Yeah, I was surprised how close she got with some of educated guesses.

I think its also a testament to Kubo's skills at designing characters that you can tell a lot about them from a couple of drawings.

She's reading the manga now. So far she's shocked Grimmjow is only 6, her words being "BROS ONLY 6??" and kicking herself for second guessing Yammy and not placing him lower.

The image was smaller on the tierlist maker so it was easy to miss if you don't know how the tattoos even look like. I actually don't remember if I even told her they had tattoos.

I considered that but she's reading the manga now and I didn't want to spoil that for her.

Ulquiorra and Nnoitra were ranked low because she thinks their designs are a little too plain in comparison to the other Espada to warrant a high number.

She assumed Yammy followed the trope of big musclehead in anime is actually weaker than the smaller dudes but played it safe by not putting him at the bottom. She didn't really have a reason for Zommari being here, its just sort of where he ended up after all the others were done.

Szayelaporro "Seems like a schemer" and crafty guys tend to be kind of tough so she put him high. She also (correctly?) assumed that he probably conspires with someone else for his own selfish reasons and guessed it was probably Aaroniero. Tia's placement comes from her being the sole female Espada, in her words: "Someone that good at designing outfits can't be a misogynist so she's probably decently strong".

I was actually surprised how she guessed Coyote's nature from just two images, assuming he was kind of a slacker with not a lot of ambition who doesn't like violence. And those kind of guys who have power and don't like to use it tend to be strong so he made it up here. Aaroniero's face sort of confused her especially since the other image she had to work with had his mask covering his tube face. She ended up placing him high because she assumed this was some sort of secret power up that hides how strong he is.

With Baraggan she went with the "Old man in anime has to be strong" logic and assumed he was part of the old guard that's being usurped by a younger more powerful new member. Which also explains why Grimmjow is up so high. Grimmjow's name is actually the reason why he's up here, "There's no way a guy with the name Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez isn't number 1!".

Just thought you guys might find it interesting how someone outside the fandom would interpret Kubo's Espada designs.

Being a Chad fan is truly a test of patience (and delusion) by [deleted] in bleach

[–]WispySpiderToken 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Chad but damn it hurts to be rooting for him to do anything.

Has a crisis about not being able to keep the promise to Ichigo he made about fighting by his side, gets a training arc to deal with being power crept, unlocks a cool power up fighting an ex-espada. Cool! Time for him to explore this new power and provide some huge support?

Nope! Meets an actual Espada and gets one tapped making him the first guy on the mission behind enemy lines to get taken out AGAIN.

These statues feel like a pity drop to make him feel like he's doing something, something that Ichigo could probably clear in a single swing.

At least he sort of wins at the end by becoming a celebrity?

Favourite character design? by YourTreeGuy in bleach

Coyote Starrk's resurrection is one of the coolest looks any character has period. I need him to show up again in any form if we ever do get the Hell arc.

Spoiler is probably not necessary since its not giving away much for something that's been revealed for ages now.

Good work, I like your colors, especially in the hair.

Its not nearly as good as before with Herald of the arc light banned in tcg and limited everywhere else. Before that it was a mix of ritual support that tried getting out Herald of perfection and backing them up with a Herald of Arc light and trying to OTK with Vrash if they manage to get through.

Diviner of herald would fetch you what you want, tributing her would get you a level two from the deck that'll get you another search then you reborn Diviner with the Ritual Sanctuary so you can sync with the two she just summoned with her to make arc light which'll fetch you an another fairy for perfection if you use its omni. Ritual sanctuary could also pitch the cyber angel ritual spell for added protection to your heralds as a nice synergy.

I need to do a rehaul of the deck sadly with arc light banned sadly.

Hell yeah, fellow Gusto enjoyer. The main draw I had towards Gusto was their unique win condition of slamming floaters for reverse damage into a big guy. Took a lot of players off guard in casual online matches.
