Or rather, the first two kanji together mean 'destruction' and the third indicates a person doing it, albiet an apparently respected or revered person. Anaraug 16:04, 2 February 2006 (UTC) Litterally, the three kanji used for 'kuinshi' mean 'destroy/ruin', 'instead/rather', and 'teacher/master'. (I've only read the manga recently, I'm not sure about inclusion in the anime.) I'm under the assumption that the Quincy are somehow derived from religious figures in some way, but that's just a guess, I hope more Quincy material comes up in the rest of the series.

I think that that symbol is what the article was referring to as a 'pentacle', which it appears similar to. AngelusInsomnus 15:23, 1 February 2006 (UTC) Ah, that makes sense. The 'quintus' might be associated with the rare five-pointed symbol we occasionally see. Any thoughts? - Anaraug 11:51, 30 January 2006 (UTC) It's possible that would be the meaning behind the kanji, but I'm fairly certain its pronunciation is in fact the English word Quincy (derived from Latin 'quintus', meaning five), much like how Arrancars' zanpakuto have kanji, but are pronounced with Spanish names.

I'm not sure how to include this though, as I can't really verify it since I don't know Japanese. Exorcist would certainly go along with the crosses, etc. I've seen fansubs and scanlations that translate Quincy as both Destroyer and Exorcist.
