Gotei 13's Sixth Division and the head of the lesser noble clan, The Agehas. She has one of the most beautiful Zanpakutos in the Gotei 13. Akumi is also the member of Shinigami Women's Association (Fanon).

Appearance
Akumi is a woman of her late teen years, and is the an example of good health and wellbeing among her shinigami comrades.Akumi keeps herself fit and rejuvenated with a variety of exercises and diet plans that work well for her. Her fair skin illuminates her facial structure and sharp features, along with light blue eyes only accentuating the look she possesses. She has got a curvaceous figure and a noticeable bust. Her hair, which is pink, is long and is kept open, except for in battle, where she ties it up. Akumi's shikahusho is noticeably different from other shingami just like Shizuka Enyou. It is off-shoulder and is tied with with two strings to Akumi's choker. It is split down from the middle of her legs. Under this, she wears a  'short pant' which leaves her legs exposed from the thigh to the area where her tatoo finishes. When Akumi uses her shikai, her shikahusho changes.

Personality
In contrast to her name, Akumi is shy girl who will over-apologize for even the tiniest of things. She is also very mature and takes her responsibilities as a shingami very seriously. She's somewhat timid when it comes to things and people but friendly otherwise. Once she has made a friend, no matter what they think of her later she will hold them closely. Akumi has a tendency to go from being confident to scared whenever something bad happens. This is likely because she saw her mother being murdered in front of her when she was a kid. She is supposedly very popular among the shinigami men as her sister says how Akumi was always turning down boys for dates. She also has a tendency to be over-protective about her sister.

Overall, she doesn't seem to hate anyone but seems to harbor a disrespect for Rangiku Matsumoto for her because of her talking about her big breasts openly.

Akumi has a great love for books. It has been shown that two walls of her room are filled with books. She likes poetry the most, often trying to write it but in vain. She is also fond of drawing and painting, her ability of which is shown in a sketch of her sister that hangs above her bed. She also has a love of the lavender flower, possibly because it is the symbol of her clan.

Being a lesser noble and the head of her clan, she is rich, but her wealth is lesser than that of the noble families.

It has also been noted that she becomes sad whenever someone destroys trees and flowers in battles

History
As a young girl, Akumi was not shy and her personality was the complete opposite of what is today. She used to be very confident until the day her mother got murdered. Akumi and her sister were just reading in her room, when a group of hollows attacked the town where she lived. They completely destroyed the town, leaving nothing alive, even innocent babies.

Akumi and her sister were hiding with their mother when Grand Fisher attacked. Akumi managed to get her sister to safety, but not before seeing Grand Fisher murder her mother. This was a serious trauma for Akumi, who lost her confident personality.

Later, she resolved to join the Gotei 13 and finish all hollows that were there in this world. Through resolve and determination, Akumi become one of the few girls that were part of the Sixth Division and even managed to become the third seat of the Division
