Vogel Grimmjow never made it to the Vasto Lorde class, he was recruited as an Adjuchas. The Arrancar page at Bleach wikia indicates that Arrancar existed before Aizen and his Hogyoku, so the Espada are the top ten Arrancar within Aizen's army.

Jade Jade 1. This answer covers similar ground to an existing answer. Unfortunately, you're not adding anything new here. For Vasto lorde are weak Ordinary Hollows are derived from single human souls: when a person dies with attachments to the mortal realm, their soul is bound by a chain, and once the chain is broken, a hole emerges in their chest and they mutate into a beastly Hollow.

Often, that's the epitome of the Hollow form, but they can advance far beyond that , and the Vasto Lordes, a breed seldom seen in the anime series, are the ultimate Hollows. Even Soul Reaper Captains fear them. Hollows are eternally hungry, desperate to fill the hollow hole in their bodies a futile quest. Their main food source is human souls of the living and dead alike , but some Hollows are so ravenous, they turn cannibal.

If enough cannibal Hollows meld together in mutual hunger, they will actually fuse to create a hive-minded giant: a Gillian-class Menos Grande. These creatures are uniform in appearance and operate on instinct, but if one Hollow inside has a strong will, it can assert control over the whole and regain its independence.

The entire Gillian will mutate again and assume a unique shape, and from there, it must keep eating other Hollows to maintain the strength necessary to stay unique. If not, the Gillian will revert back to its original state, and these unique Gillians are desperate to avoid falling back into the mindless horde inside.

The strongest Gillians can mutate into an Adjuchas, a smaller, more powerful Hollow that must continue to devour other Hollows at all times. But as Grimmjow and his Gillian allies found out, Menos Grandes cannot evolve beyond that point if they do not have the seed of a Vasto Lorde inside. In short, a Vasto Lorde is destined to be, and the likes of D. The process by which a soul becomes a Hollow usually takes months to years to complete, reflected by the length of the soul's Chain of Fate , which usually resides in the center of their chest, and connects to their bodies, if present.

The process can be accelerated under certain conditions, such as being attacked by a Hollow, giving into extreme despair, or using certain spiritual powers.

When the chain completely decays, they become a Hollow when a hole opens up on their chest where the chain was attached, signifying they have lost their heart. Fishbone D , the first Hollow Ichigo encounters. Once a soul becomes a Hollow, it is driven by an eternal and insatiable hunger to devour other souls, living or dead, to fill the void caused by its descent. While their former obsession often becomes their first target, most Hollows will eventually become mindless creatures concerned only with finding the most potent souls to devour.

Stronger and more evil Hollows are often able to retain some of their intelligence in Hollow form, making them more dangerous than the average Hollow. While most Hollows are evil, or at the very least mindless, at least a few are not, as is the case with Nel Tu and her Hollow companions. They are at least partly capable of camaraderie and loyalty, as seen with Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez and his companions while they were still Hollows; Grimmjow's subordinates voluntarily sacrificed parts of their bodies for the sake of Grimmjow's growth.

All Hollows wear masks, which are formed from the hearts they had lost as Humans. The mask can be shattered, temporarily allowing the Hollow to regain its original identity, but it will regenerate after a short period once the Hollow takes over again. Hollows have widely varying physical characteristics, rarely appearing the same.

In terms of appearance, Hollows can range in appearance from furry like mammals to lizard-like to outright demonic. Hollows vary in size, though it tends to be fairly consistent among the various classifications of Menos. In Hueco Mundo, some Hollows are no larger than common pets.

When a Hollow's heart is carved out by the hole in their chests, the lost heart becomes its mask and changes its outward appearance to what it looks like as a Hollow. The powers a Hollow wields are manifestations of its heart. Some Hollows, like White , are artificially created with the same material as Asauchi.

Hollows are usually killed by splitting their mask and head in two, [16] but most wounds which would be fatal for a Human will effectively dispatch them. In cases where a Hollow committed great sins as a mortal, its purification will summon the gates of Hell , through which the soul is dragged to its punishment. A Demi-Hollow that was originally a Jibakurei.

It usually takes a while for the earthbound spirit to fully transform into a Hollow, but this process can be sped up by forcing the hole in their chest to open. The Demi-Hollows are held down by chains, usually to a place they consider to be their territory.

They are usually only seen when a Human steps on their territory and cannot be easily sensed by Shinigami. Menos are conglomerations of hundreds of normal Hollows, resulting in a single composite entity of far greater strength than any normal Hollow.
