Summary:
Kurosaki Ichigo is a 15 year old boy that has an ability to see ghosts/spirits. Because of his ability, he is able to meet a female death god (a.k.a Shinigami) named Kuchiki Rukia. To save his family and friends from unwanted soul-eating spirits (Hollows), Rukia transfers her Shinigami powers to Ichigo. As Rukia takes on a human shell, together they solve mysteries involving spirits and hollows until from the spirit world comes 2 other shinigamis explaining that it is illegal to transfer Shinigami powers to humans and Rukia exceeded the time limit to stay in the human world. After they sentence her death for breaking the laws, Ichigo snaps and swears to everyone he will retrieve Rukia by breaking into the spirit world.
Bleach is a wonderful story with absolutely relatable and lovable characters. The main character, Ichigo, is very likable (he isn't a goofball or a comic relief character). He's a typical teenager with a "cool" personality and a strong will to protect those he cares about.
Bleach has a perfect mixture of emotion, drama, battles, and comedy so i recommend it to anyone who likes battle or fantasy anime.
The only thing negative i can say about Bleach is that he fillers can be a drag but that is true with every long running anime and can be skipped completely anyway.
