Uryu Ishida

Age: 17 years Height: 177 centimeters Weight: 77 kilograms Nationality: Japanese Race: Quincy

Uryu was born after Ryuken and Kanae Katagiri's wedding, which occurred after Masaki Kurosaki, whom Ryuken's mother had originally wanted him to marry, was infected. Six years ago, before he befriended Ichigo Kurosaki, his mother collapsed on the same day Masaki died, June 17th, and died three months later when Yhwach used Auswählen and stole her powers.[15]

As a child, Uryū primarily interacted and trained with his grandfather, Soken Ishida. His father, Ryūken Ishida, was less than enthusiastic about him being a Quincy, claiming it was an unprofitable profession. As a result, they don't seem to be on very good terms, given Uryū's casual use of his father's name. Soken understands Ryūken's reasoning, as Quincy is more about justice than material rewards, and Ryūken needs to provide for his family. Soken told Uryū that someday he would understand his father's motives, but for now, that wasn't the case. This was compounded by Uryū watching Ryūken dissect Kanae's dead body, and he begged his father to stop. That same day, he decided he would never become a doctor.[16]

At a fairly young age, Uryū's grandfather was killed by Hollows right in front of him, and Uryū was unable to do anything to protect him.[17] This was one of the reasons he hates the Shinigami who did not come to save Soken in time.[17] After entering Soul Society, he discovers that Mayuri Kurotsuchi bribed some of the Shinigami assigned to protection not to protect the Quincy so he could take their souls for research at the Shinigami Research Institute. He also learns that Soken died screaming Uryū's name while being dismembered by Mayuri, causing Uryū to transfer his anger to the captain.[18]

Uryū is generally quiet and solitary, but tries to put in the effort when other people are around. Uryū is a member of the Handicrafts Club at Karakura High School and is highly skilled in sewing. While Uryū doesn't mind sewing things for his friends, his sense of design leads him to add unexpected designs. For example, when he makes new clothes for Chad and Orihime, he replaces one red line of Chad's original shirt with a red cross, saying it looked better that way, and since he couldn't copy the three white dots on Orihime's shirt, he instead adds frilly lace and two flower buds at the bottom.[11] Uryū has low blood pressure and hates procrastination.[12] Other things he hates are rather odd: buttons (despite the fact that he knows how to sew)[12] and the word "random". His favorite food is mackerel stew with miso.[12] He enjoys the TV program Bura-Rei with Don Kanonji so much that he attends the live broadcast of the filming in Karakura Town.[13]

He enjoys wearing a robe, though it serves no purpose other than to make him feel more cool, despite it hindering his movement, even holding him back. He has a tendency to speak melodramatically. Uryū is sometimes shown to be gullible. During an omake, he becomes annoyed by the idea of ​​a weapon (in this case, a Zanpakutō) having a will of its own; Ichigo tricks him into thinking that Ginrei Kojaku has actually materialized, causing Uryū to shed a happy tear.[14] Uryū operates according to a moral ethic known as "Quincy pride" and has a strong sense of justice. He is very honorable, stating that he acts justly against men who insult or mistreat women, which leads him to try to protect Rukia Kuchiki from Renji Abarai when he and Byakuya Kuchiki came to the Human World to arrest her, and protects Orihime Inoue during their time in Soul Society. Uryu tends not to use lethal force.

Uryu Ishida is a teenager of average height and slim build, wearing glasses. He has straight, chin-length black hair that frames his face on both sides, a pale complexion, and blue eyes. At school, Uryu wears the appropriate school uniform, complete with a tie. When confronting Hollows, he typically wears a white Quincy robe with blue stripes representing the Quincy Cross and a mantle.

Seventeen months after Aizen's defeat, Uryū's bangs hang mostly off the right side of his face, with the rest tucked behind his left ear due to his glasses.[9] After joining the Wandenreich, Uryū wears a white double-breasted coat underneath a long white trench coat. The coat is fastened with three buttons emblazoned with the Quincy Zeichen on both sides, with a white belt with a gold buckle around his waist. His shoulder straps are pinned to the neckline, and the inside of his collar has a rectangular symbol on both sides. Uryū also wears a pin resembling a winged star surrounded by a halo on his right chest.[10]
