Part of the well-known 'Big Three' manga and anime series, Bleach is perfect for all readers aged 12+ who love graphic novels and comic books, or for readers who would like to get into manga for the first time.
Ichigo Kurosaki is your ordinary high-school student when he meets Rukia Kuchiki, whose powers are fully and accidentally transferred to him. So he becomes a Soul Reaper, changing his life forever. He now must protect humans from the Hollows, evil soul-stealing spirits, and guide lost souls to safety and peace, to the Soul Society. Ichigo will not only find himself facing a world where Soul Reapers are much more than they seem, but he will also embark upon a journey of self-discovery, change and finding true friendship.
