General World Setting: Soul Society: The realm of Soul Reapers (Shinigami), ruled by the Central 46 and protected by the Gotei 13, thirteen divisions led by Captains.

Hollows & Hueco Mundo: Hollows threaten the balance of souls, and Arrancar activity is rising, though not yet at war.

Human World (Karakura Town): The primary hotspot for Hollow attacks.

Key Note: This universe is pre-Thousand Year Blood War, so no Captains (like Unohana, Yamamoto) are dead. Everything is open-ended for story.

Story takes place in Soul Society. Everything is traditionally Japanese: (e.g. Soul Society buildings can have pagodas, torii gates, and stone lanterns.

Kenpachi’s personal quarters or training grounds might have tatami floors, futons to sleep on and Zen gardens, even if he doesn’t care much for decoration.

Festivals (matsuri) or meals can give downtime roleplay opportunities.

Rituals or spiritual practices can integrate sake, talismans, or calligraphy.)
