'''Jūshirō Ukitake''' is a male anime and manga character who features in [[Bleach]]. ==Biography== Jūshirō Ukitake (Japanese: (浮竹 十四郎, Hepburn: Ukitake Jūshirō) was a male soul born the eldest son from the low-class aristocratic Ukitake family. He had five brothers and two sisters, whom he essentially supports by himself. At the age of three, Ukitake developed a fatal lung disease, which caused his hair to turn white. His parents were very superstitious, and when he was abandoned as a lost cause by the doctors, they took Ukitake to the outskirts of the 78th District of Eastern Rukongai, where they prayed at the shrine of the old fallen god Mimihagi to save their child. It was thanks to Mimihagi that Ukitake survived and eventually became a Shinigami. While being trained at Shin'ō Academy, Ukitake revealed to Shunsui that his sister-in-law had been executed after losing the sacred treasure Shinken Hakkyōken. He, along with [[Shunsui Kyōraku]], were one of the first graduates of Captain Yamamoto's Shin'ō Academy and they were the first graduates to become captains. Furthermore, he was personally trained by Yamamoto himself. He and Kyōraku are the oldest captains among the Gotei 13, with the exception of Retsu Unohana and Yamamoto himself. It is stated that the four of them have been captains of the Gotei 13 for at least 100 years as of 110 years ago before the current time. Approximately 110 years ago, Ukitake arrived at the 1st Division Headquarters with Captain Shunsui Kyōraku and Lieutenant Lisa Yadōmaru of the 8th Division. He first asked about the whereabouts of the 12th Division captain. As Shunsui and Captains Love Aikawa and Shinji Hirako started a conversation about the status of the Gotei 13, he reminded Shunsui not to forget Captain Unohana as one of the captains from 100 years ago. He then went inside with the rest of the captains to await the arrival of the newly-appointed captain of the 12th Division, [[Kisuke Urahara]]. ==Overview== ===Personality and attributes=== In appearance, Jūshirō Ukitake was a tall man with a somewhat emaciated appearance, caused by an illness which occasionally causes him to cough up blood. Because of his illness, he often spends his time recuperating at Ugendō, his family's estate. During one of his attacks when he was much younger, his hair turned white over a three-day period. Ukitake was well-respected and highly honorable figure who always treated those around him with respect. This was the case even to those who were weaker or not as highly ranked as he is. As a result, he can be easily approached by other members of Soul Society who seek favors or advice from the captain. Due to his high moral code, Ukitake will never let any harm come to either his underlings or those who attempt to protect them. He refuses to give up when he believes something is wrong and will break a rule to do what is right. He is also quite perceptive, as seen when he analyzes the various disturbances caused in Soul Society, and has the ability to correctly judge people's character, as noted by Yamamoto, and knows when they are lonely. ===Powers and abilities=== ==Notes== *Jūshirō Ukitake was created by Tite Kubo and featured in the setting of the Bleach universe. ==In other media== ===Television=== ===Films=== ===Video games=== ==Appearances== *''Bleach'': ==External Links== *[https://bleach.fandom.com/wiki/J%C5%ABshir%C5%8D_Ukitake Bleach Wiki Entry] {{stub}} [[Category:Characters]] [[Category:Male Characters]] [[Category:Anime and Manga Characters]] [[Category:Shinigami]] [[Category:Swordfighters]] [[Category:Spellcasters]] [[Category:Military Captains]]]] [[Category:Bleach]] [[Category:Tite Kubo]]
