Genryūsai Shigekuni Yamamoto was the captain of the 1st Division in the Gotei 13 and also the Captain-Commander of the whole Gotei 13. His lieutenant was Chōjirō Sasakibe. After being cast into Hell, he has gained the epithet of "Founder of the Gotei" (Gotei Kaiso; Viz "Court Guard Founder").
His zanpakutō Ryūjin Jakka is the most powerful fire-type zanpakutō in Soul Society, and his bankai, Zanka no Tachi, is so destructive that he could never release it freely without incinerating everything around him — which is exactly why it is seen so rarely in the series.
This is a handmade real steel Bleach katana. It is not made of foam or plastic: the blade is genuine full tang carbon steel, paired with a lacquered wooden scabbard, a wooden handle with purple cord wrap, and bronze fittings. Built for display, collection and cosplay.
