Rangiku Matsumoto is a lieutenant of the 10th Division of the Gotei 13, serving under Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya. She is known for her striking appearance, love of drinking, and seemingly carefree nature, yet behind this lies a devoted officer and experienced tactician. Her past is closely tied to Gin Ichimaru, who saved her from starvation in childhood, and whose betrayal left a deep mark on her soul. Despite her laziness and dislike of paperwork, Rangiku has proven her combat worth time and again, especially in battles against the Arrancars and the Wandenreich. She was also elected president of the Shinigami Women's Association after Retsu Unohana.
