Laziest Bleach Characters

Key recommendations

• Lazy characters in Bleach avoid responsibility, which can make them fun to watch.
• Characters like Suigetsu, Yukio, and Gremmy portray laziness in different ways.
• From relaxing with a handheld console to lazy battle tactics, their unique personalities shine through.

Not everyone from Whitening the universe is as engaging and proactive as Ichigo. There are quite a few people, both heroes and villains, who would rather let others do the work for them while they relax and enjoy their own company. To summarize, these characters can be considered lazy because of how they tend to avoid taking responsibility or getting involved in serious situations when they really should.

However, thanks to author Tite Kubo's excellent character writing skills, lazy characters Whitening they can still seem fun to watch, whether it's because of their comical humor or the fact that they possess an immense amount of power. Be that as it may, these are the characters that are considered some of the laziest of the Whitening series.

1 Kyoraku Shunsui

Suigetsu's nonchalant personality makes him a pretty bad fighter

• First Appearance: Episode 24

At the beginning of the year Whitening story, Kyoraku is introduced as a strong but ultimately very uncaring member of Gota 13. When fans first see Kyoraku after Chad punches him, the captain is lying on the floor, drinking his only and he even offers the enemy standing right in front of him a drink.

When Chad refuses and starts unleashing a flurry of attacks rather than springing into action, Kyoraku dodges each one like child's play, all while sitting down. He comes to take on more responsibility as the story progresses, but even when facing deadly threats like Coyote Starrk, Kyoraku's laziness tends to get the better of him at the worst times.

2 Yukio Hans Vorarlberg

Yukio can almost always be seen lazing around with his handheld console

• First Appearance: Episode 343

It can be easy to forget that Yukio is a member of the Fullbringers, considering all he likes to do is hide and play the handheld. Whenever the Fullbringers have something serious to deal with, such as when they are tasked with training Ichigo, Riruka has to be the one to push Yukio to let him go, which he only does with restraint.

As a result, this guy barely gets any screen time because whenever he's not urgently needed, he's supposedly engrossed in an intense gaming session. Even when called back for the final arc, Yukio still rarely takes his eyes off the screen. One thing's for sure though, whatever game he's playing, it must be long enough for him to keep it up so intensely.

3 Grammy Thomeaux

Gremmy's imaginative powers mean he doesn't need to move a muscle in battle

• First Appearance: TYBW episode 15

Since Gremmy's ability, the Seer, allows him to draw anything he can imagine into reality, he doesn't need to move a muscle when facing an enemy, making him a rather lazy combatant. A prime example of this can be seen in Gremmy's duel with Team 11's bloodthirsty captain, Zaraki Kenpachi.

As Kenpachi throws everything he has at Gremmy and is even forced to unleash his Bankai, which takes a huge toll on his body, Gremmy stays in one spot for most of the fight. He was even able to summon a meteor just by imagining it to exist. Fortunately, Gremmy was given this unique power, as his lazy personality certainly wouldn't have been compatible with any kind of sword fighting.

4 Coyote Starrk

Number 1 Espada would rather relax and watch the world go by than fight

• First Appearance: Episode 138

It's ironic that out of all of Aizen's Espada, Starrk is the one who takes the #1 spot in terms of power level, as he also happens to be the most laid back and lazy of the bunch. When Starrk is forced to face Kyoraku during the Fake Karakura Town arc, he seems less bothered by the captain standing in front of him and constantly tells Kyoraku that he would rather avoid the fight if he can.

The truth is that Starrk possessed such a staggering amount of Spirit Pressure that it meant any Hollow that even came close to him would be killed, forcing him into isolation when he was young. As a result, Starrk has become quite used to lazing around and watching the world go by, despite being one of Aizen's most powerful underlings.

5 Marechiyo Omaeda

Omaeda's lazy personality often clashes with his serious and stoic captain

• First Appearance: Episode 30

Although Omaeda starts pulling his weight a little later in the series, for the first few arcs, he is mostly characterized as a burden to his captain Soi Fon due to his lazy nature and obsession with potato chips. Unlike his stoic captain, who is always extremely serious and focused on the mission at hand, Omaeda is a much more carefree spirit who takes a relaxed approach to the events around him.

That's not to say he won't spring into action when needed, but as Soi Fon knows all too well, trying to push this guy to do his duty is no easy task. Thankfully, Kubo shows Omaeda in a much better light during the Thousand Year Blood War, but then again, it's hard to be so nonchalant when an army of Quincies arrives at your door.

6 Giselle Gewelle

Who needs to put in the effort when an army of zombies can do it all for you?

• First Appearance: TYBW episode 15

Giselle's ability, The Zombie, allows her to resurrect her friends and enemies to become members of her own personal zombified army. As a result, Giselle has no need to fight herself, instead throwing mindless corpses at the enemy and then feasting on their flesh later if she ends up injured, as she was shown doing with her deceased. “friend” Bambietta.

Since Giselle is also able to be cut to pieces without feeling a thing, it means she doesn't have to try as hard in her fights, letting her zombies get her hands dirty for her. This easygoing and laid-back personality helped make Giselle a lovable, if still very creepy, member of the Sternritter ranks.

7 Rangiku Matsumoto

Every day in the soul society is a lazy day for Rangiku

• First Appearance: Episode 30

Throughout the story of Whiteningthere were many scenes showing what each of the Soul Reapers does on their days off. For some, like Renji or Hitsugaya, this involves training with their Zanpakuto, while for Byakuya, it may mean filling out paperwork. For Rangiku, however, even though she has pressing responsibilities to attend to, she is almost always shown hanging out at the bar with anyone she can convince to join her.

There were even times where she was shown teasing her captain Hitsugaya for being too “hardworking”, which often ends up in a fight between the two. Rangiku is another Soul Reaper who is more than willing to show what she's made of when the situation calls for it, despite the fact that she'd rather be taking a hot bath or enjoying a few shots of sake.

8 Askin Nakk Le Var

It takes a lot for Askin to actually start trying when engaged in a fight

• First Appearance: TYBW Episode 17

Askin may be a high-ranking member of the Schutzstaffel, but that doesn't necessarily mean he always tries his best in battle. In fact, Askin tends to run away from any confrontations that seem like they would require him to expend at least some energy, as shown when he walks away from Grimmjow, only to find a nice, serene place where he can. enjoy a cup of coffee.

Later in the Thousand Year Blood War, Yoruichi even comments that Askin is holding back his power on purpose and is just playing with the loot. If his picnic baskets and coffee machines are anything to go by, Askin would rather sit and enjoy some delicious snacks, which he does for much of the first half of the final arc.
