Talk:Espada

Trivia
''It is unknown whether the aspects of death correspond to the Espada by rank or by the characteristics of the member. ''In what way is that unknown? Baraggan himself stated that each of them has an aspect that they embody in either their personality or abilities. He stated that it was Harribel's sacrifice, not the sacrifice of the tres espada. Furthermore, anyone can figure out just by looking at their demeanor. Aarroniero is a 'glutton' for power(Gluttony), Szayel is a mad scientist(Madness), Grimmjow is ultra violent(Destruction), Nnoitra lived in despare that he would never find a strong opponent(Despair), Ulquiorra shows no signs of emotion until his deaht(Emptiness/Nihilism), Harribel believed in sacrifice(Sacrifice), Baraggan's powers are centered around his aspect(Time), the most obvious one, Starrk despised being alone, which is why he split himself in two(Loneliness), and Yammy is obviously a major hothead(Anger). That trivia is in now way accurate, since it was actually stated. Even if it wasn't the evidence above is more that enough for it to not be speculation. NightTrain (talk) 22:33, March 4, 2011 (UTC)

I have already removed it. If someone feels I am wrong, I would gladly like to be informed. NightTrain (talk) 22:35, March 4, 2011 (UTC)

Garganta
How is Garganta exclusive to the Espada? There's just no way. Aizen could use it; Tosen could use it; even Grimmjow's Fraccion, though mostly not shown, could use it; Grimmjow was seen coming out of a Garganta before the others, and then Shawlong and Nakim were shown coming out of another one, chapter 199 page 3.

 * It is not exclusive to the Espada. Wonderweiss/Fura used it in addition to your examples. Seems to have been left there from when that section was about the powers Espada had, rather than was was purely exclusive to them. I've removed it. Thanks for pointing it out. 19:20, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

Gald I could be of service :) Aeron Solo wuz here (talk) 22:59, March 28, 2011 (UTC)

A Question
Since some captains were unable to defeat some of them like Soi-Fon and Toshiro being unable to defeat Baraggan and Tier respectively, why does it not say that some of them are stronger than some captains?

It's not so much as Stronger as in their abilities were able to counteract the abilities of those they were facing!! Remember, Barragan was defeated by somebody who wasmerely using his Lieutenant-class Kidō abilities because they counteracted Barraga's abilities!! And we do not know what the outcome for Hitsugaya and Harribel's atch would have been had WW not got involved!! So this is unconfirmed information!! SunXia  (Chat)  17:14, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Espada Names
Ever since the Unmasked book came out, there has been a few changes to the Espada's names. I understand that the Unmasked book is a reliable source, but it also leaves me with one question.

The names of some of the Espada such as Tia Harribel was changed to Tier Harribel, but does that also mean that her name in Japanese and Romaji is also incorrect? I just want to be sure that their names that are proven wrong are not also wrong in Japanese.

Can someone confirm this? I don't own the book so I'm not sure if something else was pointed out about their names.


 * It is just the romanization that is incorrect. The Japanese spellings are unaffected. 14:42, July 2, 2011 (UTC)

Tier Harribel's Status
Why is Harribel's status say that she is active and returned to Heuco Munco? She was killed by Sosuke Aizen. Can someone explain this to me, and why is the page locked?ChaosLove (talk) 04:48, August 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * The page is locked because people keep trying to say Harribel is dead. She is alive and well thanks to orihime as noted in UNMASKED.--


 * Oh really? I didn't know this, which UNMASKED was it? I want to see it because now I'm interested ChaosLove (talk) 04:59, August 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * There is only one UNMASKED. It is the third Databook.--
 * Yup, it is written in the short story Nestle To Night in the UNMASKED character book which was released this year. You can see more about it at the following links: UNMASKED and Project:Unmasked Project (and the talk page of the latter). 20:41, August 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * Harribel's fate is now available on her article page.--Salubri (Talk)  01:00, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

Exclusive Powers & Techniques
Shouldn't we add Cero Oscuras? Ulquiorra stated it's a Cero used by the Espada in their released form. -- The Goblin   Talk   23:39, November 17, 2011 (UTC)
