Ichigo Kurosaki has always been able to see ghosts,
but this ability doesn't change his life nearly as much as his close encounter
with Rukia Kuchiki, a Soul Reaper and member of the mysterious Soul Society.
While fighting a Hollow, an evil spirit that preys on humans who display psychic
energy, Rukia attempts to lend Ichigo some of her powers so that he can save his
family; but much to her surprise, Ichigo absorbs every last drop of her energy.
Now a full-fledged Soul Reaper himself, Ichigo quickly learns that the world he
inhabits is one full of dangerous spirits and, along with Rukia--who is slowly
regaining her powers--it's Ichigo's job to protect the innocent from Hollows and
help the spirits themselves find peace.
For
teen audiences.
Part-time student, full-time Soul Reaper, Ichigo is one of the chosen few guardians of the afterlife.
