Sōsuke Aizen

Sōsuke Aizen is one of the main antagonists of the Bleach series. He appeared in the 154th episode of Death Battle, Madara VS Aizen, where he fought against Madara Uchiha from the Naruto series.
==History==
Little is known about the true origins of Sōsuke Aizen, but for centuries, he served under the Fifth Division of Soul Society's Gotei 13, where he enacted insidious experiments on many of his fellow captains. After faking his death, his true nature was laid bare. Aizen sought to overthrow the Soul King and throw the very balance of the living and the dead into complete and utter turmoil. If not for Ichigo Kurosaki, he could well have succeeded. After waging war against Soul Society with an army of Arrancar, Aizen was defeated by Ichigo and was then imprisoned for his crimes. But even imprisonment would not slow down Aizen's scheming and strategic mind, even when he was briefly released to fight against an evil greater than him.
