Shinigamification

From Bleach Wiki

See also: Hollowification and Hollowfication/Shinigamification

Shinigamification is a process where a Hollow acquires Shinigami powers, which creates an Arrancar. This can either occur naturally, such as the case of the Privaron Espada, or by use of the Hōgyoku, as is the case with the current Espada and their Fracción.

Hollows who have undergone shinigamification gain a Zanpakutō. Despite the fact they have a Zanpakutō, it varies with a Shinigami's Zanpakutō in the way an Arrancar's Zanpakutō is their true Hollow powers sealed in the form of a sword. A Shinigami's Zanpakutō on the other hand, is a manifestation of its owner's soul.

The Hollows who normally go under Shinigamification with the Hōgyoku are those of Menos-class chosen by Sōsuke Aizen. After the process is over, those Hollows are now considered Arrancar and serve under Aizen. Most of the Arrancar pledge loyalty to Aizen, mainly because Shinigamification helps them gain new powers and become stronger.
