Name: Ishida Uryuu
Age: 16
Gender Male
Appearance:
Personality: Ury¨± Ishida is a black-haired, bespectacled teenager of average height. He is a good student and is sometimes seen as the slightly awkward nerdy type. He has an unusual interest in sewing, as he is in the crafts club at school, and makes excellent grades, coming in first place on exams. Ury¨± is generally shy and quiet, but tries harder to act cool when other people are around, such as wearing clothes he likes.[7]
Ury¨± operates on a moral ethic known as the "Pride of the Quincy" and has a strong sense of justice. He has also shown to be very chivalrous, stating that he enacts justice on men who abuse or treat women badly. Ury¨± also has a tendency to prefer to simply incapacitate his opponent, not using lethal force in battle unless thoroughly provoked, especially if he can win without doing so.[8]
As a child, Ury¨± mostly interacted and trained with his grandfather, S¨ken Ishida. At a fairly young age, Ury¨±'s grandfather was killed by hollows right in front of him.[9] This is one of the reasons he hates Soul Reapers, who, despite keeping the old man under near-constant survellance, did not come to rescue S¨ken in time.[10][9] He long believed that the Soul Reapers were merely taking advantage of circumstances to be rid of him. It was later revealed that the current captain of the 12th Division, Mayuri Kurotsuchi, was behind the delay so that S¨ken's soul could be collected for study.
Powers: As a Quincy, Ury¨±'s main weapon is a bow, but he is also able to use many Quincy techniques and items to augment his abilities, including some high-level techniques such as rans¨tengai, which are rare enough that even Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who had studied 2661 Quincy, had never seen them in person. When first introduced, Ury¨± uses a bow named Lone Sparrow (»¡È¸, K¨jaku?), which has a basic (albeit exaggerated) form and a luminescent, translucent blue quality to its appearance. Being made of free-flowing spirit particles, its size can be affected the amount of spirit particles and spiritual pressure available to it, as seen in his interaction with Ichigo during his first encounter with a Menos Grande.
As preparation for his travel to Soul Society, Ury¨± later masters the sanrei glove, greatly increasing his abilities via a form of resistance training. In this state, Ury¨±'s bow is solid and covered in an intricate pattern. This new bow allows Ury¨± to fire several shots simultaneously.[11] By removing the glove, Ury¨± attains the Quincy Final Form. The Quincy Final Form gives him a vast increase in power, enough to defeat a captain-class shinigami with ease. As a result of removing the glove, however, the Quincy Final Form uses too much power for Ury¨±'s body to handle, causing his body to block his Quincy powers completely after it wears off.[12]
After Ury¨± regains his powers with the aid of his father, he uses a new Quincy cross, this one resembling a pentancle, and a variant of his original bow called Lone Sparrow on a Silver Cliff (ãyŽX»¡È¸, Ginrei K¨jaku?). Unlike his original bow, this bow is shaped like a spiderweb and can fire up to 1,200 shots at once. Ury¨± also steals a set of Seele Schneiders (»ê¤òÇФêÁѤ¯¤â¤Î£¨¥¼©`¥ì¥·¥å¥Ê¥¤¥À©`, Z¨¥re Shunaid¨¡?, German and Japanese for "soul cutter"), special arrows which can be used as swords. Seele Schneiders can also be used in a reiatsu-based pentacle with the target at the center. Upon receiving Uryu's spiritual energy, it explodes
Bow Description: Uryuu's bow has been modified it is a light green reiatstu now in an automatic fire mode and a reloadable reiatstu cartridge to replenish failing strength
History: After Ichigo Kurosaki gains the Soul Reaper powers of Rukia Kuchiki, Ury¨± confronts him in an attempt to prove that Quincy are superior. Using some special bait, Ury¨± attracts a swarm of hollows to Karakura Town so that he and Ichigo can compete to see who can kill the most hollows in a day. This bait, however, attracts too many hollows, including a menos grande, and Ury¨± and Ichigo are forced to band together. They drive the menos off, but its brief time in Karakura Town attracts the attention of Soul Society. Two Soul Reapers are dispatched to capture Rukia. Ury¨± confronts the two in an attempt to stop them, but is easily defeated by the much stronger Soul Reapers. After they return to Soul Society with Rukia, Ury¨± realizes that he is not as strong as he thought he was.
Wanting to go and save Rukia, Ury¨± trains to better equip himself for the next time he needs to battle a Soul Reaper. To this effect, he masters the sanrei glove, and joins the rescue team going to Soul Society. Their group is split up soon after their arrival, and Ury¨± ends up partnered with Orihime Inoue. Though the pair manage to avoid detection for some time, they are eventually found by 12th Division captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi, who quickly takes an interest in Orihime's abilities. Ury¨± sends her away to remove her from harm, and battles Mayuri in order to buy time.
As their battle progresses, Ury¨± proves to be no match for the captain. Nevertheless, Mayuri comments on Ury¨±'s impressive Quincy abilities, noting that the thousands of Quincy he has studied over the years fail to measure up to Ury¨±. Ury¨± removes his sanrei glove, greatly increasing his Quincy powers and allowing him to beat Mayuri. However, Mayuri is able to escape and Ury¨±, robbed of his Quincy powers by the long-term side effects of removing the glove, is easily captured by Kaname T¨sen. He is soon reunited with other members of his rescue team that have also been imprisoned, and they are freed by Kenpachi Zaraki. Upon reuniting with Ichigo and saving Rukia, the rescue team returns to the human world.
Back in Karakura Town, Ury¨± finds his father, Ry¨±ken Ishida. Disappointed by Ury¨±'s weakness, Ry¨±ken offers to restore his Quincy powers on the condition that Ury¨± never associate with Soul Reapers again. Ury¨± agrees and trains with his father whilst arrancar continue to attack Karakura Town. After the third arrancar invasion ends Ury¨± regains his powers, ending his training. After learning that Orihime has been captured by the arrancar, Ury¨± joins Ichigo and the remainder of a rescue team organized to save her. After they arrive in Hueco Mundo and their group splits up, Ury¨± is joined by Pesche Guatiche. Though Pesche continues to annoy Ury¨±, he proves invaluable in defeating Cirucci Thunderwitch. As they continue on their way they meet Renji Abarai as he is about to be killed by the eighth Espada, Szayel Aporro Granz. Ury¨± intervenes and is briefly able to drive Szayel off, but Szayel soon returns and forces Ury¨±, Renji, Pesche and Dondochakka into a corner. Just as their last hope of winning fades, Mayuri arrives and rescues them through deceit and his scientific mind.
