Lisa Yadōmaru

is a Vizard and was the former Lieutenant of the 8th Division under Captain Shunsui Kyōraku.

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 regards to her appearance, attitude, and relationship with her previous captain Kyōraku, although there is a slight suggestion that she proved less resistant to his constant advances. She is quite stern and serious, again reminiscent of Nanao, and seems rather distant and secretive. 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). Like her former captain, she exhibits ambidextrous traits, such as being able to wield her zanpakutō proficiently with either hand during a brief scuffle with Hollow Ichigo. Despite her rather distant personality, she appears to care about her fellow Vizard; she warned Kensei about Ichigo's hollow.

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 several members of his squad. The group led by Shinji Hirako attempted to restrain Mashiro and Kensei but they were attacked by Sōsuke Aizen, Gin Ichimaru and Kaname Tōsen, resulting in them transforming into hollows. Before the transformation was complete Kisuke Urahara and Tessai Tsukabishi intervened to stop 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.

Powers & Abilities
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 Kurosaki. Her former Captain Kyōraku has noted she is quite powerful despite her appearance. While still a vice-captain she held her own against the brute strength of then 9th Division Captain Kensei Mugurama, while he was deep in the process of hollowfication. 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.

Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: She is quite agile and flexible and was willing to fight Ichigo as a Hollow with a combination of hand to hand and swordsmanship which suggests she has good hand to hand combat skills.

Flash Steps Expert: Lisa is fast enough to have arrived at the site of the investigation when leaders of the 9th division went missing around the same time as the Captains that were sent to investigate. She was also well versed enough to engage in combat high in the air with sufficient speed to deal multiple attacks at high speeds too Kensei Mugurama deep in hollowfication.

Zanpakutō
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.
