Bleach: Shiba Kukaku 02

It is only in the anime that Shiba Kukaku's missing right arm is replaced with a prosthetic piece. She has some kind of relationship with the Urahara Shop, knowing Shihoin Yoruichi and claiming to have worked with Urahara Kisuke in the past. Kukaku is able to perform high level kido spells and carries a kodachi tied around the remaining portion of her right arm.

Beautiful cosplayer from the “Japan Expo Sud”, a French convention in Marseille! And it looks like Kukaku is quite the shutterbug herself. Thanks to Clad for the cool photography and for sending this!

Bleach: Neliel Tu Oderschvank 06

At first thought to be nothing more than a lost child in Hueco Mundo, Neliel is actually Tia Halibel's predecessor; a full-grown woman with a ram-horned hollow mask and a large "3" tattooed on her back. She is perhaps the most honorable among the Espada, sparing weak opponents whenever she could. however, this ideology caused her downfall, as Nnoitora Jiruga attacks her from behind during a duel and, with the help of Szayelaporro, manages to crack her mask. The duel left Neliel in her child-like form and gave her to have amnesia, allowing Nnoitora to expel her from the Espada.

A rather daring cosplay from MoeHaku 2010! She really has Nel's look down. I wonder if she had a hard time walking with just stockings? Thanks to Misha for sending this in!

Bleach: Soi Fon

Born to be known as Shaolin Fon, Soi Fon is the captain of the 2nd Division, replacing Shihoin Yoruichi, her former captain who abandoned her post to aid Urahara Kisuke in leaving Soul Society. As she served Yoruichi as a bodyguard and eventually becomes her protege, Soi Fon felt abandoned that Yoruichi did not take her during the escape. It takes a century before she sees her former captain once more, challenging her in battle in order to ask the questions left unanswered.

Beautiful and very daring cosplay! She looks so convincingly like Soi Fon that it feels like she jumped out of the manga! Thanks to Ana for sending this in!

Bleach: Ulquiorra Schiffer 03

One of the first Arrancar to be introduced, Ulquiorra Schiffer went to the Human World alongside Yammy Riyalgo with orders from Aizen Sosuke to seek out Kurosaki Ichigo. When

analyzed Ichigo's reiatsu and its growth potential, he concluded that Ichigo was of no threat to Aizen and left without killing him. Unfortunately, Ulquiorra will soon come to realize that his initially findings were dead wrong.

Another beautiful cosplay sent in by Ana! I love this character very much, but his demise left me speechless. Thanks for sharing this with us!

Bleach: Kyoraku Shunsui 02

Captain of the 8th Division, Kyoraku Shunsui is a peace-loving man who will always try to find a non-violent solution. He does not, however, insult his opponent by refusing an invitation to fight. He and Ukitake Jushiro are two of the oldest captains in Gotei 13 and were both trained under General Yamamoto.

Stunning cosplay by Inoli! I love the Katen Kyokotsu props, but what I found most impressive is that the cosplayer is actually a girl. Thanks again to Typhoon for sending this!
