~ Kirio Hikifune |
Kirio Hikifune is a major character from the manga/anime series, Bleach. She is a member of the Royal Guard, holding the title "Ruler of Grain" and holds the position of Second Officer of the Zero Division, as well as "Divine General of the South". Prior to this, she was the captain of the 12th Division in the Gotei 13, before being replaced by Kisuke Urahara
She is voiced by Ayumi Tsunematsu in the Japanese version of the anime, and by Tara Sands in the English version.
Appearance[]
Kirio Hikifune is a rather tall woman with long pink hair and green eyes. She has black lipstick and red swirl markings under her eyes. He wears a standard Shihakushō Shinigami with a white obi under a long-sleeved white haori, decorated with the Royal Guard emblem on the back.
After returning to Soul Society, Kirio's appearance has changed beyond recognition, becoming much plumper and massive, with her eyes closed (most of the time). When she finishes cooking, she returns to her original, slender and strongly rounded form.
Personality[]
Kirio Hikifune is a very optimistic and cheerful person, even when she hits or scolds others for minor insults, such as when she hit Shinji Hirako on the back of the head for not recognizing her. However, despite her optimism, Kirio can be very serious when the situation requires it, as seen when she warned Ichigo and Renji about Ōetsu Nimaiya, as he is the most unpredictable of the Royal Guard. Apart from that, Kirio Hikifune seemed to be a real mother figure to Hiyori Sarugaki.
In battle, she is very confident in her abilities, boldly telling the Schutzstaffel that no matter what they do, they cannot escape the Tree of Life that she has grown.
Trivia[]
- When she was first seen, her shihakushō was colored white instead of black.
