It is arrancar. Arrancar means to take off by force (in spanish). The Arrancar "took of" their masks. This idea came to me while reading your post and also watching "That's 70 show".

FYI that medal that chado has, is an old model of the national flag of Mexico. My guess is that chad's grandfather fighted on the war of 1910 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
