Bleach: 10 quincy abilities to know before the thousand year blood war arc.

Ichigo Kurosaki has face a plethora of foes over the years. Now he must prepare to fight the sworn enemy of all Soul Reapers. The Sternritter.

Since his anime debut in 2004, Ichigo Kurosaki has faced a plethora of foes, such as Hollows, Soul Reapers, Arrancars and Fullbringers. Now, after a decade long hiatus, fans of Bleach will finally be able to watch as the Soul Society faces off against their sworn enemies, the Quincies.

After the decimation of the Quincies by the Soul Reapers, they were thought to be extinct, but now the Quincies are back and have formed the Sternritter, an organization whose goal is to purge the world of Soul Reapers. Under the command of the original Quincy, Yhwach, the Sternritter have been gifted additional abilities through Schrifts given to them by Yhwach. These abilities are powerful enough to rival even the most powerful Soul Reapers.

"Z-The Zombie"

The Schrift of Giselle Gewelle "The Zombie" grants her the ability to create and control, as the name suggests, zombies. Anyone who comes into contact with her blood runs the risk of falling under her influence. Additionally, Giselle also has the ability to heal herself and her zombies making her nearly impossible to kill.

The only limitation of "the Zombie" is that, in order to control more powerful foes, Giselle needs to use more of her own blood. But her ability to heal herself using pieces of dead corpses nullifies this weakness, allowing her to take over the bodies of powerful captains and lieutenants of the Gotei 13 and repurpose the carnage that they cause to heal herself and control more zombies, creating a vicious cycle.

"X-The X-Axis"

There are some people who would say that a gun doesn't belong in a world of magic and swords. Those people haven't heard of Lille Barro, "The X-Axis." Lille's skill with his rifle coupled with the Schrift gifted him by Yhwach make him a considerable foe on the battlefield.

Lille has no need for bullets, instead it simply penetrates anything and everything between the muzzle and the target. This attack is impossible to block and Lille's skill as a marksman makes it nearly impossible to dodge. However, his secondary ability is even more terrifying. "The X-Axis" allows Lille to "pierce" his enemies attacks, essentially keeping him from being hit at all. Luckily, Lille's pride prevents him from using it because it would be "unfair.

"V-The Visionary"

Of all of the Sternritter, Gremmy Thoumeaux ranks as one of the most powerful. His Schrift, "The Visionary," allows him to make whatever he can imagine into a reality. He can use this power to create or destroy matter, transform his opponents or even create entire beings.

As powerful of an ability this is, Gremmy is limited in what he can create and has to be extremely careful. If he imagines something dangerous that may benefit him without also imagining safeguards to protect himself, the results may be catastrophic. For example, imagining that he has incredible strength, without imagining bones strong enough to use those muscles can cause his bones to break.

"S-The Superstar"

While he may seem to be a simple brute with immense physical strength, Mask De Masculine has one of the most unique powerset of all of the Sternritter. His Schrift "The Superstar" grants him even more power when he has an audience cheering for him.

This boost can be negated by destroying his audience, but that might prove to be difficult given that Mask's No. 1 fan, James, is immortal as long as Mask is alive. If ripped into multiple pieces, James can reconstitute his body from each of the individual pieces. Each of those James clones add to Masks audience, increasing his strength exponentially with each clone.

"L-The Love"

While there are multiple Quincy who have the power to manipulate their foes, only one can do so with the power of love. PePe Waccabrada, designated with the Schrift called "The Love" has the capability to make anyone fall in love with him to the point where they will follow his every order.

PePe's abilities aren't limited to just living breathing creatures, but anything that has a soul. While this may seem like a strange caveat, the danger of this statement becomes much more apparent when one remembers that Zanpakuto possess souls of their own. By causing an opponents Zanpakuto to fall in love with him, PePe can turn a Soul Reaper's most trusted ally against them.

"E-The Explode"

In the world of Bleach, nearly every ability can cause some sort of explosion, but none in quite the same way as Bambietta Basterbine. After receiving her Schrift, "The Explode," Bambietta gained the ability to transform anything that comes into contact with her reishi into a bomb.

Because of her unconventional explosives, Bambietta's attacks can't be blocked. If someone attempts to deflect her reishi, the object used will simply turn into a bomb and explode. If the target dodges the reishi but doesn't get out of the blast radius quick enough they will be caught up in the explosion. In spite of this, the Explode is not unbeatable. Bambietta's explosions can be delayed if intercepted by an object that can suspend reishi, if only momentarily.

"D-The Deathdealing"

Potentially one of the most intelligent and terrifying Sternritter, Askin Nakk Le Vaar has the potential to end even the most powerful captains of the soul society. His Schrift, "The Deathdealing," grants him the power to alter the lethal dose of a substance in his, or his enemy's body by ingesting the substance himself.

This may seem like a somewhat niche power that would be great if used for covert assassinations and poisonings, but too much of any substance can become a "lethal dose." So, if Askin were to ingest some of someone's blood and then use the Deathdealing to lower the amount of blood that his opponent can healthily have in their body, they will overdose on their own blood.

"B-The Balance"

As Yhwach's right hand man, Jugram Haschwalth was gifted one of the most poweful Schrifts to help maintain balance in his master's domain. "The Balance" alters the fortunes of all of those in Haschwalth's vicinity. Those who have misfortune are granted fortune and those that are fortunate receive terrible misfortune.

While this may seem like it would cause all battles to end in a stalemate, Haschwalth has an ace hidden up his sleeve that will almost guarantee his victory. When the Balance would cause misfortune to befall Haschwalth, it is instead absorbed into his Freund Schild. As if that wasn't enough, he can that take that misfortune and deal it to opponent, dealing massive damage.

"A-The Antithesis"

When Yhwach gave Uryu Ishida his Schrift, he declared that Uryu would succeed him as the ruler of the Sternritter. His Schrift, "The Antithesis,"(the same letter as Yhwach's own Schrift) is meant to symbolize this and give Uryu an edge when dealing with other Sternritter that might attack Uryu before his actual purpose is fulfilled.

The Antithesis reverse events that have already happened between two points. For example, if Uryu is wounded, he can reverse events and cause his opponent to be wounded instead. Yet because this power reverses events and not attacks, Uryu has the potential to steal events that benefitted his foes or even grievously wound himself and then reverse events with a foe whose defenses are too strong for Uryu to penetrate otherwise.

"A-The Almighty"

As the leader and progenitor of all Quincy, it is no surprise that Yhwach has what is possibly the most powerful ability in the Bleach canon. "The Almighty" gives Yhwach the deadly combination of omniscience and nigh omnipotence.

Unlike many characters that see one inevitable future, Yhwach sees all possible futures and by extension, all incoming attacks. He uses this knowledge to get an advantage over his opponents by setting traps and attacking where he knows that they will be. But the greatest power of the almighty is the power to actually re-write the future and erase his own death. With this power, Yhwach posses a massive threat to Ichigo and the Soul Society .

The Most Powerful Quincy Abilities In Bleach

The Quincy in the final arc of Bleach all have a unique power, but some abilities are far more powerful than others.

A decade ago, Bleach was one of the most popular anime and manga series in the world. Its story is mediocre at best , but it has cool characters, an interesting power system, and a surprising amount of action. The series mainly focuses on the conflicts between spiritual beings, like Soul Reapers and Hollows, but the final arc re-introduced the Quincy, who went to war with the Soul Reapers.

RELATED: 10 Anime Villains Bleach's Ichigo Kurosaki Can Defeat

The anime ended before the manga did, and many fans thought that they would never get to see the final arc in anime form. Luckily, the series has returned, and it looks better than ever thanks to studio Pierrot's updated animation style. The Quincy in this arc all have a unique power, but some abilities are far more powerful than others.

10 Giselle Can Use Her Blood To Take Control Of Others With "The Zombie"

There will be a lot of fighting during the Thousand Year Blood War arc , and there will be a great deal of blood, which is exactly what Giselle wants. Her ability is called The Zombie, and it allows her to take control of people.

This ability takes effect when her blood splatters on her opponents. It is true that it requires her to get injured, but she has a special healing factor to even things out. She can use this power on other Quincy as long as they are already dead, and she needs to use greater quantities of blood to take control of stronger individuals.

9 Bambietta Can Turn Anything Into A Bomb With "The Explode"

Many Bleach fans are excited to see the Sternritter invasion of Soul Society, and Bambietta will be especially troublesome for many Soul Reapers to deal with. Her power is called The Explode, and it allows her to create bombs that cannot be blocked.

RELATED: 10 Worst Things Fans Want to Forget About Bleach

She does not create these bombs with spirit particles. Instead, they are created when spirit particles come in contact with a surface or object. With this ability, she can create powerful explosions in every direction without actually having to target someone. If a Soul Reaper tries to stop her bombs with their Zanpakuto, the Zanpakuto will become a bomb.

8 Nianzol Makes Solid Attacks Useless With "The Wind"

One of the best things about Bleach is the fact that its combat system continues to evolve. That being said, most of the combat still revolves around swords, and that makes Nianzol's ability very useful. It is called The Wind, and it allows him to deflect solid attacks before they can connect.

If one or more people were to attack Nianzol at once with swords, the swords would all bend away from him. He does not even need to see the attack in order for the ability to activate. Best of all, he can use this power to protect others from attacks.

7 Pepe Turns Love Into A Weapon With "The Love"

PePe Waccabrada may not look intimidating, but he possesses an ability that is quite effective. It is called The Love, and it allows him to shoot a unique heart-shaped projectile at his enemies. When the target gets hit, they become infatuated with him to the point that they will do anything he asks.

He can force his targets to attack their own comrades, and he can even take control of a Shinigami 's Zanpakuto. This power is strong enough to override Giselle's The Zombie ability, but he cannot use it on objects that do not possess hearts.

6 As Nodt Controls Fear With "The Fear"

Fans got to see a lot of exciting things in the trailers for the Thousand Year Blood War arc, including the fight between Byakuya Kuchiki and As Nodt. This terrifying Quincy fires thorns instead of arrows, and he uses them in conjunction with his power, The Fear.

RELATED: 10 Times Chad Proved He's Ichigo's Best Friend In Bleach

When As Nodt strikes someone with these thorns, they are stricken with limitless fear, which causes them to lose control of all rational thought while seeing images of their deepest fears. This fear is strong enough to stop a person's heart. When As Nodt activates his Vollstandig, this ability activates once his opponent sees him.

5 Lille Can Pierce Through Anything With Perfect Accuracy With "The X-Axis"

Lille is the leader of the Schutzstaffel, Yhwach's personal guards, and when it comes to ranged attacks, no one is his equal. His ability is called The X-Axis, and with it, he can pierce through anything within his line of sight. He can do so with perfect accuracy as well.

No defense can block his attacks, and if he opens both of his eyes during combat, his body can pierce through enemy attacks. This means that they safely phase through his body. When he activates his Vollstandig, he can fire multiple shots at once, and he becomes virtually untouchable.

4 Haschwalth Turns Bad Luck Into A Weapon With "The Balance"

Haschwalth is Yhwach's second-in-command, so it is understandable that he possesses a powerful ability. It is called The Balance, and with it, he can take any misfortune that happens around him and give it to those who are experiencing good fortune.

This ability is highly effective during battle, as every attack that successfully hits Haschwalth is an instance of bad luck for him and good luck for his enemy. Haschwalth can deflect his opponent's good luck back at them at full force, and he can absorb his own bad luck to inflict more damage on his opponent.

3 Uryu Can Reverse All Damage With "Antithesis"

Uryu has been Ichigo's ally since the beginning, which is why many fans were shocked to see him on Yhwach's side. He was a member of the Schutzstaffel, and Yhwach selected him to be his future successor. This is why he was given the Antithesis ability

Uryu has a number of abilities that he rarely uses , but Antithesis is the type of power that needs to be used at every opportunity. He can choose two targets and completely reverse anything that has occurred between them. Essentially, Uryu can willingly take fatal damage, and transfer it all to his enemy at the last second to instantly win the fight.

2 Gremmy Can Turn Imagination Into Reality With "The Visionary"

Gremmy may look like a child, but he possesses one of the most overpowered abilities in all of anime . It is called The Visionary, and it literally allows him to turn fantasy into reality. If he imagines that his opponent's blood is acid, it will happen. If he gets injured, he can heal himself by imagining that the wound has been healed.

RELATED: 6 Bleach Characters Born In October

He can create clones of himself with this power, and the clones can use the same power as well. He needs to be careful though, because he can accidentally die if he imagines his own death.

1 Yhwach Controls The Future With "The Almighty"

Yhwach is the father of all Quincy, and he is the son of the Soul King, an actual god. His power is immense, and he has a number of strong and useful abilities, but none of them are as powerful as The Almighty. He can use this power to see all possible futures at once, and he can then alter a specific future to fit his desired outcome.

If he knows how a power works, he can make it an ally, and it will never be able to hurt him. If that were not enough, he can consume others by touching them. In doing so, he absorbs their powers and energy and makes them his own.

Bleach: 10 Strongest Sternritter Schrifts In The Thousand-Year Blood War Arc

• The Bleach anime's return after ten years offers fans a high-quality adaptation of the final arc, featuring intense battles and mind-blowing animation.
• The introduction of new Quincys and revealed schrifts in the second half of the anime promises a tougher battle for the favorite fighters.
• The article highlights the strongest schrifts in the series, including The Antithesis, The Balance, and The Almighty.

After returning from its ten-year hiatus, the Bleach anime treated its fans to a much higher-quality adaptation, covering the series’ final arc. The first half featured intense battles with mind-blowing animation, which unfortunately resulted in the defeat of multiple Soul Reapers . However, with the second half now airing, fans of the popular anime may get to see their favorite fighters mount an inspired comeback.

RELATED: Bleach: Best Bankai, Ranked By Strength

Having to wait an extra year for the second half may have bothered a few initially, but the eye-catching animation and overall production are sure to dispel the discontent. The battle only gets tougher from here, however, as more Quincys will be introduced and more schrifts will be revealed. Schrifts are the epithets given to sternritters that grant them special abilities, bestowed upon them by the father of the Quincy, Yhwach. Here are the strongest schrifts in the series.

The Fear is Äs Nödts Schrift, allowing him to induce crippling fear in anyone he hits with his spirit weapon. This schrift causes his victims to experience horrific hallucinations and paralyzes their movements. Like most other schrifts in the series, it was bestowed onto him by Yhwach and reflects his fear of death and hell.

His schrift allowed him to easily overpower Byakuya Kuchiki after stealing his bankai, greatly wounding him in the process. It is enhanced when he enters Tatarforas, his Vollständig, which is his most powerful form. In this form, he is able to induce fear in his targets through eye contact alone, making him a more deadly foe.

“H” - “The Heat” is a fitting schrift for Bazz-B’s bullish personality. It allows him to manipulate heat and fire, which is controlled mainly through the number of fingers he uses. His attacks range from Burning Finger One to Burning Finger Five, the former which emits a small beam of fire from one finger, while the latter releases a powerful surge of flames from all fingers.

His flames were strong enough to partly offset that of Captain Commander Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto , though he still took a lot of damage. He was also able to fatally wound the lieutenant of the third division of the Gotei 13, Izuru Kira, despite exerting minimal effort.

The Compulsory

Belonging to Pernida Parnkgjas, the Compulsory is a schrift that grants it the ability to control anything it touches with its extended nerves. In reality, however, this is an ability Pernida has always possessed, as its true nature is that of the Soul King’s left hand . It is able to freely manipulate or destroy anything it comes into contact with using its nerves, and this has an instantaneous effect.

RELATED: Bleach: Strongest Characters in the Anime, Ranked

Even if one of its fingers is torn off, Pernida can still remotely extend its nerves toward its target. It can control inanimate objects and large structures as well, making the scope of its ability very troublesome.

The Deathdealing

The Deathdealing is a schrift belonging to the eccentric Askin Nakk Le Vaar. It allows him to manipulate the lethal dose of any substance he ingests, making it harmless to himself or fatal to others. This applies to a wide range of things , such as blood, oxygen, or even spirit particles.

He can also apply this schrift in different ways, evidenced by his many abilities. For example, it grants him immunity by raising his lethal dosage or tolerance to an attack. He also has abilities that apply over long distances or a wide area. These include gift ball and gift bad, the former which creates a small ball of altered lethal doses while the latter alters the lethal doses to anything provided his target steps into a certain radius.

The Visionary

The Visionary is a schrift with limitless possibilities , allowing its user, Gremmy Thoumeaux, to turn his imagination into reality. With this ability, he is able to create substances out of nothing, alter the structure of existing things, and even create new life entirely. He is also able to clone himself, amplifying the power of his imagination as a result.

This power does have its weaknesses, however, as Tommy cannot imagine things he does not know about or cannot visualize. His imagination can also harm him if he does not exercise enough conscious control. Finally, once he dies, the objects of his imagination will cease to exist.

The X-Axis is the first ever schrift to have been issued by Yhwach, and it belongs to Lille Barro, leader of the Schutzstaffel. It is the ultimate offense that allows him to fire his rifle and pierce through anything as long as he can see it. It does not need projectiles and cannot be blocked in any way.

He generally keeps himself from operating at full power by closing one of his eyes; however, once he does open them both, he becomes much stronger. With both eyes, the X-Axis applies to himself in the form of defense, helping him phase through attacks that come from within his line of sight.

The Antithesis

After learning more of the Quincy extermination at the hands of the soul reapers, Uryu seemingly joined forces with Yhwach and the Wandenreich. Shortly after, to the bewilderment of the sternritters, he was announced as Yhwachs successor and given the schrift “A” - “Antithesis.” It is a schrift with the power to reverse anything that has happened between two targets.

RELATED: Bleach: Smartest Characters In The Series

It has wide applications and qualifies for any sort of event. For example, he is able to reverse wounds suffered against a superior opponent, transferring those wounds to his enemy while essentially healing himself.

The Miracle

This schrift belongs to Gerard Valkyrie and makes him virtually unkillable. As the name suggests, the Miracle is a schrift that allows him to get through challenging situations, especially when they seem impossible to overcome. It allows him to convert any damage received into physical strength while also growing larger in the process.

Like Pernida, this is an ability he has had from the beginning, as he is the heart of the soul king. The Miracle does not only enhance his physical strength and size but also affects specific events. For example, if he can’t find a target and the odds are terribly low, there is a high chance of a miracle occurring that leads to him discovering their location.

The Balance

The Balance is a schrift with the unique ability to tip the scales of misfortune between its user and its opponent. It belongs to the sternritter grandmaster Jugram Haschwalth and is second only to Yhwach’s in the series. It gives him the power to disperse misfortune onto others, which can be great enough to eliminate them if he wishes.

He can also turn any good fortune used to harm him back at his opponent, converting it into misfortune and inflicting great harm upon them. Furthermore, he is able to use the Freund Schild, his spirit weapon, to absorb any misfortune that would occur to him.

The Almighty

As the Father of the Quincy , Yhwach’s schrift is unsurprisingly the most powerful. The schrift, however, is sometimes shared with his second in command, Jugram Haschwalth, who takes over at night whenever Yhwach is asleep. Its power allows him to see far into the future, taking into account different possibilities and allowing him to act accordingly in each situation.

The true power of the Almighty makes it possible for Yhwach to affect and alter the events of the future. Using this, he can take action against his opponents long before they are aware and circumvent incidents that would result in his death.

Bleach: The Almighty, Explained

Allowing Yhwach to look into the future and potentially change fate, The Almighty is one of the Quincy Emperor's most powerful weapons.

• Yhwach's power, The Almighty, grants him the ability to see and alter the future, making him nearly invincible.
• The Almighty allows Yhwach to outwit his opponents by setting traps and attacking before they react.
• Despite its formidable nature, The Almighty can be countered by killing Haschwalth, using illusions, altering the past, or temporarily disabling Yhwach's powers.

The greatest threat to Soul Society and the Gotei 13 in their collective history, Yhwach is the Father of the Quincy, Emperor of the Wandenreich, and the son of the Soul King, wielding power beyond imagination. Although the list of abilities he has at his disposal are incredibly fearsome in their own right, not to mention his immeasurable reserves of Reiatsu , there is one power he wields which is the source of his near invincibility.

Known as "The Almighty," which is also his designation with the letter "A," this ability grants Yhwach the power to plan and account for any unforeseen circumstance that he may encounter. He himself has described it as "the mark of a true Quincy," and it is easily one of the most overpowered techniques seen throughout Bleach . No single Shinigami or individual in the series can hold a candle to its all-encompassing might, which is why Yhwach was able to bring Soul Society to its knees on being revived.

RELATED: Bleach: Who Is The Fastest Shinigami Of All Time?

What Is The Almighty?

Simply put, The Almighty grants the power to peer into and potentially alter the future depending on the user wielding it. It is shared between Yhwach, who wields it during the day, and Jugram Haschwalth, the Wandenreich's Sternritter Grandmaster, who gains access to it at night when Yhwach falls asleep. When either of them activate The Almighty, it splits their irises and pupils, which take on a red tinge. After absorbing Ichibe Hyosube's Futen Taisatsuryo , Yhwach gained one more pupil in each of his eyes.

The powers it grants when active are two-fold. Both Yhwach and Haschwalth can perceive countless futures extending from their present with omni-precognition, and choose how to act accordingly. The futures they see are not linear, but a collection of every potential outcome that could transpire. Next, The Almighty allows its user to alter their future to fit the outcome they desire. According to Yhwach, this is the true power of The Almighty , and only he can use it, with Haschwalth unable to tap into this aspect of the ability.

Following his defeat a millennium ago, Yhwach took 900 years to regain his heartbeat, 90 years to for his self-awareness to return, and nine years to obtain his power once again. It is said that if he had attempted to open his eyes prior to the conclusion of these last nine years, he would have been unable to control his abilities, and might have stolen power from his Sternritter without intending to do so. Being able to fully control The Almighty indicated that Yhwach had returned to his full strength after falling against Soul Society 1000 years ago.

Why Is It Such A Formidable Power?

With The Almighty, Yhwach can look into the future at any point and choose to alter it in order to achieve his objectives. In doing so, he can set traps and maneuver opponents into them, attack enemies before they can even react, or devise moves to deal with the countermeasures devised by his adversaries. This makes the act of outwitting him nigh on impossible, as he can see and react to everything even before it happens.

RELATED: Bleach: Best Shunpo Users In The Series

The greatest aspect of The Almighty is its capacity to undo Yhwach's own death. As such, even if he is defeated, he can nullify the event and rewrite it, reviving himself. This makes him invulnerable to nearly every attack that is thrown at him. He can avoid any potential future that would end in his death. Going up against such an ability would mean certain defeat for nearly anyone, and there are only a few ways in which this can be avoided.

How Can It Be Countered?

Despite how it may seem virtually impossible to deal with, there are a few ways to nullify certain aspects of The Almighty . To begin with, The Almighty is significantly less potent when it is in the hands of Jugram Haschwalth, and killing him while he possesses it will essentially result in the destruction of the ability itself, preventing Yhwach from using it again. Such a proposition would be considerably easier than taking on Yhwach himself as Haschwalth cannot use its power to alter the future, he can only view it.

Next, the Soul King and Mimihagi are both immune to the effects of The Almighty. As such, they do not appear in any of the visions of the future produced by this ability, making their interference in any event an anomaly that cannot be accounted for. Techniques such as Sosuke Aizen's Kyoka Suigetsu , which produces powerful illusions, can be used to deceive a user of The Almighty, to take advantage of the lack of coherence in their vision of the future and the actual course of events that will occur.

The Almighty also cannot account for abilities that alter the past, as seen when Shukuro Tsukishima was able to was able to rewrite the past of Ichigo's Bankai, Tensa Zangetsu , after Yhwach used his ability to break it. He did so with his Book of the End, which allowed the blade to be fixed. Similarly, it might also be possible for Uryu Ishida's "The Antithesis" to counter The Almighty with its capacity to switch the effects of an event or action between two targets. Lastly, The Almighty will also be temporarily disabled if Yhwach loses his powers for a time, in case his blood comes into contact with the Still Silver produced in the hearts of Quincy chosen to become his Auswahlen victims.
