A pajama party at the Kurosaki clinic but with a pick me girl named Tsuki Ichinose

Tsuki is a pick me girl who is the lieutenant of captain Gin Ichimaru and of the 3rd Division in general, she'll hate on every woman she sees as a threat to her "popularity" and will do anything for attention from all the men in soul society including captain of squad 5 Sosuke Aizen and her captain Gin Ichimaru.

Tsuki has long pastel blue hair with sharp ruby red eyes and always has her eyes narrowed with false sweetness and a fake smile plastered on her face.

She's haughty, stuck up, extremely rude towards women, overly sweet towards the men, passive-aggressive, manipulative, and very gaslightful towards those who call her out on her bullshit.

BLEACH OC — Tsuki Ichinose (一ノ瀬 月希)

The Third Division's Smiling Serpent

"Eh~? Me? Jealous? Oh, don't be ridiculous! I'm simply saying that some women should learn their place around Ichimaru-taichō~!"

Tsuki Ichinose is the lieutenant of the Gotei 13's Third Division, serving directly under Captain Gin Ichimaru. Recognized for her long pastel-blue hair, sharp ruby-red eyes, and permanently narrowed gaze, Tsuki is a deceptively sweet woman whose innocent appearance conceals an attention-seeking, manipulative, and deeply competitive personality.

She is a notorious pick-me girl who considers herself different from the other female Shinigami in Soul Society.

Tsuki constantly seeks Gin's attention, imitates his unsettling mannerisms, and believes that being his lieutenant makes her more important than the other women around him.

What makes their dynamic particularly amusing is that Gin sees through her entire personality.

And Tsuki has absolutely no idea.

II. Appearance

Tsuki is a strikingly elegant Shinigami whose appearance gives the impression of someone gentle, approachable, and exceptionally well-mannered.

However, there is something subtly unsettling about her expression.

Hair: Tsuki possesses extremely long, silky pastel-blue hair that falls past her waist. Her bangs are slightly uneven, with several loose strands framing her cheeks and one longer section partially covering the bridge of her nose.

A portion of her hair is loosely gathered behind her head with a white ribbon, while the remaining strands flow freely down her back.

Eyes: Her most recognizable feature is her sharp, luminous ruby-red eyes.

Much like Gin Ichimaru, Tsuki keeps her eyes perpetually narrowed, creating the impression that she is always smiling.

However, unlike Gin, she occasionally opens them just enough to reveal her piercing red irises.

This typically happens whenever she becomes jealous, irritated, or genuinely interested in something.

Facial Expression: Tsuki wears a permanently plastered smile.

It is soft, delicate, and seemingly innocent, but entirely manufactured.

Even when insulting someone, she tilts her head and smiles as though she has just offered them a compliment.

Her smile rarely disappears, even when she is furious.

Shinigami Uniform: She wears the traditional black Shihakushō, featuring slightly elongated sleeves, a white underlayer, and a neatly tied white obi.

Her Third Division lieutenant's badge rests on her left arm, and her Zanpakutō is secured at her left hip.

She also wears a thin red decorative cord around her waist.

III. Personality — A Sweetness That Never Reaches Her Eyes

Tsuki is a manipulative, attention-seeking woman who has perfected the art of making herself appear innocent.

She speaks with exaggerated politeness, giggles after delivering insults, and frequently presents herself as someone who simply gets along better with men because other women are supposedly too dramatic.

Her entire personality revolves around being perceived as exceptional.

Her Pick-Me Behavior

1. She considers herself different from other female Shinigami.

Tsuki constantly insists that she isn't interested in gossip, unnecessary drama, or competing for attention.

Ironically, she regularly engages in all three.

She frequently makes comments such as:

"Ahaha~! I suppose I'm simply different from most girls. I've never understood why they get so emotional over the smallest things!"

2. She desperately wants Gin's approval.

Tsuki is particularly devoted to her captain.

She brings him tea without being asked, organizes his paperwork, volunteers for assignments, and occasionally pretends to need his assistance with tasks she can easily accomplish herself.

Whenever Gin praises another lieutenant, Tsuki immediately finds a reason to demonstrate her own usefulness.

3. She disguises insults as compliments.

Tsuki rarely insults people directly.

Instead, she delivers backhanded compliments while maintaining her deceptively pleasant expression.

For example:

"Oh, Hinamori-san! You're so brave for speaking your mind so openly. I could never embarrass myself like that in front of a captain~!"

4. She weaponizes innocence.

Whenever someone confronts her about her behavior, Tsuki immediately acts confused.

She tilts her head, widens her smile, and asks what she could possibly have done wrong.

If necessary, she will pretend that the other person has misunderstood her intentions.

5. She is genuinely intelligent.

Despite her childish competitiveness, Tsuki is not incompetent.

She is an accomplished lieutenant with excellent observational skills, precise spiritual control, and considerable experience in psychological manipulation.

Her biggest flaw is that she allows her desire for validation to interfere with her judgment.

IV. Relationship with Gin Ichimaru

Captain and Lieutenant — The Two Smiling Snakes

Tsuki absolutely adores serving beneath Gin Ichimaru.

She believes their similar appearances and mannerisms make them a particularly compatible captain-lieutenant duo.

She even began narrowing her eyes more frequently after becoming his lieutenant, although she vehemently denies copying him.

Tsuki frequently calls him Ichimaru-taichō~, deliberately dragging out the honorific in an affectionate, sing-song voice.

She also enjoys reminding other women that she is his lieutenant.

In her mind, this position grants her a special understanding of him.

Gin, however, finds Tsuki's behavior amusing rather than convincing.

He recognizes that her sweetness is artificial, that she constantly seeks his attention, and that her supposedly innocent remarks are often deliberately malicious.

Occasionally, he encourages her behavior simply to see how far she will take it.

Their Typical Interaction

Third Division Captain's Office.

Tsuki enters carrying a neatly organized stack of paperwork.

Tsuki: "Ichimaru-taichō~! I've finished organizing all your reports! Honestly, I don't understand how some lieutenants can be so irresponsible. I could never!"

Gin: "My, my. Ain't ya a helpful little thing?"

Tsuki: "Ehehe~! Well, I suppose dedication comes naturally when you genuinely respect your captain!"

Gin: "That so?"

Tsuki: "Of course! Unlike certain people, I would never abandon my responsibilities just to go drinking."

Gin: "Ya talkin' about Rangiku again?"

Tsuki: "Eh? Why would you think that, Captain~?"

Gin: "Dunno. Ya seem awfully interested in her."

Tsuki's smile momentarily stiffens.

Tsuki: "Ahaha... You're so funny, Ichimaru-taichō!"

Gin merely chuckles.

He knows.

She knows he probably knows.

Neither acknowledges it.

V. Her One-Sided Rivalry with Rangiku Matsumoto

If there is one woman Tsuki genuinely cannot stand, it is Rangiku Matsumoto.

Tsuki considers Rangiku everything she supposedly dislikes in another woman: carefree, outspoken, occasionally irresponsible, and far too familiar with Gin.

She particularly resents the fact that Rangiku shares a personal history with him that Tsuki knows very little about.

Whenever Rangiku visits the Third Division, Tsuki makes a point of remaining close to Gin.

She also frequently offers unnecessary comments about Rangiku's work ethic.

Example Interaction

Tsuki: "Ara~? Matsumoto-san! Visiting again? Goodness, the Tenth Division must have such a relaxed schedule!"

Rangiku: "Hello to you too, Tsuki."

Tsuki: "Oh, don't misunderstand! I simply admire how comfortable you are leaving your responsibilities behind. I could never do that to my captain!"

Rangiku: "Uh-huh."

Tsuki: "Besides, Ichimaru-taichō already has me to keep him company!"

Gin: "Rangiku, ya want some persimmons?"

Rangiku: "Sure!"

Tsuki: "..."

Her smile remains perfectly intact.

Her fingers, however, tighten around the documents in her hands.

VI. Zanpakutō — Amahime (雨姫)

Translation: Rain Princess

Amahime is an elegant water-based Zanpakutō that reflects Tsuki's deceptive personality.

Although its abilities appear delicate and beautiful, they are particularly effective at restricting movement and manipulating the battlefield.

Sealed Form

Amahime resembles a traditional katana with a pale-blue hilt, a silver raindrop-shaped guard, and a glossy black sheath.

Shikai

Release Command: "Weep beautifully, Amahime."

Upon release, Amahime transforms into a slender silver blade with a translucent, pale-blue edge.

Small droplets of condensed spiritual energy continuously materialize around its surface.

Tsuki can manipulate these droplets into different formations.

Technique

Ability

Namida no Ito

Creates thin threads of condensed spiritual water that restrict an opponent's movements.

Hisame

Produces a concentrated shower of hardened spiritual droplets.

Utsushi Shizuku

Generates distorted reflections of Tsuki within suspended droplets to confuse opponents.

Ame no Ori

Surrounds an opponent with a temporary cage of condensed spiritual water.

Primary Weakness: Amahime requires exceptional concentration and emotional stability.

Whenever Tsuki becomes genuinely frustrated, jealous, or embarrassed, her control over the droplets deteriorates.

This makes her personality one of her greatest weaknesses in battle.

Bankai

Not yet achieved.

Tsuki occasionally implies that she is close to obtaining Bankai, particularly when she wants to impress Gin.

In reality, her Zanpakutō spirit refuses to cooperate fully until Tsuki learns to acknowledge her genuine emotions instead of hiding everything behind a smile.

VIII. Tsuki's Signature Quotes

When introducing herself:

"Ichinose Tsuki~! Third Division Lieutenant! Please take good care of me, although I'm sure we'll get along wonderfully!"

When another woman compliments Gin:

"Oh? You admire Ichimaru-taichō too? How adorable. Although, I suppose admiring someone and actually understanding them are two entirely different things~!"

When Rangiku enters Gin's office:

"Matsumoto-san! Again? My goodness, you're practically becoming a regular visitor. Should I prepare a chair specifically for you?"

When someone calls her a pick-me:

"Pick-me? Ahaha~! What a strange accusation. Is it really my fault that I happen to get along with captains better than some people?"

When Gin praises her:

"Ehehe~! Oh, Captain, you're making me embarrassed! But please, feel free to compliment me again!"

When another lieutenant outperforms her:

"Congratulations! I suppose everyone deserves their little moment in the spotlight."

When she becomes genuinely irritated:

"Would you mind repeating that? I don't believe I heard you correctly~"

When she stops pretending to be harmless:

"How unfortunate. I was trying so very hard to be nice to you."

IX. Tsuki's Greatest Flaw

Tsuki's greatest insecurity is not that she believes herself inferior to other women.

It is that she cannot stand the possibility of being replaceable.

She has convinced herself that becoming Gin Ichimaru's lieutenant makes her special. She believes that her loyalty, intelligence, and willingness to imitate his mannerisms distinguish her from everyone else.

Yet she fundamentally misunderstands him.

Gin's smile conceals his intentions, while Tsuki's smile conceals her insecurities.

Gin does not require constant approval.

Tsuki practically lives for it.

This difference becomes painfully apparent whenever Gin gives someone else his attention.

A Small Scene — The Smile That Slipped

Tsuki stands beside Gin in the Third Division courtyard, her hands clasped neatly behind her back.

"Ichimaru-taichō~! I've been wondering something!"

Gin glances toward her.

"Hm?"

"Would you say I'm your most dependable subordinate?"

Gin smiles.

"Well, yer my lieutenant, ain't ya?"

Tsuki giggles.

"Ehehe! Of course! But I meant... personally."

"Personally?"

"Yes! Surely you prefer having someone like me around rather than someone so... irresponsible?"

Gin looks at her for a moment.

Then his smile widens.

"Ya wouldn't happen to be talkin' about Rangiku again, would ya?"

Tsuki's ruby-red eyes open slightly.

"..."

"Awfully quiet all of a sudden, Tsuki-chan."

Her expression immediately returns to its usual sweetness.

"Ahaha~! Captain, you really do say the funniest things!"

Gin chuckles and walks away.

Tsuki remains standing in the courtyard.

Her smile stays perfectly plastered across her face.

But her eyes are no longer narrowed.

Tsuki Ichinose — a woman who imitates Gin Ichimaru's smile so perfectly that she has forgotten the difference between appearing happy and actually being happy.
