Yay for Byakuya. Yes he was captain level but I am categorizing by official ranks with teh exception of Yumichika and Ikkaku as there is no reason to delv into ranks below LT in general as those seats in the other divisions were not fleshed out all that much, otherwise my list would be much different with me moving Renji up into captain level as well which would stir up debate. Either way, the SS is losing badly. For ever sternritter defeated, you lose two shinigami out of the lt or captain list or in some combination or like in Mask's case 3 LT's and 2 Captains.
