It's interesting that both Starrk and Yammy handled their power and status as differently as night and day. Starrk was unenthusiastic and when in battle did not wish to fight or even kill. Yammy meanwhile was just waiting to kill those he considered beneath him, his rage palpable.

Spiritual Power/Reiatsu is above everything else, for example Aizen SP was so big and dense that he could ignore Soi Fon 2 strike DEATH ability. Then in early bleach you have kenpachi with much bigger SP then Ichigo and he was able to negate being CUT. Later in the manga, you have one and only Yamamoto, whose SP was so big that even Aizen was afraid in fighting him 1v1, and when he fought fake Yhwach we saw why, his SP/Reiatsu was so big and desne that it took form of flame and was able to burn anything from existance.

Here's an amusing thing about the numbers: Since Shawlong was the oldest Números at 11, and number-changing was unique to Yammy, logically the default Espada ranks should be 1-10... however, apparently in the novels (haven't read them) Szayelaporro was revealed to have been the former Cero Espada. So, unless he too was a number-changer, the default ranking is 0-9 then... which would mean that without Yammy there's no rank 10! Another amusing thing: judging by the phrasing, Bleach Wiki seems to think that unreleased Yammy was a Números 😂 (btw: by process of elimination, Yammy's Números number was almost certainly 36). Otherwise, leaving Ulquiorra's second release out of the equation, I have no problem accepting Yammy as the strongest in terms of raw power. His offensive capabilities seemed to be limited to physical strength, Bala and Cero. Otherwise he seemed to be slow and unskilled, apparently incapable of Sonído, and with a lower-level Hierro than Nnoitra - ultimately making him just a huge target for strong enough opponents. But if the Espada were to go full Highlander on each other, I'd probably put my money on Baraggan.

In terms of combat capabilities, Yammy comes dead last. Stark did some heavy lifting, lasting as long as he did against four captains. Funny enough, as Stark was dying & recalling his comrades, Yammy was not shown.

Not at once, 2 separate 2 v 1’s in which all 4 didn’t use their Bankai. Yammy fought 2 and Striped Mask Ichigo for a bit, but all 3 has to go all out.

@@thewarrior8497 Kyoraku was having trouble with Starrk and whether you say he was stronger or not, they were relative. Byakuya and Kenpachi absolutely shredded through 2nd Form Yammy, when Res Yammy is already stronger than Starrk. Even if it was. 2 v 1, Byakuya and Zaraki have to individually be able to damage him, take his attacks, and avoid his attacks to deal any damage To put it into perspective, A somewhat wavering Striped Mask Ichigo with a Getsuga was only able to barely cut Yammy through his Hierro. Byakuya and Kenny shredded through his transformed state’s durability And Kyoraku in SAFWY which is between the FKT and Fullbring Arc admits that Zaraki is stronger than him

@@jocoolshowyammy is just a terrible fighter😭his constant need to underestimate his opponents and his very low IQ holds him back. Shunsui would beat both kenny and Byakuya is that arc especially with bankai. I do believe TYBW zaraki surpasses him but im talking about FKT zaraki. Its also stated in the databooks that kenpachi and Byakuya suffered great injuries in that fight from yammy (it could be kubo tryna justify yammh being 0 despite the lame reveal but its stated nonetheless). Starrk is a much faster, smarter and more impressive fighter then yammy even if yammy has more spirtual pressure. Yammy honestly was just a big target and punching bag for characters. Shunsui >> Byakuya and kenpachi until tybw. (What would they do against his shikai games which are very annoying to fight against and his bankai)

I like to believe Bleach has a well balanced power system where the one with the biggest number isn't the strongest just the one that hits harder similar to Naruto (before the war arc). . . . But then again...Bleach IS the type of anime where the one with the biggest number wins.

My own take is that reiatsu is the main basis of the ranking but since it’s partly proportional to hunted meals, reiatsu is usually proportional to skill. However there are exceptions such as Yammy who needs to eat some and rest some to get stronger therefore his power is disproportionate to his skill.

I think Yammy being 10 / 0 makes sense because of his ability. Rage does give him an unlimited power up, but there are two weaknesses here 1) when he is not in rage mode than he is nr 10 2) the more enraged he is the less control he has over himself and what is he doing - leaving him helpless against a smart enemy. Someone would say that it's fitting because 0 is not a number. On a podium you don't have a 0 spot. Nr 1 is nr 1.

Interesting. I've always thought that Barragan is the actual number 1. Since he was the King of Hueco Mundo and all. Since he hated Aizen and gave up the throne reluctantly, Aizen made him Number 2 as kind of a statement. As in: "You are number 2 to me and *I* am number 1. Know your place."

i have a question about espada and the arrancar and the hollow. why dont the shinigami dont kill/purify them after aizen is sealed? i mean like do they have something like agreement or anything? because its shinigami duty to purify the hollow. they dont just storm hueco mundo and purify every hollow? or their duty is to purify hollow but they cant purify all because will upset the balance of soul. they just purify the 1 who actively endangers some1. if the hollow just lay low dont attack any1 they dont purify.
