Bleach: Ichigo's Greatest Battle, no
Ichigo from Bleach never gave up on any of these battles as they pushed him to grow into a shinigami and a human.
Despite being all Quincy and vouching for their King, Yhwach, each Sternritter is completely different in character, abilities and most importantly in this list, their appearance. From minimalist and mysterious designs to over the top and extravagant, these are Sternritter with the best designs in the history of bleach. Before jumping in, it should be noted that the base form of the Sternritter will be captured, not their transformation.
8 Bazz-B
Bazz's cool Mohawk and casual attire make him an instant standout
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 3
As proven with Grimmjow, Kubo knows exactly how to make a punk-rock look in his style, with Bazz-B being another clear example. Despite his minimalist appearance, a lot can be gleaned about Bazz's personality from a closer look. The fact that he chose to have his top completely open highlights that he is not the most formal man out there, indicating his unpredictable and restless nature.
Of course, the most striking feature of Bazz B's face though is the pink mohawk that sits atop his head. As funny as this sounds, to Bazz, it only makes him worse and shows more of his disregard for social norms, or how people think of him in general.
7 Gremmy Thoumeaux
Gremmy's mischievous appearance highlights his distance from his friends
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 15
Gremmy is another character whose looks may seem a little basic on the surface, but there's still something to be gleaned here that reveals a lot about the man, or the brain, that lies beneath. Gremmy has no creative freedom in his Sternritter costume, which is completely buttoned up and always keeps his hat hanging over his head to hide his identity.
All of this gives the illusionist a mysterious aura, and also means that he is a bit of an introvert who prefers to keep to himself. As revealed later in his fight with Kenpachi, Gremmy is truly a heartless killer who doesn't like to give back, even to his friends, and his dress sense certainly reflects that.
6 Quilge Opie
Kubo made sure that the first Sternritter in the series looked as dangerous as possible
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 1
Quilge is the first official Sternritter that Ichigo meets in the story, and it's fair to say that he gives a clear idea of what the group is about, even if only in appearance. Quilge is seen wearing a small hood that slightly covers his shadow, which seems to be stuck to his eyes. He also wears a classic Sternritter outfit with a long white cape and white gloves for good measure.
All this says that this is a man who has manners, and of course he is a person who wears clothes that allow him to humiliate others with his legitimacy. Before his transformation, Quilge almost wears a teary smile on his face, further showing his character and his no-nonsense nature.
5 Lille Barro
Lille got creative with their unique outfit
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 15
Lille's unique design suggests that he is less fond of the traditional Sternritter outfit, making him appear to have created his own temporary outfit which is more experimental than many others. Although she keeps the white dress, the sleeves are completely removed, and half of Lille's dress is a light green color, including a small and dark bicorne hat that contrasts with her blond hair.
Lille is so devoted to Yhwach that he also has many symbols emblazoned on his clothes, including the Wandenreich symbol on either side of his hat, along with a small symbol on his gloves . Lille's always smug face and eyes just closed give the impression that Lille is someone who has been in his fair share of fights, making for a very intimidating figure who can intimidate his enemies before firing a bullet. .
4 Bambietta Basterbine
Bambietta's sense of style and style has made her a fan favorite
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 3
Bambietta is a Sternritter who easily stands out from the crowd, not only because of her clothes, but also her looks. At one moment he may be shown with a haughty and proud face, and at the next his eyes will be wide open as he sees a strong opponent standing before him.

Bleach: The original Gotei Captains, taken from form
Gotei 13 is powerful, but how can he survive his evil plans?
Kubo and the animators of the thousand-year-old blood fight anime obviously had a lot of fun with Bambietta's style, and created a character that always makes people think. In addition, Bambietta's thick coat, which was designed to look smaller than her smaller stature, along with her knee-high boots, made her a celebrity to many. bleach fans.
3 Askin
Askin's Nonchalant Design belies its power
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 4
Askin has an unusual face that almost looks like it was lifted from a completely different anime. The joke has been made many times that he closely resembles Aizen in terms of his facial structure, and while the resemblance is obvious, Askin also has that derpy expression on his face that makes him look weird. and unexpected.
However, since he was an official member of the Schutzstaffel, his facial expression complimented his hooded jacket, and his elegant white V-neck shirt, making him look like a high-ranking official in the Quincy army. It's a strange pairing, but one that leaves fans wondering what this guy is up to, and why they can't look away from the screen every time he appears.
2 Gérard
Gerard's good looks match his impressive physical strength
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 15
Kubo is no stranger to borrowing from ancient history when developing his characters, and in the case of Gerard, he clearly took a few notes from Norse mythology when creating his this Thor looks like this. However, while the silky blonde hair and strong body are back to that old hero, Gerard still has a few other quirks that help him stand out, one of which is the white mask that he rarely takes off. his face.

He also has his unique red cape which really reinforces his image as the brave and powerful 'hero' he thinks of himself as.

1 Like Nodt
Because Nodt's mask and deep black eyes are enough to strike fear into any opponent.
- First appearance: TYBW Episode 3
Because Nodt's strange and terrifying appearance is perfectly suited to his unique ability to manipulate his enemies into fear. As a result, the As are all about disrupting their opponents, which is easy to do given their looks. As the black spiked mask hides its mouth, it draws the viewer's attention directly to its glowing black eyes, which are more than enough to scare even seasoned horror fans.
In addition, As Nodt is a tall and thin person who is often seen stretching his body in strange and frightening ways, and who can forget the long flowing black hair that makes him look like the lead singer of a heavy metal band . . It was such a striking image that it stuck with many fans long after As died at the hands of Rukia.
