Highlights
The Visored, a group of Shinigami with Hollow powers, emerged after the Hollowfication Incident caused by Sosuke Aizen's experiments.
Every Visored member possesses incredible strength, speed, and Reiatsu, which are heightened by their Hollow masks, making them exceptionally powerful. Among the Visored are Mashiro Kuna, Hiyori Sarugaki, Lisa Yadōmaru, Hachigen Ushoda, Rojuro Otoribashi, Love Aikawa, Kensei Muguruma, Shinji Hirako, and Ichigo Kurosaki, each exhibiting distinct abilities and combat techniques.
After the Hollowfication Incident in Soul Society, a group of Lieutenant and Captain-level Shinigami emerged who were able to wield Hollow powers. They obtained these abilities as a result of Sosuke Aizen's experiments and were stabilized by Kisuke Urahara using an object he created called the Hogyoku. These individuals, known as the Visored, were banished from Soul Society for violating the rules by acquiring Hollow powers. They sought refuge in the Human World and honed their newfound abilities, which manifested as a mask on their faces. The Visored considered themselves enemies of Aizen and played a crucial role in the Gotei 13's clash against him and the Espada during the Battle of Fake Karakura Town. With their Hollow masks, they possess enhanced speed, strength, and Reiatsu, making each member of the Visored exceptionally powerful, which is unsurprising considering their previous ranks among the Gotei 13.
9 Mashiro Kuna
Mashiro is primarily skilled in the Hakuda combat style, making her quite distinct. What sets her apart is her ability to keep her Hollow mask on for an impressive duration of almost 15 hours, even when not in a stressful situation. This kind of connection with her inner Hollow is truly extraordinary. Additionally, she experiences significant improvements in her speed, strength, and resilience, allowing her to easily break the masks of Hollows belonging to the Gillian class.
Mashiro possesses an impressive amount of Reiatsu, equivalent to that of a Lieutenant. Furthermore, she showcases her formidable power by unleashing a potent Cero attack using her kicks. However, her fighting style does have its flaws, leaving her vulnerable to counterattacks. As a result, she is ranked at the bottom.
8 Hiyori Sarugaki
Hiyori Sarugaki, a Visored with Lieutenant-class Reiatsu, possesses an aggressive fighting style that demands respect. Her formidable nature and ruthless approach make her a force to be reckoned with in battle. However, her aggression sometimes backfires, as her impulsive nature and short temper often lead her to charge into combat without a strategic plan.
As a skilled fighter, Hiyori wields a Zanpakuto in the form of a serrated cleaver, excelling both in close-quarter combat and hand-to-hand combat, particularly when donning her Hollow mask. Additionally, she displays exceptional proficiency in utilizing Cero-based attacks, surpassing even her fellow Visored.
7 Lisa Yadōmaru
Lisa Yadomaru, despite her rank as a Lieutenant, is renowned for her immense reserves of Reiryoku, rivaling those of Captain-level Shinigami. She excels in the mastery of Shunpo and possesses extraordinary proficiency in combining her Zanpakuto and hand-to-hand combat techniques, focusing particularly on potent kicks.
When her Shikai is activated, it transforms into a colossal polearm featuring a blade resembling a Monk's spade on one end and a weighty ball on the other. These abilities are further enhanced when she wears her Hollow mask.
6 Hachigen Ushoda
Playing a significant role in defeating the 2nd Espada, Baraggan Louisenbairn, Hachigen Ushoda, also known as "Hacchi," excels in creating barriers through his exceptional Kido abilities and strategic thinking to outsmart opponents. He is inherently a pacifist and struggles with swordplay, Shunpo, and physically demanding tasks.
Having held the position of Lieutenant in the Kido Corps under Tessai Tsukabishi, Hacchi is a master of Kido. He has developed advanced barriers, capable of detecting and concealing Reiatsu, and even employs his barriers for offensive purposes.
5 Rojuro Otoribashi
Rojuro Otoribashi, also known as "Rose," is a formidable swordsman and currently holds the rank of Captain in the Gotei 13 3rd Division. Prior to his involvement in the Hollowfication Incident, he already held this position. Rose exhibits exceptional skill with his Zanpakuto, which transforms into a golden whip when activated in its Shikai state.
His powers revolve around musical elements, enabling him to create illusions that inflict physical harm. When he reaches his Bankai state, his abilities reach new heights. Additionally, Rose possesses the ability to wear a Hollow mask, similar to other Visoreds, though he can only sustain it for three minutes at a time, excluding Mashiro.
4 Love Aikawa
Love Aikawa, formerly the Captain of the 7th Division in the Gotei 13, is known for his cleverness, strength, and merciless combat skills. As one of the Visored, he possesses great intuition, allowing him to accurately assess his opponent's abilities and strategize accordingly. His fighting style is explosive, both literally and figuratively.
In his Shikai release, Love's Zanpakuto transforms into a colossal black kanabo, a two-handed club, which harnesses the power of fire to enhance its impact. During the Battle of Fake Karakura Town, he showcased his immense prowess by facing off against both the 1st Espada, Coyote Starrk, and Aize, utilizing only his Shikai and Hollow mask.
3 Kensei Muguruma
Kensei Muguruma, the Captain of the 9th Division in the Gotei 13, possesses exceptional skills as a hand-to-hand combatant. His Zanpakuto, a wind-type weapon, allows him to manipulate air currents and unleash powerful attacks. In its Shikai state, the Zanpakuto transforms into a deadly combat knife, enabling Kensei to launch blades of wind and energy with devastating results.
When Kensei activates his Bankai, the combat knife undergoes a transformation into a pair of knuckle blades. This amplifies his punches, generating explosive force upon impact. Additionally, Kensei's Hollow mask further enhances his destructive prowess, pushing his power to unimaginable levels.
2 Shinji Hirako
Shinji Hirako, the commanding figure of the Visored and the esteemed Captain of the 5th Division, demonstrates formidable skills as a swordsman, exhibiting exceptional proficiency in Shunpo and Kido. Additionally, he possesses keen tactical acumen and possesses an overwhelming amount of spiritual power. Moreover, his Shikai ability possesses the extraordinary capability to completely upend an opponent's perception of reality, rendering it exceedingly difficult to defend oneself.
His Bankai, on the other hand, surpasses all expectations in terms of dreadfulness, so much so that it has been unequivocally prohibited within the entirety of Soul Society. This stern ban is imposed due to its capability to transform friends into enemies, resulting in the merciless slaughter of his adversaries by their own hands, without prejudice.
1 Ichigo Kurosaki
Ichigo is undeniably a member of the Visoreds, despite not being one of the original members. He possesses all the qualifications required for admission into this group. His extraordinary growth rate, unparalleled levels of Reiatsu, and diverse heritage as a Shinigami, Quincy, and Hollow establish him as a valuable asset. Ichigo possesses the remarkable ability to quickly comprehend intricate techniques. Moreover, he excels primarily as a highly skilled swordsman, showcasing his immense talent. In a remarkably brief period of time, Ichigo surpassed the speed and strength of a Captain-level Shinigami upon initially becoming a Shinigami himself. His Zanpakuto, Zangetsu, invokes fear in all who face its immense power.
