Gama vs. Findorr Calius (The Amplifying Tricksters)

VS.

When it comes to these two, they have an amplifier. An amplifier, in this case, is a unique ability that increases their strength & power. In both these respectful Anime, many characters have great amplifiers whether it's channeling energy through a weapon or channeling through one's body. These two are no exception as they utilize their unique amplifiers to boost up their morality in battle. Today I will be comparing these two unique characters, Findorr from Bleach & Gama from YYH. I will be comparing the following: Role in Story, Powers/Abilities, & Fight Record

Role in Story ~ Gama
Gama was introduced as being a member of Team Masho alongside Risho, Jin, Toya, & Bakken. He was the first opponent to fight Kurama (followed by Toya & Bakken) where he showcases his unique abilities of blood + paint. He managed to restrain Kurama's legs and spirit/demon power, but fell when Kurama managed to slice up Gama's body. Kurama gave him a choice - release the seal so that Gama would be sparred or die. In his final moments, he spews his blood all over Kurama in order for his spirit/demon energy to be sealed for a set amount of time. After Gama's death, Toya steps up to avenge his fallen brethren, hoping to take advantage of Kurama - who is still restrained of his spirit/demon energy. 

Role in Story ~ Findorr
Findorr, alongside Charlotte, Abirama, Poww, Ggio, and Nirgge are introduced as Baraggan's 6 Fraccion. Baraggan orders Findorr to summon hollows to attack the 4 pillars the Gotei 13 are protecting to conceal the real Karakura town, but the revealed Shinigami: Hisagi, Kira, Ikkaku, & Yumichika were the ones protecting the pillars. Findorr fights Hisagi and gradually amplifies his power so that he fight on par against Hisagi. Earlier, Hisagi remarked that he was considerably weak, but after Findorr showcases his Afinar ability - he becomes much much formidable agains the Shinigami. After cutting off bits and pieces of his mask, he is eventually at a Captain-level and/the release of his Ressurrecion, shows off his water-based attacks. However, he falls before Hisagi's Zanpaktou as he tries to escape. 

Powers/Abilities ~ Gama
What makes Gama's abilities unique is the idea that make-up can amplify one's spiritual energy and can do much more than just make a pretty face. Gama's abilities allows him to utilize his blood to amplify his spiritual energy (as shown when his speed and hand-to-hand are amplified). This ability is known as War Paint as it enhances Gama's strength and speed. By mixing in his blood and the paint, Gama was able to restrain Kurama's legs - as if he was being weighed down by something heavy. Gama, when he was killed by Kurama, put into effect one last curse, which sealed away Kurama's spirit/demonic energy for a set amount of time. In mixing his blood and his paint - he can strengthen his demonic energy and pretty much place curses on people when marked on specific parts of the body (EX: restraining Kurama's legs and restraining Kurama's chest). Even in death, Kurama was helpless against Toya & Bakken as he was unable to fully use his spirit/demon energy. 

Powers/Abilities ~ Findorr
What makes Findorr an impressive Arrancar is his ability to literally "Stoop at one's level." When first introduced, he summoned various hollows by making a whistling like sound. However, his true ability lies in his mask - an inhibitor that allows his power to flourish when Findorr breaks of segments of his mask (called Afinar). He becomes stronger when he breaking bits and piece of his mask and when fully revealing his face, he's fighting at a Captain-Class level and above. Aside from this, he is capable of firing Cero (which is colored Indigo than Red), firing multiple bala, has enhanced Sonido & Hierro, and is an exert swordsman in conjunction to his Afinar (Face-Carving/Sculpting) ability. When releasing his Ressurrecion, his power is amplifier and, with his claws, he can fire a water current capable of destroying solid objects and can also fire water jets that envelop his opponents. 

Fight Record ~ Gama
Gama has only 1 fight and doesn't have a pivotal role in YYH. His record is as follows:

Gama vs. Kurama - Loss 

Fight Record ~ Findorr 
Findorr has only 1 fight and doesn't have a pivotal role in Bleach. His record is as follows:

Findorr vs. Hisagi - Loss 

Verdict
And the winner is..
Despite both Gama & Findorr having unique abilities, I think Findorr is more favorable because of his Afinar ability. Don't get me wrong, I think Gama's abilities are one of a kind, but all it did was 2 things - amplify his powers & create restraints. Other than that, he offered very little to Kurama as he was able to mop the floor with Gama easily. With Findorr, he progressively got stronger and even managed to trick Hisagi into thinking he was weak. Findorr's inhibitor allows him to restrain his powers, but when fully unmasked - he is a sight to behold. He fought at a Captain-class or higher, but unfortunately would fall victim to Hisagi's Zanpaktou. However, Findorr's Afinar abilities are more interesting that Gama's War Paint - it offered room for improvement on Findorr's part. Gama didn't much for me and that is why this victory goes to Findorr.
