Second Division (Seireitou)

The Second Division (二番隊, Nibantai) is one of the Gotei 13 Divisions.

Special Duties
No special duties have been noted for the Second Division. Because the Captain of the Second Division also leads the Onmitsukidō, their duties are directly tied in with the Onmitsukidō, each of the top 5 seated officers is in charge of a certain division of the Special Forces. At this time, it is known that the Captain is in charge of the Executive Militia, the Lieutenant is in charge of the Patrol Unit, and the 3rd Seat is in charge of the Detention Unit.

Barracks
Like all the other barracks, the 2nd Division Barracks house the offices and living quarters of the Shinigami of the 2nd. The buildings are amazingly luxurious due to Lieutenant Ōmaeda reconstructing offices using his private fortunes. The offices are said to boast automatic doors and heated floors. The barracks even have a hot spring. The division grounds also holds the Ujimushi no Su (蛆虫の巣, literally "Nest of Maggots"). Inside the divisions barracks, the Shihōin family crest is embossed into the wall of the audience chamber.
