![]() ![]() He also has a few catchphrases including, “YAHOO!” and “I’m going to surpass god!” Somehow, his weapon partner, Tsubaki, puts up with him when she should just strangle him with her chain and get it over with. He’s brash, loud, immature, and horribly arrogant. Black Star claims he’s an assassin, but the episode, and most of the series, proves otherwise. Thankfully, he finally snaps out of it, thanks to the help of Nemu and Mayuri giving him a Quincy artifact that restores some of his powers.Įpisode 2 of Soul Eater introduces the second of three sets of main protagonists, Black Star and Tsubaki. He is a freakin Quincy! He has a pride above any soul reaper, and he mopes about powerless and miserable for an entire arc. He goes into this unwitting depression that seems completely out of character for him. He then gets himself entangled with a Bount (vampire like humanoid), who, shortly after, is sacrificed. Quincys have a pride for themselves and their power and see themselves as superior to soul reapers.īy the end of the Soul Society arc, and into the Bount arc, Uryuu has lost his powers. They also pull spirit particles from their surroundings to power their weapons, while soul reapers use their own spiritual energy. The Quincys are a race of humans who have a spiritual awareness and utilize bows instead of swords like soul reapers. Uryuu is one of two Quincys that still remain, the other being his father. Then the Bount arc that followed brought out a side of Uryuu that made me absolutely cringe. Through the first arc of the amine Bleach, Uryuu was a fascinating character and my favorite one at that. His morals and motivation have been said to be on a higher level than most Jounins (highest ranking ninjas). He progresses to the level of Sanin, can finally control the kyubii inside of him, has a huge emotional growth and gains a level of maturity to that of a superior ninja. He has a variety of moves, actually strategizes his attacks, and has an intelligence when he fights that he did not have before. The reason Naruto is runner up is because, after the two and a half year time jump into Naruto Shippuden, Naruto redeems every annoyance of his. And it repeats every new move he learns, he uses it over and over. And then he uses it, over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over…. When he finally masters a move, the shadow clone jutsu, it’s exciting. “-ttebayo” is FAR more tolerable than the english half-translation of “BELIEVE IT!” after every sentence. If it hadn’t been for Japanese subbed episodes, I would not have made it through the first arc. ![]() He was basically a dumb kid with crazy ambitions and a catch phrase that would make any die hard anime fanatic want to shoot themselves. The title character of the anime, Naruto, he starts off as a 12 year old mischievous boy on the verge of failing out of ninja school. ![]()
