Do you understand what I am telling you? Using this ability, I am able to impregnate myself into my enemies, and thus I can be ever reborn into a new body. Just as the phoenix, the immortal bird, engulfs itself in flames once it reaches old age and is reborn, its life begun anew, from the midst of those flames. Do you realize now? Immortality. This is its most absolute form. One does not attempt to escape death, but accepts it as one's due, and allows life's cycle to continue, not allowing that death to bring an end to one's own existence. Eternally repeating that cycle of death and rebirth, an existence such as this... truly, mine is what may be called a "perfect existence"! For one such as me, the concept of "death" as an end to life simply holds no meaning. You may kill me, but in defiance of the finality of death, I will simply arise once more. Now do you understand? It is impossible for you to truly kill me. As such, you have no means to achieve victory in this battle.

What Makes Him a Hate Sink?[]

  • He tortured humans in his past for experiments as an alchemist.
  • He and Nnoitra Gilga turned Nel into a child and tortured her fraccions.
  • While he cowardly begs Aizen for forgiveness, he only did it just to save himself, proving he cares about no else’s safety but his.
  • When he encounters Renji he claims that he is not good at fighting but was lying.
  • When Renji asked him about that he’s there to avenge his brother, Yylfordt, he insulted his brother’s death and says that he was weak, showing he never cared about his brother.
  • After being damaged by Renji and Uryu, he took one of his fraccions to consume to heal his wound.
  • After activating his resurrection form, he uses his ability to create dolls version of Renji and Uryu, so he can crush their organs from the inside.
  • After being eaten by Mayuri Kurotsuchi’s Bankai form, he uses Nemu to revive himself and leave her to die.
  • Although his death was rather horrifying after he unknowingly consumed a superhuman drug from Nemu’s body that slowed his perception from seconds to several hundreds of years with Mayuri’s sword slowly stabbing to his heart, no one mourned for him and was not played for sympathy.
  • He returns to World of Living to get his revenge on those who killed him.
  • He intends to kill Renji’s daughter, Ichika, out of spite.
  • When he fought Ichigo, he cruelly told him that the ritual for the deceased captains will send them to hell.
