No. But they are similar to the Third Reich.

- "Wandenreich"...yeah pretty much nothing needed.
- Having primordial fear towards Hollows. Where have I heard this before?
- Their designs themselves should be obvious. (Völlstandig wings, uniforms, and all that)
- German motifs

I would add that in latest chapter we got real name of Elite group and it's Schutzstaffel. Third Reich elite army had same name.

Woah, I never picked up on any of that. Isn't basing the Quincy on murderous, child killing, torturing, mass murdering, genocidal, sad excuses for living creatures...a little tasteless, especially in a manga where a villain is never truly a villain

Thought this was obvious simply because of their uniforms plus let's take a look at their names and some of their abilities. Yhwach is a German name Vanderiech sounds German as well Plus Bazz B where is mostif just like the Nazi soldiers did.

their german. all other evidence is unnecicary, as it is so blindingly obvious.
German does not = Nazi

I don't know why Kubo would use Nazi references, hasn't his manga sunk low enough, the Quincy are not even portrayed as evil enough for such a basis, my opinion of him has lowered yet again, its not a subject to be treated so trivially, has he never read a history book or did he just gloss over the bad parts, the fact that Ichigo's sword also has a swastika hilt, makes me worry as to what he is alluding to.

Unless he was alluding to Ichigo's connection to the Quincy back then, I hope not, I wouldn't like to think that much thought went into his current half arsed plot as that would be pretty pathetic as the best he can do

I posted a detailed analysis on this. The whole manga is a mix of religion and world war 2 refs. :hint:

Countless Germans died at the hands of the Nazi's in horrible, horrible ways, basing a manga villain on them that can illicit sympathy and fandom is very naive. Its also a stereotype of Germans and a trivialization not to mention unimaginative and clichéd
