* DrivenToVillainy: After becoming a Soul Reaper and being [[InnocentlyInsensitive rejected]] by Mari, Aizen was taken under [[MagnificentBastard Treva's]] wing. Treva took Aizen's problems and [[ManipulativeBastard picked away at them]] to make Aizen out to be who he is today.

* GoKartingWithBowser: Depsite the fact that he and Lelouch are engaged in a game of XanatosSpeedChess spanning across several decades, they can still play a friendly game of chess.

* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Aizen's murder of the Central 46 allowed [[spoiler: for Lelouch to be acquitted of his crimes by the remaining captains]].
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: In his youth Aizen was mistrusted because of his immense power and just doing what he could to help others, expecting nothing in return. See DrivenToVillainy above to see what happened next.

!! Talbumosuke Atrumier
Talbumosuke is an original character created by the author. The son of the head of the Atrumier family, a lesser noble family underneath the Kuchikis. Talbumosuke is often called Aizen's Apprentice by the author where, in contrast to Momo, knows full well Aizen's true intentions and studies under the man becoming a sort of backup plan in case Aizen fails. [[spoiler: It turns out this was a well conceived plan]]. He has wildly styled black hair and piercing red eyes. Talbumosuke's Shikai is called Jikan Kami and his Bankai is called Choro Kami no Jikan to Kukan.
* AFatherToHisMen: In contrast to Aizen, Talbumosuke gets along quite well with the espada.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Proven in his fight against [[spoiler: Baraggan]].

* UnstoppableRage: {{Invoked}} when [[spoiler:Mia dies in the Second Battle of Karakura Town]].
* UnskilledButStrong: Though he works hard to fix the unskilled part it only goes as far as his battle technique. He can't plan worth crap in comparison to [[TheChessmaster Le]][[WeakButSkilled louch]]. While that served him well in round one, when he had the element of surprise against the Soul Society his AttackAttackAttack strategy [[spoiler: with the Segunda Etapas]] really didn’t go over too well once Lelouch had his thoughts and tactics nailed down and ultimately [[spoiler: he was beaten because of his lack of foresight and let Gin get the drop on him]].
!! Takeno Konda
The lead judge of the Central Forty Six after their reformation after their predecessors were killed by Aizen. While it is the entire Central Forty Six is more or less Lelouch's enemy in the Lelouch and the Law arc, it is Takeno who serves as the BigBad and faces off against Lelouch in court.
* ManipulativeBastard: Tries to get [[spoiler:Orihime]] to discredit Lelouch [[MagnificentBastard because of]] [[ManipulativeBastard who he]] [[NobleDemon is]]
* VillainousBreakdown: In a way that only an arc that brings out the Courtroom hijinks found in the AceAttorney series can provide.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy: Possibly. He's considered much younger than the majority of the Central Forty Six so he may be a Bishoen.
!! Muramasa
A wandering Zanpakuto with the special ability to free other Zanpakuto from their masters and [[BrainwashedAndCrazy turn them against their wielders]]. His desire is to create rebellion and create a world where it is the [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou Zanpakuto that control the Soul Reapers]]. As it stands Muramasa killed his own wielder [[spoiler: [[ILied Or not]]. His wielder was sealed, so Muramasa [[XanatosGambit orchestrated the rebellion so he could find the seal and undo it]].]]
* BadBoss: Destroys Loly and Menoly's Zanpakuto after he uses them to off their wielders. Possibly justified in that he doesn't fully understand arrancar fully.
* [[spoiler: FaceDeathWithDignity]]
* KnightOfCerebus: Okay yeah the series was already pretty serious once the Eye of the Storm arc kicked off and [[spoiler: Talbumosuke took the stage and proved to be a very effective villain]], but the author jacked up the drama and the heartstring pulling when the Reapers and Heralds arc started. For more information see ItGotWorse on the main page. [[spoiler: Not to mention the [[TearJerker brutal beating Yachiru received]] and [[IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten Byakuya's]] [[KillTheOnesYouLove Loyalty Test]].]]
* KickTheSonOfABitch: Yes, we know Loly and Menoly are busted up over [[spoiler: Mia's death]] doesn't even come close to justifying their actions.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: His separation of Lelouch and Eien Tamashi later comes to have the result of [[spoiler: Lelouch mastering his geass]].
* YouRemindMeOfX: Thinks this of [[spoiler: Lelouch]] in regards to his master [[spoiler: Koga]].
!! Shuren Kenzo
A Togabito. He is #188. He wishes to escape from hell. Wields the magic Book of Volcarona. Without the book he is only as strong as #200.
* [[spoiler: BigBadDuumvirate]]: Of the Different Bonds arc. Unlike the movie where he was [[spoiler: A BigBadWannabe Shuren and Kokuto are working together]].
* EpicFail: He tries to incinerate Ichigo with a lava geyser, but the atmosphere is so cold that the geyser freezes solid. Shuren [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] his stupidity.
* TomeOfEldritchLore: The Book of Volcarona.
** SummoningArtifact: for DemBones
** KillItWithFire: Fire burn and fire roar. Total destruction from mountain to shore. [[TheSmurfs Sounds vaguely familiar]]
* VillainDecay: He was a very competent BigBad[[spoiler:[[BigBadDuumvirate Duumvirate]]]] in the Different Bonds arc, but in the [[spoiler: Aizen’s Revenge]] arc when he tries to get revenge [[spoiler: Mari]] fells him with a single blow.
!! Kokuto [[spoiler: Shapikni]]
A Togabito. He is #187. His only weapons are the [[ChainedByFashion chains used to bind him]] and a [[CoolSword black blade]]. [[spoiler: Susanna is his sister]].
* [[spoiler: BigBadDuumvirate]]: Of the Different Bonds arc. Unlike the movie [[spoiler: Kokuto and Shuren are working together]].
* [[spoiler: LoveMakesYouEvil: With some IncestSubtext thrown in if you read between the lines]]
* [[spoiler: MySisterIsOffLimits]]: To everyone and everything. Kokuto will let not a single person [[spoiler: get anywhere near his sister]].
* [[spoiler: XanatosGambit: He and Shuren arrange everything to ensure that Ichigo will go into his ultimate hollow mode]].
!! Hollow Ichigo[=/=][[FanNickname Shirosaki]]
[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment The Hollow inside]] [[SupportingProtagonist Kurosaki Ichigo]]. Wants to take total control over his "King" and take that spot from him. The current antagonist of the Demon Within arc.
* BloodKnight
* CurbstompBattle: The only people that are not on the receiving end on this against him [[spoiler: when he goes into his OneWingedAngel form]] are [[spoiler: Kasumi and Yamamoto]]
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Sort of. While Ichigo [[spoiler: [[CurbStompBattle got his clock cleaned against]] [[FanNickname Hichi]]]] it was [[spoiler: his resolve]] that [[spoiler: was able to restrain Hichigo’s immense power and hold him in place]]. Hichigo tells Ichi that because of [[spoiler: his HeroicWillpower]] if Ichigo [[spoiler: still rejects Hichi’s power]] that Hichi will simply [[spoiler: boost his natural abilities]].
* DemonicPossession: Doesn't take a brian surgeon to know of who
* EnemyWithin
* HealingFactor: His [[spoiler: Resurreccion]] allows him for high speed regeneration
* HeroKiller: The Demon Within arc is setting him up to be this. WordOfGod says the ensuing battle will be like [[CurbstompBattle Doomsday against the Justice League]]
** [[spoiler: OH HOLY SHIT AND HOW! He takes out Ichigo (in his inner world), [[ZenSurvivor Ashido]], [[SwordMaster Stefan]], [[ImplacableMan Kenpachi]], [[AssholeVictim Gin, Mayuri]] and [[BewareTheNiceOnes Uno-]][[FourIsDeath FREAKING]][[MartialPacifist -hana]] in record time]].
*** He also comes heartpoundingly close to [[spoiler: killing Yamamoto]], but [[spoiler: Ichigo's HeroicWillpower puts a stop to it]].
* ImplacableMan: See NighInvulnerability below
* IShallTauntYou: He antagonizes Ichigo quite often to get him riled up. It's quite effective.
* LaughingMad: This guy could give TheJoker a run for his money
* [[spoiler: NighInvulnerability: Between his HealingFactor and ridiculously tough hierro, he becomes [[ImplacableMan very difficult to injure]]]]
* NoIAmBehindYou: Is very fond of pulling this tactic [[spoiler: While in his [[OneWingedAngel ultimate]] form since his sonido is so fast he slips right through his opponent’s reiatsu and gets behind them]].
* [[spoiler: OneWingedAngel: That form used in {{Bleach}} canon when Ichigo [[CurbStompBattle rips the mess]] out of Ulquiorra's Segunda Etapa]]
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Anytime Ichigo goes into [[spoiler: his [[OneWingedAngel Berserk Rage Hollow]] form]] that's [[spoiler: [[FanNickname Shirosaki]]]] [[DemonicPossession possessing]] [[spoiler: him]]. It's got about as much NighInvulnerability as, if not more than, [[DevilMayCry Dante's Majin form]]
* SuperPoweredEvilSide: see DemonicPossession above
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: A battle technique. Used it once to [[spoiler: [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impale]] Yamamoto]]
* TheBerserker
* UnskilledButStrong: While [[DemonicPossession taking possession]] of Ichigo and using [[spoiler: his [[OneWingedAngel berserk rage]] form]]
** According to WordOfGod this could be subverted if [[FanNickname Hichigo]] [[spoiler: becomes sentient while using said form]]. There were hints of this when [[spoiler: Talbumosuke did the same thing]].
!! Kugo Ginjo
A Fullbringer that is [[LateArrivalSpoiler also a former Substitute Soul Reaper]]. He is the leader of the Xcution group. [[spoiler: He stopped working for the Soul Society because they wouldn’t stop Natsumi, the soul Reaper that gave him his powers, and his mother, from being killed by the Inked Alliance. He cut his ties with the Soul Society and ceased doing his job. He swore vengeance on Ukitake]]. His Fullbring is the Cross of Scaffold. The necklace used to manifest his fullbring used to belong to his father.
* BigBad: Of the Fullbringer arc
* DisappearedDad: Ginjo's father passed away when he was young, though this doesn't affect Ginjo as much as Masaki's passing affects Ichigo. [[spoiler: See below for what ''does'' affect him]].
* [[spoiler: EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas[=/=]LoveMakesYouEvil: Why did he have a grudge against Soul Society? Because they didn't help out in stopping [[CompleteMonster the Inked Alliance]] from killing his mom and girlfriend, who was also a FORMER SHINIGAMI.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Suffers this after the death of Natsumi and his Mom]]
* LateArrivalSpoiler: In [[{{Bleach}} canon]] the fact that he's a former Substitute Soul Reaper is a big surprise, but here this fact is mentioned two whole arcs before Ginjo even gets any screen time. This is, of course, due to the fact that Lelouch has [[ShownTheirWork done his homework]]
* [[spoiler: RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Against the Inked Alliance as they killed his mom and his lover]].
* StartOfDarkness: See [[spoiler: EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas and LoveMakesYouEvil]] above.
* TeamDad: Seems to have a role like this given how he’s much older than any of the other fullbringers and he tells Yukio twice not to play his game at the dining table during breakfast.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Ginjo was a pretty cool guy until [[spoiler: Natsumi and his mother’s death]].
* [[spoiler: WellIntentionedExtremist]]
!! [[spoiler:Vasto Lorde Lelouch vi Britannia]]
[[spoiler: As Lelouch finds out, [[FishOutOfTemporalWater he is misplaced in time]] and actually will soon slay his hollow self who will pose quite a threat post-Zero Requiem]]
* VillainProtagonist: Assumes this role until he conflicts with [[spoiler: Captain of Squad 10]] [[HeroProtagonist Lelouch Lamperouge]]. Then he quickly switches roles.
The BigBad of {{Bleach}} sets himself up as Lelouch's ultimate rival very early on in the series soon becoming his driving antagonist as the two [[XanatosSpeedChess engage in a battle of wit, planning and strategy]] to see who will come out on top. [[spoiler: [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu Lelouch wins]] and Talbumosuke [[DragonAscendant takes over]] in Aizen's place. [[OhCrap He is back from Hell and is ABOUT to Attack Soul Society in the Aizen's Revenge arc.]]]]
* [[spoiler: BackFromTheDead: Sort of. He's in hell, but he's plotting to come out of it.]]
* {{Badass}}: [[spoiler: He is ranked #2 [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority in HELL]].]]
* [[spoiler: DiscOneFinalBoss: Lelouch [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu geass' him to commit suicide]] at the end of the Eye of the Storm arc and [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome it works]]. [[OhCrap His return on the other hand...]]]]
* DrivenToVillainy: After becoming a Soul Reaper and being [[InnocentlyInsensitive rejected]] by Mari, Aizen was taken under [[MagnificentBastard Treva's]] wing. Treva took Aizen's problems and [[ManipulativeBastard picked away at them]] to make Aizen out to be who he is today.
* EvenEvilHasStandards: He does not condone the destruction of the Soul Society, but he’s open to ruling it with an iron fist if he’s the one ruling it.
* EvilMentor: To Talbumosuke
* GoKartingWithBowser: Depsite the fact that he and Lelouch are engaged in a game of XanatosSpeedChess spanning across several decades, they can still play a friendly game of chess.
* HeroKiller: Obvious due to canon, but for this fic this '''[[WhamEpisode really]]''' became the case by killing [[spoiler:Captain-Commander Yamamoto.]]
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: Aizen's murder of the Central 46 allowed [[spoiler: for Lelouch to be acquitted of his crimes by the remaining captains]].
* NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished: In his youth Aizen was mistrusted because of his immense power and just doing what he could to help others, expecting nothing in return. See DrivenToVillainy above to see what happened next.
* PetTheDog: Though really it’s more of Aizen being a ManipulativeBastard as usual, but seeing him [[spoiler: help Nyra out]] still qualifies, despite his ulterior motives.
* {{Revenge}}: The basis of the entire [[spoiler: [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Aizen’s Revenge]] arc]].
* UsedToBeASweetKid: Uhhh, sort of. Aizen wasn't initially a maniacal mastermind, [[NoGoodDeedGoesUnpunished Just trying to be a nice guy]] but then [[InnocentlyInsensitive Mari broke his heart]] and [[MagnificentBastard Treva]] [[BeingGoodSucks got]] [[DrivenToVillainy involved]].
* [[spoiler: YourMindMakesItReal: His most notable ability in BANKAI.]]
!! Talbumosuke Atrumier
Talbumosuke is an original character created by the author. The son of the head of the Atrumier family, a lesser noble family underneath the Kuchikis. Talbumosuke is often called Aizen's Apprentice by the author where, in contrast to Momo, knows full well Aizen's true intentions and studies under the man becoming a sort of backup plan in case Aizen fails. [[spoiler: It turns out this was a well conceived plan]]. He has wildly styled black hair and piercing red eyes. Talbumosuke's Shikai is called Jikan Kami and his Bankai is called Choro Kami no Jikan to Kukan.
* AFatherToHisMen: In contrast to Aizen, Talbumosuke gets along quite well with the espada.
* AsskickingEqualsAuthority: Proven in his fight against [[spoiler: Baraggan]].
** Further proven with [[spoiler:his #3 rank in HELL]].
* BadBoss: [[YourMileageMayVary Toyed with]]. He is extremely tolerant of failure when compared to other villains, but he doesn't care much about the Espada. [[spoiler: Except for perhaps Mia. He is at the very least more benevolent than Aizen]].
* BatmanGambit: He figured Lelouch would try to wear him down, since that's the most logical conclusion against an enemy you have not the knowledge of their abilities, and he holds off on using his most powerful technique and his [[TimeStandsStill time stopping]] technique, which has a recharge period, until Lelouch [[spoiler: summoned the Visoreds]], which he knew [[spoiler: would happen because [[FridgeLogic otherwise Shinji would not have come to Hueco Mundo]].]]. And it worked.
* BerserkButton: Lelouch's very existence pisses him off. It's extremely justified since Lelouch [[spoiler: Had his house and family executed and [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu killed Aizen]]. They [[AssholeVictim deserved it]] most of them]].
* [[spoiler: BigBad: From Chapters 51-90.]]

** See ShootTheMedicFirst below
** He knows enough to not give away his ability to his enemies.
* DiabolusExMachina: His [[spoiler: transformation into a Resurreccion]] is easily this, but it’s quickly subverted when [[spoiler: Yamamoto proves he still has the upper hand]].
** Could be a DoubleSubversion since Talbumosuke can [[spoiler: with his Resurreccion now use his swords while Zecho no Sozo is active]]

* UndyingLoyalty: To Aizen. [[spoiler: Though it’s subverted during the revenge arc when Talbumosuke states that he [[EvenEvilHasLovedOnes must find Mia]] because they were separated. He does wish Aizen luck though]].
* UnstoppableRage: {{Invoked}} when [[spoiler:Mia dies in the Second Battle of Karakura Town]].
* UnskilledButStrong: Though he works hard to fix the unskilled part it only goes as far as his battle technique. He can't plan worth crap in comparison to [[TheChessmaster Le]][[WeakButSkilled louch]]. While that served him well in round one, when he had the element of surprise against the Soul Society his AttackAttackAttack strategy [[spoiler: with the Segunda Etapas]] really didn’t go over too well once Lelouch had his thoughts and tactics nailed down and ultimately [[spoiler: he was beaten because of his lack of foresight and let Gin get the drop on him]].
!! Takeno Konda
The lead judge of the Central Forty Six after their reformation after their predecessors were killed by Aizen. While it is the entire Central Forty Six is more or less Lelouch's enemy in the Lelouch and the Law arc, it is Takeno who serves as the BigBad and faces off against Lelouch in court.
* ManipulativeBastard: Tries to get [[spoiler:Orihime]] to discredit Lelouch [[MagnificentBastard because of]] [[ManipulativeBastard who he]] [[NobleDemon is]]
* VillainousBreakdown: In a way that only an arc that brings out the Courtroom hijinks found in the AceAttorney series can provide.
* WhiteHairedPrettyBoy: Possibly. He's considered much younger than the majority of the Central Forty Six so he may be a Bishoen.
!! Muramasa
A wandering Zanpakuto with the special ability to free other Zanpakuto from their masters and [[BrainwashedAndCrazy turn them against their wielders]]. His desire is to create rebellion and create a world where it is the [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou Zanpakuto that control the Soul Reapers]]. As it stands Muramasa killed his own wielder [[spoiler: [[ILied Or not]]. His wielder was sealed, so Muramasa [[XanatosGambit orchestrated the rebellion so he could find the seal and undo it]].]]
* BadBoss: Destroys Loly and Menoly's Zanpakuto after he uses them to off their wielders. Possibly justified in that he doesn't fully understand arrancar fully.
* [[spoiler: FaceDeathWithDignity]]
* KnightOfCerebus: Okay yeah the series was already pretty serious once the Eye of the Storm arc kicked off and [[spoiler: Talbumosuke took the stage and proved to be a very effective villain]], but the author jacked up the drama and the heartstring pulling when the Reapers and Heralds arc started. For more information see ItGotWorse on the main page. [[spoiler: Not to mention the [[TearJerker brutal beating Yachiru received]] and [[IfYoureSoEvilEatThisKitten Byakuya's]] [[KillTheOnesYouLove Loyalty Test]].]]
* KickTheSonOfABitch: Yes, we know Loly and Menoly are busted up over [[spoiler: Mia's death]] doesn't even come close to justifying their actions.
* NiceJobFixingItVillain: His separation of Lelouch and Eien Tamashi later comes to have the result of [[spoiler: Lelouch mastering his geass]].
* YouRemindMeOfX: Thinks this of [[spoiler: Lelouch]] in regards to his master [[spoiler: Koga]].
!! Shuren Kenzo
A Togabito. He is #188. He wishes to escape from hell. Wields the magic Book of Volcarona. Without the book he is only as strong as #200.
* [[spoiler: BigBadDuumvirate]]: Of the Different Bonds arc. Unlike the movie where he was [[spoiler: A BigBadWannabe Shuren and Kokuto are working together]].
* EpicFail: He tries to incinerate Ichigo with a lava geyser, but the atmosphere is so cold that the geyser freezes solid. Shuren [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] his stupidity.
* TomeOfEldritchLore: The Book of Volcarona.
** SummoningArtifact: for DemBones
** KillItWithFire: Fire burn and fire roar. Total destruction from mountain to shore. [[TheSmurfs Sounds vaguely familiar]]
* VillainDecay: He was a very competent BigBad[[spoiler:[[BigBadDuumvirate Duumvirate]]]] in the Different Bonds arc, but in the [[spoiler: Aizen’s Revenge]] arc when he tries to get revenge [[spoiler: Mari]] fells him with a single blow.
!! Kokuto [[spoiler: Shapikni]]
A Togabito. He is #187. His only weapons are the [[ChainedByFashion chains used to bind him]] and a [[CoolSword black blade]]. [[spoiler: Susanna is his sister]].
* [[spoiler: BigBadDuumvirate]]: Of the Different Bonds arc. Unlike the movie [[spoiler: Kokuto and Shuren are working together]].
* [[spoiler: LoveMakesYouEvil: With some IncestSubtext thrown in if you read between the lines]]
* [[spoiler: MySisterIsOffLimits]]: To everyone and everything. Kokuto will let not a single person [[spoiler: get anywhere near his sister]].
* [[spoiler: XanatosGambit: He and Shuren arrange everything to ensure that Ichigo will go into his ultimate hollow mode]].
!! Hollow Ichigo[=/=][[FanNickname Shirosaki]]
[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment The Hollow inside]] [[SupportingProtagonist Kurosaki Ichigo]]. Wants to take total control over his "King" and take that spot from him. The current antagonist of the Demon Within arc.
* BloodKnight
* CurbstompBattle: The only people that are not on the receiving end on this against him [[spoiler: when he goes into his OneWingedAngel form]] are [[spoiler: Kasumi and Yamamoto]]
* DefeatMeansFriendship: Sort of. While Ichigo [[spoiler: [[CurbStompBattle got his clock cleaned against]] [[FanNickname Hichi]]]] it was [[spoiler: his resolve]] that [[spoiler: was able to restrain Hichigo’s immense power and hold him in place]]. Hichigo tells Ichi that because of [[spoiler: his HeroicWillpower]] if Ichigo [[spoiler: still rejects Hichi’s power]] that Hichi will simply [[spoiler: boost his natural abilities]].
* DemonicPossession: Doesn't take a brian surgeon to know of who
* EnemyWithin
* HealingFactor: His [[spoiler: Resurreccion]] allows him for high speed regeneration
* HeroKiller: The Demon Within arc is setting him up to be this. WordOfGod says the ensuing battle will be like [[CurbstompBattle Doomsday against the Justice League]]
** [[spoiler: OH HOLY SHIT AND HOW! He takes out Ichigo (in his inner world), [[ZenSurvivor Ashido]], [[SwordMaster Stefan]], [[ImplacableMan Kenpachi]], [[AssholeVictim Gin, Mayuri]] and [[BewareTheNiceOnes Uno-]][[FourIsDeath FREAKING]][[MartialPacifist -hana]] in record time]].
*** He also comes heartpoundingly close to [[spoiler: killing Yamamoto]], but [[spoiler: Ichigo's HeroicWillpower puts a stop to it]].
* ImplacableMan: See NighInvulnerability below
* IShallTauntYou: He antagonizes Ichigo quite often to get him riled up. It's quite effective.
* LaughingMad: This guy could give TheJoker a run for his money
* [[spoiler: NighInvulnerability: Between his HealingFactor and ridiculously tough hierro, he becomes [[ImplacableMan very difficult to injure]]]]
* NoIAmBehindYou: Is very fond of pulling this tactic [[spoiler: While in his [[OneWingedAngel ultimate]] form since his sonido is so fast he slips right through his opponent’s reiatsu and gets behind them]].
* [[spoiler: OneWingedAngel: That form used in {{Bleach}} canon when Ichigo [[CurbStompBattle rips the mess]] out of Ulquiorra's Segunda Etapa]]
* PersonOfMassDestruction: Anytime Ichigo goes into [[spoiler: his [[OneWingedAngel Berserk Rage Hollow]] form]] that's [[spoiler: [[FanNickname Shirosaki]]]] [[DemonicPossession possessing]] [[spoiler: him]]. It's got about as much NighInvulnerability as, if not more than, [[DevilMayCry Dante's Majin form]]
* SuperPoweredEvilSide: see DemonicPossession above
* ThrowingYourSwordAlwaysWorks: A battle technique. Used it once to [[spoiler: [[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice impale]] Yamamoto]]
* TheBerserker
* UnskilledButStrong: While [[DemonicPossession taking possession]] of Ichigo and using [[spoiler: his [[OneWingedAngel berserk rage]] form]]
** According to WordOfGod this could be subverted if [[FanNickname Hichigo]] [[spoiler: becomes sentient while using said form]]. There were hints of this when [[spoiler: Talbumosuke did the same thing]].
!! Kugo Ginjo
A Fullbringer that is [[LateArrivalSpoiler also a former Substitute Soul Reaper]]. He is the leader of the Xcution group. [[spoiler: He stopped working for the Soul Society because they wouldn’t stop Natsumi, the soul Reaper that gave him his powers, and his mother, from being killed by the Inked Alliance. He cut his ties with the Soul Society and ceased doing his job. He swore vengeance on Ukitake]]. His Fullbring is the Cross of Scaffold. The necklace used to manifest his fullbring used to belong to his father.
* BigBad: Of the Fullbringer arc
* DisappearedDad: Ginjo's father passed away when he was young, though this doesn't affect Ginjo as much as Masaki's passing affects Ichigo. [[spoiler: See below for what ''does'' affect him]].
* [[spoiler: EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas[=/=]LoveMakesYouEvil: Why did he have a grudge against Soul Society? Because they didn't help out in stopping [[CompleteMonster the Inked Alliance]] from killing his mom and girlfriend, who was also a FORMER SHINIGAMI.]]
* [[spoiler: HeroicBSOD: Suffers this after the death of Natsumi and his Mom]]
* LateArrivalSpoiler: In [[{{Bleach}} canon]] the fact that he's a former Substitute Soul Reaper is a big surprise, but here this fact is mentioned two whole arcs before Ginjo even gets any screen time. This is, of course, due to the fact that Lelouch has [[ShownTheirWork done his homework]]
* [[spoiler: RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Against the Inked Alliance as they killed his mom and his lover]].
* StartOfDarkness: See [[spoiler: EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas and LoveMakesYouEvil]] above.
* TeamDad: Seems to have a role like this given how he’s much older than any of the other fullbringers and he tells Yukio twice not to play his game at the dining table during breakfast.
* TookALevelInJerkass: Ginjo was a pretty cool guy until [[spoiler: Natsumi and his mother’s death]].
* [[spoiler: WellIntentionedExtremist]]
!! [[spoiler:Vasto Lorde Lelouch vi Britannia]]
[[spoiler: As Lelouch finds out, [[FishOutOfTemporalWater he is misplaced in time]] and actually will soon slay his hollow self who will pose quite a threat post-Zero Requiem]]
* VillainProtagonist: Assumes this role until he conflicts with [[spoiler: Captain of Squad 10]] [[HeroProtagonist Lelouch Lamperouge]]. Then he quickly switches roles.
