Personality
Koganehiko and Shiroganehiko are very loyal characters to the Shiba clan and their affiliates. They are easily upset by disapointment from Kukaku and Ganju, but are very hard workers, doing the work that Kūkaku gives them flawlessly and without complaint or resistance.

History
They have been guards at the Shiba house for a long time, as seen when they instantly recognized Yoruichi Shihōin in her feline form even though she had not set foot in Soul Society in 100 years. The pair previously were Kūkaku and Kaien Shiba's educators. Since the fall of the Shiba clan, they are the only people who continue to serve the family.

Soul Society arc
They first appear when Ichigo Kurosaki and his group visit Shiba Kūkaku.
