bleaching it’s one of those long-lived series that has allowed us to really get to know the protagonists since the author has accompanied us in their growth. Ichigo Kurosaki is the hero of Tite Kubo’s manga, a surrogate shinigami with incredible talent but who has a rather strange job to make ends meet.

The story of Ichigo, as well as some background information about his past, has fascinated millions of fans and continues to do so today, thanks to the new season of the anime adapting the saga of the Thousand Years’ War. In honor of his character, who recently made a comeback in the new episodes, we offer you three oddities that you might not know about the iconic protagonist:

  • The person Ichigo respects the most and who he has modeled himself on is William Shakespeare;
  • She attended university, where she studied English literature;
  • During the Fullbring saga, Ichigo also carried an English book;

This passion for English later turned into a profession he works as a freelance translator only from that language into Japanese. The same Tite Kubo He is an ardent enthusiast of the subject as many chapters of his manga are titled in English. And you, on the other hand, what do you think of these curiosities, did you remember them? Let us know in a comment below, but not before you’ve watched Kubo Sensei’s favorite action scene.
