The Espada are the ten strongest arrancar in S?suke Aizen's army, and each of them represents an aspect of death. They are ranked in order of their strength and have their respective number tattooed somewhere on their body as proof of their superiority. Nnoitora, Barragan, Grimmjow, Aaroniero, Harribel, Yammy, Starrk, Ulquiorra, Szayel Aporro, Zommari. Luppi temporarily replaces Grimmjow Jeagerjaques as the Sexta Espada, signified by the "6" tattooed to his right hip. He has a youthful and feminine appearance, and tends to be rather demeaning to opponents or those of lower ranks. The remains of his hollow mask (a top row of teeth) rests on the left side of his head. Sent on a mision, later learning to his annoyance that it was a distraction, Luppi overpowered Hitsugaya's assigned group personally until he is defeated by Hitsugaya himself. Falling back while learning his role in Aizen's scheme to get her to Las Noches, Luppi saw Orihime to be of no use to them until she regenerates Grimmjow's arm to his shock. After Orihime restores Grimmjow's tatoo as well, the latter kills Luppi to regain his rank.
