History Characters / BleachThree

* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: In a parallel to Ichigo and Grimmjow's rivalry, Loly stops cowering and tries to fight Yammy off when he's about to attack Orihime, yelling at him for messing with "her prey". Doesn't work out.

* TomboyAndGirlyGirl: In appearance, Menoly is the tomboy, the tomboy, Loly is the girly girl; opposite in personality.

* {{Yandere}}: Loly, again, and HOW!.

* CompleteMonster: A remarkable {{Deconstruction}}. If you get in his way, he'll kill you out of annoyance. If you're not in his way, he will pick a fight with you for fun. If you don't fight back, he'll physicaly torture you to death. If you are wounded and weak, he'll keep up the torture until he gets bored and finishes you off. While you're fighting him, he'll cheat his way into winning at every chance he sees. He wants to die in battle and highly enjoys beating the shit out of people that can't fight back in the meantime. And God help you if you're a woman not named Harribel. He lacks any redeeming quality, but his psychology makes him pitiable, rather than utterly detestable, and well-executed AlternateCharacterInterpretation gives more depth to him than most monsters. [[invoked]]

* CompleteMonster: His image-poem [[LampshadeHanging alludes]] that he's ''aiming to be one'', and since he was one of only two Espada that went to Hell after his death, he's certainly succeeded. [[invoked]]
-->''"Tell me I'm the thing you hate the most in this world."''
** That said, he's also one of the first three Espada to ''die'', so it's not so much that they were the ''only'' ones to go to Hell as they were the ''first'' to go to Hell (though this was only shown in the fourth movie, and the movies' canon status is debated).
** [[spoiler: Was a complete monster in life when he was an alchemist who experimented on people his brother captured.]]

* CompleteMonster: Apparently, he was so bad that [[InvokedTrope he actually went to Hell once he died]].

* CompleteMonster: [[invoked]] He mass-murders tons of innocent humans, and deliberately suffocates Tatsuki with his presence by waling up to her. Once he loses an arm to a fight, it gets reattached by a nurse. He wants to see if it works, so he bashes in her skull and mumbles that if it really was at full strength, he would've split her in half. After that, he punches Menoly through a wall while she had her back turned, and brutalizes Loly when she was protecting Orihime from him. The kicker? He's a deconstruction - the man is personally treated as a joke, but his actions are never played as such.

* HoistByHisOwnPetard: [[spoiler: Using Gabriel on Nemu was a bad idea!]]

* BoobsOfSteel: Covered up, but still noticeable.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome: Ishida's opinion of Pesche's zanpakutou ''Ultima''. Considering ''where'' he keeps it, probably crosses into [[FreudWasRight What Do You Mean, It's Not Freudian?]] as well.
-->'''Szayelaporro''': What are you trying to pull from there?!?!

** Similarly, the off-screen fight against him and Kenpachi and Byakuya, in which Yammy gets his ass kicked, although both Kenpachi and Byakuya [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotHeinous lost their captains' jackets]], and it lasted over an hour.

** Similarly, the off-screen fight against him and Kenpachi and Byakuya, in which Yammy gets his ass kicked, although both Kenpachi and Byakuya came out of the fight heavily injured, and it lasted over an hour.

* MarathonBoss: While he might not have looked like much, Yammy still fought with [[spoiler:Byakuya and Kenpachi]] for over an hour, and heavily injured them [[spoiler: before his death.]] In terms of fights based on manga time, he fought the longest out of any antagonist.

* EyeScream: His eyes can be removed and crushed to display his memories. The eye restores itself later, and is apparently not painful.

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: The defining theme of his CharacterDevelopment is his lack of ability to understand why ANY of the heroes continue fighting for Orihime when they shouldn't be able to win, and their allies keep falling. When she explains that this is due to the connections their hearts share he is even more confused. It's a point which he questions over and over again, to Orihime and at one instance, even Ichigo.
-->"You're a fool, Kurosaki Ichigo. You fear my power, yet you still fight as if you think you can win. I don't understand you. If this is because of what you humans call a heart, then it is because of your hearts that humans feel pain. It's because of your hearts that you die."
** He expresses a similar lack of understanding towards friendship and possibly love. See the WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove entry farther below.

* FashionVictimVillain: His absurdly high collar as mentioned below, his absurd M.C. Hammer esque pants and his pointy boots.

* AFatherToHisMen

Characters that appeared in Tite Kubo's ''{{Bleach}}''. [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters There are so many]] that [[UpToEleven they occupy eight pages]]. This page deals with the Arrancars.

* EvilCounterpart: Similar in many ways to Kenpachi as a bloodthirsty, fight-loving psycho with the desire to fight strong enemies, but Nnoitra is strongly distinguished by his lecherous, petty, and arrogant characterization. The core of their axcraziness is also different: Kenpachi fights for fun, Nnoitra is a DeathSeeker; Nnoitra is obsessed with proving he is the strongest, Kenpachi ''loves'' finding out the opponent might be stronger than him. A visual parallel is also drawn with Nnoitra's eyepatch, which is later replaced with a scar identical to Kenpachi's after taking a strong slash to the face and chest. And Nnoitra, while not neccesarily ''cowardly'', is completely OK with attacking an enemy when they are exhausted or their guard is down (and actually thinks not doing so is the height of stupidity), whereas Zaraki always gives his opponents a fighting chance, to the point of handicapping himself so he doesn't [[CurbStompBattle curb stomp]] every enemy.

* EvilCounterpart: Zig-zagged with Mayuri, since you could make the case that Syazel is the lesser of the evils. The main difference is that Mayuri does what he does in pursuit of knowledge and improvement, while Syazel thinks he's perfect and stagnated, having no real goals other than pointless sadism.

* {{Irony}}: His only sense as a Vasto Lorde was sight. His released form is bat-like.

* {{Immortality}}: His ''Gabriel'' power qualifies for Types IV and X (Resurrective and Vampiric), as it essentially allows him to '''invade any convenient host that had maintained physical contact with him during his death, devour the victim from the inside to reconstruct his original body (horribly emaciating said victim to near-death), and then [[OrificeEvacuation burst fully-grown from the victim's mouth]]'''. The aforementioned original BodyHorror depiction in the manga was toned down for the anime.

* NotWorthKilling: Spare's Chad's life after defeating him, explaining to Tesra that he's not going to waste energy finishing off someone who's as good as dead already.

* NobleDemon: Possibly. He certainly didn't ''need'' to tell Chad that Nnoitra was trying to sneak up on him. Even before he tells Chad to give up as he views him as a WorthyOpponent.

* NotWorthKilling: Spare's Chad's life after defeating him, explaining to Tesra that he's not going to waste energy finishing of someone who's as good as dead already.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: It says something when he's not included in Stark's thoughts about his TrueCompanions [[spoiler: when he dies]], which included [[CompleteMonster Szayel, Nnoitra and Aarroniero]] of all people.

* NobleDemon: Possibly. He certainly didn't ''need'' to tell Chad that :Nnoitra was trying to sneak up on him. Even before he tells Chad to give up as he views him as a WorthyOpponent.

* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: At the very end of his fight with Sado, Demoura spat out his long, snake-like tongue at his opponent. Didn't do shit either, which somehow [[DoubleInnuendo furthers the length]] of the implications.

* AnimalMotifs: Ggio Vega: Tiger

* AnimalMotif: Apacci: Deer

* {{Tsundere}}: How Apacci treats Kukapurro in "Nestle to Night".

* InfernalRetaliation: [[spoiler: Explodes after being killed]].

* PsychopathicManchild: The guy would rather play with dragonflies and with other people's hats than go out in missions. [[spoiler:At first, at least...]].

* {{Tykebomb}}: Sort of. It's unlikely that he's actually a child (in terms of age) but he looks like it and more importantly was born/created and "raised" just to [[spoiler:fight against Yamamoto]].

* [[spoiler:SacrificialLamb: In the anime, her death only serves to further break Starrk's resolve]].

* TheOtherDarrin: Was originally voiced by Steven Jay Blum for a videogame. Most fans were, strangely, angered about it, [[FridgeLogic even though Steven was hitting the range the Japanese Ulquiorra went for,]] [[BrokenBase dispite claims much later that Ulquiorra's voice was too high or sounded off.]]
* TheRival: Ended up as one to Ichigo.

* HiddenDepths: An Omake reveals that playing chess is his favorite hobby. [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ChessWithDeath Quite fitting given he is the embodiment of death itself]].

* HiddenDepths: An Omake reveals that playing chess is his favorite hobby.

* NormallyIWouldBeDeadNow: An arm, his legs, and his digestive track, kidneys, bladder, and whatever was at his waist, plus a wing and his horns(leaving a little bit left of his right). If we count the panels onward from when he "woke up", he survived 17 pages until he started turning into ash, and fully died five pages afterwards. This translates into roughly ''77 panels until he died'', or just until he started turning into ash. This bastard is an ImplacableMan ''among'' Implacable Men.

* TheOtherDarrin: Was originally voiced by Steven Jay Blum for a videogame. Most fans were, strangely, angered about it, [[FridgeLogic even though Steven was hitting the range the Japanese Ulquiorra went for, dispite claims much later that Ulquiorra's voice was too high or sounded off.]]

*** Possible explanation is that, hidden agenda or not, he is still loyal to Aisen. And Aisen, as we learn later, needed Ichigo to become stronger, not be finished off.

* TokenGoodTeammate: Doesn't seem to possess any malice, fights to protect his allies and would rather not fight at all. Motivation? Practically the same thing as any shonen protagonist. People watching his fight occasionally forget he's supposed to be the bad guy.
** The only reason why the[[BlackAndGrayMorality "good guys"]] fight him is because one of his nakama is trying to kill thousands of people. [[CaptainObvious Pretty good reason though.]]
