Gin Ichimaru

Height: 185 cm 61 Rank: Previous Position: Zanpakuto: Shinso Gin is fairly ordinary in terms of clothing aside from the inside of his captains cloak being a lime green color and doesnt wear any unique items. His overall appearance however is not as normal: his eyes are constantly slitted he is unusually thin and he bears unusual silver hair which has a purple tint to it in the anime. He also keeps a wide smile most of the time which he has only been known to wipe off on rare occasions. He has also been known to open his eyes only three times the first time was in a flashback when he and Aizen rescued Momo Hinamori and other students from hollows. The second time was during a battle with 10th Division Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya and the final time being during his fight with Ichigo Kurosaki As Gin doesnt display any emotion while speaking combined with his use of sarcasm he is distrusted by many most notably Toshiro Hitsugaya and Rukia Kuchiki. Rukia once commented on how she felt like snakes were wrapping around her neck whenever Gin spoke. Kaname Tousen notes that Gin has a similar effect on just about everyone when explaining Wonderwice Margeras frightened reaction to Gin. In the anime Gin speaks with a distinct Kyoto dialect which is indirect and polite. His English dubbed voice is also formal and polite but with a rather mocking and facetious undertone. Gin is often nicknamed Kitsune FoxFaced from Ichigo. History: Not much is known about Gins prior history except that he once saved 10th Division Lieutenant Rangiku Matsumotos life. They have been friends since then. Hence Matsumoto is one of the few people Gin seems to truly care about. It is also known that Gin served as the lieutenant of 5th Division Captain Sosuke Aizen before becoming captain of the 3rd Division and that he became captain at the same time as Byakuya Kuchiki.
