Race: Shinigami Height: 202 cm 67 Rank: Captain of the 11th Division Relatives: Yachiru Kusajishihttps://anilist.co/character/910/YachiruKusajishi adoptive daughter Zarakis first name comes from the district he once resided in Zaraki which is district 80 of the North Alley of Rukongai. District 80 is the worst most lawless region of Rukongai full of thieves and murderers whereas area 1 is the most orderly and lawabiding. While residing in District 80 Kenpachi was nameless. During that time he became proficient in swordsmanship and killed numerous enemies. At some point during his travels outside of District 80 he found a small girl and named her Yachiru in remembrance of the only person he ever admired after she showed no fear of his sword. Yachiru came from area 79 Kusajishi where her parents were murdered. The two events were apparently quite close. On that day he also took on a name: Kenpachi the title bestowed upon the strongest swordsman the one who has killed the most. The two developed a fatherdaughterlike relationship. Also at some point before he became a Captain he fought and defeated Ikkaku Madarame for this reason Ikkaku pledged to serve under Kenpachi from there on out Ikkaku doesnt actually get the chance to do so until he joins the 11th Division but Ikkaku would still jump at the chance to fight Kenpachi to the death. After some time had passed Kenpachi found his way to the Seireitei. He defeated and killed the previous Captain of the 11th Division whose identity is currently unknown and gained his seat in the Gotei 13 in this manner. In the anime his assumption of the Captains seat caused Maki Ichinose to leave the Soul Society. According to the anime it is also what convinced Ikkaku and Yumichika to join the Shinigami.
