Modèle:Redirect Modèle:Infobox animanga/Header Modèle:Infobox animanga/Manga Modèle:Infobox animanga/Anime Modèle:Infobox animanga/Other Modèle:Infobox animanga/Footer Modèle:Nihongo is an ongoing manga series written and illustrated by manga artist Tite Kubo that has appeared in Weekly Shonen Jump magazine since August 2001.

Bleach follows the adventures of Ichigo Kurosaki, a high school student with the ability to see ghosts, and Rukia Kuchiki, a shinigami (Soul Reaper or, literally, "death god"). The early parts of the story focus mainly on the characters. As events unfold, the story begins to delve deeper into the world of these gods of death.

The manga series has been adapted into an animated television series, two OVAs, two animated feature films, a rock musical, numerous video games and a TCG (Trading Card Game). Compilation volumes of the manga have sold over 40 million copies in Japan, and have reached the top of manga sales charts in the United States. The manga received the Shogakukan Manga Award in 2005, and the anime has been nominated for several American Anime Awards.

Ichigo facing an attacking hollow, Fishbone D.

The story opens with the sudden appearance of the shinigami Rukia Kuchiki in Ichigo Kurosaki's bedroom. She is surprised at his ability to see her, but their resulting conversation is interrupted by the appearance of a hollow, an evil spirit. After Rukia is severely wounded while trying to protect Ichigo, she intends to transfer half her powers to Ichigo, hoping to give him the opportunity to face the hollow on equal footing. Ichigo unintentionally absorbs almost all her powers instead, allowing him to defeat the hollow with ease.

The next day, Rukia appears in Ichigo's classroom as a transfer student. Much to his surprise, she appears to be a normal human. She theorizes that it was the unusual strength of Ichigo's spirit that caused him to absorb almost all her powers, thus leaving her stranded in the human world. Rukia has transferred herself into a gigai — an artificial human body — while waiting to recover her abilities. In the meantime, Ichigo must take over her job as a shinigami, battling hollows and guiding lost souls to Soul Society.

Characters

All Bleach characters are "souls". Living humans contain souls within their bodies, while disembodied souls, or spirits, have a form composed of particles of spiritual energy called Modèle:Nihongo, which otherwise mimics human anatomy, aside from slowed aging. This form encompasses all of the spirit's being; there is no distinction between spirit and body. There are a variety of different types of spirits in Bleach, each with a different visual theme and approach to combat.

In addition to being a world of several species with supernatural ability, Bleach also has a great variety of characters, personalities, as well as power. At the beginning, the story focused largely on Ichigo and his beginnings as a soul reaper in his hometown of Karakura. Later on, the story centered around not only on Ichigo and his friends, but also a myriad of shinigami. Unlike the modern description of a "death god," the shinigami in Bleach have very eccentric characters with such variety that are only matched on how each of them look. Most of them play significant roles in Ichigo's quest to protect his loved ones as well as providing motives for Ichigo's increasing power to truly be his namesake; "the one who protects."

Main characters

Modèle:See also

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: The primary protagonist of Bleach, orange haired high school junior Ichigo Kurosaki is forced to become a substitute shinigami after unwittingly absorbing most of Rukia's powers. His cynical nature at first makes him ill-disposed towards the duty, but with the passage of time he comes to accept and welcome it, recognizing that even if he is not able to save everyone, he can at least use his skills to protect those close to him.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: Rukia Kuchiki is a cool-tempered shinigami who was sent on a hollow extermination patrol in Ichigo Kurosaki's hometown. Though her physical appearance is that of a teenage girl, in reality she is around 150 years old. Rukia is forced to transfer her power to Ichigo and assume a temporary lifestyle as a regular human. She registers at the local high school and takes up residence in Ichigo's closet, while teaching him how to be a substitute shinigami in her place.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: Orihime Inoue is a long-time classmate of Ichigo, closely linked to him by mutual friend Tatsuki Arisawa. She is effectively an orphan, as she and her elder brother Sora ran away from their abusive home at a young age, and her brother later died. Though initially devoid of spiritual powers, she begins to develop spiritual awareness and later obtains one of the most powerful healing abilities in the Bleach universe, able to completely restore a body to its previous state regardless of how severely it is wounded.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: Yasutora Sado, better known as Chad, is one of Ichigo's few friends at school. He is a biracial (Japanese/Mexican) student who towers over his classmates. Despite his imposing appearance he is quite meek, and refuses to fight unless it is for the sake of another. He does not have awareness of ghosts at first, but can still touch hollows, and eventually is able to see them when he witnesses a group of children being attacked by a hollow. He discovers a unique ability that strengthens and armors his arms, enabling him to fight hollows.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: A mysterious and cheery man, Kisuke Urahara runs the Urahara Shop, a candy store that also sells supernatural items to shinigami. Despite his sanguine nature he is one of the most significant figures in the Bleach universe, bearing immense knowledge of the spiritual realms which he uses to mastermind the operations of the protagonists.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: Though on the surface nothing more than the solitary class genius, Uryū Ishida is actually a Quincy, descendant of a line of priest-like hollow-hunting archers. He bears a deep grudge against all shinigami, including Ichigo, but comes to view Ichigo differently over time, eventually becoming an ally and friendly rival.

Modèle:Nihongo Modèle:Anime voices: Renji Abarai is an elite shinigami bearing the rank of 6th Division lieutenant, making him second in command of a sub-branch of the shinigami armed forces. Although first introduced as a deadly enemy, he has conflicting loyalties between his duties and Rukia, whom he grew up with. A brash and driven man, he holds both a deep respect and animosity towards his immediate superior, 6th Division captain Byakuya Kuchiki.

Character types

Human: The humans of Bleach are much like the residents of modern Japan, and most cannot see or sense disembodied spirits in any way. Spirits can, however, inhabit artificial human bodies called gigai which are visible to ordinary humans. One in 50,000 humans is a medium with some awareness of nearby spirits, but only a third of these are able to see them clearly, and only the strongest of mediums are able to speak with or touch spirits.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 1. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 1, 9. ISBN 4-08-873213-8</ref> Certain unique humans naturally have both the power to sense and the strength to fight with spirits. Ordinary humans can gain the ability to interact with spirits by spending time around a large source of spirit energy.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 44, 19. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref>

Plus: Benign spirits in Bleach are known as pluses (wholes in the official English editions). A plus is the spirit of a person who has died.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls">Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 1. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 1, 19-21. ISBN 4-08-873213-8</ref> A chain, known as the Modèle:Nihongo, protrudes from the chest and binds the plus to a location, object or person that they felt close to in life.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji">Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 4. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 28, 10-12. ISBN 4-08-873310-X</ref> The soul can move about freely if the chain is broken, but this also causes the chain to corrode.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji"/> Normally, pluses are sent to Soul Society by shinigami in a ritual called Modèle:Nihongo before this corrosion becomes significant. If the Chain of Fate is corroded entirely before a soul burial can be performed, a hole will form in the chest of the soul where the chain was once anchored. Such souls are driven mad and become evil spirits known as hollows.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji"/> If the Chain of Fate is torn out deliberately, this also leads to spiritual degradation.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 4. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 28, 18. ISBN 4-08-873310-X</ref>

Shinigami: Shinigami (Soul Reapers in the official English editions, Death Gods in most subtitled versions) are the psychopomps of Bleach. They are souls with inner spiritual power, recruited from the ranks of the residents and nobility of Soul Society. Like all spirits, they cannot be detected by normal humans. Shinigami use their zanpakutō, supernatural swords that are the manifestation of their owners' power, to perform soul burials on pluses.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls" /> Shinigami also use zanpakutō and magic known as kidō to fight their archrivals, the hollows.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls" /> A group of shinigami known as the vizard have obtained hollow powers, gaining removable masks and access to certain hollow abilities.

Hollow: The hollows are the major antagonists of Bleach. They are evil spirits who reside in Hueco Mundo but travel to the living world to feed on the souls of the living and dead alike. Like shinigami, hollows are made of spiritual matter and cannot be detected by ordinary humans. While the majority of hollows can be overcome by the average shinigami, there are some which surpass even the most elite shinigami in strength. All normal hollows wear white masks,<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji" /> but a small group of hollows have broken them, becoming arrancar. By shattering their masks, these hollows regain the ability to reason, sometimes obtain a humanoid form, and gain access to shinigami powers.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2006). Bleach, Volume 21. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 187, 14. ISBN 4-08-874027-0</ref>

Image:Quincy (Bleach).jpg

Quincy with their distinctive bows.

Quincy: The Quincy are a clan of spiritually aware humans who once fought against the hollows, using bows composed of spiritual energy to slay them.<ref name="Urahara explains: Quincy">Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 5. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 36, 12-14. ISBN 4-08-873335-5</ref> As opposed to shinigami, Quincy absorb and channel energy from their surroundings to fight.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 49, 2. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref> Unlike the shinigami method of killing hollows which allows the hollow to enter Soul Society, the Quincy technique simply destroys the hollow's soul entirely.<ref name="Urahara explains: Quincy"/> This method has the propensity to shatter the balance of the universe, because when souls are destroyed, the number of souls entering and leaving Soul Society cannot remain equal.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 46, 1-6. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref> This issue prompted the shinigami to conduct a campaign to exterminate the Quincy about 200 years before the main storyline.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 46, 9. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref> At least two Quincy still remain.

Artificial soul: Artificial souls (Also known as Modified Souls, or Mod Souls) are a type of soul mass-produced by the shinigami.<ref name="Rukia explains: artificial souls">Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 2. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 13, 14-16. ISBN 4-08-873237-5</ref> Issued in pill form, they are used to force shinigami out of their gigai during protracted stays in the living world, and also to evict pluses that refuse to leave their bodies after death.<ref name="Rukia explains: artificial souls"/> They come with a pre-programmed personality that animates the host body until the owner returns.<ref name="Rukia explains: artificial souls"/> In addition to the mundane versions, a series of experimental souls authorized and created by shinigami researchers exists.<ref name="Rukia explains: modsouls">Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 2. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 15, 9-10. ISBN 4-08-873237-5</ref> Known as modified souls, these were meant to hunt hollows by possessing soulless human bodies and supercharging a particular aspect of them (for example, strength or speed).<ref name="Rukia explains: modsouls"/> The shinigami decided to scrap the project due to the inhumanity of forcing dead bodies to fight, and ordered the destruction of all modified souls.<ref name="Rukia explains: modsouls"/> Only one modified soul exists in the manga (Kon), but there are three more such characters in the anime.
Bount: Exclusive to the anime, the Bounts are a clan of human beings with high spiritual energy and special powers. They were accidentally created by shinigami scientists looking for a way to create eternal life. Bounts consume the souls of human beings to survive; theoretically, a Bount could live forever by doing so. Although the Bounts have a strict rule to consume only the souls of the dead, the final group of Bounts chose to drain souls from living humans in order to become more powerful. Each Bount uses a "doll" in combat, a type of familiar possessing its own special abilities. Every doll is unique and is a manifestation of the user's power. If the doll is destroyed, its owner is destroyed as well.

Setting

Image:Soul Society.jpg

A view of Seireitei in Soul Society.

The planes of existence in the Bleach universe broadly correspond to the life and afterlife of human belief systems. The living humans of Bleach reside in a world resembling present-day Japan; buried souls live in a kind of Heaven called Soul Society; evil souls are sent to Hell. Once in Soul Society, a spirit is able to live longer than humans in the living world, with many aging into the thousands of years. Once a spirit dies in Soul Society, its soul is sent back to the living world and reborn as a new human. This provides the two worlds with balance.

Human world: The human world of Bleach is modern Japan, specifically, a fictional area of Western Tokyo called Karakura Town.<ref name="Karakura">Kubo, Tite (2006). Bleach Official Character Book SOULs. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, 31. ISBN 4-08-874079-3</ref> In this world, Ichigo attends school and fights hollows. Places of note are the high school, the Urahara Shop, the river where Ichigo's mother was killed, the cemetery, Karakura Hospital, and Ichigo and Orihime's homes.
Soul Society: Soul Society consists of an expansive walled city Modèle:Nihongo, in the center and four regions, each with 80 districts, outside of it. The districts outside of the Seireitei are known as the Modèle:Nihongo and are the place where non-shinigami and commoners live.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2003). Bleach, Volume 9. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 71, 18. ISBN 4-08-873495-5</ref> The district number of the Rukongai (ranging from 1 to 80) also describes its conditions.<ref name="Renji flashback">Kubo, Tite (2003). Bleach, Volume 11. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 98, 5. ISBN 4-08-873555-2</ref> District 1, the closest to Seireitei, is peaceful and orderly, while the most distant District 80 is filled with criminals and has the poorest living conditions.<ref name="Renji flashback"/> A king resides in another realm within Soul Society. <ref>Kubo, Tite (2006). Bleach, Volume 25. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 223, 07. ISBN 4-08-874289-3</ref>
Hueco Mundo: Hueco Mundo is the area between the human world and Soul Society. Literally meaning "hollow world" (the word hueco can also mean "hole"), it is where hollows reside, and are undetectable as long as they remain inside. Entrances to Hueco Mundo are created by ripping the dimensional fabric between the two worlds. Hueco Mundo is divided into three sections. On the surface is a desert-like realm, held in perpetual nighttime and home to the strongest hollows and the Las Noches palace. Directly underneath is the Forest of Menos, home to general menos and almost all the Gillian. A third layer, below the Forest of Menos, is explored in the anime, but is only mentioned in the manga. <ref>Bleach Episode 147</ref>

Image:Gates of hell bleach.png

Gates of Hell

Hell: Hell is the destination of those who committed unforgivably evil acts during their lives in the human world. When a hollow whose mortal soul is too wicked to enter Soul Society is slain by a zanpakutō, the gates of hell (giant doors held by skeletons) appear and begin to open. A giant, laughing spiritual being with a blade spears the wicked spirit and drags it down into hell.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). Bleach, Volume 2. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 12, 8-13. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref>

Bleach characters move from world to world by several means. Shinigami open passages between worlds by means of their zanpakutō. Butterflies created during soul burial, called Modèle:Nihongo, make these routes safe. Human souls usually cross between planes only through birth into the human world or soul burial by shinigami. Living humans can also use special portals to move between worlds, but this is dangerous. While hollows are portrayed as able to move between planes at will by opening rifts in space, they usually remain in Hueco Mundo due to the risk of discovery in Soul Society or the human world. Encounters between characters crossing realms are a driving plot force in Bleach.

+==Introduction==
+{{see also|List of Bleach chapters|List of Bleach episodes}}
+[[Image:Hollow2.jpg|left|thumb|Ichigo facing an attacking hollow, Fishbone D.]]
+The story opens with the sudden appearance of the [[Shinigami (Bleach)|''shinigami'']] Rukia Kuchiki in Ichigo Kurosaki's bedroom. She is surprised at his ability to see her, but their resulting conversation is interrupted by the appearance of a [[Hollow (Bleach)|hollow]], an evil spirit. After Rukia is severely wounded while trying to protect Ichigo, she intends to transfer half her powers to Ichigo, hoping to give him the opportunity to face the hollow on equal footing. Ichigo unintentionally absorbs almost all her powers instead, allowing him to defeat the hollow with ease.
-Adapté en [[Anime|dessin animé]] par le [[Studio Pierrot]], la [[série télévisée]] est en cours de diffusion sur [[TV Tōkyō]] les mercredis à 19h30 depuis le [[5 octobre]] [[2004]]. Pour le moment (15 décembre 07), 152 épisodes ont été produits ainsi que deux OAV et un film. La série ainsi que es produits dérivés sont licenciés en Europe, Amérique et Océanie par [[Viz Media B.V.]] En France, c'est [[Kaze]] qui s'occupe de la série TV dont le premier DVD contenant les 4 premiers épisodes est déjà sorti (22 août 2007). Depuis le samedi 1{{er}} septembre 2007, les 52 premiers épisodes sont diffusés sur la chaîne musicale [[MCM (chaîne musicale)|MCM]]<ref> Voir l'annonce sur le site web de MCM : [http://www.mcm.net/programmes/evenements-mcm/focus/543/] </ref>.
+The next day, Rukia appears in Ichigo's classroom as a transfer student. Much to his surprise, she appears to be a normal human. She theorizes that it was the unusual strength of Ichigo's spirit that caused him to absorb almost all her powers, thus leaving her stranded in the human world. Rukia has transferred herself into a [[Shinigami (Bleach)#Gigai|''gigai'']] — an artificial human body — while waiting to recover her abilities. In the meantime, Ichigo must take over her job as a ''shinigami'', battling hollows and guiding lost souls to Soul Society.
-== Histoire ==
+==Characters==
-'''''Note''''' : ''Les noms de personnages sont écrits selon la norme française (prénom suivi du nom de famille) et non selon la norme japonaise (nom de famille suivi du prénom).''
+All ''Bleach'' characters are "souls". Living humans contain souls within their bodies, while disembodied souls, or spirits, have a form composed of particles of spiritual energy called {{nihongo|ectoplasm|霊子|reishi}}, which otherwise mimics human anatomy, aside from slowed aging. This form encompasses all of the spirit's being; there is no distinction between spirit and body. There are a variety of different types of spirits in ''Bleach'', each with a different visual theme and approach to combat.
-=== Le commencement ===
+In addition to being a world of several species with supernatural ability, ''Bleach'' also has a great variety of characters, personalities, as well as power. At the beginning, the story focused largely on Ichigo and his beginnings as a soul reaper in his hometown of Karakura. Later on, the story centered around not only on Ichigo and his friends, but also a myriad of ''shinigami''. Unlike the modern description of a "death god," the ''shinigami'' in ''Bleach'' have very eccentric characters with such variety that are only matched on how each of them look. Most of them play significant roles in Ichigo's quest to protect his loved ones as well as providing motives for Ichigo's increasing power to truly be his namesake; "the one who protects."
-Ichigo Kurosaki est un lycéen de 15 ans, qui aurait pu être comme les autres, s'il ne voyait pas les âmes errantes bloquées sur terre. Sa vie va être bouleversée par la rencontre d'un ''[[shinigami]]'' ({{lang|ja|[[wikt:死神|死神]]}}, littéralement « dieu de la mort »), [[Gotei 13|Rukia Kuchiki]], et la venue d'un monstre appelé ''[[hollow]]'', apparu en voulant le dévorer. Ichigo n'a alors plus que deux choix : devenir un Shinigami afin de sauver sa famille ou alors mourir avec celle-ci.  Seulement, pour devenir Shinigami, Ichigo doit emprunter une partie du pouvoir de Rukia, ce qui tourne un peu mal car ce dernier lui en aspire la totalité.  Après avoir vaincu facilement le Hollow,  Ichigo n'a alors plus d'autre choix que de remplacer Rukia dans son travail jusqu'à que celle-ci récupère la totalité de ses pouvoirs.
-=== L'univers Bleach ===
+===Main characters===
-L'univers de Bleach se divise en trois parties majeures : la banlieue de Karakura qui semble se situer aux alentours de [[Tōkyō]], dans notre monde, la ''[[Soul Society]]'' (de l'anglais : société des âmes), c'est-à-dire l'au-delà, et enfin le [[Hueco Mondo]] (de l'espagnol : le monde creux), là où vivent les ''Hollows''.

+;{{Nihongo|[[Ichigo Kurosaki ]]|黒崎 一護|Kurosaki Ichigo}} <small>{{anime voices|Masakazu Morita|Johnny Yong Bosch}}</small>
+:The primary protagonist of ''Bleach'', orange haired high school junior Ichigo Kurosaki is forced to become a substitute ''[[shinigami (Bleach)|shinigami]]'' after unwittingly absorbing most of Rukia's powers. His cynical nature at first makes him ill-disposed towards the duty, but with the passage of time he comes to accept and welcome it, recognizing that even if he is not able to save everyone, he can at least use his skills to protect those close to him.
-{{Article détaillé|Soul Society}}
+;{{Nihongo|[[Rukia Kuchiki]]|朽木 ルキア|Kuchiki Rukia}} <small>{{anime voices|Fumiko Orikasa|Michelle Ruff}}</small>
+:Rukia Kuchiki is a cool-tempered ''shinigami'' who was sent on a hollow extermination patrol in [[Ichigo Kurosaki]]'s hometown. Though her physical appearance is that of a teenage girl, in reality she is around 150 years old. Rukia is forced to transfer her power to Ichigo and assume a temporary lifestyle as a regular human. She registers at the local high school and takes up residence in Ichigo's closet, while teaching him how to be a substitute ''shinigami'' in her place.
-=== Les arcs ===
+;{{Nihongo|[[Orihime Inoue]]|井上 織姫|Inoue Orihime}} <small>{{anime voices|Yuki Matsuoka|Stephanie Sheh}}</small>
-'''''Attention, ceci peut dévoiler des moments clefs de l'intrigue!'''''
+:Orihime Inoue is a long-time classmate of Ichigo, closely linked to him by mutual friend [[List of Bleach characters#Karakura High School|Tatsuki Arisawa]]. She is effectively an orphan, as she and her elder brother Sora ran away from their abusive home at a young age, and her brother later died. Though initially devoid of spiritual powers, she begins to develop spiritual awareness and later obtains one of the most powerful healing abilities in the ''Bleach'' universe, able to completely restore a body to its previous state regardless of how severely it is wounded.
-L'histoire de Bleach tourne principalement autour du personnage d'Ichigo, avec qui on découvre l'univers des ''[[shinigami]]'', sur Terre et à la ''Soul Society''.
+;{{Nihongo|[[Yasutora Sado|Yasutora "Chad" Sado]]|茶渡 泰虎|Sado Yasutora}} <small>{{anime voices|Hiroki Yasumoto|Jamieson Price}}</small>
+:Yasutora Sado, better known as Chad, is one of Ichigo's few friends at school. He is a biracial ([[Japanese people|Japanese]]/[[Mexico|Mexican]]) student who towers over his classmates. Despite his imposing appearance he is quite meek, and refuses to fight unless it is for the sake of another. He does not have awareness of ghosts at first, but can still touch hollows, and eventually is able to see them when he witnesses a group of children being attacked by a hollow. He discovers a unique ability that strengthens and armors his arms, enabling him to fight hollows.
-On peut diviser l'histoire en 3 arcs.
+;{{Nihongo|[[Kisuke Urahara]]|浦原 喜助|Urahara Kisuke}} <small>{{anime voices|Shinichiro Miki|Michael Lindsay}}</small>
+:A mysterious and cheery man, Kisuke Urahara runs the [[Urahara Shop]], a candy store that also sells supernatural items to ''shinigami''. Despite his [[sanguine]] nature he is one of the most significant figures in the ''Bleach'' universe, bearing immense knowledge of the spiritual realms which he uses to mastermind the operations of the protagonists.
-==== Arc Hollows ====
+;{{Nihongo|[[Uryū Ishida]]|石田 雨竜|Ishida Uryū}} <small>{{anime voices|Noriaki Sugiyama|Derek Stephen Prince}}</small>
-Après avoir absorbé les pouvoirs du shinigami Rukia Kuchiki, Ichigo Kurosaki sera obligé de faire son ''travail'', c'est-à-dire d'éliminer tous les Hollows qui apparaissent dans la ville.  Durant cette partie de l'histoire, on rencontre les protagonistes principaux : Inoue Orihime, Uryū Ishida, et Sado Yasutora.  On fait aussi la connaissance de Kisuke Urahara, personnage quelques peu énigmatique ainsi que Shihouin Yoruichi, un chat qui parle.  L'arc se termine lorsque Rukia est enlevée par 2 shinigamis ayant reçu l'ordre de la ramener à la Soul Society.  En effet, celle-ci a dépassé le temps limite de son séjour sur terre et est coupable du crime d'avoir donné son pouvoir à un humain.
+:Though on the surface nothing more than the solitary class genius, Uryū Ishida is actually a [[Quincy (Bleach)|Quincy]], descendant of a line of priest-like hollow-hunting archers. He bears a deep grudge against all ''shinigami'', including Ichigo, but comes to view Ichigo differently over time, eventually becoming an ally and friendly rival.
-==== Arc Soul Society ====
+;{{Nihongo|[[Renji Abarai]]|阿散井 恋次|Abarai Renji}} <small>{{anime voices|Kentarō Itō|Wally Wingert}}</small>
-Ichigo et les autres entrent à la Soul Society accompagnés de Yoruichi pour sauver Rukia Kuchiki.  En effet, celle-ci a été condamnée à la peine de mort pour trahison.  Elle sera tuée par le Soukyoku, un zanpakutoh géant qui détruit complètement le corps du condamné en lui affligeant d'atroces souffrances.  Pour la première fois, on découvre la Soul Society et sa constitution : celle-ci est divisée en 2 parties : Le Rukongai (quartier pauvre), là où vivent les âmes défuntes et le Seireitei, là où vivent les Shinigami.  Le Seireitei est protégé par 13 divisions (Gotei 13) ayant chacune un capitaine et un lieutenant (vice-capitaine).  La Soul Society est dirigée par le Conseil des 46.  On découvre beaucoup de personnages dans cet arc qui deviendront des protagonistes principaux par la suite.  A la Soul Society, les protagonistes devront se battre contre beaucoup de shinigami afin d'atteindre le lieu ou Rukia est enfermée.  Voici une liste des principales étapes de cet arc :
+:Renji Abarai is an elite ''shinigami'' bearing the rank of 6th Division lieutenant, making him second in command of a sub-branch of the ''shinigami'' armed forces. Although first introduced as a deadly enemy, he has conflicting loyalties between his duties and Rukia, whom he grew up with. A brash and driven man, he holds both a deep respect and animosity towards his immediate superior, 6th Division [[Shinigami (Bleach)#Unit Commander|captain]] [[Byakuya Kuchiki]].
-* Ichigo et les autres entrent dans le Rukongai.  Ils doivent vaincre Jidambo, le gardien de la Porte de la Voie Blanche, une des 4 portes permettant d'entrer dans le Seireitei.
+<!-- NOTE TO EDITORS --!
-* Une fois vaincu, Jidambou ouvre la porte à Ichigo qui se fait aussitôt expulser par Gin Ichimaru : capitaine de la troisième division.
+  The ordering and names in this section are the result of a
-* Ichigo et ses amis partent alors à la recherche de kuukaku Shiba, une artificière qui peut les faire passer le mur protecteur de la Seireitei en les expulsant dans les cieux grâce à une énorme cheminée.  Une fois dans le Seireitei, Ichigo et les autres se retrouvent partiellement séparés.

-* Ichigo se bat alors contre Ikkaku Madarame, classé 3{{e}} de la 11{{e}} division, pendant que Ganju se bat contre Yumichika.  Ichigo et Ganju remportent tous deux la bataille.
+  Please DO NOT EDIT this section without prior discussion.
-* Ishida gagne contre Jiroubou Ikkanzaka, classé 4{{e}} de la 7{{e}} division.
+  Main characters are listed here in the ORDER OF THEIR APPEARANCE.
-* Ichigo et Ganju rencontrent Hanatarou, 7{{e}} classé de la 4{{e}} division. Celui-ci leur montre le chemin à prendre pour atteindre le centre du Seireitei.  Hanatarou désire lui aussi sauver Rukia. Il s'est attaché à elle lorsqu'il allait nettoyer sa cellule.
+-->
-* Ichigo se bat contre Renji Abarai, lieutenant de la 6{{e}} division.  Ichigo bat Renji à l'aide de sa nouvelle technique.
-* Aizen Sousuke, capitaine de la 5{{e}} division est retrouvé mort (assassiné).
-* Ichigo se bat contre Zaraki Kenpachi, capitaine de la 11{{e}} division et gagne de peu.
-* Ichigo est soigné par Yoruichi qui lui montre sa véritable forme...
-* Sado est arrêté par Shunsui Kyōraku, capitaine de la 8{{e}} division.
-* Ishida bat Mayuri Korotsuchi, capitaine de la 12{{e}} division, mais perd ses pouvoirs.  Il est ensuite arrêté par Kaname Tousen, capitaine de la 9{{e}} division.
-* Hanatarou et Ganju partent sauver Rukia mais Ganju découvre que Rukia n'est autre que celle qui a tué son frère, l'ancien lieutenant da la 13{{e}} division.  Hanatarou et Ganju sont arrêtés par Byakuya Kuchiki, capitaine de la 6{{e}} division.  Ichigo vient les aider mais il n'a pas le niveau de Byakuya.  Yoruichi le sauve.
-* Ichigo et Renji s'entraînent pour obtenir le BANKAI, la forme ultime du Zanpakutoh.  Renji veut lui aussi sauver Rukia.
-* Zaraki Kenpachi décide d'aider Ichigo.  Il libère ses amis et leur montre le chemin.  Zaraki sa bat alors contre Tousen et gagne facilement, il se bat ensuite contre Sajin Komamura mais celui-ci fuit quand Yamamoto engage le combat contre Ukitake et Kyoraku.
-* Renji se bat contre Byakuya mais il ne fait pas le poids malgré son bankai.
-* Lors de la mise à mort de Rukia, Ichigo apparaît et repousse le Soukyoku qui sera ensuite détruit par les capitaines de la 8{{e}} et 13{{e}} divisions.  Il laisse alors Rukia à Renji pendant qu'il neutralisent les lieutenants de la 1{{re}}, 2{{e}} et 4{{e}} divisions. Il se battra ensuite contre Byakuya et brisera son Zanpakutoh.
-* Pendant ce temps, Soi Fon, capitaine de la 2{{e}} division est vaincue par Yoruichi.
-* Yama, le capitaine-commandant du Gotei 13 part à la poursuite des capitaines de la 8{{e}} et 13{{e}} division.  Il semble entamer le combat, mais celui-ci sera vite abrégé.
-* En effet, pendant tout ce temps, Toushirou Hitsugaya a mené son enquête et a découvert que le conseil des 46 a été exterminé par Aizen et Ichimaru.  Apparemment, ils auraient été assassinés avant même l'arrivée des Ryoka.  Il semblerait donc que l'ordre de tuer Rukia avec le Soukokyu (rituel normalement réservé lors de haute trahison d'un capitaine) ait aussi été donné par Aizen.  Celui-ci désirait en fait détruire totalement le corps de Rukia afin de récupérer le Hougyoku, un objet permettant à un Shinigami d'obtenir des pouvoirs de Hollow et vice-versa, créée par Urahara et scellé à l'intérieur de l'âme de Rukia.  Aizen avait simulé sa mort grâce à la capacité d'hypnotisme de son zanpakutoh.  Il comptait arriver à ses fins sans que personne ne se doute de ce qu'il faisait.  Mais son plan n'a pas bien marché.  En effet, il y eut quelques imprévus :
-# le sauvetage de Rukia.
-# la découverte du conseil des 46 par Hitsugaya.
-# la découverte du "faux corps" d'Aizen par la capitaine de la 4{{e}} division.
-Depuis le début, les capitaines étaient sous hypnose, ce qui empêcha la capitaine de la 4{{e}} division de remarquer tout de suite que le corps n'était pas le vrai.  Ichimaru était complice.  Il se trouve avec Aizen dans le chambre des 46.  Cependant, la capitaine de la 4{{e}} division devine qu'il existe un 3{{e}} traître.  En effet, un aveugle ne peut être hypnotisé par Aizen.  Tousen est donc de mèche avec eux.  Aizen et Ichimaru utilise une technique de téléportation et se retrouve à l'endroit où est le Soukyoku.  la lieutenant de la 4{{e}} division informe les autres de la trahison d'Aizen, ce qui abrège le combat entre le capitaine-commandant et les capitaines des 8{{e}} et 13{{e}} division.
-* Renji et Rukia sont arrêtés par Tousen qui utilise la même technique de téléportation qu'Aizen.
-* Aizen bat Renji et Ichigo en un clin d'oeil.  Il utilise ensuite une technique de secours pour retirer le Hougyoku.  Il bat ensuite Komamura avec une seule technique qu'il prononce sans incantations, preuve de sa puissance.
-* Les autres capitaines et lieutenant arrivent et Aizen doit se retirer avec Ichimaru et Tousen dans le Hueco Mondo grâce au Négation, une technique utilisée par les Menos pour sauver un des leurs.
-* Ichigo et les autres rentrent chez eux.  Rukia, hors de danger, décide de rester à la Soul Society.
-Pendant cet axe, on découvre une nouvelle forme du zanpakutoh :  le bankai.  Tous les capitaines de division le possèdent sauf Zaraki Kenpachi qui ne connait même pas le nom de son zanpakutoh.  Ichigo et Renji parviennent à maîtriser le bankai grâce à la technique utilisée par Kisuke Urahara pour maîtriser le bankai en trois jours.

+<!-- NOTE TO EDITORS --!
+  Please do not add sections pertaining to the vizard and/or arrancar.
+  These groups are discussed in the shinigami and hollows sections.
+-->
+* '''Human''': The humans of ''Bleach'' are much like the residents of modern Japan, and most cannot see or sense disembodied spirits in any way. Spirits can, however, inhabit artificial human bodies called ''gigai'' which are visible to ordinary humans. One in 50,000 humans is a [[Mediumship|medium]] with some awareness of nearby spirits, but only a third of these are able to see them clearly, and only the strongest of mediums are able to speak with or touch spirits.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 1. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 1, 9. ISBN 4-08-873213-8</ref> Certain unique humans naturally have both the power to sense and the strength to fight with spirits. Ordinary humans can gain the ability to interact with spirits by spending time around a large source of spirit energy.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 44, 19. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref>
-==== Arc Hueco Mondo ====
+* '''Plus''': Benign spirits in ''Bleach'' are known as pluses (wholes in the official English editions). A plus is the spirit of a person who has died.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls">Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 1. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 1, 19-21. ISBN 4-08-873213-8</ref> A chain, known as the {{nihongo|Chain of Fate|因果の鎖|inga no kusari}}, protrudes from the chest and binds the plus to a location, object or person that they felt close to in life.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji">Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 4. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 28, 10-12. ISBN 4-08-873310-X</ref> The soul can move about freely if the chain is broken, but this also causes the chain to corrode.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji"/> Normally, pluses are sent to [[Soul Society]] by ''shinigami'' in a ritual called {{nihongo|soul burial|魂葬|konsō}} before this corrosion becomes significant. If the Chain of Fate is corroded entirely before a soul burial can be performed, a hole will form in the chest of the soul where the chain was once anchored. Such souls are driven mad and become evil spirits known as hollows.<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji"/> If the Chain of Fate is torn out deliberately, this also leads to spiritual degradation.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 4. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 28, 18. ISBN 4-08-873310-X</ref>
-Ichigo et ses amis, en revenant de la Soul Society, reprennent une vie presque normale, rythmée par les attaques de Hollows. Cependant, de nouveaux personnages font leur apparition : les Arrancars et les Vizards.
-Au premier abord, ils ont l'air d'avoir des compétences similaires : ils peuvent utiliser à la fois des compétences de Shinigami et de Hollow. Cependant, il ne sont pas du même bord, les Arrancars travaillant pour Aizen et les Vizards pour leur propre compte.  En réalité, les Arrancars sont des Hollows ayant des capacités de Shinigami.  Ils possèdent un Zanpakutoh mais n'ont plus de masque (ils n'en possèdent plus que le vestige).  Au contraire, les Vizards sont des Shinigami ayant des pouvoirs de Hollow.  Ils obtiennent leurs pouvoirs en mettant leur propre masque de hollow.
-Commence alors un nouveau défi pour nos héros, chacun s'entraînant dur de son côté pour affronter ces nouveaux ennemis. Kurosaki Ichigo avec les Vizards, ils l'ont entre autres aidé à maîtriser son Hollow intérieur.
+* '''[[Shinigami (Bleach)|Shinigami]]''': ''Shinigami'' (Soul Reapers in the official English editions, Death Gods in most [[fansub|subtitled]] versions) are the [[psychopomp]]s of ''Bleach''. They are souls with inner spiritual power, recruited from the ranks of the residents and nobility of Soul Society. Like all spirits, they cannot be detected by normal humans. ''Shinigami'' use their ''[[zanpakutō]]'', supernatural swords that are the manifestation of their owners' power, to perform soul burials on pluses.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls" /> ''Shinigami'' also use ''zanpakutō'' and magic known as ''[[kidō]]'' to fight their archrivals, the hollows.<ref name="Rukia explains: souls" /> A group of ''shinigami'' known as the '''[[vizard]]''' have obtained hollow powers, gaining removable masks and access to certain hollow abilities.
-Sado Yasutora avec Abarai Renji et Kisuke Uruhara, il veut devenir plus fort physiquement.
-Kuchiki Rukia et Inoue Orihime ensemble à la Soul Society, Inoue veut surtout devenir plus forte mentalement.
-Ishida Uryu avec son père, Ishida Ryuken, il désire, entre autres retrouver ses pouvoirs perdus de Quincy.
-Et, pendant ce temps, l'équipe envoyée par la Soul Society, composée de : Hitsugaya, Matsumoto, Madarame et Ayasegawa veille au grain, combattant les Hollows à la place de Ichigo et guettant le début de la grand bataille.
+* '''[[Hollow (Bleach)|Hollow]]''': The hollows are the major antagonists of ''Bleach''. They are evil spirits who reside in [[Hueco Mundo]] but travel to the living world to feed on the souls of the living and dead alike. Like ''shinigami'', hollows are made of spiritual matter and cannot be detected by ordinary humans. While the majority of hollows can be overcome by the average ''shinigami'', there are some which surpass even the most elite ''shinigami'' in strength. All normal hollows wear white masks,<ref name="Rukia explains: Kanonji" /> but a small group of hollows have broken them, becoming '''[[Hollow (Bleach)#Arrancar|arrancar]]'''. By shattering their masks, these hollows regain the ability to reason, sometimes obtain a humanoid form, and gain access to ''shinigami'' powers.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2006). ''Bleach'', Volume 21.

+[[Image:Quincy (Bleach).jpg|thumb|[[Quincy (Bleach)|Quincy]] with their distinctive bows.]]
+* '''[[Quincy (Bleach)|Quincy]]''': The Quincy are a clan of spiritually aware humans who once fought against the hollows, using bows composed of spiritual energy to slay them.<ref name="Urahara explains: Quincy">Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 5. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 36, 12-14. ISBN 4-08-873335-5</ref> As opposed to ''shinigami'', Quincy absorb and channel energy from their surroundings to fight.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 49, 2. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref> Unlike the ''shinigami'' method of killing hollows which allows the hollow to enter Soul Society, the Quincy technique simply destroys the hollow's soul entirely.<ref name="Urahara explains: Quincy"/> This method has the propensity to shatter the balance of the universe, because when souls are destroyed, the number of souls entering and leaving Soul Society cannot remain equal.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 6. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 46, 1-6. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref> This issue prompted the ''shinigami'' to conduct a campaign to exterminate the Quincy about 200 years before the main storyline.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 6.

If the doll is destroyed, its owner is destroyed as well.

+[[Image:Soul Society.jpg|thumb|A view of ''Seireitei'' in Soul Society.]]
+The [[plane (metaphysics)|planes of existence]] in the ''Bleach'' universe broadly correspond to the life and [[afterlife]] of [[religion|human belief systems]]. The living humans of ''Bleach'' reside in a world resembling present-day Japan; buried souls live in a kind of [[Heaven]] called Soul Society; evil souls are sent to [[Hell]]. Once in Soul Society, a spirit is able to live longer than humans in the living world, with many aging into the thousands of years. Once a spirit dies in Soul Society, its soul is sent back to the living world and reborn as a new human. This provides the two worlds with balance.
-==== [[Ichigo Kurosaki]] ====
+* '''Human world''': The human world of ''Bleach'' is modern Japan, specifically, a fictional area of [[Western Tokyo]] called Karakura Town.<ref name="Karakura">Kubo, Tite (2006). ''Bleach Official Character Book SOULs''. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, 31. ISBN 4-08-874079-3</ref> In this world, Ichigo attends school and fights hollows. Places of note are the high school, the [[Karakura Town#Locations|Urahara Shop]], the river where Ichigo's mother was killed, the cemetery, Karakura Hospital, and Ichigo and Orihime's homes.
-Ichigo Kurosaki (accent tonique sur le premier I), 黒崎 一護, est un jeune lycéen qui a 15 ans au début de la série. Il a toujours été différent des autres, physiquement puisque contrairement à sa famille qui a des cheveux dans les tons marron, les siens sont naturellement roux, mais aussi parce que depuis qu'il est petit, Ichigo voit les [[fantôme]]s. Ce trait n'est pas unique dans sa famille : ses deux sœurs cadettes, Yuzu et Karin, les voient plus ou moins bien également. Son Zanpakuto se nomme Zangetsu (斬月 lit. lune tranchante)
+* '''[[Soul Society]]''': Soul Society consists of an expansive walled city {{nihongo|''Seireitei''|瀞霊廷|Court of Pure Souls}}, in the center and four regions, each with 80 districts, outside of it. The districts outside of the Seireitei are known as the {{nihongo|''Rukongai''|流魂街|Town of Wandering Spirits}} and are the place where non-''shinigami'' and commoners live.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2003). ''Bleach'', Volume 9. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 71, 18. ISBN 4-08-873495-5</ref> The district number of the Rukongai (ranging from 1 to 80) also describes its conditions.<ref name="Renji flashback">Kubo, Tite (2003). ''Bleach'', Volume 11. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 98, 5. ISBN 4-08-873555-2</ref> District 1, the closest to ''Seireitei'', is peaceful and orderly, while the most distant District 80 is filled with criminals and has the poorest living conditions.<ref name="Renji flashback"/> A king resides in another realm within Soul Society. <ref>Kubo, Tite (2006). ''Bleach'', Volume 25. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 223, 07. ISBN 4-08-874289-3</ref>
+* '''[[Hueco Mundo]]''': Hueco Mundo is the area between the human world and Soul Society. Literally meaning "hollow world" (the word ''hueco'' can also mean "hole"), it is where hollows reside, and are undetectable as long as they remain inside. Entrances to Hueco Mundo are created by ripping the dimensional fabric between the two worlds. [[Hueco Mundo]] is divided into three sections. On the surface is a desert-like realm, held in perpetual nighttime and home to the strongest hollows and the [[Hueco Mundo#Las Noches|Las Noches]] palace. Directly underneath is the Forest of Menos, home to general menos and almost all the [[Hollow (Bleach)|Gillian]]. A third layer, below the Forest of Menos, is explored in the anime, but is only mentioned in the manga. <ref>Bleach Episode 147</ref>
+[[Image:Gates_of_hell_bleach.png|thumb|Gates of Hell]]
+* '''Hell''': Hell is the destination of those who committed unforgivably evil acts during their lives in the human world. When a hollow whose mortal soul is too wicked to enter Soul Society is slain by a ''[[zanpakutō]]'', the gates of hell (giant doors held by skeletons) appear and begin to open. A giant, laughing spiritual being with a blade spears the wicked spirit and drags it down into hell.<ref>Kubo, Tite (2002). ''Bleach'', Volume 2. Tokyo, Japan: Shueisha, chapter 12, 8-13. ISBN 4-08-873366-5</ref>
-L'histoire de Bleach s'amorce avec la rencontre entre Rukia Kuchiki et Ichigo Kurosaki.
+''Bleach'' characters move from world to world by several means. ''Shinigami'' open passages between worlds by means of their ''zanpakutō''. Butterflies created during soul burial, called {{nihongo|hell butterflies|地獄蝶|jigoku-chō}}, make these routes safe. Human souls usually cross between planes only through birth into the human world or soul burial by ''shinigami''. Living humans can also use special portals to move between worlds, but this is dangerous. While hollows are portrayed as able to move between planes at will by opening rifts in space, they usually remain in Hueco Mundo due to the risk of discovery in Soul Society or the human world. Encounters between characters crossing realms are a driving plot force in ''Bleach''.
-''Note: le prénom Ichigo peut signifier ''fraise'' ([[wikt:苺|苺]], ou [[wikt:イチゴ|イチゴ]] en romaji, ''strawberry'' en anglais, d'où les jeux de mots dans les titres de chapitres/volumes) en [[japonais]] selon les caractères que l'on emploie pour l'écrire, mais ''Ichi'' en japonais veut dire « un » et également « garçon » et ''go'' veut dire protéger ; ses parents lui ont donné ce nom pour qu'il protège ses proches (enfin, d'après lui).''

-Rukia est la shinigami qui donne ses pouvoirs à Ichigo dans le premier épisode. Par la suite, elle lui apprendra beaucoup de choses sur les ''shinigami'' et les ''hollows'' et deviendra très complice avec lui.
-==== [[Orihime Inoue]] ====
+[[Viz Media]] has released<!--
-Prononciation : Olihimé Ino`oué.<br />
-Orihime est une jeune lycéenne [[orphelin]]e. Son grand frère l'a amenée avec lui quand il s'est enfui de chez lui. Leur mère était une prostituée et leur père était souvent absent. Ils avaient 18 et 3 ans. C'est donc lui qui l'a élevée. Cependant, il est mort trois ans avant le début de la série.
-Elle vit désormais seule. Orihime est une fille qui s'oblige à avoir toujours le sourire et à être joyeuse, pour ne pas inquiéter les autres. Elle est amoureuse d'Ichigo mais sa meilleure amie, Tatsuki Arisawa, dit qu'elle mérite mieux car elle est une "beauté à gros seins".
+PLEASE NOTE: The number of volumes released should not be changed until the official release date. Some retailers ignore the release dates on some titles, and send or sell them early. This does NOT change the official release date.
-Ses pouvoirs se réveillent peu de temps après avoir rencontré Ichigo et apparaissent lorsqu'elle se bat avec un ''hollow'' qui avait pris possesion du corps de Tatsuki.

-Ishida appartient à la race des Quincy. Les Quincy sont des humains chasseurs de ''hollows'' capables de détecter leur présence. Depuis des centaines d'années, une profonde rivalité existe entre ''shinigami'' et Quincy. Leur différence est la manière qu'ils ont de mettre un terme à l'existence des ''hollows''. Tandis que les ''shinigami'' purifient les ''hollows'' avec leur ''zanpakuto'' (rituel de l’enterrement de l’âme) et les envoient au ''Soul Society'', les Quincy les éliminent complètement. Cette façon d'opérer causant un déséquilibre entre le monde des vivants et le monde spirituel, la race des Quincy a fini par être détruite par les ''shinigami'' il y a 200 ans.
-Un des derniers de sa race, Ishida hait plus que n'importe qui le monde des ''shinigami'' qu'il considère comme responsables de la mort de son maître. C'est cette haine envers les ''shinigami'' qui le poussera à vouloir affronter Ichigo afin de le battre, démontrant ainsi que l'existence des ''shinigami'' n'est pas nécessaire dans ce monde.
+The English version of the ''Bleach'' anime premiered on [[Canada]]'s [[YTV (TV channel)|YTV]] channel in the [[Bionix]] program block on [[September 8]], [[2006]]. [[Cartoon Network]]'s [[Adult Swim]] began airing ''Bleach'' the following evening. As of [[October 20]] [[2007]], the show is on hiatus on Adult Swim, being replaced with another Viz series, [[Death Note]]. However, on [[November 10]], [[2007]] at a [[Tandokucon]] panel, [[Kyle Hebert]] stated that they had fallen behind on their dubbing schedule, and that the show should be returning as soon as Death Note finishes its run. According to Adult Swim's T.V. schedule new episodes of ''Bleach'' will return on March 1, 2008 at 21:00 EST. In the UK, ''Bleach'' premieres new episodes every day at 21:00 on [[AnimeCentral]], premiering episode one on [[September 13]], [[2007]]. The English version of ''Bleach'' was nominated for the "best manga" and "best theme" awards at the 2006 American Anime Awards, but did not win either category. It was nominated again in 2007 in the fields of "best manga", "best actor", "best DVD package design", and "best theme", but failed to win any awards.<ref>[http://www.americananimeawards.com/news/pr_finalist.asp NYCC 07: The top five finalists for the first American Anime Awards] on American Anime Awards.

-Cependant, il coopéreront à plusieurs reprises, la première fois étant à cause du lâcher de Hollow de Uryuu qui a causé une réaction en chaîne désastreuse.

-==== [[Yasutora Sado]] ====
+;Databases
-Yasutora Sado ({{nji|泰虎 茶渡}}), ou Chad, comme tout le monde l'appelle, est un lycéen peu bavard. Tout comme Orihime, il va développer un pouvoir aux côtés d'Ichigo. Il est né au [[Japon]] mais a vécu au [[Mexique]] avec son abuelo (son grand-père). Il a promis de ne jamais se battre pour lui-même ; c'est avec une promesse où Ichigo et lui acceptèrent de se protéger mutuellement qu'il devint vraiment ami avec lui. Il possède un pouvoir, formant comme une armure rouge et noire sur son bras droit, lui conférant une force incroyable concentrée dans ce bras.

-==== [[Kon]] ====
+{{Bleach info}}
-Kon est la mascotte du manga. Il s'agit d'une âme artificielle, ou "mod soul", fabriquée au ''Soul Society''. Elles étaient programmées au combat pour aider les ''shinigami'', mais des défaillances les poussèrent à en arrêter la fabrication et à détruire les spécimens existants. Kon parvint à en réchapper, caché parmi de simples âmes uniquement destinées à occuper les corps inertes des ''shinigami''.
+{{Series in Weekly Shonen Jump}}
-Kon est donc avant tout un personnage torturé par son statut "d'erreur" que tous ont voulu éradiquer, avant de devenir un élément comique de Bleach. Son nom vient de ''kaizuku konpato'' qui veut dire âme modifiée : c'est Ichigo qui lui a donné ce diminutif, d'ailleurs Kon lui a dit à ce moment de l'appeler Kai pour kaizuku mais Ichigo trouvait ça trop cool pour lui. Il est aussi appelé Bostaf par Yuzu (une des sœurs d'Ichigo).

-== Note ==
-L'origine du nom ''Bleach'' est soit un hommage au groupe de rock ''Nirvana'' dont l'auteur du manga est fan et dont le premier album s'intitulait Bleach, soit une allusion à la couleur des cheveux du personnage, roux ce qui est rare chez les japonais et lui vaut le surnom de décoloré...
-Une autre théorie viendrait du fait que "Bleach" signifie blanchir en anglais: en outre mis à part le blanc du crâne (des Hollows par exemple), le blanc est une des marques de fabriques des couvertures de la série, qui sont souvent faites de la façon suivante: un personnage pose sur un décor blanc. La seule exception étant le tome 15, où du noir s'ajoute au blanc du décor du personnage de Kira Izuru, shinigami très torturé.
-Tout ceci ne reste que des théories: Tite Kubo n'a jamais expliqué la raison du nom.{{référence nécessaire}}
