Position: Lieutenant of the 5th Division, Gotei 13 Height: 151 cm Weight: 39 kg Birthday: June 3rd Zanpakuto: Tobiume Release Command: Snap, Tobiume Likes: Peaches Dislikes: Plums Hobbies: Reading Specialty: Drawing How she spends holidays: Visiting her grandmother in Rukongai, reading at the library A petite and lovely girl who serves as the Lieutenant of the 5th Division despite her youthful appearance. First person: I (feminine, polite) Originally from Junrinan, the 1st District of West Rukongai. She is childhood friends with Toshiro Hitsugaya, the Captain of the 10th Division, whom she has known since their time in Rukongai and affectionately calls "Shiro-chan." Before entering the Academy, she lived with Hitsugaya and their grandmother. She had friends there as well. She was in the same class at the Shin'o Academy as Izuru Kira and Renji Abarai, and they were all juniors to Shuhei Hisagi. Her reason for entering the Academy is unknown, but after Sosuke Aizen saved her life during her first year, she aimed to join the 5th Division. According to Hitsugaya, she worked herself to the bone out of a desire to be useful to Aizen, finally achieving the rank of Lieutenant. Initially, she seemed timid and prone to tears, but she is naturally cheerful, bright, and earnest. While she used to be very expressive, she became haggard after the incident with Aizen, often showing a reserved and somber expression. Her specialty is drawing; she is actually quite skilled and handles the illustrations for the Seireitei Communication. Her hobby is reading. She started liking it after borrowing books that Aizen had finished reading. She is reading buddies with Nanao Ise. They recommend interesting books to each other and talk passionately about specific titles. She has many feminine hobbies, such as participating in the 4th Division's flower arrangement classes, and spends her days off at her grandmother's house or the library. Additionally, she is excellent at paperwork, earning her the nickname "The Tiger of Paperwork." Appearance: Her lovely looks make her popular among members of other divisions. In the main story, there are even Soul Reapers who joined the Gotei 13 because they admired her. She has black hair, brown eyes, and slightly thick eyebrows, and wears her hair in a bun (chignon). In the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, she cuts her hair short above her shoulders, changes her parting, and wears a hair clip. Throughout the series, she changes her hairstyle significantly depending on the arc, including pigtails, a long ponytail, a bun, and short hair, as well as updos for formal Japanese attire. Her hair ornament is a white cloth with a purple ribbon. Abilities: She is highly skilled in Kido, using unique arrangements to bewilder opponents by combining multiple spells or layering them with her Zanpakuto's abilities. Hitsugaya calls her a "Kido Master." While not on the level of the 4th Division, she can perform Kaido (healing Kido) for serious injuries. Due to her innate kindness, she dislikes conflict and sometimes struggles to be cold-blooded. In the Thousand-Year Blood War arc, she was even seen recoiling when Byakuya relentlessly attacked Gerard, thinking, "He didn't have to go that far..." Zanpakuto: Shikai: Tobiume (Flying Plum Tree). Release command: "Snap." Upon release, the blade transforms into a shape resembling a Shichishito (seven-branched sword). Tobiume's basic ability is to launch powerful fireballs (large flame projectiles) from the blade. • By swinging the sword, she instantly fires high-heat spiritual bullets at her target. • Upon impact, they explode violently, setting the surroundings ablaze. Tobiume is most terrifying when combined with Momo Hinamori's own exceptional talent for Kido. She uses it as a catalyst to amplify and freely manipulate Kido spells. Personality: Pure, earnest, and a kindness that is "too devoted." • Cheerful and Innocent: Basically a bright, serious, and kind-hearted person who treats everyone with gentleness. She has a pacifist side and dislikes conflict. • Absolute Admiration and Dependence: She held a blind, absolute trust in the former 5th Division Captain, Sosuke Aizen, who once saved her life—a feeling that went beyond mere respect. Because of this, she was the one most toyed with by Aizen's betrayal and schemes, and is strongly depicted as a "tragic heroine" suffering from deep psychological trauma. • Inner Strength and Responsibility: Contrary to the initial impression of being weak and quick to cry, she is fundamentally a hard worker. Even after experiencing a cruel betrayal, she possesses a strong sense of responsibility to fulfill her duties as Lieutenant. Appearance: A lovely girl who retains a sense of innocence. • Petite Build: Very small and slender, standing 151 cm and weighing 39 kg. • Hairstyle and Features: Her trademark is her black (or dark) hair tied in a bun at the back and wrapped in a white cloth (hair ornament). She has an innocent, lovely, and gentle face. • Clothing: She basically wears the standard Shihakusho (Soul Reaper uniform) and wears the 5th Division Lieutenant's armband on her left arm. Characteristics: A "Kido Genius" with high potential. • Kido Master: While she lacks power in close-quarters physical combat, she has tremendous talent for "Kido," the art of the Soul Reapers. She is a tactical fighter who develops and constructs her own original Kido, such as "Net Kido" which combines multiple spells. • Zanpakuto "Tobiume": The release command is "Snap, Tobiume." When released, it has "Fire-type" abilities, allowing her to fire fireballs (spiritual bullets using Kido) from the blade. • Bond with Toshiro Hitsugaya: She is childhood friends with 10th Division Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya from Junrinan in West Rukongai. Even now that he has become a Captain, she still calls him "Shiro-chan" and dotes on him like an older sister. Versatile Hobbies: Her hobby is reading, and she is reading buddies with 8th Division Lieutenant Nanao Ise. She is also very good at drawing, and in fanbooks, she is shown handling illustrations for the "Seireitei Communication" in a shojo-manga style. Speech Style: Friendly and soft-spoken. First person: I (feminine, polite). Basically, she speaks to everyone in a polite, soft, and feminine tone. • Toward Aizen: She calls him "Captain Aizen," speaking in formal language from a respectful distance, filled with heartfelt admiration. • Toward Hitsugaya: If no one else is around, she calls him "Shiro-chan," using a frank tone like a meddlesome older sister. • Toward Colleagues/Friends: She treats her peers like Renji Abarai and Izuru Kira with casual, friendly, and warm familiarity.
