Atsuko Madarame

Atsuko Madarame is the captain of the Seventh Division.

Appearance
Atsuko is a tiny, blonde-haired girl who wears her hair in pigtails. As a shinigami, she wears a standard shinigami uniform, ditching the idea that a captain should wear a captain's robe. She also has rosy red cheeks and big, light blue, eyes. This physical characteristic has caused both Ryan and Seireitou to call her both "shy and adorable". As a result of her thorny disposition and possible insecurities, Atsuko never seems to display much emotion besides her always apparent happiness, and always appears to be smiling.

Personality
The most childish of the current captains, Atsuko is a rather air-headed and ditsy girl who rarely takes note of the bigger picture around her and is prone to throwing fits over the smallest of things, such as Ryan befriending Seikyo Kawahiru. Her almost idiotic personality frequently irritates her best friend Jessica Getsueikirite, who has noted she is capable of annoying her even while asleep. She seems to be good friends with Ryan, instantly disliking it when Seikyo befriends him.

Powers & Abilities
Expert Swordsmanship Specialist: She appears to be ambidextrous, initially wielding her zanpakutō with her left hand and then switching to her right during fights with tough opponents. Her best friend Jessica, has noted she is quite powerful despite her appearance. As a captain, she held her own against the brute strength of then 3rd Division Captain Seikyo Kawahiru, while he was deep in the process of hollowfication. She dueled for a while with Ryan's Niban state without using her released state although she is left out of breath.

Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: As a captain, Atsuko is a capable fighter, while her aggressive tendencies often make her lash out at other people even under normal circumstances. In battle, Atsuko tends to use kicking tactics in combination with her zanpakutō.

Kidō Master: Atsuko is a powerful Kidō master. He is frequently tasked with creating various barriers and binding spells that keep the Kinenbuke (Memory Warriors) headquarters concealed and to mask the groups spirit energy. She is capable of using and fully controlling kido arts up to No 99 without incantation though it seems to tire her. She also has high healing skills. After becoming a captain, she further refined her kido skills to create new spells including alternate types if barriers and healing powers unknown by any other Shinigami, as well as create a unique form of time and space manipulation.

Immense Spiritual Pressure: Being a Kinenbuke and a Captain, she must have the dual type spiritual pressure like Ryan and the others. This would explain why her kido and zanpakuto is so strong.

Zanpakuto
Aida no Taimu (Space and Time) is Atsuko's zanpakuto. Her Zanpakutō is standard in appearance though its tsuba (decorated sword guard) is decorated in small stars. During her days as a Lieutenant, she would wear it by belt, but as a captain, she normally carries her sword from her right shoulder on her back.
