  • Complete Monster: Szayelaporro Granz is the Octava Espada. When he was human, Granz was an unhinged alchemist who performed torturous experiments on prisoners captured by his brother. A sadistic player of games, Granz creates voodoo dolls out of his victims, and then proceeds to torture them to death, rupturing one organ at a time, as he cheerfully does to Renji Abarai and Uryu Ishida. He's also the worst boss of any of the Espada, modifying the bodies of his subordinates so that in a pinch he can convert them to raw energy and devour them with ease, using their lives to fuel his own. A sickening scientist, who regards himself as the ultimate life form, Granz takes pride in his unique brand of depravity, and regards everyone, including his late brother Ylfordt Granz, as beneath him, and, ultimately, disposable.
  • Magnificent Bastard: Dordoni Alessandro Del Socaccio, beneath his affable, goofy and seemingly incompetent behavior, is a Privaron Espada who's far deadlier than he looks. Attempting to kill Ichigo Kurosaki in the hopes of regaining his former Espada rank, Dordoni goads Ichigo into using his full power against him, criticizing him for trying to keep it for the current Espada, and deliberately targeting Ichigo's ally Nel Tu upon noticing his first attempt on the latter's life successfully forced Ichigo to reveal his Bankai. Successfully forcing Ichigo to use his full power to take him down, Dordoni is healed by Nel Tu and Ichigo after his defeat. Genuinely thankful to them and especially to Ichigo for fighting him at full power, Dordoni pretends to ungratefully attack them, hoping for Ichigo to become a more ruthless fighter in his future battles to survive and dies covering their escape. Resurrected with other deceased Arrancars by Mayuri Kurotsuchi, Dordoni helps them and Mayuri defeat the Sternritter Z, Giselle Gewelle.
