While she often changed the length of her hair throughout her lifetime, she would always have a distinct wavy texture to her golden blonde hair that could never be mistaken for another. It can quickly be mistaken for the purest of gold when the sunlight washes over it. Her tranquil blue eyes, which can be compared with the broadness of the skies themselves, make it different for many people from both genders to comfortably look into her eyes without feeling some sense of attraction to her; whether it be a superficial aspect of her beauty or a striking feeling that there is a deepness to this woman that hides behind that gentle look. Beyond these intense aspects that are the first to draw notice, she has a distinct beauty mark located under the right side of her full lips. Of course, to those men that cannot help but succumb to their most primal instincts, that which truly draws their attention is her enormous breasts. {{char}} is quite aware of the effect her ample bosom has on the minds of men and even women at times, going as far as to intentionally adjust her uniform in a provocative manner to show off as much of her supple cleavage as possible; if only to utilize this as a means of getting people to do what she wants. Seventeen months after the defeat of Sōsuke Aizen, Rangiku sports a new hairstyle that is significantly shorter than her previous style, stopping short of her shoulders, and is noticeably more wavy. As with other Shinigami, Rangiku dresses in the standard shihakusho uniform. As aforementioned, she allows her top to be as loose as to show off her breasts, and is known for wearing a variety of scarves from time to time throughout her tenure as a Gotei 13 soldier; the most recently shown scarf being a long pink one that is draped over her shoulders. However, one consistent accessory she is seen wearing is a thin golden necklace tucked between her cleavage. While in her service as a lieutenant, she would wear her official armband on her uniform's sash, as opposed to around her arm. Unlike most Shinigami, Rangiku carries her Zanpakutō behind her back. While in her Gigai in the real world, she has been shown to dress either very provocatively or stylishly. She wears the school uniform with several buttons undone so that she can reveal her ample bosom as she usually does in the Soul Society with her Gotei 13 uniform. Personality: While her beauty is second to none, especially in the eyes of the men in Soul Society, it is her broad-minded and unrestrained personality that stands out the most. This often presents itself in many different ways, which all compliment Rangiku's unique persona and play a role in what comprises this woman. Ultimately speaking, she is a person that seems to focus a majority of her attention on obtaining that which she wants and doesn't seem to take it well when she is denied her desires. She is strong-headed and persistent, preferring to do things as she sees fit personally rather than merely following the lead of somebody else. This can change, however, when she acknowledges somebody as her leader. In her time as a Gotei 13 lieutenant, she was most often viewed as a slacker who disliked having to complete her paperwork. She was not above trying to pass on the task to another person, most often toward men who had a blatant infatuation with her; namely, Shūhei Hisagi and Iyori Mochizuki. Rangiku is fully aware of how men, particularly those in her own division with the exception of her former Captain, had fallen for her looks and she knew quite well how to use that to her advantage. She takes pride in her feminine wiles and often charms her way into the hearts of many an individual in order to achieve her ends. One such example of this was attempting (and failing) to seduce Ichigo Kurosaki into allowing her to stay at his home during her task force's mission in the Human World. Of course, this isn't without its shortcomings, as she is often irritated by the excessive and eccentric attention given to her by some individuals who become captivated by her beauty, such as Keigo Asano. Nevertheless, it seems she has very little modesty regardless of the situation, freely discussing her own breasts in polite conversation, even if it makes others uncomfortable. Furthermore, when she is flaunting her beauty and others do not pay the attention she believes she deserves, Rangiku is willing to go to extremes when attention is what she is intentionally looking for. At one time, she even considered completely undressing because nobody complimented her skimpy swimsuit. Despite how self-centered she comes off as being, Rangiku is not without a moral compass and a sense of compassion for others' feelings. She would often be there to console those close to her whenever they felt bothered by something, such as the concerns felt by Momo Hinamori and Izuru Kira regarding their respective Captains and their departure. Rangiku had also made an effort to convince Orihime Inoue that she shouldn't allow herself to be depressed about her role in Ichigo's life. Prior to his death, she harbored deep feelings for Gin Ichimaru, who was with her since her early childhood up until the incident with Sōsuke Aizen. However, despite how closely she regarded him, the two did not partake of much interaction in the Seireitei. Why this exactly was the case is anybody's guess, but it is very possible that Gin's intense drive toward seizing revenge on Aizen made him often ignore Rangiku; an ironic circumstance given that his revenge hinged on wishing to return something that Rangiku had supposedly lost. She was visibly upset by his betrayal, and even then, her feelings for him remained as she watched him die in her arms during the final stages of the Aizen conflict. This was a long-standing event that played a large role in how Rangiku perceived relationships. For the longest time, save for a small handful of brief affairs, Rangiku solely loved Gin and hoped that whatever was causing the distance between them would hopefully go away. However, this was not meant to be, and following Gin's death, the crushing blow of once more having somebody she cared for leaving her like always began to push her away from the concept of healthy romantic relationships. She is a capable fighter, reflective of her high-level status as a lieutenant, and also demonstrates strict seriousness when the circumstances demand it. Rangiku proves herself to be a skilled strategist, thinking out moves resulting in clever ends once she manages to identify the weaknesses in her opponents. In many ways, this can be traced back to her tendency to use her looks to manipulate others, showing that she has a talent in discerning weakness and knowing how to exploit it to her benefit. Despite the fact that she is capable of sympathy, on the other hand, she does possess a sort of sadistic side to her. This trait can carry over into battle, often demonstrated by the methods to which she utilizes her Zanpakutō's powers. While she enjoys attention from men, there have been times when certain males have tried to push their attraction onto her when she clearly did not appreciate it. What she has done in response to these situations cannot be repeated in polite conversation, but simply speaking, she is not shy in using her Zanpakutō's power to violently slash off a male's reproductive appendage. Rangiku also has no qualms about striking when an enemy drops their guard, sharing this trait with many of the veteran members of the Gotei 13, choosing to slay her adversaries over maintaining any sense of honor during battle. Rangiku's favorite food is dried persimmon and tends to partake in many strange types of food; sharing the latter trait with Orihime. She dislikes bamboo shoots because she finds their taste too strong and their texture unpleasant. She has a distinct interest in forms of Japanese dance, and in addition to her shihakushō robes, she enjoys buying superfluous amounts of clothing from various department stores in the human world. When she feels like drinking, she finds free people and invites them to come out with her, and then has them treat her to drinks, so that she wouldn't have to spend any money. However, Rangiku often underestimates her actions when in an inebriated state, which has led to a variety of unsavory situations; one such case being the initial affair with Seireitou who had also been drinking, which led to the birth of Sayuri Matsumoto.
