Overview
Edit
Karakura Town is the home town of Ichigo Kurosaki. It seems to be a small city with an average population that resembles the real world. Humans that live in Karakura Town are unaware of the ghosts and spiritual forces that live there.
Sōsuke Aizen seeks to destroy Karakura Town to make a copy of the Ōken. Karakura Town is referred to as District 3600 by the Shinigami[1] and is situated on the current jūreichi (重霊地, Important Spirit Ground) - the point in the Human World that possesses the greatest concentration of spiritual beings[2].
HistoryEdit
Approximately 100 years ago Kisuke Urahara, Tessai Tsukabishi and the eight Visored fled Soul Society to escape their sentence. They were soon joined by Yoruichi Shihōin.[3] Urahara opened up a small shop in the outskirts of town, the Urahara Shop, where he is aided by Tessai Tsukabishi. While it is no more than an average store on the outside, it is a shop that caters to Shinigami needs. Underneath the shop Urahara built a vast training area to be used by himself, his employees and some of his clients. The Visored made their home in an old run down warehouse. They too constructed a training ground where they trained to take charge of their inner Hollows and later to prolong the period of their Hollowfication.
