Lisa Yadōmaru

Lisa Yadōmaru (矢胴丸 リサ, Yadōmaru Risa?) is a Vizard and was the former lieutenant of the 8th Division under Captain Shunsui Kyōraku.

History
Former lieutenant of the 8th Division, Lisa was sent by her captain Kyōraku to help the squad formed to discover what happened to the 9th Division captain and his squad. Though the group she was with led by Shinji Hirako attempted to restrain Mashiro and Kensei, they too were attacked and transformed prior to Kisuke Urahara and Tessai Tsukabishi intervening to stop Sōsuke Aizen and his Hollowfication experiments. Lisa, like all the other transformed Shinigami, was protected by Urahara from being executed by the Soul Society and allowed them to escape peacefully where they would learn to train and master their new transformations.

Appearance
Lisa bears a notable resemblance to her replacement Nanao Ise, with similar rounded face, oval glasses and long, braided, dark hair. She dresses in a sailor fuku, as opposed to the more Western-style uniforms worn by the students of Karakura High School. In consistency with her current appearance, her shinigami uniform during her time in the Gotei 13 had a shortened hakama resembling a skirt.

Personality
Lisa is one of the calmer and more sensible Vizard and is quite similar to Nanao Ise in appearance, attitude and relationship with her previous captain Kyoraku. She is quite stern and serious, and prefers to keep to herself. She seems easily irritated and apparently likes to read erotic manga (specifically, Josei manga). She is also very curious, and had a habit of spying on the captain's meetings during her time in Soul Society. She apparently lends her ero-manga to other characters, including the vizard and Ichigo (who denies it).

Powers & Abilities
Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: She is also quite agile and flexible suggesting she has good hand to hand combat skills.

Expert Swordsmanship Specialist: She appears to be ambidextrous, initially wielding her zanpakutō with her left hand and then switching to her right during her fight with Ichigo. Her former captain Kyoraku has noted she is quite powerful despite her appearance. She dueled for a while with Ichigo's hollow state without using her release states or hollow mask although she is left out of breath.

Zanpakuto
Like most of the other vizard, Lisa's zanpakutō's name and release state is unknown. Her zanpakutō is however considerably longer than most, resembling a nōdachi with a dark blue hilt wrapping.
