A scene featuring father-son duo Isshin and Ichigo in the anime Bleach

  • Director: Noriyuki Abe
    Country: Japan
    Airtime: 5/10/2004 – 27/3/2012
    Genre: action, adventure, fantasy
    Status: complete
    Ichigo's relationship with his father, Isshin, which appears at the very beginning of the Bleach anime is quite strange. They are constantly engaged in physical fights at really intense rates. Isshin is a single father throughout this anime, and it is only later that Isshin is revealed that he himself was once a powerful Soul Reaper.

    It's clear that all their seemingly pointless fights are actually Isshin's way of training his son to fight with an understanding of the fate he will inevitably face. Isshin is a selfless father, and a character who shows fans how a father can support their child to be the best version of themselves. Bleach has made a good impression as a good anime that makes viewers appreciate father-son affection.
