than his corpse from the manga imo. Edanakas (talk) 22:05, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) It much better than the manga version. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 03:55, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) He's alive and there's space around his head...it'll do.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Definitely better choice then manga one.Jiny Mory (talk) 17:21, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) It is not great, but poor Jerome has had one of the most egregiously terrible profile pics since his inglorious debut, so this is substantially better.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Chōjirō Sasakibe
So, I was thinking of adding a second profile pick to Chōjirō's page's infobox. Showing him in his younger days, similar to what we did to Yamamoto. Timjer (talk) 21:43, 7 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer. Timjer (talk) 21:43, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) looks good to meEdanakas (talk) 22:05, 7 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) I support this. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 03:56, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) Huh, thought we'd already integrated that into his infobox...but I uploaded it to be there, so yeah!--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) Looks good.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)

Mask De Masculine
Long time coming on this one - Mask was probably the most egregious victim of the colored manga using the colors from chapter 547's spread and never correcting them to 640's because, well, his face is mostly color (and it's a pretty crappy combo, too). Thankfully, unlike with Bazz-B the anime does use the right colors for him, and we've already got a good shot of him. Maybe a more high-definition replacement will come along (optimally in lighting that isn't fricking overcast for once), but for now I think this will do.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) As proposer.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) Agreed. Timjer (talk) 09:31, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) It fine. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 00:42, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Driscoll Berci
First multi-choice in a while (and I don't see this particular character getting another one, ever, so why not?) The one good facial shot we got of this crisp man in the manga was pretty zoomed-in on his face at the expense of his hair and shoulders, in addition to having his hand in the way, and now we have alternatives that resolve one or both of those problems - Proposal 1 zooms out to show his entire head + shoulders but keeps the hand and is at a slight angle, while Proposal 2 is fully frontal with no hand but has Driscoll himself looking down and cuts off his hair a bit. Variables!--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Gotta go with Proposal 2 here - looks and feels better to have him truly centered, even if he's not looking right at the camera, and the background is full of bloody bodies just to set the mood.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) For Proposal 2 as well.09:31, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Proposal 2.Jiny Mory (talk) 17:21, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 4) For some reason I can't see the other proposals on here, but I agree that Proposal 2 fits.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 5) Proposal 2 all the way. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 00:46, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Jugram Haschwalth
First good shot of Jugo, though not without its flaws - still overcast/muted lighting and his face is...a little wonky? I don't know about the chin...--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * 1) Actually gonna vote this one down with some additional consideration, the manga suffices for now with the on-modelness and color.--Xilinoc (talk) 08:12, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 2) I'm not sure what the hell is going on with Jugo's hair here.  Mohrpheus   (Talk)  13:07, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 3) Yeah, the manga wins out in this case. That anime shot is simply bad. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 00:43, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto (Young)
Honestly I myself could go either way with this. The manga image was perfect enough as it is, and the anime one is rather zoomed in. I'll leave it up to others to decide. Timjer (talk) 12:38, 8 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Oh, I forgot about this one. Yeah, gotta default to the manga since it shows his entire head (and the fact that he used to have hair!)--Xilinoc (talk) 17:14, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * 1) Manga is just better. Xeno Gotenks (talk) 00:49, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
