Summary
Kurosaki Ichigo died in a hospital bed two minutes before midnight on the eve of his twenty-seventh birthday.
Hatake Kai sat up with a gasp at 12:01.
Unwilling to have his afterlife controlled by persons and Machiavellian plots unknown, Ichigo (with the help of Kurakara's friendly, neighborhood evil-scientist) ends his sojourn in the land of the living decades before anybody expects, on his own terms.
Intent on legitimizing his shinigami status so that no one can question his rise to captaincy or denounce it as unearned (phrases like 'not a real Shinigami' and 'only a substitute' make him twitch), he enrolls under a new name with a new look into the Shinigami Arts Academy.
With Zangetsu and his Inner Hollow to back him up, Ichigo (now Kai) is fully prepared to take the Academy by storm. Only one question remains: will any part of it be left standing by the time he graduates?
