Yylfordt Granz

Yylfordt is a sarcastic, effeminate arrancar with long blond hair. What remains of his hollow mask is on the top of his head, and looks like a broken helmet. He commonly refers to other characters as "brother" when speaking. He was the older brother of Szayel Aporro Granz, the 8th Espada. Yylfordt is fairly powerful for his rank, able to fight off Renji Abarai's bankai (at 20% power) without releasing his zanpakutō. In contrast, however, he is little match for the surprisingly strong Ururu Tsumugiya in his normal state, but easily dispatches her once he releases his zanpakutō. He is eventually killed by Renji, who notes that if Yylfordt hadn't been distracted, he might not have been able to defeat him.

Yylfordt's zanpakutō is named Del Toro (蒼角王子（デルトロ）, Derutoro?, Spanish for "of the bull," Japanese for "pale-horned prince") and is released by the phrase "skewer" (焼串, tsukikudake?). When Del Toro is released, Yylfordt's upper body enlarges and is covered in bull-like armor, while his mask seems to completely regenerate, giving him horns. In this form, he walks on four legs and uses his horns to skewer opponents.
