Now, usually, we have 13 captains, but due to recent events. 3 have become traitors. Its really more like the Gotei 10 ;D
Anyways, espada and gotei, both 10 members. Buts thats not the main similarity that they have. Oh no.
As already pointed out, Kyouraku is quite like stark. But it doesn't stop there. This is a trend a spotted not so long ago. For each captain, there seems to be an espada who mirrors them.
Kyouraku and Stark
Both are laid back, and chilled. Often found lazing around somewhere, not that bothered about their duties. There could be more here, but we've seen little enough from stark.
Byakuya and Zommari
Not most of you probably aren't sure who Zommari actually is. He's the black espada, No 7, and one of the oldest serving espada actually.
Anyways, the similarities here are two quiet, mono toned, and proud as hell men. Both see honour above else. Well you get the picture I think. They're both pompous fools.
Zaraki and Nnoitra
These two couldn't be more similar. Nnoitra is the guy who ends up slashing up Chad. Both Kenny and Nnoitra believe themselves to be the strongest out there, or at least they like to think so. Both also fight for the same reasons. Proving they're better, fun. You, typical Zaraki.
Mayuri and Szayel
The obvious by far. Honestly, if you didn't notice the slightest resemblance, then shame on you. Both run their respective Research departments, and both carry out sick minded experiments on un-willing subjects. Both have the same fighting tactics. They like to study their opponent before battle, as well as sacrificing their subordinates in order to win.
Yammamoto and Bargan
Both Carry the No 1. Bargan is old man, as Yammamoto. Also, both are stuborn old gits really. The similarities are right their on face value mostly, since we haven't seen too much of Bargan yet in the manga.
**spoiler**
Also, all the pairings that I've noted have faced off in battle, or are about too. Apart from Bargan and Yammamoto, but you can see it coming.
Ok, so that leaves us with a few left over. We know nothing about Halibel yet, but I can guess that we'll see some similarities between Halibel and Soi Fon.
*edit* I just read the latest manga. Nothing between Soi Fon & Halibel
A long shot, but you could almost class Ichigo and Grimmjow. They seem sorta close, and Grimmjow did rant about the two fighting for similar reasons. But I dunno really if it works.
But that would leave, Aaroniero, Yammy, and Ulquiorra. As well as, Komamaru, Hitsugaya, Ukitake, and Unohana.
At one point I though Ulquiorra and Byakuya. But after Zommari came along, no chance.
Really, my guess is that this only applies to a handful of Espada and Captains, but you can try to spot something, or even correct me if you want. But its an interesting few points.
