At Karakura Town, reports popped up about a crazy man dressed in white. Either he is the above-average student, Ichigo Kurosaki, the flamboyant Ezekiel Nakamura, the honorable and soft-spoken, Author Fujimoto or the violent, battle-crazy Diego Rodriguez.
Either way, things would never be the same when these four personas stepped into the world of the supernatural.
