Trivia

 * On their days off, the soldiers of the 8th division and Rangiku and her friends all drink together.
 * A persistent rumour regarding the division is that once a week the soldiers of the 8th Division are invited to come to a drinking party, but male soldiers are forbidden, so in the end it's an entirely female gathering.
