Akon

is a member of the 12th Division's research institute and the second-best gigai scientist in the Research Institute.

Appearance
Akon's appearance is that of a tall and eyebrow-less man, with a jagged part, and three short horns on his forehead which he did not have when he was younger.

Character Outline
Not much is know about Akon except that he was the first to realize that Rukia Kuchiki's gigai was created by someone working outside the laws of the Soul Society. He is usually seen along his two partners Rin Tsubokura and Hiyosu. Together they were in charge of monitoring the real world for any increase in Arrancar activity during the Arrancar arc. In Turn Back The Pendulum, he was revealed to be in the Maggot's Nest at the same time as Mayuri and released alongside him to join the Science Bureau shortly after its establishment by Kisuke Urahara, 100 years prior to the present day, though he didn't have his horns yet at the time. In the present, he appears to get along quite well with Mayuri Kurotsuchi, far better than he did with Hiyori Sarugaki.
