| “ | No world is without sacrifices. Doesn't he realize it? This sea of blood covered in ashes...we refer to this hell as the world. | „ |
| ~ Tier Harribel |
| “ | Our existence is built upon the noble sacrifices made. Instead, you fall in battle from trying to protect your subordinates. My subordinates were not simply defeated. They left behind markers for me, on how to carry on the fight. If I had lost, my subordinates' sacrifices would have all been for nothing. I hold within me the resolve of those who sacrificed their lives. | „ |

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Cero: A powerful blast of concentrated spiritual energy fired in a laser like fashion that only Hollows, Arrancars, and Visoreds can use. The power, force, speed, and blast area of the Cero is dependent on the strength, spiritual power, and sometimes skill of the user.
- Gran Rey Cero: A much more powerful Cero only accessible to the Espada. By mixing their blood with a Cero, the Espada can discharge a blast that can distort space and is powerful enough to destroy Las Noches.
- Cero Oscuras: A powerful Cero that can only be used by the Espada in their Resurrección. It increases the attack power by an order of magnitude.
Bala: An Arrancar ability similar to Cero, except it's weaker and 20 times faster.
Descorrer: A technique used by Arrancar to travel between Hueco Mundo and other worlds, creating a spiritual pathway called a Garganta with a gesture, walking through this portal to arrive at their destination in an instant.
Hierro: A defensive technique used by Arrancar that toughens their skin by reinforcing it with condensed Reiryoku, allowing an Arrancar to confront an armed Shinigami with their bare hands. All Arrancar use this ability in some form to gain their supernatural toughness, but even an exceptionally powerful Hierro can be bypassed by focusing one's Reiryoku to a finer, sharper point.
Pesquisa: A perception technique used by Arrancar, which sends out a pulse that detects nearby sources of Reiatsu and gauging their power.
Sonído: A technique used by Arrancar that allows for high-speed movement, effectively analogous to the Shunpo used by Shinigami, and used in bursts to traverse distances quickly and fight at these high speeds.
Resurrección: The Arrancar equivalent of a Shikai/Bankai, this form allows an Arrancar to unleash their true power as a Hollow.
Tiburón: Harribel's Resurrección. Its release command is Destroy, and when released, it surrounds her in a surge of water from which she exits, with the remains of her mask growing to become a collar and transforming Tiburón into a large, broad pata resembling a shark's tooth. This transformation allows Harribel to create and control water, producing it from the gill slits on the sides of her sword. Her physicals are greatly increased as well.
- Ola Azul: A technique used by Harribel prior to releasing her Zanpakutō, which gathers Reiryoku within the hollow part of blade, which she releases with a slash, firing a blade of energy at her target. She can concentrate this energy within her blade to release it in close combat while attacking.
- Cascada: Harribel releases a violent surge of water at her target, a torrent that can travel over and flood multiple city blocks.
- Hirviendo: Harribel points Tiburón forwards, boiling any water around it, including ice, and dissipating it around herself harmlessly.
- La Gota: Condensing large amounts of water around her blade, Harribel then fires it as a concentrated blast shaped similarly to a shark's tooth. She can fire multiple of these blasts in quick succession.
- Trident: Harribel infuses her sword with energy, and then releases it in a rapid series of three shots with a slash, an attack powerful enough to cleave an opponent in half.
Caja Negación: A device provided to the Espada by Sosuke Aizen, the Caja Negación can be used to isolate a target, trapping them in in a separate dimension from which they cannot escape, but it cannot hold those of Espada-level strength for long.
