Ran'Tao (蘭島, Rantao) is a former Shinigami researcher who oversaw the project responsible for the creation of the Bount. Ran'Tao is a slender and youthful-looking woman with thin gold-rimmed glasses, long brown hair usually done up with a hairpin with a large bang falling to the left over her forehead, and brown eyes. She wears red lipstick and a standard shihakushō underneath a lab coat. In order to seal Ran'Tao's powers away, a seal resembling overlapping kanji was inscribed into her back. Due to the Artificial Soul that was based on Ran'Tao's Soul being the template for Yoshino Sōma,[1] multiple individuals have mistaken her for the latter.
Bleach
Ichigo Kurosaki is an ordinary high schooler—until his family is attacked by a Hollow, a corrupt spirit that seeks to devour human souls. It is then that he meets a Soul Reaper named Rukia Kuchiki, who gets injured while protecting Ichigo's family from the assailant. To save his family, Ichigo accepts Rukia's offer of taking her powers and becomes a Soul Reaper as a result. However, as Rukia is unable to regain her powers, Ichigo is given the daunting task of hunting down the Hollows that plague their town. However, he is not alone in his fight, as he is later joined by his friends—classmates Orihime Inoue, Yasutora Sado, and Uryuu Ishida—who each have their own unique abilities. As Ichigo and his comrades get used to their new duties and support each other on and off the battlefield, the young Soul Reaper soon learns that the Hollows are not the only real threat to the human world.
