"Nanao-chan is last place!"

"[To Ichigo] So you can withstand my Cero even without your mask... You've gotten stronger. Is it because you defeated Grimmjow? Or...Is it because of her? [Motions to Inoue] Or maybe because of your friends, still fighting down below. That girl is already one of us. Even if you manage to rescue her, that won't change. Rescuing her...Is meaningless."

"Hey... whoever just called me bald, get over here!"

— Madarame Ikkaku · Bleach

"What would you have me say? "Don't worry, I'm sure he's still alive."? Ridiculous. I am not here to comfort you. I don't understand why are you so fixated on life and death? At any rate, your friends will soon be annihilated. So what if that's one step closer? They should have seen this coming from the start. If they couldn't see it coming, the fault lies in their own foolishness. Laughing them off as a group of idiots would be sufficient. Why can't you do that? If it were me, and my friends entered Hueco Mundo without first gauging their strength, I'd be infuriated by their stupidity."

"Why are you putting so much distance between us? If you want to make sure it hits me, then you should get close and fire. Or is it that you're afraid of letting even a part of me out of your field of vision by getting close? If that's the case, then it's a foolish thought. Distance only has meaning in a fight between equals. With you and I, distance holds no meaning at all. Watch... If I do this, my hand is almost instantly at your heart."

— Aizen Sousuke · Bleach

"[In his Resurrección form] I can see! I can see! I can see!!! So this is the sky!! So this is blood!! So this is the world!! ...So this is what you look like. Komamura. You are uglier... than I thought."

— Tousen Kaname · Bleach

"The difference in ability... What about it? Do you think I should give up just because you're stronger than me?"

— Kurosaki Ichigo · Bleach
