Some translations from the Bleach Official Bootleg book. Some of these have been done already on one of the large Bleach forums, but this translator did a bit more on the captain and lieutenant profile sections than those, plus translated the recruitment posters for the divisions. Including this bit from the 13th Division's section, where there's a bit contributed by Yachiru, who seems to have a huge crush on Captain Ukitake (she steals the carp from the Kuchiki mansion and sneaks them into the 13th's carp pond):
Frank talk!! with the 11th division lieutenant, Kusajishi Yachiru
Ukkii? There's always really tasty-looking candy by Ukkii's bedside. And there are reeeally big carp in the pond outside too~ Ehehe, I brought them there.
Note that she's eating Ukitake's medicine. Which probably explains a lot.

It absolutely does. I love this bit and am going to have to look through the rest of what they've got.

:D I also love the translator's note on how awful Kira's haiku is in his profile. XD

You know, that doesn't surprise me either.

He won some sort of haiku prize in his past.

That doesn't speak well for the general level of poetics in Soul Society.

They're fighters, not lovers.

Don't let Captain Kyouraku hear you say that. (He sponsors regular all-female drinking parties.) :D

Obviously the exception to the rule.

Also, I was totally waiting for that.

Does Ken-chan know his daughter has a crush on Captain Ukitake?!

Perhaps not: she apparently runs off and annoys the rest of the Seireitei does all her other stuff during his afternoon nap. XD

I also love the bit about how Ken-chan's brief stint with hair treatment wrecked his spiky hair. XD

"He definitely hates Sasikibe a little." *snrk*

So ... she's taking opiates. She seems a bit ... hyper for a hop-head. Which begs the question: how bad is she when she's clean and sober?

Brr.

The world is probably better off not knowing.
