Wholes are normal spirits, but the spirits that become Hollows are corrupted souls that must feed on the souls of the living (kind of like spiritual vampires). When humans die, their souls become Wholes or Hollows. In the first 19 volumes, there are three main groups of characters, humans, the Shingami, and the Quincies. I'm 19 volumes in, and while there's plenty of action, it's the character development I'm hooked to.

I immediately started picking up the manga and planning a costume for Ichigo. It was a fansub (this was before it was airing on Adult Swim), so the translation wasn't great, but I fell in love with the characters and mythology of the series. At least, that was the plan.īefore I picked up the manga, I saw the first four episodes of the anime at Stellarcon '06.

All of this is pretty normal for Ichigo, but then he meets Rukia Kuchiki, a Shinigami (Death God) and member of the mysterious Soul Society.
