Talk:Royal Guard

Hunting Menos
Does anyone know how that makes sense, that would be the job of shinigami within the Gotei 13 and where exactly did they say this in episode 14?--SalmanH 17:27, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

It is when the menos first appears before Rukia, Ichigo and Uryu, it is as the hollows are closing in on them. She explains it before - Des

She directly referred to the Royal Guard or was it simply a vague reference because if it wasn't then that would be a plot hole since only captains know about them as well as Aizen and Yadomaru Lisa the latter most likely less but otherwise no one else could possibly know about them.--SalmanH 18:07, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

It was directly referenced, if you want to watch the episode to confirm everything (there are many websites that host bleach episodes) - Des

So shouldn't this actually be posted as a forum since this came up.--SalmanH 18:33, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

I couldn't find anything that could even vaguely refer to the Royal Gaurd. Besides, if it was said so early on, it wouldn't have come as such as suprise when Shunsui first explained them. Why in the world would they hunt Menos, anyway? They're gaurds, not hunters. ThePortalMan 18:58, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Scratch that, I found where Rukia says the "Royal Special Task Force". While that sounds like it's referencing the Royal Gaurd, it must be a coincedence. Nothing was known about the existence of the Royal Gaurd until about a month ago. Perhaps it was a mistranslation of Omnitsukido? ThePortalMan 19:07, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Alright, I really don't understand why someone keeps changing it. I've watched one sub, the English dub, and read the chapter, and none of them say Royal Guard. The manga says the Elite Forces, and the dub says Royal Special Task Force, which sounds a hell of a lot like a mistranslation of Omnitsukido. Our job as a wiki is to provide confirmed information, not speculation. ThePortalMan 00:54, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

I thought the literal meaning was supposed to be "Royal Family's Special Service", as I get from the kanji's translations. MarqFJA 12:53, December 27, 2009 (UTC)
