Question: Bleach Anime Does Ichigo's first spirit friend get saved at all!?
In Episode 1, Ichigo has been talking to this brown haired spirit who is a girl (he brings her flowers)!. Does she ever get saved in any future episodes by Rukia or another soul reaper!? Or does she continue to linger on and the story just completely forgets about her!?Www@Enter-QA@Com
Answers:
In both the anime and the manga, the spirit friend only appeared once during the first episode (or first chapter for manga readers) and has been completely forgotten since then!. There are also no signs of her appearing again since the story is almost at its climax (as far as the manga is concerned) and reintroducing her will not really have much effect since Ichigo has already met so many spirits even before and after meeting her!. So I guess its safe to assume that one of the Shinigamis in Karakura Town must have already given her a soul burial and sent her to Soul Society!.
On a side note, the spirit friend's role in the manga was actually much shorter!. She only appeared in one scene at the the beginning when Ichigo beat-up the group of boys that knocked-out the flowers he gave her!. She wasn't there when Ichigo first saw the Hollow because Ichigo's first encounter with the Hollow (and Rukia as well) in the manga happened in his house when the Hollow began attacking his family!. There was actually no scene where the Hollow began destroying the building (which people thought was a bomb attack) and started running after Ichigo and his spirit friend - it was an anime-only scene!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I've wondered this myself, but I think she's either saved (in the manga probably, since I haven't read it completely as yet) or features in a future arc!.
The anime did seem to leave off as to what became of her!.!.!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
