Organization

The 2nd Division follows the traditional organization of a Gotei 13 Division.

Because the Captain of the 2nd Division also leads the Onmitsukidō (Stealth Force in the English dub), the 2nd Division's duties are directly tied in with the Onmitsukidō, each of the top 5 seated officers is in charge of a certain division of the Special Forces. At this time, it is known that the captain is in charge of the Executive Militia, the lieutenant is in charge of the Patrol Unit, and the 3rd Seat is in charge of the Detention Unit.

The Second Division HQ has been renovated at the expense of wealthy Lieutenant Marechiyo Ōmaeda. To accommodate Yoruichi Shihōin any day, any time, every room on every level has heated floors, automatic doors and air conditioning.[1]

Special Duties

No special duties have been noted for the 2nd Division. Since the linking of the Onmitsukidō with the 2nd Division well over 110 years ago, its role may have changed from its original duty.

The 2nd Division has been directly linked to the Onmitsukidō for well over 110 years ago by former Captain Yoruichi Shihōin who was Commander-in-Chief of the Onmitsukidō before being promoted to a captain. As such the special operations of Soul Society has become the full measure of what the division involves itself in primarily. Members are tasked with assassination, policing, detention and message couriers.

Recruitment

As the 2nd Division is led by Suì-Fēng, who is also the Supreme Commander of the Covert Ops, the division has a large number of soldiers especially skilled at stealthy activity. This combat-centric division also possesses a lot of battle skill.
