'''Yachiru Kusajishi (Kusajishi Yachiru)''' Lieutenant of the 11th Division, under Captain [[Kenpachi Zaraki]].

{{translation|Momo Hinamori|雛森 桃|Hinamori Momo}} is the lieutenant of the 5th Division, formerly under [[Sōsuke Aizen]].

==Personality==
==Character Outline==
 
Yachiru is child-like in most aspects, as she is small, cheerful, energetic, and carefree most of the time. She is often seen latched onto the back of her captain, [[Kenpachi Zaraki]], just over his left shoulder, and is somewhat territorial about this position. She is surprisingly intimidating at times, especially when annoyed. Like Kenpachi, she has no sense of direction, even though he relies on her for directions. Yachiru resents being criticized in any way and will often attack the perpetrator. Further reflecting her child-like nature, Yachiru likes to give people nicknames. The anime suggests that Kenpachi simply walked in and killed the former 11th Division captain, thus becoming the current one, so it stands to reason she became a shinigami at the same time. In an interview, Tite Kubo mentioned that he plans on revealing Yachiru's namesake.
 
   
  +
Hinamori is an upbeat and easy-going girl who is generally quite trusting, but also very impulsive, emotionally vulnerable, and naïve. She greatly admires her former captain, Sōsuke Aizen, to the point where she refuses to believe that Aizen intentionally betrayed the [[Soul Society]] even though he stabbed her.
In golden cup 172, she appears to have dug secret tunnels through the Kuchiki house, she was searching for Ichigo, "Icchi", to show them to him. The tunnels are shown when Lieutenant Isane Kotetsu and Nemu Kurotsuchi try to take a photograph of Byakuya.

==Appearance==
Yachiru is first seen directing Zaraki through the Seireitei (albeit badly). She then becomes quite fond of Ichigo and his friends after Ichigo defeats Zaraki. She leads Ganju Shiba, [[Chad]], [[Orihime]], and Uryu Ishida to where Rukia is being executed. Later when Zaraki enters Hueco Mundo, she follows him and stands back while he fights [[Nnoitra Jiruga]].

Hinamori grew up in Junrinan, District 1 of [[Soul Society#Rukongai|Rukongai]], along with [[Tōshirō Hitsugaya]].

The two have a close friendship, reflected by Hinamori giving him the nickname Shiro-chan (little Shiro in the English dub)although Hinamori is older and toushiro is younger it gives him the best reason to protect her even more the two are very close and will protect each other as a promise they made to each other. When Hinamori entered the shinigami academy, she excelled at kidō. It was there that she met Kira and Renji, who soon became her friends and, later, her fellow lieutenants. They were placed in the 5th Division of the Gotei 13 under Captain Aizen and his lieutenant, [[Gin Ichimaru]]. While Kira and Renji would later leave to other Divisions, Hinamori remained in the 5th Division and became the division's lieutenant (through much hard work as noted by Hitsugaya).

The name and ability of Yachiru's zanpakutō are both unknown. She carries her zanpakutō around with a loose cord, rather than at the sash of her uniform. Her zanpakutō's scabbard is also unusual in that it has a pair of wheels for transport. According to Yachiru's profile in volume 13, these were installed by Ikkaku, who turns out to be handy with tools, after she continually pestered him to do it. It also has a child-like flower pattern on the crossguard.

Personality

Hinamori is an upbeat and easy-going girl who is generally quite trusting, but also very impulsive, emotionally vulnerable, and naïve. She greatly admires her former captain, Sōsuke Aizen, to the point where she refuses to believe that Aizen intentionally betrayed the Soul Society even though he stabbed her.

Appearance

Her appearance is fairly ordinary compared to other shinigami in Soul Society. She wears her hair up in a bun with a cloth wrapped around it and tied with a ribbon.

History

Hinamori grew up in Junrinan, District 1 of Rukongai, along with Tōshirō Hitsugaya. While Hitsugaya tended to be a bit of a brat as a child, Hinamori found him amusing and treated him like a younger brother. The two have a close friendship, reflected by Hinamori giving him the nickname Shiro-chan (little Shiro in the English dub)although Hinamori is older and toushiro is younger it gives him the best reason to protect her even more the two are very close and will protect each other as a promise they made to each other. When Hinamori entered the shinigami academy, she excelled at kidō. It was there that she met Kira and Renji, who soon became her friends and, later, her fellow lieutenants. They were placed in the 5th Division of the Gotei 13 under Captain Aizen and his lieutenant, Gin Ichimaru. While Kira and Renji would later leave to other Divisions, Hinamori remained in the 5th Division and became the division's lieutenant (through much hard work as noted by Hitsugaya).

Shinigami Powers

Momo, unlike Renji and Kira, excelled at kidō.

Zanpakutō

Hinamori's zanpakutō is Tobiume (飛梅, flying plum tree).

  • Shikai: The command for its shikai is snap (弾け, hajike) In the English dub, she also adds the word "deflect," though she does it after announcing the full command phrase. When its shikai is activated, Tobiume's blade straightens and produces several jitte-like prongs along its length.
Shikai Special Ability: In this form, Tobiume acts as a focus for Hinamori's spiritual power, concentrating it into energy bursts capable of cratering floors and breaching walls. Hinamori can also compress her power into massive energy balls and toss them from the blade's tip.
