So far I count 3 ranking shinigami who didn't start off human (Gin, Komamura, Kenpachi). How common is this? (I'm guessing sort of rare, because if it was common more people would be clocking Gin as nonhuman rather than the creepiest human in the room) And are Komamura's (and his adopted parent's) attempts at hiding it normal for nonhumans? Wait - is *Yoruichi* 100% human?
Its a lot more common in AEIWAM than in canon, and Komamura is in for more than a few surprises once his helmet comes off.

“Um. Komamura-Taicho?” A small voice asked from the door.
Sajin looked up- it was early in the afternoon, and the paperwork had slowed down for the first time since Tousen-
-Since the Ryoka incident some three weeks ago. Peering around the doorway was one of the newer recruits to the Seventh Division-
“Miss Fubuki?” He asked. It was a point of pride to have the name of every member of his division memorized within a month of their recruitment, and she had been here some years.
“Yessir!” she snapped to attention, stepping into the doorway. She was a darling thing, with large blue eyes and white hair befitting her name. “Er, Sorry to interrupt, but, um-” She fidgeted with the clipboard she was holding.
“It’s alright.” he said, putting his pen down and sitting up a bit to face her. “Despite recent changes to my appearance, I do not bite.”
She blinked at him for a moment, then grinned, relieved. “My apologies sir- I- I don’t think you ever *would*, sir. Captain Zaraki, perhaps but- sorry, that was very rude of me.”
“No, he absolutely does, but I believe he considers it a sign of affection.” Sajin nodded, and she giggled. “What was it you needed?”
