* Mayuri Kurotsuchi from Squad 12. He turns his own men into living bombs with the skin bubbling shown ''very'' clearly in the manga. He has ''no ears or lips'' either, and has a sickle attached to a fleshy cord in it that he can retract and detach at will. Finally his bankai Konjiki Ashisogi Jizo is a giant caterpillar with a baby's head that exhales poison and sprouts swords from its neck. Oh. And don't forget about how he planted those bacteria inside Ishida to track him? Immagine someone like Mayuri watching your every move, through millions of microscopic cameras hidden inside your own body, to collect intel on how he can eventually kill you, or anyone you meet.
* Sosuke Aizen. On the outside, he's the ideal captain every Shinigami inspires to be. But on the inside, he's evil incarnate. Not only did he betray Soul Society, he massacred the Central 46. His scheme is to kill 100000 humans in order to forge a key to the castle of the Soul King. And he also backstabbed Momo...literally. According to himself, he's above the morals and decency adopted by "lesser beings". In other words, he voluntarily chose to abandon his morals sometime ago. Unsurprisingly, once they manage to capture him, Soul Society sentences him to 20,000 years for all the horrific acts that he committed.
* Anything Szayel Aporro Granz pulled qualifies, too. From chomping into his little minion and devouring him whole, leaving a skinny arm dangling from his mouth to ''forcibly impregnating Nemu'', making her stomach grow to an unnatural proportion, and ''spew out of her mouth'' (in the manga, he ''burst out of her'' instead) as a liquid blob thing, leaving Nemu extremely wrinkled, dried out, and nearly dead.
* Ayon, the monster summoned by Harribel's fraccion, and the damage it causes. Matsumoto gets a piece ripped out of her. And if you thought that was bad, just wait till you actually see it's face.
* Hooler, the big tumorlike humanoid that Wonderweiss has just brought into the fake Karakura - [http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100706145830/bleach/en/images/f/f3/Fura_episode_278.jpg a vast white veiny thing with no head], which [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100713143410/bleach/en/images/8/80/Fura_Spits_Menos_Grande.png vomits up a bloodlike stream of Gillians]{{Dead link}}. Ew.
* Hollows. Super strong and super durable [[The Heartless]] who grow to the size of skyscrapers and turn into a myriad of [[Body Horror]], [[Eldritch Abomination]], and [[Humanoid Abomination]] afterward. Oh yeah, and they're invisible. Have fun sleeping.
* Ichigo having a giant bloody hole blasted through his chest. The fact that he then {{spoiler|runs around with that gaping hole in his chest somehow makes it worse.}} In an earlier fight, he was almost cut in half.
Line 16 ⟶ 17:
* Hollowification. If the victim stays for too long or grows too resentful, their "chain of fate" (a fairly long chain with tiny mouths gnashing out) starts to nibble at itself until it reaches the chest where it's attached. The illustrations show the transformation, where the former "Plus" dissipates and reforms as a Hollow as white stuff spills out their mouth and covers their face into a mask, to be quite painful.
** Also, when a Hollow's hunger becomes so strong that the souls of humans is no longer enough for it, it begins to eat OTHER HOLLOWS. This often leads to the creation of the mindless giant Gillian-class Menos, but may sometimes lead to Adjhucas, the level that hollows like Grimmjow were in before becoming arrancars.
* [[Super
* When Tousen {{spoiler|had a jaw sprout out of his otherwise-blank Hollow mask.}} Look at what happened to his arm...
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BolyIY_qzk4 first fight between Ichigo and Grimmjow], mostly because Ichigo being [[No
* Oh cool, we're finally learning Tousen's motivations and he's [[Villainous Breakdown|going crazy]]. AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!
** Just look at the distance between his eyes. And the worst is, despite having turned into an {{spoiler|insect-like abomination}}, there's still a part of his ''freaking human face'' left! With ragged teeth, of course. And the fact that he still talks (having gone batshit insane, but not significantly more than a few seconds ago before his transformation), yet is unable to recognize {{spoiler|his old friend, whose face flashed before him in his dying moments}} might put him downright into the depths of the [[Uncanny Valley]].
** Grillar Grillo in the anime, his eyes making a squishing noise as he opens them, and his voice suddenly going from deep and warped to psychotically high-pitched as he starts screaming his new [[Madness Mantra]] was just really unnerving.
* The [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AXrJeajif4U scene] in which {{spoiler|Hiyori}} nearly gets strangled to death by a {{spoiler|insane Hollowfied Ichigo}} with a huge [[Slasher Smile]] on his face. The English dub of that particular scene takes this up a notch. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pjlImtPnOEk Holy crap, Johnny Yong Bosch!] (start around 3:48) That crazy bone-chilling laughter...
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20151023113742/http://bleach.wikia.com/wiki/File:Arrancar_Hollow_Hole.jpg Nnoitra's Hollow hole and mask fragments]. It was revealed with him getting STABBED IN THE HEAD by Kenpachi.
* [[Master of Illusion|Aizen's shikai]]. From the moment you see it, ''you can never again fully trust any of your senses''. [[Paranoia Fuel|That's a pretty goddamn frightening thought right there.]] Then there's how he ''uses'' it; in particular, {{spoiler|tricking both Kyoraku and Hitsugaya into backstabbing poor Hinamori.}}
* When we finally get to see it, the release of {{spoiler|Wonderweiss}} looks like a [[D
* Menos Grandes, and the the other Adjuchas in Grimmjow's gang (before becoming Arrancars) have some very horrific physical forms and faces.
* Ninth Espada, Aaroniero Arruruerie ''definitely'' has the look of an ugly-ass [[Eldritch Abomination]]. His real "face" is {{spoiler|a large, glass cylindrical capsule filled with ''blood-red'' liquid and two small, floating Hollow ''heads'', that tend to talk at the same time when revealed, almost as if there's ''two people'' speaking to you. The upper head has a menacingly deep voice, while the other is more high-pitched and child-like, like that of a living doll or chipmunk}}. His zanpakuto is a deformed arm-like appendage with dozens of sprouting tentacles, concealed in his left hand under his glove. One of his powers is to ''absorb you into himself'', gaining all your memories and abilities, which he can perfectly mimic to any one else he comes into contact with, ''including peoples' faces''. He shape-shifts by forcing one of his heads through the glass, making it bubble into a coating of skin, which he then stretches to force the rest of the cylinder under. Finally, [http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080806095721/bleach/en/images/7/7c/Aaroniero_Arruruerie_Resurreccion.jpg let's take look at his released form]{{Dead link}}.... just ''imagine'' having to fight that '''thing'''.
* Chapter 403 gives us {{spoiler|Aizen's new form}}. As Ichigo himself states in the chapter: "What...the fuck...is that..."
** Following up on {{spoiler|Chrysalis-Aizen}}, this is what happens after he's hit with a big-ass Getsuga. Special note is that, when injured, he doesn't bleed, his skin ''cracks'' instead, with ''no'' reaction at all from the guy, implying that he can't feel ''anything'' anymore.
Line 33 ⟶ 34:
* Anime only, in the "New Captain" arc, where Ichigo gets locked in to his mind for a moment and tormented with the death of his mother, Masaki Kurosaki. She also starts choking him, intending to kill him while he is unable to harm her. The worst part is how her face was hidden in shadows/covered by her hair so you couldn't really see her expression.
** The nucleus of a Bakkoto looks like an eyeball. Gyokaku ''kept them on his desk''. Then, when Amagai {{spoiler|kills Gyokaku}}, he takes them with him and then ''wears them like a sash'', looking like he has four eyeballs growing across his chest.
* In the manga, Grimmjow kicking Loly in the stomach so hard that it causes her to vomit, and ripping off her leg. The look of absolute ''terror'' in her eye says it all. Also look at how badly Loly [https://web.archive.org/web/20140629091405/http://read.mangashare.com/Bleach/chapter-273/page010.html disfigured] Orihime's face.
* Ulquiorra ripping out and crushing his eye. To say nothing of how he brutalized this dude.
* Yammy's released forms, [https://web.archive.org/web/20121129234813/http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100602072622/bleach/en/images/a/a9/Yammy_Release_Anime.jpg this dinosaur-esque creature] and [https://web.archive.org/web/20121129234813/http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091201135324/bleach/en/images/6/66/Yammy_second_form.jpg a giant ape thing]..
* Kurotsuchi showing Uryu a picture of his grandfather's soul after Kurotsuchi had finished experimenting on it. Mild compared to the worst of the examples on this page, but still horrifying in retrospect. It's bad enough to be shown the mangled corpse of a stranger who ''might'' be a distant relative, but if that corpse happens to belong to your much-beloved grandfather, you'd probably be having nightmares for a while afterwards.
* Chapter 409: Upon reaching {{spoiler|the real Karakura Town, Aizen began ''randomly slaughtering passerbys.'' Keep in mind, most of which ''can't even see him.''}} And he isn't even doing so with intent; his [[Battle Aura]] is so strong, anything made of reishi (spirit particles), which includes peoples' souls, that isn't used to such a strong aura, gets ''splattered''. Only those that actually have something to resist can ''try'' to survive. That means Aizen is now currently so powerful that his mere presence is enough to kill ''the entire human population''. Oh. He also {{spoiler|goes after Ichigo's friends, intending to kill them in the hopes that it'll provoke Ichigo into becoming more powerful}}.
* The Menos Forest was rather creepy. Just a gray floor with dark gray pillars jutting up into a black abyss that is pretty much everything around you. And the fact that there are massive, and also rather frighting Gillians everywhere in the darkness.
* Metastacia. It's kinda hard to use words to describe this thing, so just use this [https://web.archive.org/web/20121129234907/http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100107154647/bleach/en/images/e/e9/Metastacia_Full_Body.png picture.] If anybody touches the tentacles on his back, their zanpakuto is broken, leaving them at his mercy. {{spoiler|[http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090315004608/bleach/en/images/d/d0/KaienMetastacia.jpg Poor Kaien.]}} And in the manga it was worse; ''there were tentacles sprouting out of his empty eye sockets.'' Not mentioning his habit of turning friend against friend. Imagine having to fight your friend, but it's not really your friend, even though you know it actually is.
* There was that scene when Muramasa invaded Ichigo's mind to control Zangetsu, and during the 'probing', Ichigo awoke on the ground of his inner world, then suddenly went to his inner hollows' version of that world, except that he was on the 'roof', with Muramasa standing a few feet in front of him. Without warning, a hole opens up on Ichigo's chest and '''dozens of arms forcibly erupt out from his very torso, wrapping around his entire body like a cocoon'''.
** And the part when, after being rejected and broken by Kouga, Muramasa underwent a ''horrific'' transformation into a Hollow himself, where his entire body, from head to toe, was literally and ''repeatedly enlarging from the inside-out, shrinking back in proportion immediately thereafter and enlarging once again after that, simultaneously boiling the skin at each time''.
* Tesra vs. Ichigo. Tesra goes [[One
* [https://web.archive.org/web/20101018003133/http://www.mangarush.com/manga/bleach/415/p-17 Chapter 415] What Aizen's cronies did to Matsumoto. {{spoiler|she was one of the people they beat up and took a piece of her soul to power up Aizen's Hougyoku}}. Made worse by the fact that the state they left her in makes it look like she was raped.
* 416. Up until now, Aizen has cleanly cut his enemies down. Then he [[For Massive Damage|slashed them across the chest]], then [[Broke Your Arm Punching Out Cthulhu|ripped off an arm]], [[Impaled
* Chapter 419. [http://www.manga-access.com/manga/B/Bleach/chapter/419/9\]. Aizen's transformation and his final form, now animated at ''[[
* Probably considered a [[Fridge Horror]], but after {{spoiler|Aizen is [[Brought Down to Normal]], during his trial he seems...well..back to his [[Magnificent Bastard|normal self]]. Could the whole [[Villainous Breakdown]] have been part of [[Gambit Roulette|his plan?]]}}
* {{spoiler|Kensei's first Hollowfication,}} which not only makes him go berserk, but makes pillars start to grow out of his back.
* In chapter 450 Ginjou ''[[Eye Scream|slashes Ichigo's eyes]]''. And in 451, he deals him a ''huge'' [[No
* Minor in comparison to the rest of this page, but seeing Hitsugaya in the anime viciously, determinedly stabbing his sword through Aizen's chest right up to the hilt for how deliberate it was. Not even taking into account [[Holy Shit Quotient|what happened next]]...
* Tsukishima and his Fullbring. The guy can rewrite the past of anyone and anything he cuts, and uses it to turn all of Ichigo's friends against him. The mindgames he plays on people are simply terrifying. [[Magnificent Bastard|Mr. Tite Kubo]], has [[Surreal Horror|truly outdone himself this time.]] He managed to make a [[Primal Fear|villain]] even ''[[Up to Eleven|MORE FRIGHTENING]]'' than [[Master of Illusion|Ai]][[Superpower Lottery|z]][[Complete Monster|en]].
* {{spoiler|Ginjo was already hit with "Book of the End", and being hit twice TURNED HIM BACK TO NORMAL: The actual villain of the arc}}. He and Tsukishima effectively took the very concept of [[True Companions]] that gives strength to so many [[Shonen Genre]] protagonists, [[Deconstructed Trope|defeated it, and virtually made it their bitches]].
* Chapter 462: [https://web.archive.org/web/20111015014548/http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/11 Tsukishima mindraping Orihime and Chad] [https://web.archive.org/web/20111015014553/http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/12 when they start breaking off] [https://web.archive.org/web/20111013184709/http://mangastream.com/read/bleach/90527597/13 from his control]. He seems to be enjoying it too.
** This also happens to be the first time we're seeing things ''from the perspective of somebody affected by him. Even {{spoiler|Ginjo}}, [[Pragmatic Villainy|dislikes]] Tsukishima's usage of his Fullbring as it can completely destroy the victim's MIND and make them [[Empty Shell
* Kutsuzawa collides into the [[Uncanny Valley]] with [http://images.wikia.com/bleach/en/images/8/8e/Girikoenlargedform.png this unsettling transformation].
* {{spoiler|The monsters that Yukio summoned into his fullbring and [[Hoist
* The backgrounds of some of the Fullbringers: Jackie returning home with her dead brother in her arms to find her family slaughtered. Or Kutsuzawa killing his own wife on a whim. Riruka kidnapping a guy she liked and locking him in a dollhouse... And what exactly happened to Yukio's parents?
* Rukia in Ganju's flashback {{spoiler|when she returned with Kaien's body to the Shiba residence.}} The look in her eye is just...terrifying.
Line 64 ⟶ 65:
** Also, {{spoiler|Yamamoto}} [[Tranquil Fury|is]] [[Badass Grandpa|pissed.]] SCARINGLY [[Nightmare Face|pissed.]]
* Ulquiorra's psychological torture of Orihime was quite unsettling, especially the part where he threatened to force feed her and then strap her down to a table and give her intravenous therapy when she refused to eat after he ordered her to.
* Zommari releasing Brujería. [http://images.wikia.com/bleach/en/images/4/4c/Zommari_Releases.gif Heads should not turn that way]{{Dead link}} - ''especially without moving the neck!''
* Chapter 492: Ayon's rampage is an in-universe moment, but the biggest one is after the rampage: {{spoiler|Kirge is still alive after having his neck snapped like a twig, and just puts it back in place.}}
** For worse, how did we learn about it? {{spoiler|When Apacci approaches him to boast... and all of a sudden, she gets [[Impaled
* Chapter 493: {{spoiler|We get to see the [[Sarcasm Mode|pleasant]] sight of people's flesh being}} '' {{spoiler|disintegrated from their bones.}}'' {{spoiler|Up to and including seeing seeing [[Lightning Bruiser|Ayon]] being [[Did You Just Punch Out Cthulhu?|reduced to a skeleton]], in a way somehow much more gruesome than the similar fate of those affected by Baraggan's ability.}}
** Which leads to this [https://web.archive.org/web/20190711024214/http://i997.mangapanda.com/bleach/493/bleach-3325163.jpg humanoid abomination of a one-winged angel].
* All of the Espadas except for Starrk have their moments.
** Aaroniero's [[Eldritch Abomination|released form]].
Line 74 ⟶ 75:
** Zommari twisting his neck like that to transform.
** Grimmjow's brutal beatdown of Ichigo, as well as {{spoiler|blasting half of Menoly's body off and ripping Loly's leg off her ''with his bare hands''}}, and choking Orihime when she questions him.
** Nnoitra's brutal beatdown of Ichigo and [[I Have You Now, My Pretty|the way he acts toward Orihime]].
** Ulquiorra's [[Rule of Three|brutal beatdown of Ichigo]], his psychological torture of Orihime ''and'' his mix of physical torture and mutilation of Ishida.
** Harribel's [[More Teeth Than the Osmond Family|mask]].
Line 83 ⟶ 84:
* Originally we thought that there were only 7 Stern Ritter, 7 Stern Ritter than completely annihilated 1/3 of the Seireitei, then in Chapter 495 we find out that they're ranked by letter and Rose comes face to face with Nanana Najahkoop who is Stern Ritter '''U'''...U being the ''21st'' letter of the alphabet...that means there is a strong chance there are 26 Stern Ritter...look at how much destruction those 7 caused, and it turns out that there are literary '''THREE TIMES MORE OF THEM'''.
** They're probably all there; eleven pillars of light can be seen on panel, and probably more off, when they first touch down, and some didn't appear until the next chapter, Nanana included. Not that this helps much...
* [[Spikes of Villainy|As Nodt]] screams this. [[Black Eyes of Evil|Pitch black eyes]], check. An [[One
** The shinigami killed by Nodt ''keep on screaming even after they die''.
