Rankings and Requests
Here the ranks and military structure of the group will be outlined. For Shinigami, your seating will be based off your strength and skill level compared to other members of your division, though Captains will have the ultimate say of where you rank in their squad. Arrancar will decide their Espada numeros based off where they fall against one another in terms of power, and must appoint their own Lorde. Finally, Quincy must appoint their own Emperor, who is responsible for assigning letters to Sternritter.
Gotei 13 –– (護廷十三隊, Goteijūsantai; lit. "13 Division Imperial Guards", or 13 Court Guard Squads)
The primary military branch of Soul Society and the main military organization most Shinigami join after leaving the Shin'ō Academy. The Gotei 13 does not normally operate as a cohesive unit. The command of the divisions are generally left to the discretion of its particular captain, who commonly runs it whatever way they see fit, allowing for the change of a division's traditional duties to an entirely new set and even the creation of a separate institution connected to the division. The Gotei 13's main duty is to defend the Seireitei, but they are allocated districts in Rukongai to defend. In addition to these duties, Shinigami have to deal with the business of being assigned to the Human World.
First Division –– (一番隊, Iichiban-tai; "Squad 1")
The First Division is ranked highest among the 13 Divisions. Even subordinate members of the First Division are considered model Shinigami. Emergencies must be dealt with swiftly; quick decisions and quick actions are essential. The division is able to ascertain a situation and mobilize quickly even before an order is issued. That is the true value of the First Division.

The 3rd Division originally had no special duties but has changed over the past few centuries. Due to the various incidents and conflicts regarding not only the Arrancar but the Quincy as well, much emphasis has been placed on properly honing soldiers to serve the Seireitei. The 3rd Division were entrusted with overseeing the general over all instructions of students enrolled in the Shin'ō Academy (真央霊術院, Shinōreijutsuin, Spiritual Arts Academy). Due to this many of the Squad members place much emphasis on being well rounded in the four major Shinigami combat forms, and also assist in the practical training exercises in the World of the Living to ensure the students’ safety.

The 5th Division has been directly linked to the Kidō Corps, with the Captain simultaneously holding the titles Kidō Corps Commander and Grand Kidō Chief while the Vice Captain is generally the Vice Kidō Chief. As such the monitoring and operations of the Senkaimon between the human world and Soul Society, releasing the Sōkyoku seal during executions, studying and discovering new Kidō as well as monitoring and maintaining the barriers of the Seireitei all fall under the duties of the 5th Division.

Eighth Division –– (八番隊, Hachibantai; "Squad 8")
In the past, the 8th Division originally had no special tasks or duties. Since the invasion of the Quincy centuries ago emphasis was placed on a need for those capable of repairing and reforging Zanpakutō (斬魄刀, Soul-Cutter Sword; Viz "Soul Slayer"). As such, the Soul Society studied the forging methods of Ōetsu Nimaiya (二枚屋 王悦, Nimaiya Ōetsu) in order to replicate his process. A special forge was constructed within the division’s barracks for smelting and forging. The Division is tasked with not only repairing the broken or damaged Zanpakutō for the entire soul society, but also forging other weapons, armours and equipment for the Gotei 13. The Division members also maintain and help distribute the Asauchi (浅打, Shallow Hit) to the Shinigami in training, it is currently unknown if any member holds the capability of repairing or reforging a damaged or broken Bankai.

As such, it is common practice for members to be carrying their Zanpakutō at all times. The division's doctrine of dominating in battle is what appeals to its members; they believe that fighting is what makes life worth living. This is what separates the 11th Division from the others and makes them the strongest division. Everyone in the 11th Division are highly skilled in fighting. They believe if they are going to die anyway, they have to go down fighting gloriously.

Their immense amount of power and leadership status among the Arrancar also grants each Espada the authority to exert command over the other forces within Las Noches: the Números, the Exequias, and their own Fracción, chosen by them from the Números. Similar to the power gap between captains and lieutenants in the Gotei 13, the strength of the Espada far surpasses that of the average Número.
God-King –– (神王, Shin'ō )
The God-King of Hueco Mundo is the lord of all Arrancar and the ruler of Los Noches. Referred to by their subordinates as “Your Majesty” or “My Lord”, the God-king is the single authority over all Hollow-kind, and the commander of the Espada.
