In the fictional Bleach manga / anime universe, a Hollow ( 虚 ( ホロウ ) , Horō ) is a type of monstrous lost soul who can harm both ghosts and humans. Many of the series' antagonists are hollows . Some hollows possess the characteristics called Arrancars ( 破面 ( アランカル ) , Arankaru , from Spanish arrancar "to tear off," kanji translates as "broken mask") that are similar to those of a Soul Reaper (a death-related entity). One of the series' main storylines has Sōsuke Aizen (the primary antagonist for the majority of the series) and his arrancar (particularly the ten strongest Espadas) as the force opposing the protagonists.

570-601: A battle, though it is unclear if Ulquiorra is conscious of this habit. Ulquiorra is very analytical: he almost accurately theorizes the means behind Orihime Inoue 's abilities, and recognizes that Ichigo Kurosaki 's power constantly fluctuates between very weak to greater than his own strength. He also refrains from killing a person unless necessary, twice sparing Ichigo and proclaiming he would not harm Orihime because he had not been ordered to. He can replay events he has seen to others by removing and crushing his left eye, which turns into dust and flows around those to whom Ulquiorra

665-402: A broken helmet with a curved horn and covers the left half of his head. His hollow hole has moved since his first appearance; when first introduced it is at the base of his neck, but in later appearances, it is centered just below his collarbone. Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez notes that Ulquiorra tends to stab opponents in the same location as his hollow hole whenever he is particularly interested in

760-515: A cartoonish skull on the top of her head. She is really the former 3rd Espada, resembling a full-grown woman with a ram-horned version of her hollow mask and bearing a large "3" tattooed on her back. Compared to the other Espadas, having empathy for the least fortunate hollows that remain as feral monsters, Nelliel has a sense of honor and respect for her opponents who she sees as warriors and only kills with good reason. This ideology results with her being attacked by Nnoitra Gilga from behind as part of

855-573: A dimension called Hueco Mundo ( 虚圏 ( ウェコムンド ) , Weko Mundo , Spanish for "Hollow World," kanji translates as "Hollow Domain") , a vast barren desert with quartz "trees" which any hollow can access, leave and return to by tearing a hole in space called a Garganta . While in Hueco Mundo, most hollows can sate their hunger simply by breathing the reishi -rich air, and are threatened only by other hollows who have turned to cannibalism , conquest for power and sport, or both. Hueco Mundo

Halibel then engages Tōshirō and

The Espadas ( 十刃 ( エスパーダ ) , Esupāda , Spanish for "sword", kanji translates as "ten blades") are an order of ten Arrancar who are

1140-497: A furniture designer named Patricia Urquiola or a variation of "the one who cries" in Spanish which is El Que Llora. As an albino hollow ostracized by other dark-colored hollows, Ulquiorra is revealed in side stories to have come into being as a Vasto Lorde ages ago before the balance of life and death was established where hollows manifested from the chaotic influx rather than from human souls. As an Espada member who represents

1235-765: A glowing colored projectile made of solidified reiatsu that is described as being weaker than cero but is twenty times faster, and hierro ( 鋼皮 ( イエロ ) , iero , Spanish for "iron," kanji translates as "steel skin") a defensive technique which hardens their skin to the point that they can catch blades bare-handed. While possessing their zanpakutō ( 斬魄刀 , lit. "soul-cutting sword") like Soul Reapers, arrancar zanpakutōs are meant to contain their full power with some manifesting in other forms besides swords. When an arrancar uses Resurrección ( 帰刃 ( レスレクシオン ) , Resurekushion , Spanish for "resurrection", kanji translates as "returning blade") to absorb its zanpakutō to use its full power, it transforms into

1330-533: A good fight.

1425-572: A hovering crowned lich , and manifests his original hollow form's weapon, a larger axe named Gran Caída ( 滅亡の斧 ( グラン・カイダ ) , Guran Kaida , Spanish for "Great Fall," kanji translates as "Downfallen Axe") . In this form, Baraggan's aging powers are intensified to the point where everything around him is continuously rotting away and being totally destroyed (because of this, almost no attacks ever touch him), and he can exhale Respira ( 死の息吹 ( レスピラ ) , Resupira , Spanish for "breathe", kanji translates as "Breath of Death") ,

1520-531: A left eyepiece resembling Lilynette's mask fragment. Starrk takes on some of Lilynette's personality quirks, becoming more vocal and short tempered.

Nnoitra wears a large eye-patch that covers most of the left side of his face, where the remnants of his hollow mask (a small set of jawbones and teeth) and his hollow hole are located. Nnoitra has the strongest hierro of any Espada, dense enough that most attacks have little effect on him, and this makes him the most durable Espada (except for

1900-483: A massive pata , which resembles an elongated shark tooth. Her strength and speed are increased in this state, evident by the charge and blow she delivers to Tōshirō Hitsugaya , severing a large portion of his upper-body before he could even react (though this was later revealed to be a clone of Hitsugaya made of ice). She is able to conjure and control large amounts of water to perform attacks in this form. Her battle with Tōshirō starts off in her favor, but soon levels to

After all of his Fracciones are killed, Baraggan engages Soi Fon and Omaeda personally, temporarily gaining

But Ichigo, not intending the fight to result in this manner refuses to. As he dies, Ulquiorra comes to understand the meaning of "heart" when an unafraid Orihime reaches out to him as his body dissolves into

2375-788: A stronger Cero variety called Cero Oscuras ( 黒虚閃 ( セロ・オスキュラス ) , Sero Osukyurasu , Spanish for "Dark Zero", kanji translates as "Black Hollow Flash") ; Ulquiorra claimed that all Espadas can supposedly use it upon release, but he is the only one who ever used it.

2660-433: A vest over bare skin and loose pants, and sports blue hair in a style popularized by Billy Idol . A still-articulated right jawbone is all that remains of Grimmjow's hollow mask, and his hollow hole is located on his abdomen.

When released, all the reiatsu he has conserved beforehand will be unleashed, granting him the rank 0 (assuming he has conserved enough reiatsu ), causing Yammy's size and power to increase dramatically as he takes on the form of an incredibly gigantic, multi-legged Ankylosaurus -like centaur . In this form, Yammy can easily crush Soul Reapers with one of his huge hands, create extremely massive ceros , and boasts being stronger than Ulqiuorra, Nnoitra, and Grimmjow combined. Furthermore, Yammy may gain additional sequential transformations whenever his rage becomes high enough, these forms resembling different animals, with each form much more powerful and titanic than

2850-460: Is Lilinette Gingerbuck ( リリネット・ジンジャーバック , Ririnetto Jinjābakku , romanized as Lilynette Gingerbuck in the Japanese media) , who is actually a part of him.

Though Starrk does not remember their original hollow form,

However, Starrk's and Lilinette's true ability is to splinter portions of their spirit to create an army of powerful spirit energy wolves that obey their creator's commands and detonate at will. These wolves can also teleport, and they bite Starrk's targets to keep them from escaping. Once they explode or are hit by an attack, they instantly reform, and therefore they are virtually indestructible; however, in
