Bleach Wiki:Featured Quote

'''Read or hear a quote you think was just amazing? Write it down precisely and post it here for everyone to see! The winning quote will be featured on the homepage of the wiki all next month!'''

The deadline is February 28, 2009. Any unsigned votes will be REMOVED before vote counting.

Rules for Adding Quotes
Write down a quote from a recent episode or chapter.

Make a separate headline under the appropriate header for each individual quote you have. Use a descriptive title for the header. For example, if you wanted to list a quote from Ulquiorra about Espada above four not being able to release under the dome, you might put: ===Ulquiorra Cifer: Las Noches Dome=== for the header. Bold the quote so it stands out.

All quotes must contain a reference listing specifically where it came from. For quotes from chapters, they must come from Ju-Ni's scanlations; that way we won't have six of the same quote, just from different scanlations. You must list not only the chapter, but the specific page number(s). For episodes, provide a link to the episode and list the approximate time the quote was said at. Quotes without references will be removed.

For a quote to count, it must have been said by one person with as little interruption from other characters as possible. It must be easily understandable without the context of the quote provided. Unnecessarily lengthy quotes will be removed.

The quote must have been featured in a chapter or anime episode (either a new Japanese episode or newly dubbed English episode) released this month.

Posting quotes before the release of the new chapter or episode in English is in violation of the Spoiler Policy. DON'T DO IT!

Gin Ichimaru: Aizen's True Strength
"Every single ability Captain Aizen has is leagues beyond what anyone else can do. "Watch out for Kyouka Suigetsu"? No good. Too careless. "Watch out for everything else", then? No good. Still too careless. You could watch out for the sky falling on your heads and the earth tearing beneath your feet. You could prepare for every last eventuality your combined mental resources can imagine and Captain Aizen's abilities would still be way beyond you." -- Gin Ichimaru thinking to himself from Chapter 390
 * 1)  I think this one must become featured quote of the month, because it isn't some senseless chatter about Aizen, but there's some depth in it what makes it really attractive. It is a beautifull and wonderfull talk over how you can't really warn someone for true strenght of Aizen. And even if this wasn't said by Gin, I would still vote for this one because of the depth in it. You don't have to agree with me, this is just my opinion. Thanks for reading and succes with choosing your favourite vote ;-).Almatsumoto 16:31, February 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2)  After the devastation caused in chapter 392 i think this is incredibly potent and stands as the utter truth in light of the captains defeat by Aizen. This is not a boast of power nor a threat shouted in the heat of battle, merely an observation of the situation at hand. Nick D Wolfwood 12:08, February 22, 2010 (UTC)

Sōsuke Aizen: Shinigami Precepts
"Do not seek out beauty in battle. Do not seek out virtue in death. Do not think of your life as your own. If you desire to protect that which must be protected, then cut down your foe from behind." -- Sōsuke Aizen to Soifon from Chapter 391


 * 1) I think this is a very important quote. All to often in fandom the fact that certain characters strike from the back are equated to cowardice or even weakness. However, what this quote demonstrates is that Shinigami are taught to strike from the back. Prior to this, this fact was only alluded to back in Chapter 3 when Rukia was trying to teach Ichigo to strike hollows from the back. She explained later in the chapter that it was to keep the Shinigami safe and the dispose of the hollow quickly (as well as to stop the Shinigami from thinking too much of the human the hollow used to be). This quote harkens back to that chapter and reinforces the fact that the Shinigami aren't there to seek glory, enjoy battle or anything of the short. They are there to protect and for that, they will use the most efficient mode of fighting. Which is often, striking from the back. Only Shinigami who have not gone through the "system" or are primarily motivated by some other desire, such as Kenpachi and his love of fighting, strike from the front. If you tried to explain to a shinigami such as Kyoraku that you believed backstabbing was an act of cowardice or weakness, they would probably look at you blankly and wonder what was so brave about endangering the lives of innocents because you wanted to strut your stuff.

 * 2) The reasoning of Tinni's logic is...very compelling. I do not have much else to add (because Tinni did such a thorough job on explaining) other than I agree with Tinni. - Mr. N 03:11, February 22, 2010 (UTC)
