I think one should be antagonistic to one's underlings. It keeps them on their toes. ~Soi Fon

In Japan there is a lot of manga, but around manga there are video games, manga on cellphones, manga in card games... so people not only enjoy manga but also the products around it.

Even if you rise up a thousand times, your side will never achieve victory. ~Ulquiorra

We stand in awe before that which cannot be seen. We respect with every fiber of our being that which cannot be explained.

Never admit defeat and ask for a quick death! Die first, then admit defeat! If you are defeated but didn't die, it just means you were lucky! At those times, think only about survival! Survive and think only about killing the one who failed to kill you!

People have hope because they cannot see Death standing behind them.

I've decided. I'm going to become a Shinigami. Become a Shinigami and change things. So that they'll end... without Rangiku having to cry.
