I forgot about that. I remember that statement now, only Yamamoto, Unohana, Kyôraku and Ukitake have been captains for more than 100 years.

But does that statement regard only the current Gotei 13 captains? I get the feeling that some of the Royal Guard members, like Kirinji, Oshô and Nimaiya, have been captains for at least 100 years before they were promoted. They seem to have that experience.

Especially Nimaiya, since he created the Asauchi, that must have happened around the time the Gotei 13 were formed, I think.
