He will only speak to higher ups unless spoken to, or if he’s being insulted. He will usually be mellow, calm and lazy though, tending to either be combat training or reading up on any techniques he should learn. Kenji also likes to read a good story from time to time. He is always ready to impress and show anyone, especially those of higher ranks, what he is capable of. Kenji has a tendency to joke around a lot with sarcasm as his specialty, but knows when it is time to get serious.

HistoryHistory: When Kenji was alive, He was a very respective young boy who only spoke when spoken to, his parents were very strict and so he was always the quiet type. Kenji didn’t have many friends except one, Kiyoshi Hikaru. The friends did everything together, play, hang out, and even get picked on from time to time. When he became a high school student, Kenji was accepted into the cool crowd of kids and Kenji was extremely happy to be accepted to the realm of high school. But there were complications, his best friend, Kiyoshi. The cool kids didn’t like Kiyoshi very much because he was also the quiet type and they told him not to hang out with him anymore. Kenji, desperate to finally become accepted, gradually grew farther from his friend, basically ending their friendship. One day, the day before summer, the cool kids decided to have their annual “freshman beat down” where they would select a freshman and give him the beating of a lifetime. Kenji was reluctant to the invite because he felt that it was morally wrong, but participated when he was informed that this would be his initiation. When they tracked down their victim, Kenji was planning on just sucking it up and getting the job done.
When he was ready to get started, Kenji was horrified when he realized that the victim that they had chosen was Kiyoshi himself. Now Kenji had a choice to make, beat up his best friend to be accepted or lose his chance get a high school pass. They gave him the bat, but Kenji just stood there not knowing what to do. When he hesitated, one of the cool kids took the bat from Kenji, saying that he’ll do it. But as soon as the kid initiated the attack, Kenji stood in between Kiyoshi and the kid, stopping him. Then Kenji punched him in the face and started a brawl, Kenji and Kiyoshi, now friends again, ended up fighting the whole crew. They were able to take out a few off them, but Kiyoshi was soon pushed into a river which was running heavily. Seeing as his best friend was about to drown, Kenji jumped in the river after him. He was able to save him and take him to land, but Kenji was soon swept away as the river flowed heavier. Kenji tried his best to swim out of it, but to no avail. Help came on the way and eventually took him out of the river, but it was too late, Kenji Akira had already drowned.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kenji awoke soon after to find his parents and his best friend crying. When he sat up he noticed a chain attached to his chest and wondered what was going on. He got up and walked over to his parents and friend, asking what was wrong. After getting slightly frustrated when they never answered them, Kenji went over to see what was going on. He had a shocked look on his face as he saw his own body laying there beneath them, Kenji was dead. After a few days, the shocked left him and Kenji started to get bored with being a ghost. He could talk to anyone, except for other ghost but they only showed up ever once in a while and he was chained to this damn river.
While just sitting around, Kenji noticed Kiyoshi getting bullied once again by the same boys that pretty much killed him. Kenji went over there in a futile attempt to help him when he noticed that Kiyoshi could hear him. After he noticed this, Kenji told Kiyoshi that he should fight back because he was there with him and he wouldn’t abandon him anymore. With a little more motivation from his best friend, Kiyoshi fought back. Basic summery, he took them all out, minus a few serious bruises, Kiyoshi did really good for himself. Then, Kenji noticed something, it was a hollow and it was going straight for Kiyoshi. Usually when faced with a hollow, Kenji would run and/or hide, not this time. Knowing his friend was in danger, he went right in front of the charging hollow and grabbed it by the teeth, pushing it back as much as he could, while trying to tell Kiyoshi to run. After a quick hesitation from hearing his friend struggling, Kiyoshi finally complied. But the hollow soon overpowered Kenji and went after Kiyoshi. Kenji stared at it, horrified and helpless as the hollow closed in on its meal. All of a sudden, the hollow split in two as a blade seemingly went through it.
A shinigami had just taken out the hollow that threatened his best fiend’s life. After being bombarded with thank yous from Kenji, the shinigami informed him that he needed to perform a konso on him, but Kenji stated that he wanted the make sure that his best friend was ok so the shinigami gave him a day to say good bye. The next day, Kenji saw Kiyoshi walking down the same path by the river so he went to him to have a chat. Kenji was informed that thanks to him standing up to the bullies, he was finally accepted and had many friends. Kenji was happy about this and sad at the fact that he had to leave his friend, but Kiyoshi understood that Kenji needed to move on. After sharing one more heart felt good bye, Kiyoshi departed, happy that both of them were able to make amends. The Shinigami soon made his way to the river to inform Kenji that it was time. Now finally at peace, Kenji obliged and received the Konso, passing on to the soul society.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kenji’s life, or afterlife, in the soul society didn’t leave Kenji feeling as good as when he moved on. He was moved to one of the poor areas of the Rukan district and was often attacked and/or robbed, etc. Kenji had no recollection of his life in the human world so he didn't even have some good memories to keep him happy. Pretty soon after the robberies, Kenji was starting to get sick of this so one day, as someone he was being robbed again just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time, Kenji took a stick and beat the men that were robbing him in one fell swoop. A Shinigami witnessed this and offered Kenji a chance to join the academy so he may one day become a Shinigami, seeing as the boy held a very interesting fighting style. Remembering the Shinigami that saved his best friend, Kenji was quick to accept so took the entrance exams, passing with high remarks. Kenji was accepted into the spiritual arts academy.
Once accepted Kenji wasn’t treated very good, partially because he was new and partially because he was so young. The high ranks would always treat him like some inexperience kid, probably because he was an inexperienced kid, but they always went about it in a harsh fashion. Even though he was yelled at constantly, looked down upon, Kenji trained and studied extremely hard. Kenji graduated after 6 years in the academy, being the youngest graduate of that year. After much thought, or eeny meenie miney moe guessing, Kenji chose to apply for the 7th squad and was accepted into an unseated position, but was put into consideration for a seated position once he had a little more experience.
Once Kenji was able to gain the experience, he was promoted to third seat and pretty soon afterwards, he was recommended to be transferred to the first division as Vice Captain after he had displayed a tremendous amount of skill in a 2 on 1 battle against his former Captain alongside his former Vice Captain. Once he was promoted once again, Kenji spent most of his time doing the jobs that required him to actually leave his division HQ, usually stopping high level Shinigami from killing each other or something like that. It was later revealed to the rest of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads that Kenji had acheived Bankai soon after his tranfer to first division so he was quickly chosen to become Captain of the tenth division.
