History
He first shows up at dinnertime, drifting in behind Ichigo Kurosaki, who tries to wave him off. Karin's flat refusal to believe in ghosts, even ones she can plainly see, sends a chill through the spirit. He surfaces again in Ichigo's bedroom while Rukia is at work, and when she starts the Konso rite he begins to panic, pleading not to be cast down to Hell. Rukia calms him with the promise that he is only bound for Soul Society, and he thanks her as the ritual carries him away.
