Affinity #10 - Shiba Siblings

The Shiba Clan is more important than you know, but in the very beginning - there were 3 Shiba clan members introduced: Kaien, Kukaku, & Ganju. Today we will be talking about Kukaku & Ganju, the two Shiba clan members that first met & helped out Ichigo in his attempts to thwart Rukia's execution from taking place. In the first place, Kukaku and Ganju made it possible for Ichigo and his crew to enter the Soul Society. However, the problem at first was Ichigo and Ganju's comedic rivalry. Ganju detests Shinigami, but somehow Ichigo found acceptance later on. Kukaku was eager to help out Ichigo & his group despite Ganju's foolishness - meaning Kukaku probably knew who Ichigo was before they even met - dating back to Isshin's time. However this has yet to be resolved as Isshin doesn't go by the Shiba surname anymore, leaving me to suspect that Kukaku & Ganju may know of Isshin's marriage to Quincy, Masaki Kurosaki. That is only speculation, but I'm straying from what I was talking about. Kukaku is a beauty and is with Ganju's assistance, Ichigo found his way to the Soul Society encountering various enemies. These two are close, Kukaku fearing for Ganju's life and for me personally - Ganju is pretty weak. He is seen with the Fullbringers earlier, but we have to see what he is capable of, but we do know he is buffed up. I want to see more of the Shiba clan later on as they play a role in Ichigo's life and his resemblance to Kaien Shiba.

I hope you enjoyed today's Affinity post. Be sure to send me emails on your match ups. Until then, you all stay classy now!
