Ichigo sees his father as a Soul Reaper in the anime Bleach episode 32 titled "Stars and the Stray." In this episode, Ichigo's father, Isshin Kurosaki, reveals his true identity as a former Soul Reaper captain.
Original: no you will see the answer to your question. Starting from episode n° 206 yep his dad a soul reaper look @ episode 111 on 17:03 its REAL New: Ichigo finds out that his father is a soul reaper at the end of Chapter 397
Ichigo's father is the Soul Reaper Isshin Kurosaki.
Because at first Gangu had a brother named Kain.His brother was a Soul Reaper and was being murdered by another Soul Reaper in the Soul Society. Ichigo was a SoulReaper,he insulted Ichigo in bleach.
because he's ichigo... he is just a substitute soul reaper.
Ichigo is the only soul reaper with a compressed bankai.
Hadn't got that far in Bleach yet.... Thanks for the screamer..... Have you watched Death Note yet?
No Ichigo considers himself a substitue soul reaper, however in all sense he is a vizard not an arancar
When he is in the human world no, but he can change anytime he wants in the soul society.
A visored is a soul reaper who obtaind hollow powers so yes
No one, he was born a soul reaper but deserted the soul society to go to the world of the living where he met Ichigo's mom. If they found him and he hadn't come to fight Aizen then he would probably be dead because the Shinigami would kill him for desertion.
There's no set episode, although they technically get her back when Ulquiorra dies (episode 272 onwards) as from that moment there's no one to oppose her friends taking her back, as most of the Espada are either dead or with Aizen in the fake Karakura Town.
As far as we know, only Ichigos father is from the soul society. They mentioned he was a former captain, and that would explain why Ichigo and karin can see ghosts. I don't believe that their mother was a soul reaper.
