Kenpachi Zaraki
更木剣八
The Eleventh Division captain, who lives only for battle. He wears an eyepatch that drains his spiritual pressure and bells in his hair so opponents can find him: all to make the fight more fun.
He knows neither Kidō nor the name of his own sword, and fights with brute strength alone. He unconsciously sealed his own power after his first clash with Unohana, so as never again to lose the one opponent who had entertained him. In the Quincy war Unohana frees him from that seal by killing and healing him in Muken: for the first time Kenpachi hears Nozarashi's voice.
