Harunobu Ogidō

is the 8th Seat of the Fourth Division as well as the second leader of the first relief team.

Appearance
Harunobu has dark brown hair with brown eyes and wears the standard Shinigami uniform, with a rope strap that connects the relief pack on his back. He also seems to wear white gloves.

Personality
He has had few speaking roles in the anime or manga. However, he seems dedicated to his work, as he is often seen leading his First Relief team around Seireitei. He and Yasochika Iemura annoy each other leading Iemura to draw his Zanpakutō once. He is shown to be very popular with the ladies as most of the 4th Division's mail is addressed to him from the women of the Soul Society and is also a member of the Shinigami Men's Association.

Soul Society Arc
He is seen only once ticking Lemura off by claiming Lemura would do so many things to Orihime Inoue if she was a member of their squad. Lemura attempts to cut him for this, but Ogidō retalliates by drawing his own Zanpakutō. He then claims he already sent for Captain Unohana.

Zanpakutō Unknown Tales arc (anime only)
Note: Events occurring in this arc are only in the anime and do not constitute canon material.

Ogidō is seen briefly in after the end of the battle between the Shinigami and Zanpakutō spirits in the 6th Division barracks when a contingent of 4th Division members arrived to help treat the injured. He informed Captain Unohana that they had found Izuru Kira, Ikkaku Madarame and Yumichika Ayasegawa. He was ordered to heal the injured officers.

Powers and Abilities
Healer: Being that he is a member of the Fourth Division, it is likely that he is a skilled healer. His rank places him just below Hanatarō Yamada, but it is unknown if he is as skilled.

Kidō Practitioner: As a member of the 4th Division, it is safe to assume that he has some degree of Kidō knowledge but it is unknown his level.
