Renji Abarai  is a fictional character and major figure in the anime and manga series Bleach created by Tite Kubo.  He is the lieutenant of the 6th Division in the Gotei 13 under captain Byakuya Kuchiki.

Renji is about as eccentric as any other Soul Reaper.  He varies from smug and cocky in his first appearances to depressed after his major defeats, but shows himself to be an incredibly serious and determined fighter when confronted with an actual challenge.  Willing to fight, kill, and die for whatever he believes in, Renji is a dangerous man to those who stand in his way.  He's also the only Vice Captain to achieve bankai.  Many Bleach fans speculated that he's the most powerful Vice Captain and non-captain position in the Soul Society, but this is often refuted due to the fact that he has lost a greater number of fights than he has won.  He is similar to Ichigo Kurosaki in many aspects, and the two are mistaken for brothers in the anime's Bount arc.  Ichigo claims they are cousins to keep things simple, allowing many hilarious situations to occur later, including comments over their unusually colored hair.  A continuing gag in the series is Renji's nickname, red pineapple, referring to his crimson hair kept in a pineapple top-like ponytail.  During a filler arc before the invasion of Las Noches, Renji wears a shirt with 'Red Pineapple' printed on the front, supposedly bought by Ichigo Kurosaki as a joke.  He's even referred as "Aka Pine" during the Shinigami Cup segments.

Renji's zanpakuto is Zabimaru (roughly "snake tail").  Zabimaru is a nue (a baboon with a snake tail), hence his name.  Zabimaru's spirit is portrayed as battle-loving and proud, similar in personality to Renji.  Both the snake and baboon are capable of speaking, though the baboon is usually the more dominant one.  In Zabimaru's "true form," the baboon takes the form of a woman and the snake becomes a child.

Zabimaru's shikai command is "Roar" (hoero), or "howl" in other English translations.  In such state, it transforms into a segmented blade with a pick-like protrusion on each segment.  The segments are connected by a stretchable thread, making Zabimaru more useful as a whip than an actual sword.  While Zabimaru can be stretched to incredible lengths in its whip form, Renji has a limit of three consecutive attacks before having to bring the segments of Zabimaru back together for recovery.  Renji can also use his spiritual power to separate the segments and surround an opponent with them, allowing him to execute a one-shot omnidirectional attack called higa zekko ("bite of a baboon's broken fang").

Zabimaru's bankai is Hihio Zabimaru ("baboon king snake tail") and transforms Zabimaru into a massive version of its shikai form resembling a skeletal snake.  Unlike its shikai, Zabimaru's segments are held together by Renji's spiritual power, allowing him to separate and reattach them at will.  Even if a segment is damaged, Renji can simply detach it and reform Zabimaru.  Zabimaru itself, in bankai form, does not literally "cut", Renji usually catches his opponent with the snake-head of his weapon and smashes his opponent into the ground with it.  Zabimaru also gains a special technique known as hikotsu taiho ("baboon bone cannon") after Renji becomes more adept with using his bankai.  The technique fires a dense blast of spiritual energy from Zabimaru's mouth.  He can also use a much more powerful higa zekko, where all the segments detach and sharpen using spiritual energy.
