* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike his entirely self-serving canonical counterpart, Aizen has genuinely good intentions.
* TheChessmaster: Much like his canon counterpart, he's this trope, manipulating people and events to a scale comparable to [[BigBad Ragyo]] and [[BigGood Isshin]].
* FauxAffablyEvil: His polite tone ''oozes'' with condescension and arrogance. (Un ?)fortunately, said arrogance tends to be backed up by his skills.
* GoodAllAlong: Saying he's a good person is definitely a stretch, but he caught wind of the Life Fibers' existence long before anyone else and was working from day one against them.
* IRegretNothing: [[spoiler:In the epilogue, Aizen admits he has no regrets : the Original Life Fiber and Ragyo were killed and humanity was saved. As far as he's concerned, his deeds, as horrible as they were, were WorthIt.]]
* SmugSuper: As arrogant as he is, Aizen consistently proves his bite is worse than his bark.
* WellIntentionedExtremist: While much like canon he wanted to kill the Soul King, Aizen also wants to ensure humanity's survival against the Life Fibers, and is ready to commit any crimes and underhanded methods if it means so.

* ArchEnemy: Ragyo's many, many crimes, earn her the enmity of several people, and she returns it in kind to some of them:
** Her daughter Satsuki wants her dead, and this is more than understandable : Ragyo was just as horrible towards her as she was in canon (verbal, physical and sexual abuse). Ragyo initially thinks of her daughter as a failure for not being fully human instead of being a Life Fiber hybrid, [[spoiler: but underestimates her a lot, and Satsuki shows it by using the Hogyoku to reach her Kamui's ultimate transformation before Ryuko and Ichigo, who are actual hybrids. Ragyo, taken by surprise, admits she's actually proud of Satsuki for the first time of her life. It's also noted that her fight against Satsuki and Aizen is the first time Ragyo is forced to go all out since her fight against Masaki. Even after Ragyo's defeat and death, Satsuki show how badly her mother underestimated her by outsmarting and personally finishing off the Original Life Fiber ''without using her Kamui''.]]
** At first, Ragyo only saw Kisuke Urahara as a mere annoyance for stealing Life Fibers, hence why she sent Nui Harime to assassinate him. However, him creating a Kamui with ease while being a mere human, [[spoiler: successfully faking his death against Nui, nearly successfully sealing the Original Life Fiber made her despise him. By the time of the final fight, he became the person she loathed the most.]]
