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.

This is just one of those animes that blows the competition away! Admittedly, when I first began to watch it, I was a little skeptical, but by Eps 5 there was no going back. Filled with memorable characters on both ends, fantastic dialogue, and story this anime fits the bill for just about any anime watcher. It covers all potential audiences, without loosing itself in one aspect or the other. Action scenes are heaven, the romance is perfectly mixed in, with the perfect amount of drama to keep you on the edge of your seat. Of the animes out there, one of the few that has made me impatient for the next installment and sad that we might be drawing near its end. Worth the money to buy and the time to download. In my opinion, a must have for any anime collection.
