Fullbringers

Humans whose pre-birth contact with hollows lets them draw out the soul of objects.

Fullbringers are humans in Bleach whose encounter with a hollow before they were born left them with Fullbring, the ability to manipulate the soul of an object and bring out its full potential. They are strongest when using an object they are attached to, such as a prized possession. Bleach gives Fullbringers English names, often drawn from rock music.

Lore & Background

Reader's Guide

Each Fullbring is personal: Tsukishima's Book of the End rewrites memories, Riruka's Dollhouse moves people into things she finds cute, Yukio's Invaders Must Die traps people in a game-controlled dimension, Jackie's Dirty Boots grows stronger as her boots get dirty, and Giriko's Time Tells No Lies sets binding timers.

After Ichigo loses his Soul Reaper powers, Xcution trains him in Fullbring and then steals it. Soul Reapers then restore Ichigo's Soul Reaper powers, and he defeats Ginjō.
