Ichigo Kurosaki

As a joyful and highly emotional child, Ichigo Kurosaki was not shy, but rather an open and affectionate "mama's boy" who considered his mother, Masaki, the center of his world. At age four, he joined a karate dojo where he would openly cry whenever he lost a match, only to instantly light up with a bright smile the moment he saw his mother arrive to pick him up. Guided by his father's lesson that his name meant "to protect," young Ichigo proudly dedicated himself to shielding his mother and his younger twin sisters. However, this cheerful disposition shattered at age nine when he was tricked by the Hollow Grand Fisher and witnessed his mother's tragic death. The immense guilt and trauma transformed him into a socially detached. He's 9 years old, 3rd grade.
