They also tend to survive injuries that would kill a normal human, but they still can be mortally wounded. They also tend to have great spiritual powers, although this comes at an interesting cost: unlike other spirits, they need to eat.
As mentioned, soul reapers can have different appearances in fiction and this is just as true in the world of Bleach. Some of them look perfectly human, but others have a variety of appearance variations, with some even resembling animals. One notable example of the latter is Sajin Komamura , who resembles a wolf. He's also over 9 feet tall and weighs over pounds, making him gigantic compared to the average human. Some personalization is allowed, from wearing scarves or shortening sleeves.
The black uniform helps to contrast them with the Quincies , who favor white. As the soul reapers tend to be on the side of the protagonist, this effectively serves as a subversion of associating light with good and dark with evil, at least to the audiences' perspective. For thousands of years, the soul reapers have been rivals with the Quincies. The main source of conflict is the fact that they disagree on what to do with the Hollows.
As mentioned, soul reapers prefer to cleanse them of their sins, although they are not against punishing them for sins committed in life. The Quincies would rather just kill them. While the soul reapers' point-of-view is usually given the benefit of the audience's perspective, the Quincies are not entirely vilified, as the soul reapers have been shown to underestimate the Hollows, but the Quincies' actions have also been shown to be a threat to existence itself, although they themselves fear death.
The anime has a tendency to add villains who turned evil due to the machinations of the Soul Society, such as the Dark Ones, Captain Amagai, and Kusaka. While this could initially just be blamed on the changes in the adaptation, the manga would reveal its incarnation of the soul reapers also had some blood on their hands, too. He often uses his subordinates as expendable pawns and painfully experiments on anyone he deems to be interesting. The 4th Division, led by Retsu Unohana, is the source of contempt and scorn amongst the other Shinigami.
Although they are responsible for providing medical care, they are often bullied or ridiculed for being weak. The members of this division play a crucial role in keeping people alive on the battlefield, and it is a shame that they rarely get the respect that they deserve. Soul Reapers have a way to be seen by the living: they have to wear Gigai. These bodies help Soul Reapers blend into human society and take on the physical appearance of the user.
In order to fight, a Soul Reaper has to exit the body by consuming an artificial soul, which is shaped like a pill. Without one, leaving the Gigai is extremely difficult.
Before undergoing all of the training that is required to unlock the powers of their zanpakuto, Soul Reapers must first graduate from the Soul Reaper Academy. After passing the entrance exam, they undergo 6 years of study.
Although it is vastly unfair, most of the Soul Reapers who have gone through decades of battles and training have been outclassed by humans who obtained their powers recently. Substitute Soul Reapers, namely the ones who are human, do not receive the same kind of trust that ordinary Soul Reapers do.
They are presented with a badge, which few Soul Reapers actually recognize, as one laughed at Ichigo when he tried to present it. Their powers are also limited, as to not be detrimental to the living people around them. Jasmine Venegas Articles Published. Jasmine Venegas is a writer based in Las Vegas, Nevada.
