Shinigami Women's Association
Manga ChapterA comedic bonus chapter tucked into the twenty-third Bleach volume, MALA SUERTE!. The Shinigami Women's Association gathers to choose a new phone design for its female members, and the meeting collapses into a parade of impractical pitches before the chairwoman settles the matter her own way.
Summary
The Shinigami Women's Association convenes under chairwoman Yachiru Kusajishi, who calls the room to order, then blanks on the agenda and turns to her rattled deputy, Nanao Ise. Nanao lays out the task at hand, choosing a Denreishinki design suited to every female Shinigami, and reminds the members that each was asked to bring a proposal with wide appeal.
Key Events
The submissions miss the mark completely. Rangiku Matsumoto offers a glittering oval in purple or gold, Isane Kotetsu a reinforced model built for tall owners who drop things from great heights, and Suì-Fēng a cat-and-bee hybrid meant to honor Yoruichi Shihōin. Nemu Kurotsuchi holds up something so lewd it arrives censored, leaving Nanao demanding to know what any of them were thinking. Yachiru then unveils her own concept, a Denreishinki assembled from edible parts, declares the matter closed, and rushes it into production.
Notes
The finished, snack-based device reaches the market and catches the eye of Rukia Kuchiki through a television advertisement. The skit appears in volume 23, titled MALA SUERTE!, alongside the Arrancar invasion chapters that fill the bulk of the book.
