Description: 
Kurosaki Ichigo is a teenager gifted with the ability to see spirits. His life is drastically changed by the sudden appearance of a Shinigami—one who governs the flow of souls between the human world and the afterlife—named Kuchiki Rukia, who arrives in search of a Hollow, a dangerous lost soul. When Rukia is severely wounded defending Ichigo from the Hollow, she attempts to transfer half of her Reiatsu {Spiritual Pressure} energy to Ichigo so that he can defeat the Hollow. However, Ichigo takes almost all of her reiatsu, transforming into a Shinigami and allowing him to defeat the Hollow with ease. With her powers diminished, Rukia is left stranded in the human world until she can recover her strength. In the meantime, Ichigo must take over Rukia's role as a Shinigami, battling Hollows and guiding souls to the afterlife realm known as the Soul Society {Sōru Sosaeti}. As time passes and Rukia has yet to return to the Soul Society, her Shihigami superiors learn about her whereabouts and actions and sentence her to death for performing the illegal act of transferring her powers. Although Ichigo is unable to stop Rukia's departure to the Soul Society, Ichigo resolves to rescue her with the aid of several of his spiritually aware classmates, Orihime Inoue, Yasutora Sado, and Ishida Uryū, and the black cat Shihōin Yoruichi and Urahara Kisuke. Once at the Soul Society, Ichigo and company battle against the elites of the Shinigami military and strive to reach Rukia before her execution. It is revealed that Rukia's execution and Ichigo's rescue attempt both had been manipulated by a high-ranking Shinigami, Aizen Sōsuke, who was previously believed to have been murdered, as part of a far-reaching plot to take control of the Soul Society. Aizen betrays his fellow Shinigami and allies himself with the strongest of the Hollows, the Espadas. Aizen thus becomes the main antagonist of the series, and the Shinigami form an alliance with Ichigo. At this point, Bleach chronicles the war between the Shinigami, the Espadas, and Aizen himselft. After each of the involved's eventual defeats, Ichigo undergoes intense training with his father Ishin. As Aizen is weakened, a spell that Urahara had previously hidden within him activates and seals him, thus ending the conflict and leaving the Soul Society to imprison him. As a result of using a technique called the Final Getsuga Tensho to defeat Aizen, Ichigo steadily loses his Shinigami powers and start to become an ordinary human once again.
