Suzuki vs. Charlotte Chuhlhourne (The "Beautiful" People)

VS.

Oh boy, where do I begin with this one? These two, in my opinion, are a perfect pair when it comes to personality. Self-proclaiming as being Beautiful, they thrive on that idea in order to win against their foes, but it backfires. These two don't have much of a pivotal role, but you can say that their ideology is on mark - the self-proclamation of being Beautiful in battle. Today is a matchup between YYH's Suzuki & Bleach's Charlotte Chuhlhourne. I will be comparing the following: Role in Story, Powers/Abilities, & Fight Record

Role in Story ~ Suzuki
Prior to being in the Dark Tournament, Suzuki fought against Tounger Toguro in the past, was easily defeated, and was sparred for being pointless to kill. It wouldn't be until later where Suzuk became the de facto leader of Team Uraotogi and the one responsible for creating the items used by his team (EX: Shishiwakamaru's Banshee Shriek & Cape of No Return). Suzuki, in the earlier rounds, disguised himself as an old man by the name of Onji. However, Genkai saw through this ruse and Onji revealed himself to be the "Beautiful" Suzuki. Having a clownish appearance, he is a Fighting Narcissist, but is prone to being defeated easily. He heavily relies on techniques and innovations in his items to overcome the odds, but this proved to be pointless when Genkai pummeled him. Suzuki, before the final match between Team Urameshi & Team Toguro handed Kurama & Kuwabara his own items - hoping it'll be essential to delivering devastating blows against Team Toguro. Later on in the Three-Kings Saga, he wants to redeem himself by training relentlessly under the tutelage of Genkai & Kurama to participate in the Demon Tournament. He won in the preliminaries, but, according to Toya, was no match in the actual tournament. He remains a ally of Team Urameshi alongside Chu, Rinku, Toya, Jin, & Shishiwakamaru. 

Role in Story ~ Charlotte 
Charlotte is introduced as a Fraccion under King Baraggan's tutelage alongside Findorr, Abirama, Poww, Ggio, & Nirgge. As Ikkaku, Yumichika, Kira, and Hisagi protected the 4 pillars from revealing the real Karakura Town, Yumichika had the unfortunate luck to come across Charlotte - a self-proclaimed beauty that believes true beauty derives from personality and heart. Yumichika, completely disagreeing with Charlotte, eventually becomes his doe and the two fight. Though Yumichika thought he was a comic relief Fraccion, it turns out that Charlotte wasn't just all talk. He bit back and proved to be a match against Yumichika, even going so further as to release Yumichika's true Zanpaktou in front of Charlotte. Charlotte was amazed by Yumichika's true colors and, despite releasing his Resurreccion, was drained of his Reiatsu and left for dead. 

Powers/Abilities ~ Suzuki
Suzuki lacks physical strength, but what he makes up for it with his items. His items are not only innovative, but come in handy when it comes to facing opponents. An example is Suzuki's Dimensional Travel Sphere, a sphere that envelops anyone and transports them elsewhere. This was how he won against Kuwabara and how Shishiwakamaru won against him as well. Suzuki's demon energy is made up of the color of the rainbow - hence called Rainbow Cyclone. It only amplified his power, but after training with Genkai - this ability became reminiscent of Yusuke's shotgun attack. Lastly, he can amplify his muscles just by channeling his demon energy, but wasn't enough for Younger Toguro or Genkai, 

Powers/Abilities ~ Charlotte
Charlotte has a way of saying aloud his techniques and, to be honest, I'm not going to go out of my way to type it out. I'm just going to say that he can fire Cero & can slash downwards & horizontal to a point where it can send his opponent crashing. He has enhanced strength and is a decent swordsman, standing on par with Yumichika when exchanging blows. In his Ressurrecion, his strength, hierro, and Sonido are amplified and his attack, Rose Blanca (White Rose Punishment) allows him to envelop an opponent in a thick and dark bush that conceals a person's spiritual energy. His abilities of an Arrancar are sub-par, but it wasn't enough for him to defeat Yumichika and his Zanpaktou's true abilities. 

Suzuki's Fight Record
Suzuki has had a few fights in the Dark Tournament & Three-Kings Saga. His record is as follows:

Suzuki vs. Younger Toguro (past) - Loss
Suzuki (in disguise) w/Team Uraotogi vs. Team Gokai Six - Victory
Suzuki vs. Genkai - Loss
Suzuki vs. Demons in Preliminaries of Demon Tournament - Victory
Suzuki vs. Demons in Tournament - Loss 

Charlotte's Fight Record
Charlotte was introduced during the war between the Gotei 13 & Aizen's forces. He's had 1 fight. His record is as follows:

Charlotte vs. Yumichika - Loss

Verdict
And the winner is...
Despite not really being a big fan of these two, I compared them strictly on the basis that they emphasize that they're beautiful. Personally, they're egotistical people and secondly, they didn't really offer much in terms of anything. They were minor villains that easily lost to their opponents. However, if I were to give this one a victory, I would have to give it to Charlotte because he offered a little more than Suzuki, was able to deliver some blows to his opponent, and stood on par against his opponent until he showed off his true colors. Despite having an eccentric personality and making long ass names for his attacks, he still showcases that he's not just all talk - he can truly bite back. I didn't see that with Suzuki at all. He got his ass handed to him in the past and in the present - what did he learn? Even when training and being at a S-class level, it wasn't enough. With Charlotte, he at least inflicted damage on his opponents where Suzuki thrived on his items for victory. Charlotte relied on everything he can - his sword, his enhanced durability, and his swordsmanship. This victory, hands down, goes to Charlotte.
