i never said who would win in a battle between the two, besides this could be argued vice versa anyway...

i was merely pointing out the fact that since Starrk is the Primera it would be safe to assume that he is more powerful than the Segunda...

Starrk was already very powerful even before Aizen met him, so powerful it made him lonely since hollows died by merely being in his presence...

looking back, another difference between the top two Espadas could be seen on how they were recruited...

Barragan was forced to comply with Aizen after he decimated his so called army in a single move...

Starrk joining Aizen was more his choice as he was seeking companions that time, the only prerequisite that they be strong enough to survive being with him, there was no coercion at all on the part of Aizen...

That's because Baraggan was arrogant and belligerent, and didn't like Aizen. Starrk wanted companionship. The way they were recruited is no indication of their power, only their personalities.

I'm unsure, but i've noted his weapons in the past is different to his current weapon shape-wise. I'm guessing they can't control it's shape.

Assumnig that to be true, since their weapons contain their true powers i'm only left to summerise his power changed so much it's even visible. Hence why i think he could be a VL. That would also explain how he's risen in the ranks.


Yes Ulquiorra seems like a likely candidate, as Neliel knew his name when they met. While this is inconsistent with her memory loss, she didn't seem to know the other espada. So i can only summerise she knew of him before, and for reason X she remembered about Ulquiorra.

Grimmjow is one of the 'oldest' Arrancar's in Aizen's army. He was the 12th Numeros iirc. Meaning only Shawlong was 'older'. I think that means that he was one of the first ones to be drafted or converted...

There is indeed a shape change. He gained another crescent on his weapon, and he did indeed become more powerful as time went by (that was one of his goals iirc), so your theory is plausible.
Though that's not what I was referring to. He could only be a Vasto Lorde if he were a Menos/Hollow. If you are talking about Vasto Lorde level power, then sure.

True say. I think she also knew Grimmjow's name? Seeing as Grimmjow was one of the oldest numeros, and presumably the most powerful for some time, I'd say that he was in the Espada. He could probably have been #2.


Damn post-at-the-bottom-of-the-page situation.

i agree...

i still think that Starrk's reasons for entering the Espada is still a testament to his power...

I guess because he was killing all other Hollows... we don't know how strong they were though, but they could not have been Vasto Lordes, and probably weren't Adjuchas either because then his pressure would have killed the weaker shinigami during his battle. I'm inclined to think they weren't menos at all and were just some no-name hollows since Lilynette is apparently weaker than a Gillian.

Still a good feat to his credit, mind you. But no reason to think Hollows like Baraggan were totally outclassed.

of course...

i just think it's badass to kill hollows, fodder or not, with your mere presence, like the paladin's aura in diablo 2...

It's entirely up to speculation at this point. So we can speculate that Starrk didn't know how to properly control his reiatsu at that point, but did learn how to do so some time after joining Aizen. Lilynette never died probably due to the fact that she was his Zanpakutou in a manner of speaking.

You know i've often been curious, who do you suppose was above Neliel when she was 3?


At the end of anime episodes. you can probably youtube it
I thought only a pure Hollow could "evolve?" Why is Nel? She has not shown to be anywhere near as powerful as Ulquiorra, Barragan, or Starrk, and was only the third Espada of a weaker generation, where she was only a little stronger than current Nnoitra.

Well assuming Starrk and Barragan were around back then, they would definately be above her. Nel as well. Maybe Halibel, though I remain unimpressed by her.

(I assume EA is referring to power level when she says VL, as there is no way an Arrancar can become a VL, that's like an impossible devolution in status, going from an Arrancar to Hollow)

EA believes that Nnoitra gained VL level power. As pre-child Nel was stronger than current Nnoitra, logically, she should have at least VL-level power.

You are correct. I pointed this out earlier. Lilynette was weaker than a Gillian...yet, she didn't die.

So, we know that the hollows he was killing were all very low level hollows.

She was his 'zanpakutou' though.

That is under the assumption Nnoitra has VL power, or near it, he is vastly inferior to Ulquiorra, Starrk, and Barragan.

Well what you said truly is why i suspect Nel is a VL.

Why else would Aizen send her looking for VL's if she was incapable of capturing one, or being too weak to reason with one?

1. Ah, that is true, but you must consider that she was already an Arrancar by then, increasing her power, she could have merely been an Adjuchas, but after being powered was of a Vasto Lorde level, which I do not doubt.

2. Nnoitra is a physical combatant, that is his specialty as well.

3. I have made thread derailment an art form hun, you know that.

The way I see it, Nnoitra has enough power to qualify as a VL (in power), such that he is at least a low-level 'VL'.

The other three you mentioned are leagues beyond any of the other Arrancar we've seen. High level VL's if you will.

I blame you both.

Grimmjow wins! He's much cooler than that stuck-up pretty-boy.

1. Hmmm, i see, but she's still of VL power level, even supposing she previously was not one. Either way, i gather you agree with my point.

2. True, but so are most current top bleach characters (?)

3. That you may have, but between us, are are making it a sport!

yes...I even stated why stick out tongue (edited).
Personal opinion, woman. It's the core of our debates, and it's mostly why we all disagree at times.

Your reason is wrong on the grounds it sucks!

Byakuya wins because his sword turns pinks..... blatantly a winning factor.

You're wrong there m'lady.
Grimmjow's is blue I might add. Which is as much WIN as pink. So Blue's WIN cancels out Pinks' WIN, which leaves just kewlness. Ergo, Grimmjow wins!
