The 6th Division prides itself on the safety of Soul Society and the area’s surrounding it. All members of this division are at the top of their game, ready to give their all to ensure safety of others, as well as secure Soul Society as a whole. Laws are not fickle, and neither are 6th Division members.


Bankai is permissable to the Taichou and the Fukutaichou. Shikai is granted through the Sixth seat. Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth seat must be granted permission by either the Taichou or the Fukutaichou and must receive special training


As decreed by the 1st Division Taichou:
Shikai is only permissible if a Taichou and/or Fukutaichou permits it, It is used in the training grounds of that division in a reaitsu dampening area and/or the need genuinely calls for it. If Shikai is used without permission, it will be debated by the Taichou of the 6th Division and the Taichou of the offending Shinigami's Division on whether it was for an acceptable reason.
Bankai is only acceptable by Taichous or Fukutaichous within their respective Division's training grounds. Otherwise, it is completely banned within the whole of Soul Society and beyond unless the 1st Division Taichou decrees a War-Time Order.

Never fight outside of a sanctioned battle contained within either a Division's Training Grounds, General Training Grounds or the Academy's Training Grounds.*

Do not cause loud ruckus after lights out, which is designated by the closure of Academy classes daily. Further training may take place within designated Training Grounds with permission.

All seated Shinigami are to be treated with formal respect when met outside of training. No seat is more important than another. Informality is allowed inside of training if requested by the ranked Shinigami.

Ignorance to the law is unacceptable.

All infractions of the law are to be reported immediately to the 6th Division. From there, it will be determined what is the appropriate action to take. No exceptions.

* It is required to have permission from a Taichou from any division that the Academy is clear of students who could be harmed. Students are welcome to the Training Grounds at any time, but a Shinigami of 4th Seat level or higher must witness their battles. However, they still require permission from a Shinigami of at least Fukutaichou level. Battles involving Bokkens are the exception to this, and no seated shinigami are required to be present

Laws of the 6th Division:
1. Unless you are there to see the taichou or fuku-taichou, you are to wait in the front area for a 6th division memeber that you are there to see.

2. Unless you are accompanied by a member of the 6th division, People are not allowed to venture outside of the front area.

3. If you are seen without a member of the 6th division, and there is no 6th division, visitor, student, or normal, badge in your possession, you will be arrested and questioned immediately. Further action will be used if nesseccary
