Tousen, Kaname
東仙 要
In his role as Captain of the 9th Division, which oversees the editing of Seireitei Communication, Tousen acted as the journal's chief editor. He authored a serialized column titled "The Path of Justice," which initially lacked popularity. However, the articles gained traction among female Shinigami after he began including cooking recipes. This shift suggests that cooking is indeed his specialty, with chicken stewed with carrots and other refined dishes being his favorites. He dislikes pickled food.
Tousen also maintains several distinct relationships with the Arrancars. He views Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez in the same light as Kenpachi Zaraki: a killing machine destined to cause further bloodshed in the world. Wonderweiss Margera appears to hold a strong affection for him. Tousen attributes this to the fact that they are both pure spirits, noting that such spirits tend to attract and follow one another.
Spoiler
He was revealed as a co-conspirator working for Sousuke Aizen and left Soul Society along with him and Gin Ichimaru. He then became a Commander in Aizen's Army of Arrancar. The Soul Society ordeal put him at odds with his formerly closest friend Sajin Komamura, as well as his former Lieutenant in the 9th Division, Shuuhei Hisagi.
Tousen's creed in life is to "take the path with the least bloodshed"; it was for this reason that he felt it necessary to follow Sousuke Aizen. Despite this, he knows of Aizen's plan to create the King's Key, which will require the deaths of thousands of innocent people. He was also willing to attack and kill members of his own division while acting as the 5th seat, including Hollowfying his own captain. Tousen, along with Gin Ichimaru was identified by Kenpachi Zaraki as being afraid of death, this is later confirmed with him saying he only feared being assimilated into the Shinigami culture and dying a pointless death. His own description of himself as a "pure being" when explaining why Wonderweiss Margela likes him shows degrees of pride and arrogance as well. Also, despite stating many times how much his friend loved the world, he himself never said so, and in fact hated the world that took away his friend.
