Wabisuke

Izuru Kira's Zanpakuto.

Wabisuke's spirit takes the form of an emaciated, shirtless man. He carries a large metal ball on his left shoulder and Izuru's Shikai in his right hand. His pants resemble those of a Shinigami's shihakushō but tied with chains instead of an obi. He is always seen with his head bowed down, letting his hair completely cover his face. The spirit also has a large stone tablet chained to his body that seems to weigh him down; this is reflective of Wabisuke's abilities of doubling the weight of those struck by his blade.

Lisa Yadoumaru

Lisa Yadōmaru was the former lieutenant of the 8th Division under Captain Shunsui Kyoraku. She is a girl with glasses and long, braided, dark hair, who dresses in a sailor fuku, as opposed to the more Western-style uniforms worn by the students of Karakura High School. In consistency with her current appearance, her Soul Reaper uniform during her time in the Gotei 13 had a shortened hakama resembling a skirt. She seems easily irritated and apparently likes to read erotic manga (specifically, Josei manga). She is also very curious, and would spy on the captain's meetings during her time in Soul Society. Her zanpakutō is considerably longer than most, making it appear like a nōdachi. She appears to be ambidextrous, initially wielding her zanpakutō with her left hand and then switching to her right during her fight with Ichigo.

Birthday: April 1

Zanpakutou: Hisagomaru

Hanatarou is very timid and nervous. His black hair is a bit long and his bangs frame his face. He tends to be clumsy and easily duped. Hanatarou's kind nature and nervousness results him becoming the victim of many bullies and practical jokes. While Hanatarou looks like a wimp, he shows on more than one occasion he is courageous and dedicated to what he believes in.

His zanpakuto has the odd ability to heal instead of injure anything it cuts. The accumulation of damage absorbed by his zanpakuto manifests as a red meter running along the length of his sword. When the meter reaches full, his zanpakuto releases all the damage it has absorbed as a destructive beam that is powerful enough to kill even a menos grande, after which his sword shrinks into a scalpel.
