The ever-present smile that clings on the face is the impression everyone have of Captain Ichimaru. Even with his mild mannerisms, he does not reveal his true intentions making the atmosphere uncomfortable even if he approaches slightly. How to put it... it's just scary.

Dried persimmon has always been his favourite food since childhood. There are persimmon trees in the 3rd division quarters which Gin actually grows himself.

The only division in the battle-based Gotei 13 squads that specialises in healing and reinforcement and this is the 4th division. Positioned at the rear, the 4th division is in charge of rescuing and healing injured squad members.

With polite mannerisms, she could verbally knock down even the most rustic people who do not listen to words. The mismatch with the mild impression she presents to others is her speciality in swordfighting.

Special Information (Top Secret)
During her off-duty days, she would climb the mountains located in the various zones in Rukongai. As she has been spotted flying on Minazuki by eye witnesses on several occasions, whether she climbed the mountains on her own or not, is a mystery.

Yachiru also participates in these sessions however, she only eats the snacks given out during breaktimes and after which, she returns to her squad.

Character description
Captain Kuchiki is the model person for all Shinigami, thus under his command, the severity of the regulations within the 6th division is well known....however, the frankness and magnamity of the vice-captain seem to act as a counter-balance in the division.

Special Information (Top Secret)
The Kuchiki House is built on such a large area that, there is even a stream that flows in front of Byakuya's personal room, specially for him. Right at the entrance of the House, there is a pond with pedigree carps that are cared for over the generations. The carps are three times larger than normal carps, with shiny golden scales and are very rare. Lately, the number of carps are dwindling, from ten carps to four. Amongst the servants, they dub this phenomenon as the "mystery of the Kuchiki household". In actual fact, they were secretly stolen by Yachiru during the night and she presented them to Ukitake as get-well gifts, and releasing them into the pond at Ugendou (Ukitake's place). She humoured Ukitake saying, "Lately, the number of big carps has increased!!"

Boasting an enormous physical stature, Captain Komamura
could use physical strength to hold down his opponents. A power fighter who fights openly without resorting to petty tricks.

Character description
Captain Komamura Sajin is a firm believer of loyalty. The characteristic of his division is the tendency to attract sincere, vigorous and stout fellows into their ranks.

Special Information (Top Secret)
He might look like a dog but in fact he's a wolf. He likes mixed breed dogs and kept a dog named Goro in the division quarters.

Character description
As a favourite disciple of Genryuusai, Captain Kyouraku followed his teacher's orders and took command of the 8th division. However, the true authority in the division probably lies in the hands of the vice-captain...

Judging from his words, actions and his eccentricity, Captain Kyouraku appears to be undignified. However, his quick-witted nature earns him the comment, "superficial at a glance, but bears deep thoughts".

Special Information (Top Secret)
The romance novel, "Rose-coloured Path" that was published in the Seireitei Communication was penned by him but it was unpopular to the point that he received neither fan letters, nor birthday presents. However, his photograph collection named, "Using Arms as My Pillow" had an unexplainable sold-out popularity. According to him, "My little kittens are shy creatures", hence he did not notice that the serialization's ranking is amongst the lowest. Incidentally, the first edition of "Using Arms as My Pillow" had lesser copies printed as compared to photograph collections by other captains, and as to why it was not reprinted now, he probably doesn't know too.

Due to perspiration, it is a must for him to take a bath before turning in to sleep. Hence, he washes his hair everyday. As he often washes his hair with soap, his hair becomes stiff.

On the following day, his hair became silky and no matter how hard he tried to set it, the spikes could not stand up and it was a bitter experience. Currently, he would use only soap.
