Ichigen was a very empathetic, wise man, who was popular with all the villagers. He was well known for his profound advice, and many villagers sought him out when troubled by anything as simple as a broken heart, to even business advice. However, he was known to sometimes ramble about things no one understood, and often viewed as "too smart".

History
As a young man, Ichigen cared for his grandfather, who at the time, ran the family's swordsmanship school, Miwa Meijin School of Swordsmanship. Ichigen's grandfather, an "exceedingly strict" man, also reared Ichigen to follow in the family's footsteps. Despite his grandfather's strictness, Ichigen still loved him. After graduating high school, Ichigen left his parents' home and entered Japan's top educational system, which is never named. He studied and earned a diploma in econmics, and then travelled to America to earn a business administration degree. For a bit, he was a successful employee one of the world's major brokerage firms. However, due to his poor, declining health, he returned to Japan.

For years, Ichigen and his "son" Kuroh Yatogami lived secluded in the mountains with just a few villagers as their neighbors. Before they had met, Ichigen saved and adopted the 5 year old Yatogami Kuroh laying on the floor somewhere in the mountains barely alive and nearly dying. He took Kuroh with him so he could become as his vassal, eventually teaching him skills such as swordsmanship. he is a poet and Kuroh would record his teachings on voice recorder which he would listen to for advice. However, one day, he would tell Kuroh to meet the next Colorless King and determine whether he is good or evil; should he be evil, he must be killed. Shortly after, Ichigen died.
