2nd Division Pages from Bleach 13 BLADEs (And my quick translation of some parts!)
‘A continual admirer of Yoruichi, head of the Onmitsukidou force’
(気質 - This section describes Sui-Feng’s personality, etc.)
(躍動 -This section describes Sui-Feng’s strength, movement, etc.)
Omaeda: Captain Sui-Feng? Hm…The number of cat goods purchases she makes is getting more ridiculous every year. Wait, she’d never buy them with my money, right? No way…
Kiyone: You have my deepest thanks! The photographs* we took of Captain Ukitake that time are my treasures! If you ever could possibility take more, please do it!!
Tatsufusa Enjouji: Whooooooa! Captain Sui-Feng? My dear, m’lady! Captain Sui-Feng……please hit me.
Yoruichi: You’re still inexperienced! You won’t catch up to me at this rate. Yeah that’s right, I still have those photographs* from when you tried to fool me!
(*These comments make reference to the Colourful Bleach pages, where the Shinigami Women’s Association tried to take pictures of all the Captains)
‘With a good physique and total superiority, the rich eldest son’
The small inset picture is of Omaeda’s father, Marenoshin, 100 years ago from the Turn Back the Pendulum arc.
Sui-Feng: Hm, I honestly don’t have anything to say about him, but I guess he’s useful now and then. But his rudeness towards Yoruichi-sama is unforgivable!
Shuuhei: I’ve been to his mansion a couple of times, but it’s wild, all of it’s so extravagant! Also his family is weird…
‘Expelled from Soul Society, the former 2nd Division Captain’
The small inset picture is of Yoruichi’s little brother, Yuushirou. His details (DOB, height weight) are unknown.
Sui-Feng: Yoruichi-sama? This lady’s beauty, her elegance, hold no meaning for you? Fool! People these days…
Byakuya: The demon cat? She isn’t a part of the the Gotei 13 anymore. Thus I can’t say anything…The past? Nothing to say.
This page covers general information on the sections and functions of the Onmitsukidou. It also talks about the different prisons in Soul Society.
This page covers general info for Sui-Feng and Omaeda during the Blood War arc. For Sui-Feng it’s losing her bankai, training, etc. For Omaeda, it was saving his little sister.
At the bottom of the page it reads, 変わらぬ人事. It essentially talks about a problem a character has faced in the arc, or something that has changed about them or what they’ve done. For Sui-Feng it was managing without her bankai, and for Omaeda it was helping his Captain.
