About
ノイトラ・ジルガ
Nnoitra Jiruga is the fifth Espada of ten, signified by the "5" tattoo on his tongue. He has long, black hair, and typically wears a huge smile on his face which reveals his upper teeth. Nnoitra also wears a large eyepatch that covers most of the left side of his face. His hollow hole and mask fragments are behind the eyepatch, the latter consisting of a small set of jawbones and teeth surrounding his hollow hole.
Nnoitra is rude and lecherous, accented by his snake-like eye and his nickname for Orihime Inoue: "pet-sama". He longs to prove himself as the strongest of the Espada, and thus does not waste his time killing those he deems as weaklings. Despite this, he doesn't object to attacking stronger, injured opponents. Nnoitra is a firm believer in male chauvinism, and constantly tries to see to it that women who are stronger than men are given a more appropriate inferior rank.
Despite his fragile and thin appearance, Nnoitra is quite powerful, able to fend off powerful attacks without any sign of injury. According to Nnoitra, this is due to him having the toughest hierro of any Espada past and present. He also fires cero blasts from the tip of his tongue, while other arrancar either use their full mouth or hands. By touching his fingertip to the ground, Nnoitra can track and measure sources of spiritual power.
His zanpakutō, Santa Teresa (サンタテレサ - Japanese for "sacred crying mantis"), takes the form of a giant axe-like weapon bearing two crescent moon blades fused together at their backs with a large-looped chain connected to a ring at the knob of the shaft. In flashbacks to his time as the 8th Espada, Nnoitra's zanpakutō only possesses one outward-facing crescent moon, as opposed to the two it features now. Its release command is "pray" (祈れ, inore). When released, Nnoitra gains two additional sets of arms, each wielding identical scythe-like blades produced from the folds of his wrists. He usually conceals the second set to surprise opponents. His hollow mask changes, looking torn and gaining jagged teeth. He also grows a pair of horns on his head, one longer on one side than the other, mimicking the cresent shape of his sealed zanpakutō. Nnoitra's wounds heal almost instantly in his released state, and he can also regenerate severed limbs.
