Talk:Ulquiorra Cifer

Appearance Segunda Etapa
It's now stated that he has bat ears in his segunda etapa, but aren't it horns? He never moves them, he had hornlike things in every other form and when a part of it was chopped of by hollowfied Ichigo, it seems bonelike. Approval to change it?Empty moon (talk) 16:55, November 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * They are ears. Ulquiorra's releases are based on a bat. Bat's have ears. They were more organic than the horn he had unreleased.--

In the anime(Episode 272) when Ulquiorra was in his Segunda Etapa and was fighting against Ichigo in his full hollow form and Ichigo\Hollow Ichigo cut Ulquiorra's bat ear\horn it didn't bleed and the ear\horn shined in air and an ear bleed and doesn't shine. It was more like an horn shaped like a bat ear. Even if Ulquiorra's releases are based on a bat it doesn't necessarily mean that they are ears. --Vampir95 (talk) 12:44, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

They are bat ears. Just take a closer look.--Blossom Tree (talk) 00:08, May 5, 2012 (UTC)

Name
Should it be added to his trivia his name is derived from 'Patricia Urquiola' or is this speculation? We know al Espada names are inspired by architects and since it's stated in Grimmjow's trivia his name is derived from Grimshaw, we should add it here also.Empty moon (talk) 16:59, November 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * No, that was removed a while ago. Kubo only said he derived Grimmjow's name from Grimshaw. He never said anything about the rest, hence we removed it as it is speculative.--

Nope Kubo stated it in "Masked" the 2nd character book!

If he did say it, we probably wouldn't add it. When Kubo explained the origin of Grimmjow's name, it wasn't added as trivia, so I don't think we need to do anything like that for Ulquiorra.--Blossom Tree (talk) 00:04, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

Pre-Arrancar Ulquiorra?
Can anyone confirm if this is real? It was on the wiki when news of UNMASKED first came out, but it was taken off shortly after. I didn't know if it was real, but I copied it onto my computer because it was cool either way. If this is real, I'll add it to his image gallery, though I might need help regarding the legal stuff (completely ignorant). Daisuke Hikari (talk) 03:41, April 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * That was the picture given in Unmasked of his Hollow Form, yes.--

Okay, well, I'd post a version without the white space, but the site keeps telling me "File type verification error." How do I fix that? Daisuke Hikari (talk) 03:49, April 6, 2012 (UTC)

do we make a history section on Ulquiorra's page for the information in unmasked?--Blossom Tree (talk) 02:35, April 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * There is almost nothing to add. All that was said in Unmasked was that he felt lonely and then a tree fell on him. The rest is all just Ulquiorra rambling in his nihilistic ways about how lonely he was.--

Yes there is. He was born in Hueco Mundo, and it also gives us his pre arrancar appearance. It should be on the wiki. So should the fact he fell on a tree, and that he was white and his brethren were black. Seriously, it is important really, it is not for us to decide whether or not something is important whether it be nihilistic rambling or not. If it is kept speculation free I think a history and updated appearance section would be very good. And maybe some quotations too. It is probably all we are getting in terms of a back story from Kubo. It also appears he was a very Humanoid hollow, drawing the question of whether he was a Menos, or a Vasto Lordes (not that we could speculate) Oliverfalcon (talk) 21:21, April 7, 2012 (UTC)


 * Agreed. We totally need a history section for Ulquiorra. I tried to add something to that tune a while ago but got rejected. He also was quite obviously a Vasto Lorde class Menos, judging by his appearance and by how the manga switches to him right after Hitsugaya tells the heroes about Vasto Lordes. We don't need to include it if it's against the policy or considered "speculation", but the hint's pretty clear to me. Kubo doesn't explain everything explicitly, he counts on his readers' intelligence. Xfing (talk) 23:54, April 7, 2012 (UTC)

I kind of want to as well, but Godisme has a point. The info Kubo gave in Unmasked for Ulquiorra would probably only make three sentences in a history section.--Blossom Tree (talk) 00:01, April 8, 2012 (UTC)
 * Ive made the history section and appearance changes. That is all there is to add.--

I don't really think that the tree fell on him. In unmasked, it showed Ulquiorra sinking himself into the branches of the tree and breaking part of his mask in the process.--Blossom Tree (talk) 01:29, April 8, 2012 (UTC)

I updated the History section with a more expanded version of the story, free of speculation and conforming to manual of style. I also added a medium-res image directly from the scans of Unmasked. The appearance section is good, but some quotes would be nice Oliverfalcon (talk) 22:38, April 8, 2012 (UTC)
